Checking in on week 2 of cycle 2:

My current lifts:

Squat: 105
Bench: 150 (75's dumbbells)
Bent over rows: 105
OHP: 75
SLDL: 105
Curls: 70

Last week I was forced to miss medium day (week 3 of 1st cycle) so I waited an extra day and did another heavy day. So it was going to be 2 heavy days for week 3 then work week 4 as normal.

Week...

In terms of proper form for the bent-over row, should I bring the bar up to belly button, upper abs or lower chest? I have the 45 degree angle part down but not sure where to bring the bar. Thanks in...

Hey, sorry to waste your time with this, I finally sacked up tonight and just did the OHP. My problem is that I lift by myself so finding my 10 rep max on certain exercises was difficult without a...

I've seen you recommend the arnold press as a substitution for the OHP if working with db's. Would seated shoulder press work adequately instead? Even though I do some separate rotator cuff...

I apologize if you've already answered this but is use of a machine acceptable for bent over rows?

Also, there is absolutely no substitution allowed for the stiff legged deadlifts, correct? It's...

Trying to max out noob gains then preserve as much as possible. I realize I'm not going to get hyooge cutting a bunch of weight but may as well get as strong and preserve as much muscle as I can...

Thanks brahs, going to give all-pros a try and see if I can make some more gains before moving on to splits. Appreciate it.

Did you ever do a novice routine? Do you recall how strong you were when you came off of it?

Just got back into lifting a few months ago and am wondering if I should jump into a split routine like PPL/upper-lower or a novice program like all-pro's?

I ask this because I'm not a complete...

I've eaten progurts for years now and have done a lot of experimenting with it. By far the tastiest option, if you don't mind a protein blend and spending the extra $, is mixing fat-free plain greek...

I'm at 160g protein a day and one scoop (24g or 18g, depending) of protein/day but I almost never make a shake with it. I find progurts to be a lot more filling.

I like to keep a few tricks up my sleeve in terms of plateau busting: EC stack, increased cardio, decreased calories, etc. That's why some suggest to do the least amount possible (highest calorie...

I'm pretty sure this type of weight loss (and it's important to distinguish weight loss from fat loss) has been achieved in this time frame on "The Biggest Loser." However, they did 8 hours of...

Thanks for the replies.

No. I made it a point to state that I would not supplement additional creatine when taking the ergonine. Did you even read my initial post?

Lolwut?

Anyways not sure what you're getting at bro. Go fap, drink a coke zero and log back in. Not going to throw back a bunch of supps without first talking to knowledgeable people. If my...

I can't speak for others but for myself I'm always going to seek the opinions of better informed people when mixing a bunch of different stuff, OTC or not. I'd imagine there is potential for...

Went with the nanaberry based on consumer reviews. Seems to be a great staple supp - I'm particularly excited that it contains betaine which I've been wanting to try for a while now. I'm sure I'll...

The title of this thread was intended to be hyperbole/tongue in cheek. I mainly just wanted to ensure that none of the supplements I took were dangerous to take in conjunction with the others and...
