  3. ive hit the plateau....HELP!!!

    Man! You lost me... But given the bundle of three letters as your credentials I expect you know what you're talking about. I don't follow the switching of the main lift. But I have 21 years on you which means I learned all this stuff - well - right about when you were born. Not a knock on...
  4. Had a minor heart attack saturday.

    Well, good luck. I know as well as you do - an MCI hurts like hell. They had 4 amps of morphine in me while I was being admitted to the hospital. At the time I wanted to pass out. LOL - I blamed mine on anchovies in the pizza. But it was genes... Oh - question? My cardiologist asked me...
  5. Bench press max

    Yeah... Throws might give you a quick boost at your level. As mentioned, 50% of 1RM, 8-12 sets, 3 explosive reps (might use a plate-loaded machine for this), 1 minute between sets. As the name implies, you literally want to throw the weight (without letting go). You should feel it pull you...

  8. Had a minor heart attack saturday.

    I had a heart attack November 30, 2010. I was traveling on business in DC and was taken from my hotel to Arlington Hospital - where they cathed me and put in 4 stents. They asked about AAS use - luckily I've never used the stuff beyond a one-month treatment of Test-P that was prescribed for a...
  9. trying to counteract SSRI-induced libido lost

    I had the issues related with Paxil. Switched to Lexapro and lowered my dosages - 40mg down to 10mg per day. Drive returned, but I could not climax. Doctor prescribed 4 weekly Test-Prop injections (200 mg) followed by Androgel. The Test-Prop "kicked" whatever need to be kicked - as I did not...
