1mr is sort of like jack3d but with a LOT more caffeine (300mg)
i wouldnt really recommend it to be honest.....too much caffeine, youre gonna get desensitized to it too fast

155 is a dime on each side away from BW... not bad for sets of 10
BTW... I only started these last month, how the HELL do you guys do front squats without killing your front delts?? my wrists + delts are done before my legs are.
Anyone start cutting?
I know a lot of people were the same as me.. skinny as hell and a major surplus of calories throughout the past few months.
Inevitably, an increase of unwanted bodyfat has probably shown up.
I spend 6 weeks "bulking" and then 2 weeks "cutting" to keep a level playing field while building muscle.
By going from a 500+ caloric surplus right into a 500 caloric deficit, your body responds well to fat loss due to certain hormones that are still elevated from your caloric surplus.
It's been working really good for me... I'm going to focus on getting low BF for now.

Not sure if this site was posted in here: http://swole.me/
make sure to check out the customized food options and meal lock feature (to fix weird meal combos).
really needed something like this to jump start the right diet

when i Front squat, the bar is just barely being held on my finger tips, enough to where I can grab onto it with out trouble, but enough to where I have no pain in my wrists after doing a set, I'd say its >20% on my fingers <80% on my upper chest/right below my neck.Originally Posted by brettTHEjett

Hypothetical question:
What would happen to someone who
-lifted heavy but in enough volume to trigger hypertrphy
-had a maintenance caloric intake of 2700 (working at a desk all day)
-did intense workouts (500 cals) five days a week
-ate exactly 2700 calories everyday with clean foods and the right ratio of macros
would they build muscle, lose fat, and stay the same weight?

if you truly ate at maintenance i guess youd recomp....body weight would stay roughly the same but youd lose fat and put on muscle

155 is pretty good for a front squat. I hardly front squat. Getting back in shape is a slow and painful process, hit the deadlift hard yesterday, felt like throwing up at the end of my workout. It's one of those worst/best feelings,

I'm trying to cut cut and what not since its summer, i've been successful but i'm not too sure if i am intaking enough protein. How much would y'all say to intake per lb of BW? .6-.8g? 1g?
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
I am going to start EC stacking soon, whenever i find some C... seems like everywhere is sold out of done have them. Also doing a push/pull split since i can not get into the gym too often this summer, just around twice a week (going heavy at weights) then hitting light workouts with body weight like pull ups, pushups, dips, etc... cardio going on active off days, sprints, SOME distance, biking, the usual cardio.
Diet consisting of lean meats, fresh veggies (alot being green leafy like spinach and greens), fruits (apples, bananas, berries), and nuts (alomnds mostly). Also drinking a good amount of water, and UNSWEETENED tea.
Protein is being taking after workouts via shakes and may starting taking a shake as soon as i awake in the mornings.

random question, yesterday I was doing shoulders and while holding the weights in my hands I felt a burning pain in my fingers and hands. it somewhat made lifting unbearable
I've been using gloves since I started lifting. is there anything I can do to fix this problem? or is it one of those no pain no gain situations?

IMO it's extremely hard to recomp unless you're on something. It takes a calorie surplus to build muscle which you won't have and a calorie deficit to lose fat which you also won't have. I don't think you'll get much results at all. I could be wrong but that's my opinion on it.
