I don't believe it's supposed to be allowed through, I think you're just lucky :P

I just finished off my DMAA caps the other day. Can't say I really noticed much of a benefit I can specifically attribute to the DMAA, so yeah who knows. It's just supposed to help you focus (hence why Uni/college students hammer it for their studies), so I suppose if you aren't struggling mentally with something you won't really notice much of a difference. Towards the end of the bottle, I was taking 75mg (3 caps) - supps that used to contain it like 1MR etc only had 25mg/serving, so if there was a specific effect from the stuff I'd like to think I'd be noticing it at 3 times that dosage.

I can absolutely 100% say for certain though that I got significantly more benefit from eating myself stupid the night before and up until 3+ hours prior to training (since I do poorly when I have anything in my stomach). As Birds etc always insist (and nobody disagrees) food and sleep are a much better solution than stims. Unfortunately gorging yourself on tasty shite isn't really much of an option during calorie deficit periods (as I'm on now for the next 4 weeks), so in these situations I definitely understand repeated use - even if only for appetite suppression haha

I find it hard to get enough sleep in the week, but I have the OEP to help the weight loss process - since starting it I have actually noticed a real drop from where I'd been plateauing for a while - I'm all for calling out broscience and bullshit supps, but this stuff really seems to work for me. Don't know if it's just the DMAA or the combination of that and Yohimbe.

Haven't really changed diet (cbf trying to work out macros) apart from only eating broccoli and grilled chicken for lunch during the week and making more of an effort to stay consistent on weekends.

Yohimbe is supposed to be an awesome thermogenic isn't it? It was in Albuterex, part of the reason it was banned so quickly LOL

Yeah it's still in the US versions of most of these fat burners - it makes me feel a tad warmer, but nothing drastic thankfully. Who knows, maybe it's all just an awesome placebo effect! I know of a few other former fatasses who have used OEP to good effect as well.

haven't lifted for 3 days, feel like a fat fark! Also dont know how people do training before work!

Training before work can be hard. If I do a bunch ride before work and spend the rest of the day walking around with fried legs. I kind of wish I had a desk job on those days, and not a job where I'm on my feet all day.

If I just do a ride by myself it isn't as bad though, since I take it easier, and don't have to keep up with the group (the main bunch ride I do finishes with a 30 to 35 minute hit out where my heart rate sits between 95 and 100% the whole time. That starts after about an hour of riding).

I'm assuming some grazing and a bit of blood on the shines is normal when learning DL?

At this point even at this light weight I have to say DL is the most complete exercise I do.

I think I'm starting to like it

No rules, you'll get better and better at it. Just make sure that the supinated arm is nice and square with your other arm, cause it is possible to pull the bicep.

Bar will clear my Neck TTT, just..

What's everyone doing Rows wise here, how far are you bending, for me 45deg seems comfy enough but I see plenty around about how it shoudl be 80-90deg instead.

I guess it depends on what's being targeted?

For me I do the row as it's supposed to be good for your shoulders and back, anything more specific than that I couldn't tell you.

Thoughts on this?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
