OK, thanks, will try that

I hold my breath, gives core stability through the motion.

Or R650 at xtreme nutrition. Or less depending on running specials online...

I reckon why spend double the money to get something that is only 5% better, unless you are a pro or something.

Relating this to flat screen TVs, I won't be getting a UHD screen because my eyes are the limiting factor and normal HD will be plenty good for me

Is this a meal replacement or a supplement? Sorry new to this and looking to place the order at xn

Whey protein.


Meal replacements generally have less protein more carbs more sugar and some vitamins.

As a "meal replacement" I just use my whey protein mix in some ice plain yogurt and 15g of oats plus a banana

Real food is preferably to supplements, generally speaking. Also how do you train and what is your diet like?

My shoulders aren't sure what they did wrong, but they know they were punished.

3) Start in the Proper Position

All too often people start in the dead hang position with their scapula elevated and their shoulders touching their ears. This is dangerous and incorrect.

When you do this all of the tension is placed on your tendons and ligaments instead of your muscles.

When you get on the bar you want to pull your shoulder blades down and lock your shoulders into their sockets. This is a far safer position and ensures that the stress will be placed directly on the muscles and not the tendons and ligaments.

Diet is pretty simple. Trying to also lose weight also so doing a controlled diet. Gym is 50% cardio and 50% freewieghts / gym eq.

I'm still sure I have an impingement in my right shoulder. And it crunches a lot, too. Makes any sort of overhead exercise a nightmare. BUT, I've started a basic program to try and rehabilitate it. Still lifting, regardless - probably not a good idea, though.

Def steak diet. Pretty much eating normally. Only thing I cut out was sugar.

I used to get a stabbing pain in my shoulder when I used to lift about ten years ago. When I started up again it's mostly gone, so I guess I'm lucky. I do make sure I now stretch and do warmups first.

Not on the "open-market"
