MASStering gains with FINAFLEX

[Johnold]

Ah I see. IMO I think that Cortisol supplements make a great body and composition.

 

[Montego1]

Maslinic said aids in protein turnover therefore it keeps your body in a more anabolic state.....while in an anabolic state cortisol levels are at their lowest, so in theory yes it should at LEAST aid in keeping cortisol levels in the low range.

That's very good to know. Excited!


On an off note, I notice that nutraplanet has the Revolution PCT on a "BLOWOUT" sale. FINAFLEX isn't getting rid of Revolution PCT are they?

To the best of my knowledge no.

 

[Johnold]

Just asking cause whenever they use "insane BLOWOUT" it makes me think that a product might be coming to an end. Or maybe pushing sales. I don't know.

Or maybe we are just awesome

I'ma go with that. I was told that was their best seller. I'd like to try it soon.

It has been one of our top sellers for quite a while yes.

You get 50mg of arimistane per cap (60 caps per bottle) wich is the best bang for your buck out there. Then the added goodies are just icing on the cake.

 

[Johnold]

That's what I'm saying! Can't beat it!

Got a little overwhelmed with stuff I had to get wrapped up at the house. Never made it to the gym. Did some TRX work. 3x8 for every muscle group. Then had a small dinner.

6 oz steak
Small bowl of baby spinach and a hb egg with 1/2 tbsp dressing
1/4 cup quinoa.

Gonna finish up as early as possible. This rodeo is getting started early tomorrow.

I love using the TRX. When the TRX first came out I thought man that looks easy. Nope! My mom trains people from their homes with a TRX and Kettle Bells; I love both.

I agree. I love the trx and am a huge fan of kettle bells as well. I like the trx because I can take it anywhere and get some sort of workout in if I can't get to a gym v

 

[pete8407]

I have the rip 60 suspension system. I use it all the time. Nice arm workout, I need to get me some bands. It seems like everyone is using them

I think bands are an excellent addition to weights. I also use them a lot for movements that cause pain when I'd normally use weights.

Very true! I also like to travel with looped bands (80-120lbs) and adjustable bands with handles (40-100lbs).

 

[gymwrenchwv]

Been a long day. Not really just that feeling of dragging out for some reason. Grub is on though. Lookin good right now. Pics and menu up shortly

 

[gymwrenchwv]

Dinner

4 oz talapia. Baked
1/4 cup quinoa
1/4 cup brown rice

Not pictured a big bowl of salad

 

[RegisterJr]

I'd want a little more meat than that...

What sauce did we go with?

 

[gymwrenchwv]

I didn't season them. They come in those bake bags so I just bake and add hot sauce. Yeah I usually eat 2 fillets but only had one in the freezer. Had my fill of hb eggs today as well or I woulda threw one on my plate. I can always eat more lol but it was filling enough for me to not be hungry. I also have another very early morning so it'll be shake and bed time soon too

 

[RegisterJr]

Looks good though!

 

[snagencyV2.0]

we already know this, chester

You didn't have to ask this... he is mr hot sauce lol

I was asking the brand. That looked like too much to be the a**kicker.

 

[pete8407]

Nice tilapia, I always have a bag of them in the freezer

I like'm too. I recently switched it up to flounder, but you can never go wrong with a little fish to season your hot sauce.

Does anyone sell flounder like they do tilapia in the big frozen bags?

 

[RegisterJr]

I get them from SAMs. Same price for tilapia, flounder, and cod (I think).

 

[bean5er]

Eeeew. Nastiest fish out there. :nono:

Cod, halibut is what I eat but I've yet to eat fish since my last prep. Trying to keep it that way. Sushi is another story it's my new favorite re feed

 

[Montego1]

Sam's club has saved quite a few bucks for me over the year. When you have three kids running around eating up all your food, those giant ass value bags and tubs of snacks and fruit come in very handy lol.

Also it's nice to buy flank steak ten lbs at a time lol.

 

[Johnold]

You guys are making me hungry.

Don't judge. Yeah, I bought one of those STUFZ (as seen on TV) burger patty makers . Thought it would've been fun to mess with. I'll let you guys know how the burgers come out.

We buy almost everything there. Chicken is 1.72-1.77/lb when buying it by the case.

I kinda want one too, but I'm against ordering from info-mercials.

Oh ya! Checking that out this week! Thanks man

 

[Johnold]

I didn't buy it online or from calling.

They sell it at walgreens. It was priced at $9.95. 10 bucks wasn't bad for something I'm 80% sure that'll work well. I'm sure it'll take trial and error several times to master burger meat and filling ratios. Seems pretty straight forward.

I wanted burgers this weekend. And I never buy (as seen on TV) things. Shrugs.

Same here, love sushi.

I know Snags will agree with you on the Tilapia lol

I see blue and black cod in the grocery store, do you know if it is all the same Justin?

Any one know what Basa fish is?

...I like some sole as it isnt very fishy.

 

[snagencyV2.0]

I know tilapia isn't the best

understatement..

but I like the taste

yep
the taste does not reflect the dietary preference that the tilapia fish consumes, surely....

Snags, Why is tilapia so bad and what in your opinion is the best fish or your favorite?

Was just cholula

Good shoulder session in the gym today. Routine posted ASAP

I believe Snags has said in the past they feed off sh*t of other fish.

 

[Montego1]

I believe Snags has said in the past they feed off sh*t of other fish.

If they are "Wild Caught" they primarily eat vegetation and are lower in contaminants then most fish I.e. mercury. So if wild caught go for it....

But if they are farm raised then the chances of them being used as a pooper scooper is very likely.

Very hard to find wild caught tilapia and if you do it's not worth the price anyways.

Was unaware of all these traits linked to talapia

 

[bean5er]

Yes Google it. Almost all frozen bags sold are farmed. I'm fact most fish served I'm chain restaurant s is farmed. Srsly Google farmed tilapia and prepare to never eat it again

I eat talapia because it doesn't have a real strong fishy taste. Honestly I don't like fish at all. At the same time I don't wanna be eating the bottom of the barrel. So time to make some changes to my fish selection.
