My suggestion is no isolated routine when starting back up. Keep it to a bar press/machine exercise routine and gradually incorporate dumbbells and isolation back into it.

I don't have an answer but the link below was interesting. I've neglected my checkups and bloodwork for a while now but I do remember them on my butt for amino use....

Creatine should be cycled, it's a big nono in the summer heat if you're into sweating/cutting/cardio. I use it to bulk during the cooler months and then drop it during summer's dead dog days of heat.

WebMD info: For improving physical performance: 3.2-6.4 grams daily of a specific beta-alanine product (CarnoSyn, Natural Alternatives International).

New member with this as his second post? Never ceases to amaze me what online personas try to get away with. Also surprises me the mods allowed it.

Pushing yourself to lift heavier too quickly is always a form killer.

64 here, I prefer free weights although I use a few of the machines especially for legs. Like most of the replies I too have been working out since the age of 20. One thing I can share that was a...

Whatever, you do know what whatever means in RL, huh? I have no tolerance for arrogant people that think they're the forum. Most folks read something and move along if they do not agree with what it...

Huh? I have a 5 day routine with weights. My system works just fine, it has since I was in my 20's. I don't think you can classify my routine with light weights either. Thursday is my pull up bar...

Just started working out? Your muscles went into shock, ease into it and stop loading yourself down. Three different exercises, 2 sets max for the first 2-3 weeks. Should you be able to handle twice...

Supersets are all about maxing that muscle group out. Supersets to me mean 1 minute max between sets, my regular routine is 2 minutes between sets.
An example of supersets would be my shoulder...

I disagree with Daniel, helluva weight loss ya did Jake. Protein content is your concern if your time at the gym is extensive, use it before and after. I will warn you and hope you adhere to what I...

Diss the milk, water and a handful of berries. I take my shakes before and after but time on the weightpile is 2-3 hours.

Youtube it. Remember few years back someone asked me why I grip the way I do, one palm out and one palm in. Didn't have an answer other than I guess I picked up a bad habit back in my 20's...*laffs

Interesting thread. I use the Osteo Bi-Flex, comes in a blue bottle, and a combination fish oil/omega 3's daily. I'll have to take a look see at some of these other suggestions see just what the...
