    Glycogen depletion

    dropsets on the 5's

    1)There's not a "way" to do drops, the only thing to care about when doing drops is getting the burn feeling in target muscles.You should experiment a little and find the way it burns more without overtaxing your CNS. 2)If you want 4 weeks of drops AND 2 weeks of negs you could do 2...

    My Cycle

    hypertrophy-wise more is better, my personal advice is to reduce a bit the number of exercises while adding more sets in 5s.Just simplify your routine and stick to the main compounds during 5s doing aroun 4-5 sets of each. As you are quite young you should have no problems but remember to stop...

    flax

    I was talking about oil grams not omega3 grams, so 20g cod liver oil should be around 3,4 g of DHA+EPA.If this is the case to get 6g of O3 one should take more than 30g cod oil. Am I wrong? So where's the dial taking flaxseed oil? Why a lot of bbers use it?

    flax

    I get cod liver oil in a pharmacy bottled in glass but considering his cost i'm pretty sure it's not purifyed or anything so i'm worryed about long term continuative usage (mercury heavy metals vit A D etc).I take in 20g/day bcause if i have understood well it's nearly the minimum to have some...

    flax

    i use 2 small tbs cod liver oil (about 20g) daily but health-wise I would like to cycle them with flaxseed oil.I know ALA conversion is not very efficient but how much flax oil should I take (in g.) to hope I can have the same effects of my current cod liver assumption? I will stop caffeine...

    Where to buy best tasting least expensive protien?

    ghost you are right. Sadly prices in the USA are near 1/3 than ours and even if I have never bought online I'm definately thinking to try. The only problem could be taxes and legal stuff as I have no idea or experience about international orders.

    Front squat tecnique

    The real problem is that my quads and posterior chain are uncomparably stronger than my upper 'pushing' body (i hope what i wrote makes sense).To give you an idea I can deep squat over 110 kg for 5 reps (and I dont push more but i could) while I can only bench press 70kg. for about 4-5 reps...
