Just two questions! :)

1) I cycle EC stack, mainly, for its appetite suppressing nature. I think the actual fat burning effect of it is insignificant. Anyways, I only take 1/2 of the typical...

Maybe breakfast + coffee...some pushups and 5-10 min jogging? Not sure lol..

Being sore is usually a sign of a good workout session
Not being sore is not necessarily a sign of a poor workout session....right?

I did my first "test" day of chest/tri/shoulders.

I havn't been consistently lifting for a while so I forgot my rep ranges. For the 1st bench, I undershot my strength and ended up doing 13 reps on...

Question about rows: What grip/width do you suggest? Underhand and close to the body for more lat involvement? or....overhand and wider grip? for more upper back involvement...neutral grip?

So, 10-3-3-3-3...until 50 is the "ideal" setup?

Question about finding out the 10 RMs.

I would like to take 3 days to find my 10 RMs for each D1/D2/D3 exercises. However, I have a question about this.

When I'm there to find the 10 RMs,...

IMHO, more so than the exercise selection and rep ranges etc, how will you be progressing?
