Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[Jesus]

nothing wrong wit staying hydrated. I carry around a gallon jug. I take creatine which makes your muscles absorb a whole lot more fluid/water so you feel thirsty throughout pretty much the whole time you work out. After ONE set of 5 of heavy deadlifts my mouth is pretty much dried out/parched.

These clowns around here rarely do squats or deadlifts...I've seen one or two other guys do it and I've been here a month various times of the day. After a good sets of deads I'm thirsty as well.
Bicep curls and shrugs to oblivions ain't shyt to carry a jug around.

Did some ATG pause squats w/ 225. I tried 275 on my last set and got it for 3 reps...think I'm back. Finished off with some bulgarian split squats and some jump squats. Almost to that 26'' thigh mark.

For some reason I prefer ATG to parallel...when I'm doing the latter I can never get my mind to remember the midway point and I always fukk up my momentum. ATG is simple and to the point. I just have to make sure my back stays erect and not to curve my lower back. The stretch feels good as well.

I highly recommend the ON brand creatine as well.

Anyone read that article Layne put up the other day? About a 15 minute HIIT session on the bike Is the best way to burn fat and keep muscle? Can someone post it? I'm on my tablet now and it's hard as fukk to find. If not someone quote me and I'll post it tomorrow

seconded, creatine makes you thirsty as fukk. I drink insane amounts of water when I'm lifting.

what kind do you have? xtend really worked well for me

 

[HHR]

I've tried Xtend, but the taste was meh...think I had watermelon

Amino1 from MP though Fruit Punch is so damn good

AminoX from BSN is decent too...different though, as it's "effervescent"
