Look for optimum nutrition gold standard on amazon or something. edit: if you want something for pre workout just take 200mg caffeine. | ||

The cheapest combo was that 5kg and 1kg together. Thats a lot of protein. Thinking of it and next month when i am changing to "advanced routine" going to buy them i guess. They should last for 1/3 of a year!  God i spend too much time in chat rooms, because i always want to correct myself and make more posts...maybe postcount collector :/ | ||

They tell me the quality is good, and unbeatable for the price. But I doubt with shipping it'll be worth it : / | ||

45 lbs x 4-4-4 Lat Pulldowns 130 x 10-10-10 Seated OH Press 75 x 5-5-5 Rear Delt Row 95 x 10-10-10 Cable Standing Ab Crunches 110 x 10-10 90 x 15 Standing Calves 200 x 15-15-15 --- Didn't get the ab crunches like I wanted to, but their actually pretty hard. Resetting my press with as strict form as I can manage. Wrists both hurt now, but it'll hopefully be alright. | ||

Turns out the bar WAS 45lb lmao (it felt very light during squats but I definitely noticed how much heavier it was during the bench) Any suggestions on what to do? Do I just keep going up by 5 on what I did today? | ||

But I have no idea how their international shipping is so that might be too expensive. | ||

but I'm back, started SS advanced novice last week.Currently at Squats: 205lbs/93kg Front squats: 135lbs/61kg Bench: 175lbs/79kg OHP: 85lbs/39kg Deadlift: 225lbs/102kg bodyweight chinups and pullups, everything three sets of five. Might have to add in some arm workouts (blasphemy!) since they have gotten a little smaller since I switched from a really crappy bb split earlier this year. We shall see... | ||

Right now I have 3 bicep exercises ontop of pull ups, and I'm curious if it's worthwhile to do. If so, should I replace them with one of my bicep lifts or add another lift. Right now I have: Standing barbell curl EZ bar preacher curl Sitting alternating curls And I do back the same day so I get some bicep action too. If you want them guns, isolation for arms of course is fine. But there is absolutely no need to do 3-4 different exercises for biceps alone. Seriously, after working your back, pick two exercises and do like 6 sets total in a higher rep range and you will be more than good. Personally, I like Hammer Curls and would definitely do them over anything but barbell curls. | ||

Personally, I like Hammer Curls and would definitely do them over anything but barbell curls. Personally I feel like between rows, and chins I get PLENTY of work on my biceps to keep them "balanced" to the rest of my body. I don't understand all the guys at my gym who are trying to walk around looking like upside down triangles. I don't do any extra bicep exercises. There would be no way I could reliably progresso n them after rows and chins anyway. | ||

Bench: 110kg 5-5-5 Deadlift: 205kg x 5 PR; 180kg x 5 Dips: 5-5-5 Farmers Walk: 40kg DBs for 5 or 6 sets till failure That was a pretty fantastic workout. Bench is finally the same as my PR in march 2010, but back then it was only for 1 set. Deadlift was hard but great, a new PR. First time I ever did speed-sets with squats, I believe the weight was a little bit too high. I want to do a little bit more conditioning, so I guess Farmers Walks are pretty good for that. Got maybe 25meters during the first walk, but that dropped pretty hard in the following walks. @sjarl: what weight did you have to carry for Farmers Walks at your Strongmen competition? | ||

There would be no way I could reliably progresso n them after rows and chins anyway. Well for me, my arms are a lot weaker than legs. Just comparing my ratio of bench to squat. it's like 1:1.6. Also personally I feel the powerlifters have pretty small arms for their builds, and no, I don't need or want those gigantic arms, but I would prefer to have them bigger as opposed to the legs. As for my back exercises beforehand, I do lateral cable pull, pull ups, and one other one. But at that point I don't feel like I've exhausted my biceps nearly enough if I compare them to my back. | ||

I need to fine better food/protein sources. eshlow is probably gonna hate me for this one: You are 105lb for crying out loud, if you wanna grow and cannot get enough healthy food at home, just get yourself 200g of chocolate for probably 1$ each day and stuff it down your throat throughout the day. That's 1100 calories extra, that should be enough to get you to a reasonable weight pretty fast and then you can still proceed to eat healthy. But for now, you gotta put some weight on your frame. | ||

Nah, if you're gonna eat junk and take in the kcals chocolate is a much better choice than most other junk food. I keep a bag of chocolate around sometimes. | ||
