Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

@chuckifubuck Im pretty brand loyal to Pre-Jym. It’s a bigger scoop and takes more water which works for me because it also helps hydrate in the AM. Pre has become like my morning coffee so I don’t trip on cost but it’s rough math 1.66 per serving. If you are taking it later in the day then it might be too much water. Pre-Kaged is similar but for me the flavors don’t quite hit for me.@The ADD @You know damn well @Gully Bull @portcityplaya

It prolly would be. My shyt is like $.89-$1.67 a scoop, depending on the pree and where/when I got it (on sale vs. not, in-store vs Amazon/BB.com, etc).
As for a go-to, it's really gonna depend. For competitions I like OG Mr. Hyde, but I wouldn't take that short of a 1RM attempt day. It's gonna depend on how much energy I have, what I'm doing in the gym, and how much energy I need to complete the WoD. Outside of that, even though it is overpriced, Beyond Raw LIT is prolly my current favorite since they discontinued the OG Dr. Jekyll.
I was partial to Total War but the doctor said it's low-key killing me. I've also had varying success with different C4 strains even though it's pretty weak (Jekyll was weak so I usually added more caffeine to it).
By Strength, of the ones I've taken multiple times and can remember (everything above the line is weak af status):

Only one I'd actively not recommend is BSN N.O.-Xplode, which always made me have to (violently) shyt even if went before going to the gym.
I've also taken PWO pills that pale in comparison to the #Powda®.
Much like coffee, each person's gonna have their own tastes and preferences. I for one roll with a have a light, medium, and heavy configuration and prolly will for the foreseeable future. YMMV.
Hopefully I can be back on the soccer pitch by late May. I got back in Jan but rolled my ankle and been MIA ever since 
The difference between working out when on creatine and when not on is incredible, especially for a newbie like me. Without it, I was gassed out by 45mins but today with creatine, I felt like I could work out all day without getting tired. Did an hour full body workout, followed by an hour cardio on the treadmill. Felt amazing afterwards

I know I fought the losing battle against squats in here many years ago. Leg press + extensions/curls + RDL’s + lunges = fukk a squat (I still do them occasionally tho)
I’m legit scared to fukk with squats nowadays. I know a lot of folks who fukked up their discs and needed multiple surgeries on their backs because of squats.
I’m not competing or have a football contract so fukk them. More power to the folks who go hard with squats tho but I’m good sticking to the leg machines.
Finally got back on the weights after 13 months.. man I'm feeling it...well 8 weeks I'm sure I'll have my aesthetics back....just hope tendinitis doesn't kick in

I’ve been seeing that there should be a period of recovery time between lifting and cardio when doing it on the same day. I wanna say like 6+ hours.

Back to 2-days. Cardio in the morning (jump rope) and then lifting in the evening after work.
Gonna run this for the next 6 weeks till MDW then revise for Jun, Jul and Aug.
