Thanks.

I'm taking a break from weightlifting for a few days, maybe until Sunday. Pushed myself hard for the last few days, need to recover.

On a positive note, my bicep curl went from 7.5kg when I started, to 10kg, to 15kg, and now 20kg. 20kg is much, much heavier than 15kg and I can only do 2 reps per set right now. But 15kg is too light now.

I know bicep curls aren't indicative of much, and it doesn't mean much. But psychologically, it matters to me because of the progress I've made. I've always been a big guy in terms of my height and build, but I never really had much muscle. I was a nerd at high school, I was allergic to sport, so I had no muscle to speak of. So, the fact that now a 15kg dumbell is now too light for my bicep curls makes me very, very happy.

It means all of my hard work is starting to pay off. I suppose when you work out, you worry that you aren't doing it right and will never make any progress. So it makes me happy because I can see the progress now.

Cool bro gains are gains. I have these small weights that I got in my dumb bell kit years ago that include .5kg, 1kg 1.25kg, 2.25kg and 5kg. People always ask what use are those they are so light, but it's a nice way to slowly add weight like if 100kg is your PB bench press it's easier to go to 102kg than 105kg physicalley and mentality.

I'm using rubber coated hex dumbells, the disadvantage being that you can't easily add weight. Creates a problem for me, because 15kg is too light and 20kg is too heavy for a lot of my exercises.

You can usually pick up a spinlock 20kg set on special at Makro or Game for about R500. Then just buy individual plates as you progress it's way more cost effective in the end. You can fit 3 5kg plates on each side. You also then have the option to buy other bars like a EZ Bar or Barbell.

That, right there is the real thing :p, *****offFat is one of the better and more potent fat loss products, illegal of course because it contains Yohimbine.
But Yohimbine makes me feel funny, my body temperature skyrockets and i feel nauseous, I’ll rather use clen if I had to choose.
 
Does anyone still do behind-the-head lat pulldowns?

I have dodgy shoulders and most of the literature online suggest you should'nt as it could lead to shoulder injury (rotor cuff issues iirc?)

But i was watching this pretty ripped guy repping them out yesterday and you could see the contraction in the lat's very clearly..... Seems to be more so than the regular ones...

thoughts?
 
When in doubt, let injury be your guide. Doesn't matter if it works for someone else, if you can't do it because of shoulder issues, find something else. How cr@p will you feel if you can't lift for 3 months because of shoulder injury?

Good advice if you have dodgy shoulders. Also try to warm the rotator cuff properly, use bands etc. I also get a deeper contraction with behind the neck but I lower the weight and use good form to avoid injury when i do it.Ramp up the intensity with 3 second negatives and increase the reps. You have to be smart to train around injury or problem areas. I incorporate the behind the neck presses and pulldowns only twice a month on back and shoulder workouts. If something does not feel right i stop right there.

Been using the Supplements SA incinerate fat burner and now i'm ready to jump to Yohimbine. It does mess with your mood but in this sport its all about the strong mind. After that its probably Clen for me.

I've tried yohimbine and will never touch it again.

My advice - if you want to try yohimbine, take it in the morning when you have nothing important to do. Like a Saturday morning. Do not take any other stimulants at the same time - this includes coffee or Incinerate Fat Burner. Just take one pill on its own and see how you feel after an hour.

Honestly I can see why it is banned, its terrible stuff. I threw mine away.

Absolutely, under no curcumstances ever use Yohimbine when you are hungover. It was probably the closest to death i have even been, no jokes, My bloodpressue when through the roof, i very very nearly went to the hospital.

Funny thing is, Yohimbine is used as an alternative to viagra. Who in the world can have sex while feeling that k@k.

I even tried splitting the powder in the captule in 2 servings. Even half is still to potent for me.
Ironicly its the easiest to obtain between Yohm, Clen and ECA.

ECA remains the safest and cheapest.

Bahahaha you guys.

I'd give my left nut to get my hands on Yohimbine again.

There is no wonder pill. BS Yohimbine is a wonderful thing.

Clen is not miracle drug. Your diet needs to be spot on or else it wont do squad.
Also you cant take it if you have heart problems, and you shake like a mofo, people around you will think you are a alcoholic, no jokes.
Also remember you can only use Clen 1week, 1 week off, otherwise it becomes ineffective, unless you use Betasleep each night before going to bed.

I could not help but still laugh about this at gym last night...I started a new pre-workout - TNT Kevlar NOX. I was terrified of feeling 'funny' from it, but felt just fine and could def feel a difference in how better my muscles coped with the punishment. I also managed to push more exercises in.
 
Took a puff before i hit the gym last night.Thought it would make me not lus to workout but it had the opposite effect and today im broken properly, so I will probably do it again.
