  6. Least effective supplements

    I am 37 years old, other than the staples (creatine, beta alanine, citrulline, and preworkouts) Anabeta Elite/Erase were the first supps that made a noticeable difference. I have been taking stuff on and off for almost 20 years. If you include fat burning supps the old NYC was the only real...
  7. Cissus and strained pec

    Never torn anything and don't want to. I am a pretty good bencher for my body type and would like to stay that way. I have been taking it easy but am getting itchy to start ramping up my bench training.
  8. Cissus and strained pec

    I am not sure what exactly I am straining, but I have a strained pec where the shoulder tie in is and I am wondering if cissus will help and at what dosage. I am a long armed bencher and have had this problem on and off at times.
  9. Tossing Weight With Torobestia: Powerlifting Log

    I have had my shair of pec strains and I am dealing with one now that just won't get right I have never had one from doing close grips though. I usually get them from trying to squeeze out heavy reps. This was the first one I ever got on a single.
  10. Joe's comeback training log

    Standing strict shoulder presses 135x5, 155x5, 155x8. I was going to go heavier but their are these arms that extend off the top of the hammer strength power rack I was training on that I kept hitting. I had to walk so far back I was not thinking it was good idea to go up in weight. chins...
  11. Joe's comeback training log

    I have not been feeling well all week and called out of work on Wed which means I did not train. My comp bench from edge fitness is now assembled and in the gym and kicks ass. Workout not so much. My pec started giving me trouble again, it may have something to do with not being properly...
  12. Assistance work for DL

    On elitefts there was a series of videos on the deadlift. Check them out. One was the GM. He uses a SS Bar to to do them but when I do them strict I use a regular bar.
  13. Assistance work for DL

    If your back is weak and you are weak off the floor pull standing on a 2-3" block, SLDL's and SLDL's standing on a 2-3 inch block. Do your GM's strict for a while, and do not dot do them so they are hip/glute exercises, but low back/exercises. Reverse Hypers, Hypers with bands are all good...
  14. Article: Hi Rep Olympic Lifts And Crossfit

    After watching the crossfit games on ESPN one day I realized that the guys on TV did not get that way by doing Crossfit. That is my real issue with it. They were pretty strong and highly conditioned. From what I have seen with crossft there is no real strength component to it. That is what I...

  16. Joe's comeback training log

    I would love to see that myself lol. I am actually progressing nicely now, I think in the long run sumo will benefit me more. As far as squatting, I think I am going to continue to box squat raw for some time and see where it gets me. Sometimes when you don't think about things they sneak up...

  18. Tossing Weight With Torobestia: Powerlifting Log

    Nice log. Nice lifting and well though out training cycle. A couple things, I agree with your idea on training to failure. I was a mid 600 puller and if I ever had to grind one out or miss one in the gym I considered that a bad day. Even if I got it. It as tough on the CNS. Also Paul is...
