Jim: Performance is King Log.

I know it's a ME front, but quite a bit of hip-drive there that you want to minimize bc of the torso lean it's causing.

My gyms the same way bro. Def not a PL'ing set up. You can still get ridiculously strong without all the specialized things. I've been wanting to make a switch, but I love that I'm cool with nearly everyone at my gym and its literally 2 blocks away.

Lol, equipment?

Mines a warehouse with concrete floors and squat racks. Sure, I've got homemade strongman equipment because the gym owner and I compete and he makes **** for us.

I don't need no equipment to get strong. Just plates and barbells.

Watch your hips drive back in the front squat, which then causes greater forward torso lean. You want to minimize that forward torso lean.

I know but it's still be cool to have some of this stuff ya know? Only reason why I go to my gym is it's 2 min away. I can train so much more often, even when the week schedule is tight due to that reson. My other gym was 25 min away and that drive was hurting my scheduling

Ok.

Lol believe it or not that's me trying to sit it the hole instead of back. I thought that might be what you meant, but I was confused because of the words 'hip drive'.


I'll work on that next time I front/oly squat.

Always room for improvement, you'll watch an oly lifter, and it's just up-down for them.
 
Starting to feel like I'm hungrier throughout the day.


And, don't feel full as long after a meal as I did before.


Possible effects of AB? Seems a little early to start noticing stuff like that, but who knows .....

You've been up-ing cals right? That right there will slowly increase your appetite

3-4 days for increased appetite.
 
What did help me was when I was taking slinshot, it makes you hungry. Both mentally from knowing you took a GDA and physically from it's affects. You taking on? Not bad for 20 bucks for a month+

I've used it before, noticed the feeling better after meals that I used it but didn't notice the appetite increase. I may have to get some more, I did like slinshot a lot.

Nailed it.

Hmm, he has 3 bottles and 4/day is regular dosing, so I figured he was doing more.

Nope, 4 a day. For 12 weeks. Like a boss.
 
Hell ya dude. I've been wanting to do that. The last year I ran it 8 wk on, 4-6 wk off. Ran at 6 caps for 3 weeks and it was no difference than 4. I may give it a go for 12 weeks. I like that idea.
 
I thought regular dose was 3?


I felt like the GDA let me eat more in a sitting and not feel as filled up. But maybe I just ate my myself and it caught up to me around the same time I stopped taking it.

I can't wait to see how you so on this anabeta. I needa get me something.
 
AnaBeta ftwwwww

4 caps per day is awesome. Interested to see how it treats you Jim.

No, it's 4 per day for AB.

You may be right, I think I still have some slingshot too. I still have some AP I need to get around to using.

I swear I ran it at 3 a few years ago. I'm crazy though. If you have it laying around hit it up. Would definitely help you gain some quality mass.

Concerning the supps I use: I see product recommendations as limitations. Almost as an adage noting, "take at least this much for desired results."
 
Strongman this morning, fasted.

Not optimal, but thats just how it happened.



Pre: 1.5 enhanced, 3 Prime, 2 AB

Circus Dumbell Press: 82 x 4/3 (4 right, 3 left), 82 x 3/1

Took me a couple tries to get it, not so bad once you start to get a hang of the technique.

Sandbag Carry (speed) : 210 x 30yds, 210 x 40yds, +pick up from ground 210 x 50yds


Very hard to pick up from the ground.

Farmers Walk: 200 x F, 150 x 20yds + hold

Glued to the ground, 150 was too easy though.

a1. DB Row: 75 x 12 x 2, 85 x 12
a2. Band Pullapart: MM x 15 x 3


Done. Farmers are weak, was gonna do yoke instead but didn't wanna drag that behemoth outside and then put it back.


Video of carries: Invalid Link Removed


That guy in the second farmers video is the gym owner (and MW NAS competitor). I put that up there to show how much more I need to be able to do, his max farmer is 360 a hand for 30yds lol.
 
Bev is all smiles. Jim is all man-beard.

Looked like a rough day dude. Would trap bar deadlifts help ya with gettin the farmer walk handles off of the ground?

Yes to both!


I might have to start doing them again, another thing that I'm sure will help will just be the extra emphasis I'm now putting on working with the implements.

And, she whooped my ass too, I thought I was gonna get her and then that bag slipped and she was already gone lol.
 
haha I laughed a bit when I saw her gets hers up while you still fumble ****ed yours. Looked difficult as hell to get up.

Yeah, it slipped right out of my hand, almost got it to the lap too.

If I had just held on a little longer to my lap, everything would've been fine.

DL + Squats.


Those squats blew, and I still couldn't sit straight down.
 
How are the GHR sit-ups on the hip flexors as opposed to declined or sitting? And what Oly shoes are those? I'm on the market.

Deads and squats went up fast. Just watch out for that little butt dip.

I want your beard. Jealous.

I only go down to parallel, and the hold at parallel is killer on the abs. I barely feel anything on the HF when I setup right (butt just off the pad).

Safety squat I believe.

The DLs felt really good today, squats, not so much.

I want my gym owners beard.....

Will do. I'm cleaning up my diet as much as I can. I anticipate cutting out fast food and the copious amounts of junk food will drop me at least 5. A little boost wouldn't hurt.

It'll definitely help curb the appetite, I know Swanson logged it earlier this year.
 
Smoker, not to speak ill of trying BPS/Jimbo, keep in mind that your 12lbs should be water loss. If you diet off 12lbs, your chances of gaining strength will be slim. Just food for thought. Not that the product won't work, but losing body fat and cutting weight are vastly different.

That's one of the reasons I mentioned herder lol, he's supposed to be trimming down a little before dropping water.

Although, since DCP increases thermogenesis, it would help with sweating out the extra water; probably.

Chewed upon my friend.
What I'm saying is I'm around 177 apparently. Cleaning up this diet of mine will drop me some weight. So say 5lb. I'm 172. Water weight will be easy for the remainder I would think instead of trying to lose all 12 lb in water. Plus I know aesthetics be damned but my stomach looks like I'm significantly showing. I no like that
