Great idea John! I haven't been able to do dips in a while due to pain in my shoulder when doing them so I feel left out on that thread - Pull ups and Chin up are good though - very little pain. Will be posting some vids soon.

Awesome Work John... I Love the Weighted Pull Ups!!! I need to get me one of those belts. That will be one of my next Investments.
Anyway, here is one of my videos with me doing weighted pull ups using my Granddaughter as weight, lol

Performing these Pull Ups with my Granddaughter that you see me do in this video is something that I did with my 3 kids when they were young.

The Hard Gainers Protein Formula




Designed to Support:

Enhanced Muscularity and Density

Massive Gains in Size & Strength

Enhanced with Glutamine and BCAAs

What is Infinite Mass�?

Are you ready to trigger massive gains in size and strength? In each serving to help increase your caloric intake more efficiently Infinite Mass� gives you the proper amount of carb/protein/fat ratio. Formulated with a precise blend of 50 grams of high quality whey protein, 74 grams of complex carbohydrates (mostly from waxy maize), Glutamine, BCAAs, and essential nutrients, Infinite Mass� may activate anabolic action via increased protein synthesis and nitrogen retention, elevated GH and IGF-1 secretion, accelerated glycogen synthesis and improved cell volumization.

The extras; Beyond the Basics...

-610 calories per serving in water; 850-plus calories when mixed with low fat milk.

-50 grams of high quality whey protein per serving.

-74-plus grams of carbohydrates, including waxy maize, to support fueling of hardcore workouts and aid in the replenishment of glycogen stores.

- No excess sugar.

- 5 grams of added Glutamine to prevent muscle deterioration.

- 5 grams of added BCAAs (Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine) for muscle enhancing, endurance building and muscle growth.

- MCT�s (medium chain triglycerides) to increase caloric content while allowing you to pack on the weight without the added fat storage.



Start Building Muscle Fast with Infinite Mass�

Need to pack on more muscle? For many who are striving to be bigger, have faster metabolisms, weaker appetites and busy lifestyles make consuming enough calories through food alone a big challenge.

While trying to gain mass not following through with the proper nutrition is one of the biggest mistakes you can make. An understanding of what training does to the body is critical. During exercise whether you are bodybuilding, power-lifting, or strength training, muscle tissue breaks down. In order for your muscles to recover, repair, and grow, your body needs carbohydrates, protein, fat and essential nutrients.

The body needs fat to survive and thrive. Fats play an essential role in hormone production, which in turn is responsible for growth and strength increases. From the added medium chain triglycerides in Infinite Mass� Hard Gainers will benefit. In their quest to developing a strong, solid, muscular physique without any fat storage Infinite Mass� increases caloric content.

Carbohydrates supply the body with the energy it needs to function and helps your muscles absorb protein more efficiently. They are the main source of blood glucose which is the major fuel source for all the body�s cells and the only source for the brain and red blood cells. Glucose can be obtained and stored easily in the body; but when your body is depleted of carbohydrates, glucose will be made from protein. Simply put, if you�re not eating enough carbohydrates your body will start to break down precious muscle tissue for glucose. Each serving of Infinite Mass� has over 74 grams of complex carbohydrates (including waxy maize) for accelerated glycogen synthesis; giving you larger, fuller and rounder muscles.

Proteinis not only a vital building component for muscle tissue, but it also plays a major role in your daily performance. By being a direct precursor to building muscle and essential amino acids, the content from whey protein will help your muscles grow and recover quicker. Whey Protein is also responsible for synthesizing anabolic hormones such as insulin, growth hormone and IGF-1; which influence muscle growth, recovery, strength and absorption of nutrients into the muscle. Infinite Mass� gives you 50 grams of high quality whey protein. This is why to help boost anabolism and prevent muscle breakdown immediately following a workout you want to load your muscles with Infinite Mass�.

VIDEO DETAILS
When I uploaded my video entry for the MMA Movie Star' Video Contest, at this point, I still did not know how to cut and slice my films. So I timed my shots, to make them work. I looked through my footage from previous videos, to see what I could make work. There were very strict rules and guidelines to follow for this contest, and knowing that I fudged my previous entries, I payed close attention. Some of the contest requirements were as follows...
Contest Requirements: - Video must be between :30 and 2:00 - No nudity, swearing, real violence or blood - No background music, logos, or 3rd party video - All identifiable people must sign a release.
So I carefully looked through my footage, trying to find clips that would not only work under the 2 minute limit, but would show creativity, talent and originality, as what the panel of judges were also looking for .

FIRST SEGMENT ~ SKIPPING ROPE
As you view the first segment of my entry, I am skipping rope, I love to jump rope, and as you know it is popular with MMA fighters as well as boxers to develop the lungs and legs and improve coordination and footwork.

SECOND SEGMENT ~ CREATIVE, UNIQUE, ORIGINAL... HITTING HEAVY BAG WHILE HANGING UPSIDE DOWN ON GRAVITY BOOTS
The second segment is the element of surprise, lol. As I did not know that my son was actually taping me, as I laughed at the camera and said, 'Are you video taping me'. as well as performing some basic stretch exercises, and Introducing my very unique, creative and original talent of hitting a heavy bag while upside down on Gravity Boots!!! Also at this point, I had already trained for several hours, because we were taking various takes for a new workout video. I was fatigued and over worked my workout. My body was screamin' and as I dismount, my boot gets hung up a little on the bar. I successfully dismount, only to show Good Sportsmanship and Honor with Thumbs Up and a Smile!!!

THIRD SEGMENT ~ MILITARY PULL UPS
My third segment I am performing military pull ups, (while enforcing the Isometric tension), considered one of the largest mind game exercises, but Improves overall strength, and mental focus significantly, also showing the core strength of the abs as well as my determination and undying dedication to the sport!!!

FOURTH SEGMENT ~ THE APPLE NEVER FALLS FAR FROM THE TREE
My last segment, just making it under the 2 minute time limit, I am under an old apple tree, and the apple you see me catch at the end of my entry clip, depicts the old' saying, 'The Apple Never Falls Far From The Tree.' With me catching the apple, I know God is with me and I am successfully taking control of my life, I am Focused and My Faith and Courage is Strong. I am not sure what direction my road is taking me, but I am content and I do know that I am on the right path.

Cyclo-Clenz Caps


The power of your immune system � unleashed. Keep your body in optimal shape with this cleansing and strengthening supplement. Many of the substances you consume each day such as water, food and supplements are heavier than the substances your body was designed to eliminate. Not to mention all the toxins and pollutants that you consume through your food. All these �heavy� substances are damaging to your liver which is your body�s cleansing organ. Cyclo Clenz� unleashes the power of your immune system by helping to detox the liver and eliminate all those harmful �heavy� residues.

Using the power of a micronized vegetarian LiCap liquid capsule that improves the absorption rate through the blood stream, Cyclo Clenz� maintains its potency while delivering key ingredients to the right place at the right time. With a combination of the most abundant antioxidants, Cyclo Clenz� helps strengthen and support optimal liver function while maintaining a healthy and powerful immune system.
Cyclo Clenz� is effective in:

Regenerating and detoxifying the liver
Boosting antioxidants to protect the liver from free radicals
Strengthening the immune system
Dissolving toxins and pollutants in the body
Restoring enzyme levels back to normal
Enhancing muscularity


I have used this product for the last 5 days and while it isn't a "sexy" supplement---meaning you will not notice extreme pumps, strength gains etc from it like Juggernaut and Carno-Cre, it is a very necessary component in any supplement regimen. The liver has a wide range of functions, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and production of biochemicals necessary for digestion and keeping it healthy with a post or intra-supplement cycle detox will give you great health benefits and better long term results.

Think of it as a long term investment in overall health
