  1. ZMA = nightmares?!

    Just wondering if this was a side effect... I ended up giving away a bottle of ZMA caps because every night I took them I would have ridiculous nightmares. I would take a week off, no nightmares. Day 1 back on every time and every consecutive night after I would have crazy dreams. Does it cause...
  2. Chest fly form check

    Yup^
  3. Very uneven growth, how to correct?

    I saw this myself a while back. I've noticed that when I really place a lot of emphasis on form the problem seems to dissipate rather quickly. When I saw this with myself I closely examined how I perform all my exercises with the help of spotters and I found that my shoulder and elbow placement...
  4. Personal experiences on GVT

    Tried it and didn't really like it. I think that it would be a great routine to implement every few months for a few weeks at a time. I like HIT so much more but I do incorporate a few high volume/low weight days every few months just to mix things up and I've seen pretty good success with my...
  5. TAURUS NUTRITION PROMO: BATTLE CRY FOR M1P

    Taurus Nutrition: Eat like a man, train like a bull Taurus Nutrition: Fierce Fuel Taurus Nutrition: No bulls were harmed in the making of these supplements
  6. Deadlift form tip

    I just got done with my max effort day for deadlifts and I put up 30 more pounds than I had two months ago and I feel like I could have pulled more. Because I hadn't pulled a max in a while I was looking over various sites for form tips just to make sure I had every advantage I could and I came...
  7. Want more go from my preworkout

    I've been eating roughly 50 grams of carbs for breakfast along with about 20 grams of protein. I'm never really hungry in the morning so this is all that I can force down. I had been skipping breakfast all together and I feel much better throughout the day now that I'm starting my day with some...
  8. Want more go from my preworkout

    Thanks for all the input guys. I have started eating a significantly bigger breakfast which is usually about two hours before I lift. I would think that this would give me more energy but perhaps the preworkout isn't kicking in as hard because it's not being taken on a completely empty stomache...
  9. Want more go from my preworkout

    I just got a tub of Maniac from AISportsnutrition and I have a few good things to say about it. It does taste amazing, provides a great pump (although I am taking 1.5g of agmatine on training days...), better endurance/less fatigued, and provides improved focus over some others I've tried. My...
  10. Doggcrap and forced extreme stretching: who's doing it?

    I would think that stretching would increase muscle fiber involvement which would also increase the overall mass worked. I guess we'll see if my stretching reduces or promotes soreness. I'm not sore as of right now but I guess we'll see tomorrow. I'm gonna be stoked if my stretching between sets...
  11. Doggcrap and forced extreme stretching: who's doing it?

    After reading this thread I stretched between sets on my chest day today and I can say that I saw a noticeable difference in my pump and I also felt like more of my pecs were being worked. Probably gonna have some sore boobies tomorrow. I wish I had started this a while ago and will no doubt...
  12. Sugar-Free cinnamon BBQ Chicken

    I've been adding cinnamon to my homemade barbecue sauce forever ha. Glad someone else knows what's good!
  13. Feeling Sick Eating Same Old Foods

    I can say that knowing how to mix spices will save you some money in the long run because good marinades and sauces are significantly more expensive than a decent collection of spices.
  14. Feeling Sick Eating Same Old Foods

    Stock up on spices if you're getting tired of bland chicken my approach was to assemble a few different blends of spices to use each time so it felt like my meals were different even though the base was the same. With chicken (I'm assuming either forman'd or grilled) I would use 3 different...
  15. Bcaa

    Glad I ran into this thread. I just got my first bottle yesterday ha. Thanks op!
  16. Help with tuna

    Spicy tuna spread: If you like some spice and want to change it up from the cayenne try adding some sriracha (red asian chili sauce) as well as spicy or yellow mustard, black pepper, a little garlic powder, and onion powder. I eat this on sandwiches or with whole wheat crackers. Thick toast...
  17. so, woke up this morning....

    I'm gonna try adding a significant amount of carbs this morning and see if the effect is exacerbated.
  18. so, woke up this morning....

    Got mine today. It arrived about 20 mins before I left for the gym. Took a gram with my preworkout and my pump lasted 4 hours... It slowly subsided after that but not at all bad for day one.
  19. 6 week GVT followed by Dorian Yates' HIT

    Thanks. I've just been doing the same thing for so long I thought I'd try something a little different. GVT was appealing because it was so much simpler than my previous workout. If my being in pain is any sign of progress then I'd say it's going well so far.
  20. Getting off of the evil Ambien...supplement suggestions?

    ZMA 30 mins before bed. It's helped me out a lot. I feel like it just regulates your body's natural sleep cycles. No grogginess like melatonin gave me. If you're having trouble with anxiety due to withdrawals try taking 500mg of Niacin (B3). I suggested that to my girlfriend and when she started...
