Buy it bro it'll probably make you buff and you won't even have to exercise or anything. I doubt there's any negative side effects and it's a good use of your money.

it's useful for resisting muscle loss when ur cutting and undereating. hmb + bcaa is like an ancient combination. back in early to mid 2010's, i saw a lot of folks take clear muscle + xtend bcaa including myself. using the same logic, it's also useful when ur doing overnight fasted lifting or have not ate for past 6-7 hours (some ppl love mental clarity or focus that comes with empty stomach).
>>
>>76747999
a lot of this crap has lead in it
>>
>>76747999
yeah its actually goated for cuts or recovery

recovery with HMB takes way less, but the problem is that most hmb out there is calcium bound so the absorption is utter shit. you think you're getting in 5 grams, but you are actually getting 1g max.

muscletech has the rights to sell the liquid verson (or in pills) which isnt bound to calcium (like the shitty powders everywhere else), so most people will shit on it unaware they used the calcium version.

tldr take it while cutting or to improve recovery

Alright fitbros help me out, another anon had a thread about this but nothing came out of it. Was doing inline dumbbell press and started to feel a sharp sensation in pic related area. It was like little jolts around that area.

Since then I have neck pain when I turn my head 90 degrees to the left or right. To be precise its a little bit to the side of where traps attach to the skull. This got better over the 2 weeks but never disappeared. But more importantly pain as in pic related is on both sides however a bit more dominant on the left. It is close to the spine (the pain) but not at a spine problem. When GF massages anything in this area the same jolt sensation is felt very close. I assume it is a tendon thing but I am unsure if it is a trap thing or something under that. Help me out fitbros, what is the issue?

Retard.
Retards, all of you, retarded subhuman egolifters, OP should do 5x8-12 presses @ 1kg and only increase 1 rep per full exercise and only increase weight by no more than 1kg and only when he can do 6x12 with proper form for a full month straight with no gym days skipped or ANY form breakdown not even for one rep.

Don't be a douche. He does look fairly good. It's just kind of a stupid physique because he's heavily developed like half his back muscles and neglected the other half.
>>
>>76745889
People here got it in their heads that because pullups are harder they're better. But they're just harder because they omit the biceps. There's no actual benefit and in fact they're worse since they use less muscle mass.

last couple months Ive just been screwing around in badly equipped gyms if at all, and, after testing some real lifts I havent done in a while again yesterday, I noticed my strength just fucking plummeted

whats a good routine to quickly refamiliarise yourself with and push up your sbd as well as ohp and rows? think it should be something high-frequency with decent volume, so no ss or anything
>>
>>76748381
>high-frequency with decent volume
Try doing 3xF pull-ups a few times per week and make sure you're hitting at least 15 reps per set

Cope retard, all human actions are selfish inherently and it's neither positive nor negative trait and there's nothing to be depressed or happy about, you seem like a neurotic type that gets anxious unless he can project his own problems into everything else.

I hate how random dude bros take some steroids, train like absolute dog shit, are weak as fuck, don't do any of the main lifts, and light baby weights, and yet still get a fully developed muscular body, all because they took some steroids

It's criminal how this is even a thing, it makes me question everything about life.

And dont be some ignorant annoying faggot and say something like

>erm maybe actually they're doing it right XD!!!!11

I fucking hate this reponse so much, because it is a 100% fact if anyone who is natural trains like that (random lifts, only use baby weights) that they will NEVER make any progress

These guys gains are 100% injected, they get the results IN SPITE of their dog shit training methods which will NEVER work for someone who is actually natural

Even then they will only bench 1 plate for 10 and do some lat Pulldowns and call it a day and claim they train hard and have the secrets and that steroids are just the icing on the cake brah!


I think it’s the fact roiders literally don’t understand how natural gains occur so they have no clue we know the way they train did not result in their gains, that it’s literally all drugs doing the work

To give an analogy it’s like people who buy ranking boosts in online competitive video games and you try queue up into the ratings you got boosted too, and every legit player can immediately tell you’re not a real high rated player and that it’s obvious you got boosted

But the boosted player can brag to random people who don’t understand how the game works, but they can understand what being a highly ranked player is

I fell for the whole "abs are made in the kitchen" meme and the idea that you can develop a strong core by just spamming compound movements. Wasted a year of my time before I realized I was getting nowhere. Started doing abs 2-4x a week and within a few months my main lifts all went up and I looked better than ever. Don't know why I didn't train them directly sooner. Abs are just like any other muscle anyway.
