I think there's a lot of truth to this. That's one reason I have stopped taking so many supplements. I do drink coffee before I workout most times. Like a preworkout is nice an do feel like it gives me a bit more of a rush and pump, but I don't know if it's worth it. Plus they banned the original 1MR....sad day lol. I can definetly tell a difference in when I used the Animal Flax Paks for my joints. Any other supplements beyond that and I really feel it's hot or miss or if people hope/convince themselves it's working.

DRINK COFFEE.....EAT MEAT.....AND PUMP THAT HEAVY @*S WEIGHT.

 

[JPS]

Man y'all know there's a crossfit thread right?

 

[Majorbread]

placebo effect = working though, technically. It's just not scientifically proven

I feel like BCAA's are only effective when lifting in a fasted state, outside of that not much use IMO

Same I fast through the AM and I've only ever taken BCAA back when I would lift in the morning before I ate my first meal.

iirc the 2 main proves uses of bcaas is taking them if you're working out in a fasted state to minimize catabolism and in-between meals to spike muscle protein synthesis.
but.....the real only good reason is to have something tasty to sip on while you workout.

Question for my swole famb

How important are leg days, and working your legs in general?

I've always been big on strengthening my base and my core (way more than my arms).

anybody in here more focused on developing their base than the arms?

 

[calibeebee]

Branch Chain Amino Acids(BCAAs) : not effective for improving performance; studies show promise for immune system support and reduction of postexercise fatigue.

And while we're at it......

Glutamine: not effective

Beta-alanine: studies show promise of effectiveness for buffering muscle pH in athletes performing high intensity (sprint) exercise

Nitric oxide/Argenine alpha-ketoglutarate(AAKG): effectiveness unknown because of lack of research.

Like you said, it's your base. Everything starts from the ground and how you use your legs(heels) to drive weights. I always loved leg days, mainly because most people are too sissy to squat anywhere near 90° lol. I always thought it was cool, until I was able to start buying nice jeans (see I was always really big 330 at one time and could never get decent jeans), then I got to a decent jean size and they were nice around the waist, but my quads and calves were getting tight in them. Made me reevaluate a little haha

Interesting. I used to take the Dymatize Glutamine like the pharmacutical stuff.....white and tastless lol. Maybe it was placebo, but I could take it with my shake and have like zero pain the next day after leg day.....or any body part for that matter

My introduction to strength training was competitive team sports so developing core and lower body has always been a primary focus.

These days I lift for aesthetics and my priorities are

1. Shoulders
2. Chest
3. Legs
4. Back

Get enough core work doing compound movements and arms are of least importance.

Support system is the other important. Your back and legs.

But I treat rything equal.

For my shredded bros,

I play soccer 2x a week, is this enough cardio for cutting or should I up it and incorporate jogs etc.? Pretty much all HIIT at this point

 

[m boiz]

And @M BOIZ aka cornbread strong. Don't make me release the hidden tapes of you taking bcaa....but you telling other people not to. I ssaw your reviews on amazon.

Depends on your diet. If you're already operating at a caloric deficit then there's no real need for cardio unless you're tryin to loose a certain amount of weight in a certain time frame and the caloric deficit from dieting won't metabolize fat at a fast enough rate.

That's fine...You don't have to so cardiovascular to begin if you're already at a deficit.

I do about 30-45 min a week. The pros do about an hour a week while cutting.
