They're solid belts, 10mm is fine for your needs, the biggest decision for you would be whether to go lever or prong.

More quality choices here too. - http://www.undergroundelite.com.au/Lifting-Belts/

I don't understand what those using CBL are trying to achieve... I touched on it in my meal timing video but my reasoning why some people might be getting good results on it, well other than they are hitting their weekly macros, would be their choice of supplementation but not appropriate discussion here.

Unlike others that follow Kiefer, I don't believe there is any metabolic advantage to CBL. I just do it because I like it.

Fair enough... someone following a macro/timing protocol because they enjoy it and feel good doing it is the best reason to do so.

1. I am busy as hell during the day and have no time to sit down and really enjoy a meal. 14 hours at the gym = Sludge for most of my meals.
2. I train in the morning so I liked to be all loaded up on glycogen from the backload the night before. Placebro effect? Probably.
3. Eating 250g of carbs in a sitting is awesome.

Just do a search in here & the first thread, there's been plenty of belt talk. If you decide to get one from UGE, give them a call. They'll answer any question you have.

This Exactly x2, though I smash 400+cho. I don't feel that there is any advantage, just easier for me, less of a hassle during the today, and I sleep like a bawwsss at night.

On week 3 of JasonDB's intermediate routine. I've never had so much fun lifting as I have with the Monday/Weds 5x5 days. The Friday/metabolic days however, I feel like I'm dying about 1/3 of the way through. It's the weirdest hate-love-hate relationship ever.

My top sets on Madcow was 4*300 squat and 4*185 bench. Started conservatively with 5*5*255 and 5*5*155 on JasonDB. Already up 15lbs on squats and 10lbs on bench 5*5 with gas in the tank. Is this real life? Guess that fact that I'm finally eating in a surplus might have something to do with it.

I find this key.

I go to the gym for Fun, to me it's a sweet fun balancing failing and overcoming everyday.

The metabolic day is brutal. That is why it is done last in the rotation and with 2 days off after. LoL

[psychodiver9]

Pulled 395x1. Missed it last session. 10 lb PR. Attempted 415 but didn't get it. Soon

I was thinking of starting this routine when I bulk. You said it was just an example of how to set it up though. Are you planning to post up any more intermediate routines soon?

Yeah I'll try to do an intermediate upper/lower in the next month actually in full detail.

Keep it going, brah. I really enjoy your videos (minus the homoerotic bicep shot, but you need to keep those gay guys tuning in, am I right? ) and I'm looking forward to seeing your take on the U/L split. I'll have to test drive one of them when my cut is finished and it's bulky time.

Sounds good brah. I've always done U/L but I'd be open to 3x a week FB too.

You aren't kidding. This would OBLITERATE me on a cut.

EDIT: What do you recommend I do when it comes time to cut? Cut back on volume on the same routine, or switch to a strength routine like Madcow?

[snrygo]

Pinched a nerve in my neck today,, was the last straw.

Taking some time off lifting to restore mindset and heal
