Says the guy wanting to do 500bw squats!

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

you're just jealous.

 

[graedy]

Brings to the idea to try out how many bwsquats I can do at the moment and then set a goal.
Will do this next week...

 

[Zerocrew1984]

i could probably do about 20 bw squats and then die of lack of conditioning.

GOOD WORKOUT..

how did your leg feel going past 225?

my shits still fucked up..and its pissing me off...

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

i went quite low..my knee felt mostly fine. My groin is another story. Start right at the crease of inside of leg and hip and goes up...hope it goes away soon...it's got somewhat better over last couple weeks so i am hoping that continues...my pec felt fine on bench which was great news...

 

[oyaji poi]

I am not surprised. B-vitamins are great at helping CNS recovery.

Can you recommend a B-complex? Something like this: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/country/co.html ??

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/un/vitbcom.html

 

[oyaji poi]

Thanks for the suggestion. I also checked out this one. It's got much more B12 but is much more expensive relative to the one yo posted http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/kal/coenzyme.html

Actually, it's got 1000mcg of B12 compared to the Ultimate Nutrition one which has 50mcg. That seems unusual, almost absurd. Either one has far too much, or the other not enough.

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

I would not worry so much about the insane amounts they put in some of them....if it has 100% of DV it should be fine.

 

[oyaji poi]

k, thanks for the tip.

in that case bulk nutrition has NOW brand B-complex for dirt cheap as well.

 

[Zerocrew1984]

Try some icy hot for your groin Devil, i was having a constant twinge there and stretching and hot baths and what not were ok i guess. but the first time i tried icy hot the next day the twinge was gone and its still gone.

 

[FATKID]

I'm glad to hear that your injuries are healing up somewhat.

Not being able to lift at 100% is a terrible feeling.

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

Thanks guys. The 275 bench was a PR of sorts. I <3 Beta-Alanine.

top 3 supps from which I feel direct effects:

#1 caffeine+other stimulants
#2 beta-alanine
#3 creatine

Groin pull is irritating because i cant generate any real strength at the core. I will start putting more menthol or whatever else on it and massaging it more frequently to see if that helps.

 

[Zerocrew1984]

quit being such a cheap ass and just get icy hot. I've heard good things though abou crytogel. What are you taking with your BA and at what times? I never got anything from mine.

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

I take it in 2-4 dosages throughout the day in 1-2g amounts(once with my creatine in apple juice). I can feel faster recovery and more endurance. I can all but point to the BA for the improved endurance on bw squats, high rep squats/bench yesterday, etc...

 

[Zerocrew1984]

where did you get it from?

 

[Lusst]

where did you get it from?

I picture Devil Jr. always walking around with a big black trenchcoat full of prescription medication.

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

I got it from Customnutritionwarehouse.com.....common zero I said it already on another page....

psst lusst you want some shit? I got 'teh clear'....

I am going to have a while filling out all the supps I take for the medical testing form I got to fill out for police. They;ll have a good laugh at 20+ supps...and I dont even take a protein supplement.
