Kenpo is Volatile!

355 x 3 is awesome! Nice job KP!
 
Weight 167/175

Thanks all for the congrats!

My sweet spot for Volatile is 1.5 to 2 scoops. This dose gives me the desired energy and focus. I wonder how the other flavors taste?

It's 1 degree outside this morning and the gym was 42. I love winter and hope it hangs around all year - NOT!

More PRs? You're on fire!! The Berry Eruption flavor is great too but my preference is for the Tropical Punch right now. Delicious!!
 
Somehow I missed the PR this morning. I should've been looking for it based on what you've been putting out...

I'm starting to see more of the bottom of the Volatile tub. Today was a 1.5 scoop day!

Strength is really increasing from the Osta but the energy level is from the Volatile!

Nice PR! I love reverse grip bench, I like to do them at the end of a chest workout sometimes for a burnout.

Thanks Pete. This indeed burned my chest out! I like how reverse grips take the strain off the shoulders.

I need to try reverse grip one of these days. I do a ton of incline press too. I've seen huge improvements in my chest since I switched from flat
 
Nice volume mark! Have you tried REV with DB's? I wonder how those feel.

Me too. I wish I would've done more incline before.
 
Any way I could get you to review this on bb dot com? Pretty please!!

Thanks Thomas. Haven't tried them. Rocking into place with heavy DBs always makes me feel unsafe.

I'll do that. I just have to find my old login to BB as I don't use that site anymore.

No, thank you for allowing me to log Volatile. It's been added to my PWO rotation cabinet!

No rotation required except between flavors of Volatile! Lol ;)

Try resting them on your knees and falling back with your knees supporting them.

If you haven't already, that is.

I use this technique but always feel unsafe during both the "mount" and "dismount". Lol. Since I train alone I'm always looking to be safe.
