  1. The Mind Muscle Connection???

    It may not be about wording. As you said, you've done this for a while. The mind connects to the muscles.through synapses.amd myelin sheaths and all that. By doing super SLO reps your friend will begin developing the hardwiring that will allow him to feel the mind muscle connection, but it...
  2. The Mind Muscle Connection???

    Super SLO reps (30s up, 30 s down) help cultivate the mind muscle connection and flexing. Also, I like to do reps w my eyes closed and focus on squeezing only the targeted muscle.
  3. Eating before training?

    Insulin and testosterone have an inverse relationship. So keeping you insulin at a min allows you to maximize your testosterone and HGH when training. One of my goals is to learn how to time my eating to maximize those benefits. So to lift fasted or at least without carbs would allow the most...
  4. What does natural bodybuilding mean to you?

    That's awesome. My previous post explains how I respect people being honest about their habits for the benefit of the whole fitness community. If people in bodybuilding shows claim not to use substances that they do it misinforms the entire community about what is achievable. That is why so...
  5. What does natural bodybuilding mean to you?

    Oh, I wish that was true. I'm quite happy with my progress, but my bro is way big. He's got freaky genetics, I feel so much bigger when I go to the gym without him. I taught him how to lift and used to explain things to him like "it's mental, develop your mind muscle connection" but it turns...

    Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone here!
  7. Douchebags at the gym...

    I think the dude is an idiot and weird. But she told him he was cute(although obviously to placate him) and he said sorry and left when she said she was spoken for, so I will say not quite harassment. But douchebag material for the "kiss me then" comment for sure. How does one say something...
  8. Douchebags at the gym...

    No mud, but apparently there is a rule posted that I never bothered to look at. The selective enforcement is what irked me. Oh well, I'll make sure my panties are unbunched before I put on the appropriate athletic attire next time?
  9. Douchebags at the gym...

    OK, maybe you fellas can help me identify who the douchebag is in this(this one is a mild case either way I think). But my buddy called me on a day off and asked if I wanted to lift. I didn't have time to go home so I showed up in jeans, boots and a t-shirt. No legs yesterday, so I didn't...
  10. What does natural bodybuilding mean to you?

    Lol, my buddy just likes to give me a hard time cuz I constantly talk **** to him like it's my job[emoji3] I'm more interested in hearing others personal philosophies on the matter. Besides, I've got him on vitamins now anyways, so he's losing his natty card! Lol.
  11. What does natural bodybuilding mean to you?

    Thanks for the great response! I appreciate hearing the logic and think you make some good points. I like how hormonal gear is the line you drew as it is pretty objective. A comment/question: You mention natural being where you are at your max genetic potential and that ephedrine doesn't...
  12. What does natural bodybuilding mean to you?

    Everything is relative. After joining this forum I began realizing what a nebulous term "natural" is. There are many different perspectives for what makes a natural lifter. For example, I was offended one day when my lifting buddy said he was natural and I'm a "supplement guy" when someone...
  13. Little advice belly fat

    Look up intermittent fasting and make sure you still eat your macros. Did it work for you?
  14. Elbow joint pains?

    My buddy had this issue for a while. He tried laying off arms for some time (he's an arms guy) and it didn't help. He got better after taking glucosamine for a few weeks.
  15. Douchebags at the gym...

    Oh man, yesterday there was someone using up the deadlift/squat rack...They were laying on the ground benching with a 10 on each side. 4 benches open, but this idiot is using the spot bar as a rack and laying on the floor. SMH. And I couldn't deadlift because of it?. I was not happy.
  16. overtraining, myth or fact?

    I am currently suffering from overtraining, so it's no myth. My cardio is punching a heavy bag 3x a week and between that and lifting, my forearms are being overtrained and I've began to develop a carpel tunnel type of condition. I also had overtrained my lower back for a bit, between core...
  17. What's everyone's EDC?

    Don't own any karambits, but the fox one is definitely my favorite cuz it waves. You're making me really consider one. I could use a karambit in my collection anyways. [emoji3]
  18. What's everyone's EDC?

    Kinda. One.small and very not scary. One bigger. Both great for utility. But obviously I'd use the larger in a defense situation. If I was carrying FOR self defense I'd use a blade that "waves" open when I remove it from my pocket.
  19. What's everyone's EDC?

    Knives. I love knives. Almost always have 2 on me. Spydercos my favorite. Fox karambit is nice.
