    Which is why you don't buy processed garbage. Can't remember the last time I bought something that came in a box or a container, besides oats. And I must've been thinking of ketogains, sorry. I knew it was something gains lol. You don't NEED carbs to fuel your workouts, but carbs are more...

    Yeah my current goals are 405/275/495. I honestly think the deadlift might be the hardest unless something clicks soon with sumo. The squat I should hit in the coming months and the bench is only 25 more pounds and I really feel my technique is improving with each session, but I've been stalling...

    Pretty much. I play to my strengths but I've been hammering away on the bench press lately. I'm just worried about my elbows and shoulders from the abuse.

    Your body will not use fat as a source until all the alcohol is gone. So yes, it could be a problem. Even still, plateaus are very normal and sometimes you need a "whoosh." Refeeds are usually the easiest way to do this. As for hitting the weights, if you want to do that while on keto I'd...

    It's a major weak point for me both in terms of strength and hypertrophy. My delts seem to have no problem growing, but my chest is just lagging. I also just started incorporating more "iso" chest work like dumbbell bench and flyes instead of just benching and doing bench accessory work (namely...

    I mean, all of my abs are showing so I would assume I'm under 15%.

    Well that's more what I was wondering -- what bf% people just assume someone is at. And I have no idea what bf% I'm at in that picture. Maybe 15%, maybe 12%, I doubt any lower than that.

    With that sort of routine, you'll never pack on size. Like you said, 192 you'll be lean as fuck but nothing to show for it.

    That's crazy to me. 288 and you're full of 1000 cals? I literally eat more than that per meal (bullking near 4k atm). Good luck on your journey man. I'd recommend educating yourself regarding nutrition and trying to change your lifestyle and not relying on a "system."

    I've contemplated it, and the beta isn't necessary but who doesn't love some tingles? I'd skip the caffeine personally. If anything I should probably just buy some pure aminos but I like the energy blend and bodybuilding was running a 30% off deal so I stocked up.

    Some people need the stims, and really swear by products like Cannibal Ferox and Mr. Hyde. I don't, the only pre I take is amino energy on an empty stomach at 5 am lol. It has some caffeine in it, but it's mostly just an amino blend that keeps the hunger staved off for a few hours. All...

    Lol it's fine. When you're only doing 4-6 reps in the 80%+ range, the volume is hardly taxing. My squat went from 315 to 365 in 2 months squatting 4-5 times a week. I'm now squatting every day. It's more about training motor patterns and your CNS, not trying to build muscle.

    Started the Bulgarian method. Third day in and I'm already fucking so much more limber when it comes to squatting and benching. I'm guessing I'm going to have to back off my accessory work eventually. Been doing back work every day.

    You're not going to ruin your back doing deadlifts... and stop fucking hyphenating it holy shit that irritates me. Your chance of injury is just as high snapping weights at ridiculous speeds. It's all a matter of technique, and the truth is olympic lifts take FAR MORE technique than a...

    I'll tell you right now what works: Protein Creatine That's it. That's all you need. Want to take fish oil and a multi to cover your micro bases? That's fine. Need aminos because you workout fasted? Go for it. Other than that, just grab some protein powder if you have trouble hitting...

    I workout at 5 AM, when I leave the gym I'm typically shaking all over the place and I don't eat until I get to work at 9. Sucks ass. I couldn't imagine waiting 3 more hours.

    This song still remains a beast. And Alive in Athens is one of the best live recordings I've ever fucking heard. But I mean... they'vealwaysbeen cheesy. I find it odd it took you years to come to that realization lol. Something Wicked is still a great album from front to back.

    I've done IF and keto. Both were a pain. I never felt more energy, I felt foggy and constipated lmao. If it works for you that's fine, but it definitely didn't work for me. I'll eat my carbs.

    5x5 becomes garbage after like 3 months. Jump on a real program, or learn how to build one yourself. I currently run GZCL, but I'm most likely going to begin the Bulgarian Method for squatting once I come back from vacation and use GZCL's template for bench and deadlift.
