You will gain some solid mass on GOMAD while lifting heavy...or entirely the wrong kind of weight if you don't lift at all. Regardless, look into it.

Thank you for your input! I realized just a few days ago that I should've been putting regular milk instead of almond milk in my protein shakes this entire time....whoops. You live and learn I guess...

I bought a pack of chicken breasts yesterday and have been eating one (cooked, obviously) every 2-3 hours, along with a glass of milk.

Anyone here remember when years ago Randy Couture showed a video of him training at Sky Zone, which is a giant building full of trampolines? He praised it like no tomorrow. Well we just got one of these places 5 minutes away from where I live, and I started going to their one hour long fitness aerobic classes once a week. Well damn, it works great. I was sweating like crazy and my watch said that I burned over 700 calories at the end. Overall it's a great little workout for just 10 bucks. Very fun and very effective.

A shit ton of running and endurance training went into it, but I felt great on it. Really set the tone for an awesome bulking phase and I could feel it working. I sweated fucking buckets, though. Drink plenty of water.

Any negative effects from it?

Not really. The only thing that could be considered even remotely negative was that I sweated ten times more than usual - but that was evidence that it was working. I would literally be soaking wet, and I'm not exaggerating in the slightest.

I don't think I had any negative effects like the jitters or whatever because I correctly cycled it and allowed my body to acclimate to the pill in doses. The bottle tells you to start taking two pills until you feel well enough to take three, but I thought it was much better to start off with one dose, increasing by one pill a week until you hit that main cycle of weeks 3-6. Then you allow yourself time to wane off of it in weeks 7 and 8.

Holy fuck, I ordered Insanity for my little sister from Beachbody, and I swear I spent 28 minutes on the phone ordering it. The lady on the other side tried to sell me so much shit, and she kept repeating herself so many times, no matter how many times I told her I just wanted to buy dvd's. She kept telling me "well just to let you know in case you are interested". Holy fuck, that entire company is so money hungry. I am giving you a 120 bucks already and you are still trying to sell me a bunch of shit.

you should try Jack3d Stuff was awesome until I heard it puts holes in your heart.

best pre-workout I've ever used (and actually re-ordered) was Plasma Jet by Gaspari.

Only stuff that didn't make me feel all tingly, suddenly excited but tired, and actually worked. I don't use pre-workout supps anymore however.

first of all, my goal is to build muscle and strength. now, i've wasted about 6 months doing isolation movements and i wasn't seeing much of results except maybe in my biceps and chest, but that's it. i did a lot of research about workout types and read a debate between compound movements and isolation. Compound absolutely smoked the competition and after a long time of heavy research for a routine to do. i learned that the 6 basic compound movements are:-
-Squats
-Deadlifts
-Bench Presses
-Pull Ups
-Bent-Over Rows
-Military presses.
so i decided to split those 6 into a 2 day schedule, like A and B and alternate A and B and then A again in a 3 days fashion.
but this is where i got stuck! i couldn't split the movements and didn't know which exercises go together. so, to put it short: how do i split the basic 6 exercises into 2 days, each day 3 exercises?
my second question is: will doing these 6 only, be effective? are 3 exercises a day enough? thank you for replying

Hoooooly shit. Any of you guys ever partake in foam rolling? I was just in the local running store and tested one out and you seriously don't know how tight you are until you roll your back and hamstrings on one of those things. They showed me a few exercises I could do on it, and each one was fucking orgasmic. I loved it so much I bought it. Highly recommended.
