  1. Turning 18 , thoughts on Mk 677

    You're asking about taking a research chemical which at best increases your HGH/IGF-1 levels to a little above high/normal when you're in that range already? I personally wouldn't do it. Reason being you're still growing at 18 and your hormones are though the roof. Short of taking AAS you're not...
  2. Can Barbell Squats Ever Truly Be Replaced?

    For me there is the barbell squat and then there's the rest.
  3. How long do you take to recover from maxing out?

    Depends mate. Firstly on the individual and also your level of proficiency. A beginner for example could potentially max out every week without over training while an advanced athlete may test a max only every few months. The stronger you become, the more taxing lifts are on your CNS/recovery...
  4. Training for strength

    Oh nice I didn't expect so much input here. Thanks Renegade I've used a similar routine as you mention but it lends more to muscle gain. Gaining muscle comes fairly easy for me as a mesomorph but I'm one of those guys who looks stronger than they are. Hyde, thanks for your input man I'll...
  5. Did I strain my chest?

    Sounds about right for a strained muscle. Years ago I strained my right quad during squats and it's now a recurring theme if I don't take time to warm up carefully. Take more time to stretch prior to lifting and perform numerous light sets with slow controlled high reps to increase blood flow to...
  6. 42yo First run with tren

    First cycles are usually the wow cycles. I guess if you were doing a lot of things wrong first time round there's a lot of room for improvement next run. Get your nutrition, sleep and a sound training split together the rest should take care of itself. You have a great physique now and if you...
  7. How Long Are Your Sessions

    Depends really. Normally around 45-60 mins 6-7 days a week with minimal rest between sets. Now I'm doing a run of Smolov (midway through base meso) and I'm finding it really feels like a deload. Time is no more than 30 minutes with rest between sets and legs trained EOD.
  8. Bloodwork study of 4iu GH vs peptides & MK677 (similar to 2-3 iu GH)

    Thanks but Supreme Labs MK raw is twice the price of my previous source. I'll keep on searching.
  9. Bloodwork study of 4iu GH vs peptides & MK677 (similar to 2-3 iu GH)

    What has happened to MK677?? I've just run out (buy 10g bulk powder) and made my way onto Ebay to restock and it's disappeared. No listings at all and the source I'd used for my last batch has disappeared which is a shame as it was very potent. I know there's a bunch of China labs selling raw...
  10. Squat depth and glute activation

    I've been seeing a lot of YT trainers recommend partial squats to those looking to further develop their glutes. Just one such article https://powerliftingtechnique.com/ass-to-grass-squats/ This advice has baffled me as it has always been my experience that the lowest portion of the squat...
  11. 2 days per week

    You'll have to experiment there. Nobody can tell you what is too much for your body or how taxing your day to day life is. You can certainly still make progress with a physically demanding lifestyle you just have to keep things in perspective.
  12. Do you prefer training with or without training partner?

    A good bromance can be better than a solo mission as you can motivate and push one another. I trained with a child hood friend in my late teens and early 20's. We knew each other like brothers, had the same mentality/goals and were learning and sharing ideas on training ,nutrition as we went...
  13. Is It Possible To Be Too Strong?

    Spend a session or two with a coach before you cement bad training habits. As you get stronger you'll risk severe injury if your form is not on point. You can train for an emphasis on strength and look great, it all comes down to body fat. You'll always be stronger at a higher bodyfat % than...
  14. If German Volume Training (10 x 10) works, why not more, such as 20 x 20, 30 x 30?

    At a point the effort/reward ratio diminishes. Doing twice the work doesn't necessarily equate to twice the gains and many have tried pushing the envelope to see how much training they can get away and still make progress. Even with GVT a number of trainees have found that by cutting the volume...
  15. What Person Has the Most Lean Mass in the World?

    Brian Shaw or Hafthor Bjornsson would be up there. Also a prime Eddie Hall comes to mind (420lb)
  16. 2 weeks after LGD cycle, is it too late to start pct?

    Was thinking the same thing. Did you run a test base along side? Many people feel like garbage running LGD solo for any longer than 6 weeks let alone 12.
  17. T-nation is against mk677? do you agree?

    I really appreciate your input on MK677 and it's benefits tregar and it's always refreshing to see actual scientific data to support someones claims and dispel hearsay myths. I stopped using MK677 over 6 months ago but have just restarted as of today. I also purchase from the same source you...
  18. How much muscle did you gain in a month?

    I can only speak from experience and yes 10lb of muscle can be built naturally in a month. I was 17 at the time I started training so it's likely the influx of hormones and developmental changes helped. A lot of guys started to become more muscular during puberty even without any resistance...
  19. How much muscle did you gain in a month?

    The guy in the clip is a skinny beginner a long way off nearing his genetic potential so yes it's very plausible he gained 10lb of muscle in a month and I wouldn't be surprised if he gained another 10lb just as easy. As a skinny kid I gained 24lb of lean mass in 3 months just by looking at gym...
  20. Ironhands negativity free arm growth for Jesus bodybuilding questions and answers thr

    31"arms holy crap this dude is a god, no homo. Must feel great to have such exceptional arm development, no homo, On second thought this guy ranks ahead of god himself IMO. If he shaved his arms they'd look like Tom Platz legs on modern day special steroids. Once again, no homo. Good to see you...
