I did order Pepti plex and the old CEL pct assist.

Deadlifts were great feeling really good about them and man what a sweat fest. Also felt pretty good one of the gym regulars that’s been there before I started at this gym came up and complimented me on my deads and how I have progressed. Was pretty unexpected but felt great hearing that!

I'm right behind you with ordering pepti-plex, I'm pretty stoked to see what it can do for me.

This was a killer session dude

Same on the Pepti Plex seems to be a lot of positives with this supplement. Lots of feedback and seems to be working well on a lot of different pathways.
 
Initially I was taking 4 caps upon waking. Then I tried doing 4 caps post workout on lifting days. I am currently doing 2 in am, 2 in pm. I didn’t go 6 caps. It seemed to work the same in any of the ways I dosed it. I have seen the best recuperation after my torn tricep from Pepti-Plex. Minimal tendon soreness after tricep work.

The absolute best price is always the 12-pack deal, purchased during a holiday sale. Failing that, the prices at SNS during holiday sales are still always the best. And getting multipacks during that time are still killer deals. Otherwise, for regular time DPS generally has the best price for whatever they have in stock if buying 1-2 bottles of something, I’ve found.
 
I also ordered the mutant pro chocolate milk protein, forgot to add that.

I mentioned that because I need to bring powder with me during the day to get some protein in. Today was a bit of a cluster **** show, didn’t get to eat lunch so turned into a mini fast. Hopefully with dinner re fuel I have enough in the tank for some good work tomorrow morning!

My PEA relief arrived today. How and when r u dosing? And when did you notice any relief in pain?
Click to expand...
I dose one first thing in the am with fish oil pill then one when I get home around 5ish again with fish oil. I did experiment with 3 a day for 2 weeks.

I started noticing less back stiffness/sore around the 1 week ish area. I’m one bottle in now and can say with confidence I have a lot less aches pains in general. The biggest one is just my lower back I haven’t had the problems I was having before.

I am on bottle 2 and plan on this just being a staple for me at this point.
 
I am going to give those exercises a shot. Every time I went to chiro over the years he always mentioned c5 and 6 as well as t1. I ronically I watched the entire video w poor posture!
Thanks for the input brother!!! Much appreciated

No worries man I did the rolled up towel last night and this morning, going to keep doing them to help open up things felt really good.

4000 iu is what I’ve been running lately. I also need to get magnesium restocked I haven’t been keeping up with it.

You really want to get your D3 levels checked at some point. That could be far too little.

I’m not saying you should do this, but I take 24,000iu on training days and 22,000 on off days currently.

I know from my bloodwork I absorb it quite poorly (as does my sister), so I need a lot to stay in range. 10,000 is enough to keep me from being deficient (sub-30 level), but 20k has been slowly creeping me up. I was up to mid 60s a few months back in winter taking 17,000. I have no perceived issues from this and I am not over the top of range (100), nor do I get lots of sun come summertime, so I am experimenting.

The main thing is to not be deficient, sub 30 levels. The majority of people who died from COVID were found to have low D levels, so that tells me it’s probably ideal to keep my levels on the higher end of in-range.

That is a good point I’ll look into getting a vitamin D test and see where I’m at.

That's a pretty big endorsement, might need to give this a go.

Wow! I currently add 5000 IUs daily. Bit maybe I need to also rethink the amount.

Doubling down on AK, at the 2 week mark to the day, i noticed my neck and lower back cracks and pops had completely subsided... my tendinitis was manageable, and I can't feel the arthritis in my feet for the first time since 2017.

Now those are huge claims, sometimes I can still tell somethings not 100%, but the lack of pain gives me the opportunity to correct what I'm doing before I get to the point of hurting. Might have been AK I said it to in my log, maybe you, but it's a small quality of life adjustment and I'll take every little bit I can.
 
Last week my average weight was 225.7 LBS

This week my average weight was 224.29 LBS down 1.4 lbs

Pretty happy with the results so far just need to keep it up!
 
looking back at pictures from a year ago its pretty crazy the difference. I will work on putting together some side by side photos.Invalid Link Removed

Just got my PEA Relief and Pepti-Plex in yesterday’s mail. This is bottle 3 of the Pepti, excited to see the combo of the 2 products. I agree, any improvement over “status quo” is a WIN!
 
So my little angel has been walking for about a week pretty solid. So today we took her to the park and she got to walk with shoes on and in the wide open. Took a little bit to get comfortable with the shoes but once she got it figured out we walked all over! She turn 1 year old next Saturday. Invalid Link Removed
 
That’s AWESOME Brother! Being a Dad is the best. Enjoy EVERY MOMENT you can w her. My daughter is 25 this May and I worked a shift at work that was a personal sacrifice but benefited my employer. I missed a lot of tub time, dinner, and bed time stories w her. I worked 4 10hr shifts so I kinda broke even but man do I miss those days when she looked at me like I made the sun rise and set.
Its a cliche but they grow up soooooo fast

The saying they grow up so fast or time flys is definitely so true. I can’t believe it’s a year already and she has grown so much it makes me so proud but a little sad at the same time.

Definitely one of the reasons I transferred here was we had been trying to start a family and this allowed me the time to actually be home and have a life with them. I want to be there every step of the way as much as I can, work will always be there.
 
I work to live - never live to work! You never know how many days you will get, but the one thing you can count on is that none of the days will ever truly be the same. Time is always passing! Try to appreciate the now as much as you can.
