When you say you didn't have him running do you mean long distances or sprints as well? What was his base fitness like before training for the fight?

Non at all, all of it was high intensity interval work on a bike. I'll be throwing sprints in at some point in the future but he really needs to focus on other physical components before I have him do sprints too, due to how demanding they are over other interval work.

I was going to combine that and L-agimine

It raises test by an insignificant amount, nowhere near enough to effect hypertrophy. Instead of arginine, buy bonded citruline malate 2:1.

Fancy doing me a bulk diet plan ha. Your right there's too much bollocks in this thread nowadays so I'm mostly sticking to smalls' thread now.

I'd imagine it was filmed, I'll leave it up to him to post it though if he would like to.

If you want some diet help then yeah, feel free to PM me.

I hope you charged him a good price!

My pricing is reasonable, I'm only young and have a shit-tonne to learn so I just like to be compensated for the time that working with somebody consumes rather than make any real money out of things

I will look into it.

Lefty, you really are dim, this whole thread is based on experiences and supplement use and reviews You're on the verge of becoming the new Uncle Roger, too insignificant to even batter daily.

I dropped 8 lbs in 3 days... but I notice I lost some bicep size, one of my short sleeve shirts, I couldn't take it off myself as it got stuck on my arms, today, I pulled it off with a slight struggle, but alone...rather depressing!

Really pushing my squats lately, I'm doing them heavier and twice a week, just wondering if there's any disadvantages to using foam to make it more comfortable as I get pretty sore and bad bar marks. I know it might be looked upon as me being a pussy but that's fine.

Look at your bar positioning first before reaching for the bar pad. A lot of the guys I know who had issues like that just had the bar too high/too low or had their hands in the wrong position.

This.

There's also the issue of technique. The foam moves the position of the bar on your back. For example if you're used to doing low bar squats the pad may put the bar in a high position which will affect the lift. Not a huge difference, just something to be aware of.

Cheers, I have a squat pic on my comp, I'll post it and see what you think. It's likely something's slightly out, I've been looking at my form on most things lately and had to make a few small changes here and there.

Squatting in the dead lift area, the new curling in the squat rack lmao.

People are starting to notice that I actually lift, so irrelevant in life but it is encouraging and these little things help

Think I wanna change my routine up though, getting too predictable, like I'm just going through the motions. What's everyone's favourite routine for hypertrophy?

[cutthroat22]

Ha, that's where the squat rack is, I don't move it there.

[doylexxx]

hard to tell on the pic but the fault is IMO that the bar is usually too high you cant really have it to low lol

It has to rack on you r back and not near the neck if that helps

[Jdsm]

I squat high bar (high on the traps). Depends how you're going to squat really.

I didn't quit because I started uni mate, I was still boxing whilst there, but the hours and workload has just increased a lot this year. I've been doing a lot of out of timetable work too, since my uni has a lot of awesome facilities that other unis either don't have or don't let their students touch.
