    Tried the final pre-workout powder today - it was good for pump, but I didn't feel much stim. I'm going to pick up some Jacked and give that a go for a couple of weeks. I'm not too bad on workout intensity so the strength/endurance boost is really good. <br />
    <br />
    Rolled out - snuck out of work early so the legs and lower back got a working over. PAIN! but all for a good cause!<br />
    Front squats - have been going pretty easy on these while I work on flexibility (wrist and hip flexor). Today I was feeling good so up went the weight! 640kg, 660kg, 670kg, 660kg, 640kg. Then a cheeky set of back squats at 60kg just to get that burn.<br />
    Moved onto thrusters next. Still on 40kg for these puppies. My wrists were a bit sore so I struggled with the transition. Powering up and getting the bar lifting off my chest was ok, got a little bit ragged near the end of each set though - too much thinking about hand/wrist position I think. Sets of 6, 6, 4, 4.<br />
    Weighted dips next. Had a 20kg and 25kg dumbbell to hang off the chain belt. 6
    20kg, 625kg, 625kg, 6*20kg. Then an unweighted set till failure. Felt light as a feather but then strength just went. Managed 9 and a half reps.<br />
    Super sets of tricep kickbacks (while lying on the ground) and hammer curls. 12.5kg for the triceps and 17.5kg for the hammers. 3 sets of 6 reps.<br />
    I was in and out of the gym within 50min or so - pretty happy with how hard I was working.<br />
    <br />
    Lined up workouts for 4/5 days this week. Including a PT session on Thursday evening, nothing like paying to have your ass kicked!!

    Share your thoughts re that test pump mate. Found it to be very low in stim but works very well with jack3d. 1 scoop of each gives great pumps plus decent stim so good intense workouts

    Ahhh, that sounds like a plan. Will take a wander down the road to the supplement shop tomorrow - I will def give all three a decent go (all in the name of science!!). Will rotate through a period of each but I will try test pump and jack3d together as well. That will be a mean ride I reckon. Jack3d def gave me a mad buzz and test pump was pretty good today. Much appreciated JK!!

    Hah I don't think ya need all 3. If ya want a real goodie then try get a sample of BSN hyper fx. I reckon its great. Musclepharm assault is also very good as well the tried and tested superpump max and 1MR

    whoops! I meant one at a time - kind of testing each out over a period of time to see how they go. Ha ha I agree all three at once would be overkill!

    Nah I understood. I just dont rate test pump that highly. Its ok but better stuff out there.<br />
    <br />
    Also, if you are going to buy rage, pretty much the only place you can get it is at http://www.bodybuilding.co.nz/ as its made by the guys there.<br />
    <br />
    I've tried most of the pre-workouts available and some do bugger all, some give crazzzzy dreams, and others give mean crashes. Takes a bit of trail and error to find what works best for ya.

    Shotgun seems to have pretty good prices - I will see if I can be cheeky and score some samplers tomorrow at that shop. I want to start working on leaning down rather than bulking up further - like you said it's just trial and error till you find something that works. But I can see this really firing me up on those low motivation days (aka winter!!).

    Also try [url="http://www.dailysupps.co.nz"]www.dailysupps.co.nz[/url] They have some awesome deals. Their stock is limited, but what they do have they are one of the cheapest websites out there (due to that they're still relatively new)<br />
    <br />
    What Pre work out do you rate the best JK?

    Dailysupps and also nutritiondeal.co.nz are both good but its parallel imported stuff so sometimes older versions or dated stock. Gotta watch their protein (flogging off old myofusion at the mo....has a bad rep for giving the runs!) but their pre-workout deals are usually pretty good.<br />
    <br />
    <br />
    Chubby - I really rate BSN Hyper FX --> [url="http://xplosivsupplements.co.nz/bsn-hyper-fx.html"]http://xplosivsupple...n-hyper-fx.html[/url] Tried it a while back when I was going through a bit of a flat spot in terms of finding pre-workouts and found it brilliant. Only issue is that you cant shake this stuff as its foams - strictly stir/swirl only otherwise it gets very messy! That websites pretty good too. Cheap and always throws in a few samples for ya to try out. And free shipping too but thats a given now days.<br />
    <br />
    Cellucor C4 is pretty good too but i find it a bit muddy if ya know what I mean. Not really a clean energy/focus.

    I've only tried super pump max which I find works well but I want to try something else and allow the body to cycle the max out of the system for a change. I brought some of that discounted protein today from daily supps so will be interesting to see how it goes. I've had my last couple lots through them coz I'm a tight arse but want myofusion and have found it ok. Time will tell

    Sweet hope ya stomach handles it ok. What flavour did ya go for?<br />
    <br />
    I rate the mayo fusion proteins. Great taste and good profile. Just got some of the new myo elite peanut butter cookie dough flavour. It's mighty fine.

    I got vanilla. I've previously tried chocolate and strawberry both of which are really nice. I did find the original myofusion was thicker and tastier than the probiotic version. I'm quite keen to try that elite version. I take my protein with balance recovery stack which works really well. And due to its berry flavour should go well with the vanilla

    Elite is even thinner than the probiotic. I do prefer thicker protein shakes so often double up the protein or just use less water.

    JK, did you say you had mad dreams on some of these supplements!? I was bloody sleepwalking last night lol!! Could be coincidence but I might give test pump a rest for a while!<br />
    <br />
    Didn't seem to get any similar reaction from Rage or Jack3d... fingers crossed!

    I only used two samples of it but both times woke in hot sweats after crazy dreams. In one I was being chased by these massive rabbits.<br />
    <br />
    Its pretty common too from what I have read on the old google.

    I have a history of sleepwalking so need to dodge anything that encourages that kind of activity ha ha<br />
    <br />
    Last night I woke up when the wife asked why I'd stolen her pillow. I'd taken it and my own pillow and put them by the front door... I think I was getting ready for work and thought the pillows were my training bag!! So not more test pump for me... I didn't have crazy dreams etc on Rage or Jack3d so I'll stick with them for the moment.

    just stopped by my local supplement shop. Got three more types of pre-workout powders and two blue pills of a new type of supplement they are selling... I'm glad he gave me a shopping bag as I had all these little baggys of powder!<br />
    I got N.O Xplode, Rush, and SP Max. <br />
    <br />
    I promise I won't take it all before tonight's workout!
