Out of all the CL products you've tried, particularly the Blue Line, what would be your top two?

I've yet to finish Blue GROWTH, so it's hard to say with certainty, but Blue GENE is right up there for favorite supps in general. I had good success with Blue GENE and the symptoms were very apparent. Of the various supps that generate windows of increased libido, the libido spikes were the most apparent when I was on Blue GENE. I've tried Blue UP, but for me, it wasn't extraordinary.

I've only been on Blue GROWTH for about 5 days (as of tonight), so I can't really assess it yet.
 
Just noticed how wide you grip that HS bench, me likey :biggthumpup:
 
Should call yourself Swolecom instead of Volcom...sheesh. Pushing some serious weights my man.

Have you experienced any shoulder discomfort since starting Oly Lifts? Mine acts up once and a while while doing them yet I've never had an injury related to the part that is affected (Shoulder).

No, just my wrists if I do cleans, but after buying wrist wraps its seemed to go away. I also warm up with over head squats with the bar to warm up my shoulder flexibility.

Agreed, maybe you could talk to a mod or something about that. :lol:

I think Blue GENE is a good foundation for any stack really and so far, it seems that Blue GROWTH is offering some really strong, expedient recovery effects at this point.

I know man everyone his posts are like 4 or 5 in the morning. I always though that maybe he lives somewhere that its in a different time zone.

Hahaha. If I could pull that off I would, but rest is 1/3rd of your gains!

I'm asleep by 10-11pm, wake up at 430am. Blue GrowtH makes it easy to control my sleep patterns!

I agree. Blue GENE is a great backbone product, like Prime would be. It fits into alot of stacks.

We developed Blue GrowtH to be stacked with Blue GENE, getting the daytime and the nighttime dose. They're very synergenic. Blue GENE has that natural AI property in it, along with the test boosters. And Blue GrowtH, the focus is on GH, but it has compounds like Safed Musli which will boost test too, is complimented by the AI in BG.

I'll be starting a new log with these two in the future :D
 
Man! I am sorry I left this thing for a few days and 5 pages to read! Way to go Volc, I need to look at this from home where i can see the youtube vids
 
keep training hard and i will get you a position as one of my bodyguards

 
I put together a little compilation of my workout. This is my first ever shot at video editing and I just downloaded a free video editing program, so if it seems choppy and amateurish, it's because it is.

Olympic Snatch
90lbs x 5 reps
115lbs x 5 reps
135lbs x 3 reps
135lbs x 3 reps
135lbs x 3 reps

Hang Snatch


90lbs x 5 reps
115lbs x 4 reps
135lbs x fail
135lbs x fail
135lbs x fail
135lbs x 1 after I sipped on some MuscleTech Gakic

Hang Cleans
135lbs x 5 reps
185lbs x 3 reps
185lbs x 3 reps
185lbs x 2 reps
185lbs x 1 rep

Jerk Press
135lbs x 5 reps
135lbs x 5 reps
135lbs x 4 reps
135lbs x 4 reps
135lbs x 3 reps

Power Upright Rows
135lbs x 5 reps
135lbs x 5 reps
135lbs x 5 reps

My partner Dusty couldn't lift today, so I took the tripod to Peak Performance. I'm feeling stronger with a slight increase in stamina. Looking forward to more progress and I'm hoping my low back was healed enough to do this today. I have a tendency to jump in prematurely.

Oh nice!! Be sure to let me know :bigok:
 
Love the vid my friend !!!! I bet you are tired after that.... simply beast mode!!!!
 
Great video Volcom, excellent form. You did a good job with the editing too.

LoL @ KimJong video. Did you see that guy dodging the shuriken?
 
Besides some serious ass lifting, Volcom was styling and profiling with that LG shirt and Blue Inzer Lever Power Belt!!!

I'll bet that belt came in handy on these lifts. :yup:

That Inzer belt is awesome and I wear Inzer knee wraps, too. The lever on that belt feels like a commercial grade, freezer storage lever and the leather feels like compressed beef jerky; quality ish.
 
Resolve said:
I dig the hang snatch man. Good stuff.
Click to expand...

Thanks Resolve. . Fixed it ;) They're easy to mix up. I'd always get them mixed up until they became an area of study. I'm not really pulling anything extraordinary, tbh. It's slightly above average for the layperson. H.S. football seniors who actually do these tend to struggle right around 115lbs for "snatches." There are only a small handful of H.S. coaches who actually teach a proper clean and a much smaller handful who teach the snatch at all. My only other comparison are competitive power lifters and yeah, quite literally, I'm pulling girl weight relative to competition standards, but I'm just 3-4 months in, so I've got a ways to go to hit my potential.
 
Hang Cleans...I gotsta do some of those. :)

What kind of belt is it you're using there, Sam? I need to order a new one. I think I'll get the 13mm Single Prong Inzer, but I was looking at the lever belts as well that they have. :dunno:

I've been going to EliteFTS for all my gear, but I hear Inzer belts can't be beat.
 
keep up the good work....

make progress and ill send someone to prepare that kimchi for you and give you a back rub

dont get her mad, she is highly trained.

If I do any form of clean my traps get too big, I actually have to avoid training traps, clean and press I still throw in though, they're just to fuggin badass. Most of the time I will do push press as it really widens my shoulders, cleans make my shoulders look narrower because of the overdevloped traps...
 
man what video editing program did you download and do you know if it edits 3gp files???
btw neat vid with the snatches, you should edit more these vids are nice son! i got some vids up on my log on the first post,you should check em out man

I'll check your vids out, ASAP. I used a free download called Windows Movie Maker. It's a free upgrade for you if you have windows media player. I knocked that thing out in like 30-45 min with all the cropping and editing included.

Did some hangin' snatches last nite - inspired by your video :)

Only repped up ~145# though

Nice man. I'm still trying to develop my power and my core strength. I can't sit into the catch as low as I need to because I don't have the core strength to overhead squat more then 135lbs from that low. I'll get there. 145 hang snatch isn't easy man (at least not for us "bodybuilders"), good stuff.
 
Resolve said:
Bah, snatch! I meant snatch! I don't think I've ever done more than 135 for a snatch, but then I've only done them while warming up for power cleans.
Click to expand...

What do you power clean anyway? I haven't Olympic cleaned (meaning off the floor) in a long time, because I always do my cleans after my Olympic Snatches and Hang Snatches, so at that point, pulling any off the ground is energy I don't have, so I always Hang Snatch. I think I could Oly Clean 225 for reps if I were fresh, but I've only been able to do hangs for the longest.

My power is far behind my strength ability and I don't think I have great "natural" power as is.

Here's a video I just threw together in literally 8 min; it probably took longer to upload into YouTube then to make it. These are some hang cleans I did after I did Oly Snatches and Hang Snatches awhile back, so I was already pretty exhausted. I only do a full front squat if needed, such as if the weight forces me down, otherwise, for such lighter weights as 135, I don't need to full front squat; I just catch it high. Also, my wrists aren't nearly flexible enough to set it across the proper positioning, high up on my delts yet. I can Clean grip front squats if given the time to adjust, but I can't catch it that high yet.

13mm Lever Inzer. Solid quality. The hide is so fresh when you get it that it makes you hungry for steak. It's also very easily adjustable. I received my belt at work and made my adjusts with screwing & unscrewing things here & there with a butter knife at my office desk, literally.

With the lever belt, you get the belt, the lever and some screws. You have to assemble the lever to the belt and this way, you can apply the lever to the proper area on the belt so that it would fit your waste. It only takes a few mins, even if you're not a handy man such as myself. Again, I put the thing together with a butter knife, sitting at my office desk.
