Yeah, a lot of studies for fitness and performance based stuff seem to be behind the "bro-science" curve. I feel like a lot of what we are learning is really just proving pre-existing bro-science...
I'd also like to know where people get this mindset that competing for a plastic trophy gives you a reason to use more gear. It's called personal preference and people do what they want to do...

Filled by the Marlboro Man himself. This savory shake has a nutty flavor, it can be a little clumpy, and gets frothy if you shake for too long. Best drank warm, this hydrating...
Agreed, the 8 hour feeding window is the bees knees for someone wanting to be able to grow on IF. I never had a problem getting my protein in with that, or really any other form of fasting as long...
no joke!! we generally only hit happy hours these days, keeps the tab low, but the macros crappy too. lol
yeah I remember when my sister in law was doing the old school approach with an alarm set...
Right. So move to an 8-hour window where you get a shake in 90-120 minutes before your meal, and a couple cups of sugar-free Greek yogurt later on after. Then you’ve got 80-100g on top of whatever...
To be fair, that is one thing with the fasting if you are not paying attention the protein can dip easily. Once you kind of get settled into not eating a few meals a day you have to be intentional...
Well, my position was high level competitive bodybuilders are justified in using that dose because they are trading their health for their livelihood (as are most of us, in different ways).
I...
Lol yeah that’s probably unnecessarily drastic; I would not disturb my endogenous GH production & insulin sensitivity for 50 more grams of protein at the least relevant time of day.
But sometimes...
It seems so hardcore for someone who was cool with 50g protein a day just a few days ago. :)
Good to see you making the small adjustments that will help with recovery!
I wanted to post this in @dapack s thread since we were talking nutrition and stuff but figured I'd clutter my own thread, lol. My wife turned a zuchinni into a delicious giant brownie haha...
These are two key items that we stressed for him as well. I'll work with him more on both. I literally mentioned the wasted energy portion, rucking 405 around the gym for 5 minutes before...
Yes, getting fully loaded before you unrack is key. Like you said, it will feel radically lighter if this has been done. Then 2 steps to set feet, root them, more air down into the diaphragm/back...
I would say the bracing is key for sure. He should be completely braced before he ever breaks the bar loose from the j-cups, It is much harder to recover an unstable barbell on your back than it...

not totally related but I was telling my wife last week I don't remember the last time I saw a scientific study that impressed me or seemed counter intuitive to real life. Bro science is funny...
I don't know the science behind it but always gave credit to really heavy holds when I was rehabbing (in addition to the very light RDL's of course). super high position barbell holds/shrugs, any...
Yes, I definitely think that incorporating carries into my recovery is going to be important. As you may have seen some light carries are already being done and this garage reorg was a HUGE test...
I can't help but think that kind of stimulus should be really good for you, cautiously holding very heavy things. Maybe slow progression of farmers carries could help drive that heavy weight...
Awesome, I will definitely look into it, it sounds like it should be helpful.
Yesterday was a long day for me. I rearranged my garage gym trying to make room to do a few things Sunday. I worked...

Thanks, it has definitely been a ridiculous challenge.
I like your plan of dropping the weight down to 50% and using that as a sort of working rehab.
I am definitely down for an accountability...

Real competitive bodybuilders use more like 600 to 1500 mg and I know because I'm around people like that who compete at heavyweight in body building and also strong man. And yes some of them use...
Not sure, because injectable allegedly doesn’t have the neural strength benefits to the same degree. Allegedly that’s a metabolite from oral digestion responsible for the power.
IF that’s true...
its much easier for a 24 yr old fitness trainer/influencer to feel great in a deficit when half of their deficit comes from a busy NEAT inducing lifestyle rather than desk work. My wife has that...
