What brand of honey mustard do you use on your pre-show Jimmy John's sandwich? lol. The bread, turkey, and cheese brings the macros to 30p/48c/9f.

Thanks everyone! I took a 5g dose post workout yesterday and I also took full body measurements. I'll measure again at a week out to compare against saturation. Hopefully I'll gain a bit of...

I'm about 4 weeks out and seriously considering adding creatine mono (3-5g/day). I know it increases strength and helps hold water in the muscles. How much difference is it going to make me appear?...

I competed in an NPC show and I'm almost positive they had decided the results before the night show routines. I was most nervous about the routine portion going into the show and quickly realized...

Reading through your thread has been extremely motivational for me. It's also somewhat frustrating because your squat strength is out of this world and almost unimagineable. You've given me the...

Gosh I really suck at updating this! A recent pic @ about 162lbs:

Layne, if I were into dudes, I'd be into you. No homo

Thanks Steve. Yes, friendship is what I value most in life. I'll start updating this now (probably with less detail than my initial post). I'm just so busy with work and what-not.

Layne, I'm curious to hear how you go about finding that balance between strength and form. With compound exercises (squats, deadlifts, etc.) it's much easier to determine when you are improperly...

Hi all.

Background: I'm 23. I live in the wonderful state of Minnesota (born 'n raised). Go Twins! I have a BA in Psychology but I unfortunately don't see my myself using the degree much in my...

Okay, so maybe I am taking things a little too serious and should relax a bit. Last night I went to my grandma's for dinner. I ate 4oz chicken and two whole wheat flatbreads (27/32/5). I then...

So I did my first show: 1st place in my class, bantamweight, weighing in at a whopping 135.5lbs! Ha, and I still didn't have shredded glutes :/. I had an absolute blast! Dang was that fun! Thanks...

If you start prepping so early in the morning the day of the show, what is your sleep schedule like the night before? Do you go back to sleep between each meal?

I spent about 2 hours researching peak week tutorials yesterday morning and ended up befuddled. Without a personal trainer, I have no idea what I'm doing- everything has been an experiment (and peak...

UPDATE & Questions, please:

I've been following his article with good results. You can drink the dextrose during or after lifting as long as you get your low GI carbs within 30 minutes of finishing that shake (personally, I...

First off, the last time I checked my college psychology textbook, there was a large chapter titled "Motivation," so I am not sure what you are trying to say.

Second, using "kid" wasn't meant to...

Attempting to motivate the kid indicates i'm misunderstanding the topic? I think you misunderstood- I'm not being a hater.
