STAY/GET BACK IN SHAPE VOL 3.0 -- A New Niketalk = A New Thread

That guy's form on those deadlifts are so bad with the way he rounds his back.
Are you talking about when he goes heavier and kind of jerks it as he goes up? I just started doing them and want to make sure I'm not doing that.

When he's deadlifting while standing on the plates, he's pulling and lowering the bar with a rounded back. Head position and where you're looking can play a big part in it. Make sure your shoulders are back, your head is up and your looking at your eyes in the mirror during the whole lift. Those are the ques I use.

dont know how u guys drink ON protein there are so many better options out there i find it funny when people talk about how good it is i mean anything from even dymatize has better flavoring, ON has decent macros so it will get the job done but applauding its taste when u can only compare it to just gnc brand proteins is hysterical, giant sports, trutein, iforce, cellucor, gaspari and many others that are cheaper or the same price as ON and are actually a treat to drink

I've never understood the ON hype. To each their own though.
 
it tastes ok until you try other brands. i haven't used ON for 3 years now. there's absolutely nothing wrong with it though.

i've found that, a lot of times, ON has a better grams of protein/price because it doesn't have a ton of filler material like other brands do. 5 pounds of ON whey vs. 5 pounds of Brand X whey isn't the same as evidenced by ON having 70+ servings per tub vs. the 50 servings per tub of another brand. not saying that's always the case, but i see it a lot.

also, ON doesn't add that gag-inducing thickening agent that a lot of other brands add :x :x :x

it's a cost-friendly, high-quality product with no frills.

ON's Natural line is good. I'm not big on using my protein as a treat anyways, so there's very few brands I bother with. I'll stick with cheat meals for that.
 
Just speaking of protein shakes in general, I always buy vanilla so I can add my own flavor depending on what I'm feeling.

Lately I've been adding Heresey's cocoa in. About a 1.5 tablespoons (15 calories) in 8oz of milk and it adds a much better chocolate taste than any chocolate protein powder has. I highly recommend giving it a try.

Thanks. Yea my calves don't usually look like that but after I pounded some candy/poptarts back stage, I think it all rushed to my legs lol. Yea the board shorts were a requirement and I just found those last minute on sale and figured they'd work.

don't trip bro, I go on cruises all of the time. Just took a 2 week one in April, was wonderful btw, you're gonna have a blast. I didn't gain weight tho. Eating all of the time kept my metab moving. Not to mention I was in the little fitness center for like 5 days. Plus each port, you'll do quite a bit of walking either on tours or perusing the area, so that's your slow steady cardio. Boom.

Repped..... thanks brah, appreciate it. Yeah there is a gym on the cruise, plus we are going to walking cities, so cardio will be good. Wish I had a Fuel Band it would be GAWDLY right now
 
superJU looking good (and i mean that in the manliest way possible). boardshorts are generally used in fitness comps right?

When boardshorts are worn, it's a Men's Physique competition. I think there are different poses compared to bodybuilding comps. Generally, a lot of men's physiques competitors have underdeveloped legs when compared to their upper body.
