  1. Bench press issues

    Strength is a skill. If you want to be stronger on something, one of the best things you can do is do that thing consistently and often. In this case, I would bb bench instead of db bench, or at least do it first in your routine. Do bb bench consistently for a few years, always learning and...

  4. I’m just not that strong (yet)!

    Good luck. The best advice I can give is make your weekly plan something you can stick to on the busiest of weeks, not what you hope to accomplish on a week where everything goes your way. 5/3/1 can be run on a 2/3/4 or more week per day split. So pick the split that matches your needs and go...

  6. Tell Us What You Would Like to See From SNS & CEL (2023 Edition)

    Not to stir the pot but I at least think the EFSA removing its approval of titanium dioxide as a food additive may play a part in this: https://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/news/titanium-dioxide-e171-no-longer-considered-safe-when-used-food-additive
  7. ways to suppress chronically super elevated cortisol besides / in addition to transdermal β-AET?

    Sorry to hear about your friend. Benfotiamine may be of use here, some data suggests it not only helps with vitamin B1 loss from alcohol consumption, but may also help with alcohol dependence overall: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23992649/ I know that a blunted cortisol response during a...

    What are we considering recovery? The research definition is would be more that one has regained their ability to match their previous performance. This would be independent of muscle soreness or perceived recovery. This is more objective, in that it related to objective performance. Most...

  11. An Odd Question

    I think a lot of people tend to practice conditional love, which is where they love someone with an expectation of some kind. When what is really needed at the core is unconditional love, the idea of loving and accepting someone as they are now without an expectation of change. To contrast this...
  12. Lifting Belt

    If using for powerlifting like squat and pull, I would go with a 10mm or 13mm belt. 13mm is pretty dense, so a 10mm is preferred by most lifters. I have a 13mm myself.
  13. Lifting Belt

    I have a titan belt from like 10 years ago that still works great. I would go with inzer based on overall longevity and feedback in the market over the years. I dont know who is really still in the game besides inzer and titan, both are good to go. I prefer a single prone belt myself, that is...
  14. Anyone Ran DHB as aTest Base with Trest..??

    It using trest ace, you could dose daily. If using a longer ester trest, you could dose twice a week. I hope I understood what you were asking in this case.
  15. Anyone Ran DHB as aTest Base with Trest..??

    DHB would not classify as a "Test" base. In fact, trest already fills the role of a "test" base in this case. This is if we define a "test" base as a compound providing androgenic stimulation and estrogen to the body.
