Creatine is only effective in short term uses. The extensive research done with creatine has only been for short term uses. No long term study has yetdetermined benefits.

*sigh*
There's no such thing as being able to pinpoint fat loss. Just do cardio until that area starts to recede in fatness.

One month ago...
150 lbs body weight
bench press - 105lb (5 rep)
dumb bell bench press - 25lb (each hand) (5 rep)
military dumb bell press - 20lb (each hand) (5 rep)
Dumb bell curls - 20lb (10 rep)
Today
155 lbs body weight
bench press - 125lbs (5 rep)
dumb bell bench press - 40lb (each hand) (5 rep)
military dumb bell press - 35lb (each hand) (5 rep)
Dumb bell curls - 35lb (10 rep)
Those are my most note worthy gains.
I am doing the "Taylor Lautner" fitness schedule and diet @ 2700-3000 CLEAN cals a day
http://www.projectswole.c...-routine-to-gain-muscle/
Looking to do 5lbs a month until I hit 180lbs and the do a cut using HIRT for two months.
After that I might try a test cycle. (assuming I've reached my natural plateau)
I am an ectomorph body type 155lbs @ 6'-0" btw

As stated. You cannot 'target' fat loss. The body fat % in general needs to be reduced. Start fast tracking your metabolism and sweatingit out an hour a day. Burn more cals then you consume every day.
By doing 'leg' oriented exercises you can strengthen your legs, but in terms of the fat tissue surrounding your muscle tissue.....start sweating.
P.s. this should be stickied somewhere. YOU CANNOT TARGET FAT LOSS

Another sick WWF themed workout song...
Taking a hit to your ego FTL
3 weeks ago I try maxing out on my deadlift and I did 315 easily. Today I try 325 and I had to drop the weight while halfway up because I lost my grip.
It had me heart-broken man...putting the weights back was the longest minute of my life. I dont feel like ever DLing again after that
On the bright side, I began experimenting with front squats today and did over 200+ a.ss to grass. I'm liking this exercise a lot since I'm feeling ita lot in my quads, hips, lower back and abs. It requires more balance than traditional squats...I think I'm gonna be doing them regularly from now on.I'm kind of surprised that one's shoulders can handle so much weight without much discomfort. I used to see guys at the gym front squatting 225thinking that they were super strong...now I realize that it isn't that hard at all.

Damn you serious? I feel great after doing them. I only feel sore the day after each exercise on that particular body part.

I wish more people would understand that. I just SMH when I see 300 lbs dudes doing 100 crunches on the station thinking they're going to berocking a 6 pack set up soon.
I love working out in the winter. Something about going to the gym in the cold and warming your body up with cardio before lifting.

-your whole body will get stronger
-increased testosterone production in your body (see above)
-great way to work your hamstrings, hips, abs, back, forearms
-with proper technique you should not feel pain for a month. Maybe 2-3 days of soreness but you stop feeling sore after doing them for a while
If you hate doing regular DLs...try doing Stiff-legged DLs...100x more pain. I havent done them in 3 years

I just finished up my first semester of grad school. It was a lot more intense than I anticipated. In addition to that, I'm trying to keepbusy during the winter break with leisure reading now. As oppose to being online and watching T.V. all day.
I'm bored tonight so I'm checking in while catching some NBA on the tube.
On another note, I peeped older pictures of myself from the old laptop and man, I am disgusted at my former self. Should've done this years ago.

Back 2 years ago, I took some supplement that had creatine and some other stuff in it. I went to the gym and worked out. I felt great, but after the workout, Ifainted.
I didnt want to touch supplements after that happened. Not too sure what caused it. Only been taking protein now

Theres truth to this. Creatine does affect your liver and kidneys.
When I started, there was only creatine and andro. Now I see all this klyconine, xmonocreaklokyne...type @*@%.
You guys have no idea what this stuff is doing to your bodies on the inside. And honestly, all that stuff is a waste. Creatine is a waste if your aiming to puton PERMANENT muscle. Your body will adapt to it within a month and you'll lose all your gains afterwards. And as you take it more and more, after awhileyou stop responding.
