As someone who's been involved with combat sports his whole life and in the past 6-8 years I've also been more focused on building muscle and strength, I can be the first person to say how hard it...
Listen, all people are saying is if the only thing you do is add test you won’t succeed. You will likely weigh about the same. You might add some water weight, you might Recomp a couple lbs, you...
You know one of my 3 jobs is????? Training fighters 😂 😂 😂 😂. Mainly strength and conditioning and making sure ppl make there weight class or successfully move up or down a weight class
It doesn't matter how much you eat, if you're not gaining you're not eating enough and it's as simple as that. I'm 50 lb heavier than you and I also box lift weights do all kinds of extreme...
Like mentioned it's food and training/activity. I couldn't build when I was younger because I would eat 3000 calories a day but then play basketball for hours and lift weights. As I got older and...
Hey man, totally get it. For cutting supplements I like Lean Edge, Cordarine, XPG FL7, XPG Napalm, Reduce XT, and more.
But for you coming off a break I'd approach it different. I would suggest...
I take 10-20gm a day. The reason I take 20 is because of the brain health stuff, I don't notice much if any difference tho. Creatine is super cheap and it seems like on paper higher doses offer...
I have heard that at those doses it's better for mental clarity/cognition. I don't notice much difference there, but there's also studies around sleep deprivation and high dose creatine. I feel...
It’s so good man; I wrote that because it just blew me away.
A fellow could take a 200mg tablet of Equate caffeine or a stiff cup of coffee, some AlphaGPC, and Neurogize XT and basically have the...
After a deload AFTER your heaviest week is pretty ideal for someone new to it.
You go really hard, rest up the week of contest and then send it at the meet that weekend.
Thanks for the tips, I appreciate it. I'll start 5/3/1 in a couple of weeks. Finishing up some unilateral training now that will hopefully help me stay injury free as I start to push weights. Is...
Most people can handle some benching twice per week (one heavier, one lighter and more volume). Squats and deadlifts it’s usually better to stick to a lighter variant if you want a second exposure...
Yeah I know it’s definitely more practicing the lifts than building muscle. My PR lifts are bench 335 1rm, squat 365, deadlift 415. I’m a little ways off all those now, but I’m not a newbie either.
With 4ish months until the meet, name of the game is really going to be working on specificity to get the most out of the muscle you already have to put up the biggest total. Can build a little...
There are many benefits but I choose preworkout in heavy lifting days only. 2 caps. Some people here have experimented with 3-6 caps. I unfortunately have not been able to do that yet but I will...
MCC is better for endurance IMO
Creatine HCL is going to act more like regular creatine with a little less water weight.
I love MCC . It’s great for adding reps in the 8-12 rep range or delaying...
There aren’t any actual weight classes. It’s pretty informal. They just weigh everyone in and if I’m 220 and deadlift 440 they’ll give me a 2.0. If someone else weighs 150 and deadlifts 375...
My local gym does a charity powerlifting competition every year in December and I've never participated. I'm thinking I might do it this year and I'll have about 3 months to train for it.
Bench...
