  1. Do you regret that you didnt stay natty?

    I regret not learning how to lift properly before I did. I think the first time I tried a cycle I was 24 or 25. Barely made it to a 300 lb bench and 400 lb deadlift. Off cycle I'd usually get stuck around a 250 bench and 375 deadlift. I actually gave up for a few years because it seemed...
  2. High Blood Pressure Issue

    If you want to lower blood pressure then you need to: Eat more saturated fats. Stop cutting salt out of your diet. No carbs, especially sugar, or maybe even fasting from food completely for a day or two. No stimulants. Get a full nights of uninterrupted sleep. Stop smoking.
  3. What do you think of SD stack with LMG?

    I do not subscribe to the idea that fat is bad, or that there is any appreciable difference between "simple" cabs and "complex" carbs. I just eat until I'm full, and if I want to drop a lb or two I just fast for a day.
  4. What do you think of SD stack with LMG?

    Beef and Potatoes pretty much every night. Cheap, delicious, easy to prepare. Just have to remember to take it out of the freezer in the morning so it is thawed by the time I get home from work. It just doesn't taste anywhere near as good if I have to defrost it in the microwave.
  5. What do you think of SD stack with LMG?

    Yeah, thats 30mg LMG and 10 MG SD.
  6. What do you think of SD stack with LMG?

    Yeah, I record all my lifts every workout and I can post them when I'm done. I just started though, like 5 days ago, so it won't be for a while.
  7. What do you think of SD stack with LMG?

    I just started a SD and LMG stack. I am taking 15mg of SD and 50mg of LMG ED. It seemed like a logical combo since LMG is not a 17aa PH. According to tuned sports, a common dosage of SD is 20-30mg and LMG is 75-100mg, so that ratio seems odd. Are you sure its not 10mg SD and 30mg LMG per cap?
  8. Recomp sd/stano cycle plan

    I just started Superdrol + Stano, but the Stano is making me jittery/anxious. I checked my blood pressure and heart rate and it was around 118/77 60bps during the day, but I felt completely out of breath for several hours after taking it even at just 350mg a day split in 2 doses. I didn't take...
  9. Can't Lose Weight On Low-Carb Diet?!

    A low carb diet may help cut cravings, but it won't allow you to defy the laws of thermodynamics. Calories In - Calories Out = Weight Gain/Loss. If you aren't losing fat then you're eating too much. Also, keep in mind that there are things that can effect your weight besides fat. How much water...
  10. Cholesterol Levels

    Adding on to what whacked said, cholesterol is what repairs your arteries. Steroids increase blood volume, thus more wear and tear on your arteries and more cholesterol needed to make the repairs. The problem comes in when the cholesterol gets stuck in your arteries, but that will only happen if...
  11. Getting lean and mean or big and bad

    Personally, I gauge progress by strength, not weight, for that very reason. If you hit a plateau then eating too little could possibly be the cause, but if you're already making reasonable strength gains then adding more calories is just going to make you fat. You just have to be patient, keep...
  12. Website to connect with local farmers for beef/eggs/etc

    In my opinion, there is no real reason to buy grass fed beef. The differences are insignificant and grain finished beef from a local supermarket is significantly cheaper, especially when you wait for sales which happen fairly often. If you have lots of extra cash lying around, go for it I guess...
  13. beef

    A lot of stores have value-price ground beef, less than $2 a pound even when it isn't on sale where I live. If you're paying much more than that I would keep looking.
  14. fasting?

    I fasted all the time when I dropped weight, sometimes for 72+ hours, followed by a huge meal. Lost 3-4lbs a week and never lost any strength in the gym. You just have to learn to not find comfort in food and the fat just melts off...
  15. grip strength

    I use one of the adjustable "super grippers". Adjustable between ~70 to ~350 lbs of resistance, or something close to that. Grip is never my weak point as long as I remember to use it once or twice a week. The cheapest price I found was for $30 shipped. If the pinch grip exercises are working...
