Today's Order - 2018 Part 5: Double scooping ALL the supplements

[SSDC5]

I picked up some Amnesia and more good old Fade Out. Who will win?



I was a runner through high school. Never competitive. PR's were 5:23 mile, :56 400m, 19:00 5k. Then about 5 years later, after I started lifting weights and stopped running much, I ran 400m in 62 seconds officially a couple times, and 1.5 miles in about 11 minutes. Oye

I probably wouldn't want to try that again now, as it would most likely be even more disappointing

4:32 mile, 1:59 800m, 16:22 5k... exchanged running for lifting around 7 years ago

[Rob1882]

There were a few samples sent out a while ago, there are YouTube reviews if you search for it (I can't link them because forum rules). Other than those samples and the PricePlow review that Moo just posted, no one else will have had their hands on it yet AFAIK.

The place in NYC had an event with tubs of OL protein + free OL shirt this past Saturday tho, so some people-must already have it their fairly big store in NYC.

Gingerbread and Fruit Loops doe might hasta try :P gotta compare them too MAN Iso-protein's in quality

[Farley1324]

I don't know much about what constitutes a "good time" for a runner, but those seem like good numbers. When I ran, I would just run for time (45-90 minutes) and not track distance, or I'd do hill sprints. Just enjoyed the mental aspects.

Haven't gone for a distance run in ages, but something tells me I wouldn't last these days. On the plus side, since focusing strictly on strength based work, my knees have improved tenfold. Heavy squatting honestly feels super healthy for my knees after the years of running. Used to always have knee pain, now I never experience it. *knock on wood*

They seem fast as **** to me today, but for example, when I ran the 5:23 mile, it was at a small meet, I think just a duo of us vs 1 other school, and I was just entering the second turn...so about 180 meters left to go...when the front runners crossed the finish line.

I did anchor the 4x400 which was ****ing tits, but I was the slowest of the 4 on the team and we had a couple faster guys that just had too many events and we didn't prioritize the relay enough to take them off other stuff (like the individual 400m) (and didn't want to bring them down with the slower relay lol). I always told the guys that if they gave me a good lead, I wouldn't let their last guy (often the fastest goes last) pass me. That really, really challenged me sometimes. Coach knew it which is why I went last. I ran the fastest when I was last and risked losing the like 15 yard lead I was given. Fun as all hell to beat the next guy by a micron. I'd always get caught around halfway because their anchor would take off like a bat out of hell thinking, you know, fastest guy last, I gotta ****ing fly...but it would be too fast, when he caught me he'd be ****ing dead already, and then have to to around on the outside...but I was saving the best stuff for last so balls out for everybody down the straight basically a battle of wills I almost always won, by about a micron

God I miss that

I was competitive at high jump. Lots of 2nd place finishes to the other high jumper on our team. Official PR at a meet was 6'2". We once won a meet, at the very end, everybody else was finished even relays, when we took 1-2 in the high jump to win by a point

Also, our conference had the cross country and track/field state champions of the time in it. Then at sectionals we ran against the Gary (Indiana) schools. We lost a lot.

4:32 mile, 1:59 800m, 16:22 5k... exchanged running for lifting around 7 years ago

See, that's competitive. That would have got me a front runner spot in high school

[Farley1324]

Best race I ever ran was anchor the 4x400 my senior year at the Conference meet. The guy caught me, and actually passed me, but he did the 'too soon, jr' they usually did trying to cover ground on the lead I was given, I passed him back, and we went back and forth like 6 times over the final 100. I won.

And finished 2nd to last out of the conference. Yeah, that's about how good we were. We didn't finish last in the conference 4x400, that was winning LMAO

There were often state champs on the track at the same time, so, ouch

[BenBlue]

Sounds like good times. I miss the days of organized sports.

[SSDC5]

See, that's competitive. That would have got me a front runner spot in high school

It was decent, I qualified for provincial championships in 800m in my last year but didn't go. Top 3 would have been low 1:50's.

My best finish in cross-country was 20th at provincial championships.

We had a killer team in my age group, finished 2nd at provincial XC championships as a team and came 1-2-3 in 800m city championships one year.

best race I ever ran was the mile when I was a sophomore in highschool. lifetime best of 6:10.

I don't think I've legit ran since then.

Heard some feedback on the flavoring. "Too light" is the take away I've heard so far. Curious to hear others as it gets out more.

Always a fan of Fade Out but have not tried Amnesia. Thing is I'm a sucker for powders for flavor and the drink especially in sleep aids. Now let me tell you of the true winner, Anesthetized.

[crpav]

To jump in on running discussion, used to really enjoy running. At my peak athletic form before blowing up my knee I would run for an hour or so everyday, yes everyday. I sacrificed lifting at the time for running. I also played basketball for about 3 hours 2 times a week. It all came crashing down during a pick up game when I landed on my knee wrong. I was actually back to running again 2 weeks later but felt something wasn't fully right. Later that summer during softball running to first I blew it up again and worse which required surgery.

Running now sucks.

I believe that

[VO2Maxima]

I used to run a lot. 18:30 5K (indoor track meet at the Patriot League Championship a long time ago lol), 1:25:11 half-marathon (road race in Denver), and something around 3 for the marathon but I forget which race that was so I can't easily Google it and find out a time. Never experienced a "runner's high" or whatever people call it though, always just ran because I felt obligated to. Obligated for what reason, I couldn't tell you. When I quit though, I completely quit. I have a few friends and teammates who still do a bit of running as cardio, but there was a part of me that with running, if I couldn't be just as good as I was in the past, I didn't want to do it at all. So today I'm probably lucky if I can run an 18:30 mile lmao.

This or pretty much any natural no stir works for me.

[Meatie]

or I'd do hill sprints. Just enjoyed the mental aspects.

I used to whip myself over the back with a leather belt. really tested my pain tolerance and resolve, but most importantly...

what is palm oil free?

thanks for the natural suggestions fellas!

[shoefanatic23]

Picked up the lemon tea OT+G for 15 each. Was not expecting much but the stuff was awesome. Getting close to 30 labels.

CL continues to be the supp overlords

Whoah where at?

[superhuman67]

Get Trader Joe brand unsalted chunky it's just dry roasted peanuts and nothing else.

[OT2000]

Look for two ingredients, peanuts and salt. Between deli made at grocery stores and many commercial brands, it’s easy to find.

[RunningTall]

Such much running nostalgia in the thread. Haven't run in years crew.

/end thread

[suppressedAR]

Where is this deal??

I can't say or I'll get a 30 day ban because I'd be sending members to a competitors site and I really don't want to be banned.

lmao ****in Meatie. Cause sadism comes in all forms.

[dailob]

the fastest i've ever ran a mile was 6:32 and that was on my 7th mile going home, while keeping an average of 8:30 the previous 6 - this was when i was 185lbs and about 2015. haven't tried getting under 6:30 for awhile but some time last year weighting around 195 i hit 6:45 so maybe sometime i'll try again in the near future

i'm still lifting, albeit not putting up big numbers like the rest of you but i'm ok with that since i dont want to dedicate myself to one aspect of fitness

i think i have over developed legs though ... lulz almost every time i'm running, there's always 1 person who says something about my calves

This is one I buy too.

Has anyone tried Rivalus protein, flavor recommendations ?

[Big_Spaz]

I ran once ... it was in 1996 (no lie). And ran a little under a 7 minute mile (my senior year of High School). I was probably about 130 lbs. at the time and short like I am now (5' 5"). So having the short strides killed me.

Got into Powerlifting, Bodybuilding, etc. and never really "ran" since. I have always done cardio so I don't get short of breath very easily, I just don't run persay.

Last year my son (who was a freshman in High School) was breaking all kinds of school records at Track and Field Day (he isn't on the track team since he's a pitcher on the High School Baseball team) and was walking around the house like he was the new pitbull of the Hess yard and quite frankly let's be honest ... that's me.

So I told him I could knock him down a peg and beat him at the 400 meter race. We gave each other two weeks. I went to the track behind the Ephrata Rec center about every other day for the full two weeks and worked on stretching, starting to run again, short sprints, etc. Race day comes and my son is EXTREMELY confident (he didn't practice or anything).

We get to the track and he has a SEG on his face the whole time (Sh*** eating grin) and the dude is just oooooozing confidence. Which made me want to beat him all that much more. Mind over matter at this point. If I think I'll be fast, I will be fast. We line up, my wife says "GO!" and I'm literally busting it with all I had, I mean Usain Bolt type leg action going. I'm smoking this kid ... just blazing and all of a sudden I see him right beside me, then way up in front of me, and then he did the last 5 steps to the finish literally back peddling like he's Deion Sanders playing corner on the 1994 49ers. I got absolutely smoked. Like legit ... smoked.


I vowed at that moment I would never, EVER run again in my life. And I won't.
