Why was orange triad ever out of your supp cabinet? Is there ever a time in your lifting career where you believe joint support & a multi-vitamin would not be wholly beneficial???

I am currently using OT, and have for several months. It's a dandy all in one. But I feel I can get the same effect from 2 equate men's multi/day & the walmart glucosamine & chondroiton blend I was using, & save $5 a month with 2 less pills/day. So that's where I'm going back to. Anyway, multi & joint support are STAPLE. Why people are surprised they're 50 yrs old, lifting like a madman, & their elbows & knees hurt while they're not on a joint supp is beyond me.

Ive been taking a prescription multi but it really wasnt as well rounded as it should be. And yes the joint health support should be good, but I might try your brand next. Ive never used OT though, always an animal pak guy myself

Being a lazy fck today. All I did this morning was pull out my gauges and take a picture in my charlies. Other than that just waiting on my supps to come in. My boots are here though. Probably take them on a run in the foothills

Ouch. Danners are too fckn heavy for my taste. I bought one pair several years ago. They were like walking on pilows compared to issued boots but once they got wet and muddy doing ANYTHING in them was HELLNothing beats Bates Ultra Lites. They wear out within 6 months but the theyre so fckn comfortable and light its worth it, especially if you can get them covered with the clothing allowance...

Haha. ABE, OT, and Test Powder just came in. Gonna save the ABE for wks 4-8 of PCT and go ahead and order the Xgels as well as some Erase Pro to stack with it. I like how the Test Powder has the 1g dose of Agmatine as well so I dont have to purchase a separate pump product which makes it a really great PCT supp. The rest of my order should come in tomorrow which includes the kilo of MBCAA, 2 bottles of caffeine tablets, and some creatine mono. Ready to get shredded and strong again!!!!

I always used Nike, or NB.

Then Nike's were like tennis shoes which made rucking much easier on the feet.

My 5.11s were awesome. The Danners are great for being offshore when it's 15 degrees out.

I love my NBs but I only get them for the low stack trail runners they make. My Nikes are mainly for looks than practicality. As far as load bearing boots are concerned I stick with the Bates Ultra Lites for when I HAVE to wear something with an EGA on the side, otherwise I like Oakley, Magnum, and Converse. Converse probably being my favorite because of the zipper on the side....But right now Im giving these Tretorn Highlander Leather sneaker/boots a whirl. They are suggested retail around $165 but they were on Amazon for $45. Im breaking them in now and they feel fantastic and are high quality build

So Im experimenting with 0.5tsp sodium bicarbonate along with Test Powder twice daily. Test Powder is a two scoop serving so this is perfect. Split dosage at AM/PM on non-lift days, 3hrs and 0.5hr prior on lift days. First dose just went down. Hoping to not be pissing out the ass in a minute...

So far so good. A couple voluminous belches but all calm now. Now the preworkout goes down with the creatine in some powerade. I got two cases (30) powerades for $15 at the store last weekend. Enough for a month. Pretty rad.

In other news my balls are still throbbing here and there throughout the day. Tomorrow marks the end of week two of PCT and my doses begin lowering on Friday.

And in even other news. The wife wanted to check out an MMA gym today. She stopped powerlifting with me since I injured myself and she has been talking about fighting again. Well we went and checked out Lovato Total Training. They just opened and have a respected and known training staff. $35 a month for their classes. They happen to be associated with a PowerLifting gym next door and since they are a new start-up they allow members use of the powerlifting equipment at no extra cost. Soooooo...... Im switching gyms tomorrow. I already paid my membership two weeks ago to my current gym but its low cost enough I dont really care, that and its become too crowded this year anyway. YAY FOR NEW GYMS

Pretty good, finishing up my shred this week, going to up my calories and add in some cardio 3 x a week, try to put on a little more size.

Looking forward to your shredfest

Ive been so sore and tired this week from training. Happy to be between jobs during this transition because rest isnt an issue. Got my MBCAAs, Creatine, and Caffeine Tablets in. I now have a very impressive PCT stack that I am very proud of. This coupled with some serious eating and training should result in some loss of body fat and increase in LBM.

Forgive me for asking a silly question, but why do BBers take Viagra and Cialis. Just for erections? Or another reason?

Different exogenous hormones cause different negative sexual performance reactions in most men. ED, loss of libido, inability to finish... The pills are just there to help. Take me for example. I was running test at a gram a week for several months. I was horny 24/7 while on, and even had a pretty high libido before I got on. Now however, my libido has taken a dive. I can still perform, still get turned on, but my desire for PussC has diminished greatly. Im hoping by the end of next month however that any issues have resolved themselves naturally

I take ACV for "ph balance"

For the buffering qualities. Ph balancing as well.[/QUOTE

I don't even know what that means.
Ok so there have already been several studies on sodium bicarbonate supplementation in humans, one where it was stacked with creatine as well. These studies have shown that explosive force is multiplied when paired with creatine (something near and dear to a powerlifter such as yourself). The studies have used something like 3grams a day. The problem with baking soda is that it is highly reactive in the digestive system, and a large dose all at once spells for GI discomfort and irritability, so split doses while slowly increasing amount ingested is the way Im going with it. Secondly, supplementation with sodium bicarbonate has also been shown to create a more neutral pH in the stomach for the duration of its ingestion. This potentially means that stacking it with something like bulk DAA, which is known to cause the runs, may reduce the irritability caused by bulk DAA powder. Thirdly, sodium bicarbonate also has shown buffering qualities. Laymans terms, it should reduce lactid acid buildup in working muscles. Less pain, more gain...

Im only on day two of this experiment and Ill likely run it for the duration of my PCT through to week 8. Follow along for updates

Hmmm I remember readin some stuff and just assumed it was mostly for endurance based athletes. Sounds pretty legit though.
