The problem i have with that is the barbell size is not the size as the weights im seeing being sold now a days. Dont want to buy and when i go for new plates, i have to get a new barbell. Also need something to take up to about 350-400 or up to 450lbs in weights for deadlift. Currently theres a bar for 489$ in trincity which is not bad, but i want weights as well and no where has any for a good price.

You should push it to 15 reps. I think the legs need a little more work as they are larger muscles that take more pressure....imo tho

Agreed with that. I normally keep with in the 8-10 reps and push till failure. But the legs, especially calves, does get it 15 reps and up.

I kept all my squat reps under 10 with sets of 3. Muscle protein synthesis returns to baseline after approx 36 hours, frequency is the key, so heavy weights, low reps and squat more than once a week (frequency). It would really burn out his CNS and kill his joints if he squatted for 15+ reps x 3-4 sets for a couple times per week. Recovery would be a b!tch for him, just typing that I feeling the pain in my knees lol

15 devils is a small guy, IMO he should eat every fcuk and squat 2 times a week, max 3 times (unless you deadlifting then squat twice a week) and have a day or 2 where he does absolutely nothing.
When I took that pic of my leg I was on a caloric surplus cycle (300-400 over maintenance). Im dieting down now (getting ready for carnival season) and because a deficit in calories is a deficit in recovery, ive dropped my squatting to two times a week and deadlift once as it recruits leg muscles also.

Since I started dieting approx 3 weeks now, my quads have definitely gotten smaller, that is to be expected as im losing water weight an bloat but its getting more defined (my goal is to lean it out) seeing veins popping out on it when I work out, just took a pic of it in work to give you guys and idea of what im taking about. This pic is with no pump

Interesting Read.

Watermelon Juice Relieves Post-Exercise Muscle Soreness.
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/08/130814124907.htm


Watermelon juice's reputation among athletes is getting scientific support in a new study, which found that juice from the summer favorite fruit can relieve post-exercise muscle soreness. The report in ACS' Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry attributes watermelon's effects to the amino acid L-citrulline.

Encarna Aguayo and colleagues cite past research on watermelon juice's antioxidant properties and its potential to increase muscle protein and enhance athletic performance. But scientists had yet to explore the effectiveness of watermelon juice drinks enriched in L-citrulline. Aguayo's team set out to fill that gap in knowledge.

They tested natural watermelon juice, watermelon juice enriched in L-citrulline and a control drink containing no L-citrulline on volunteers an hour before exercise. Both the natural juice and the enriched juice relieved muscle soreness in the volunteers. L-citrulline in the natural juice (unpasteurized), however, seemed to be more bioavailable -- in a form the body could better use, the study found.

WTF, yesterday me eh even sweat and started getting terrible pectoral muscle pain. probably a carryover from Sunday...steups

[c@ri$$@]

doh buy nun in sports world, dem prices ridic... check kennys

That's for sure, but they had some kinda discount card which i got for free some time ago. I end up getting a rope to do the pulldowns with for less than $300. Original price was $500ish. I dunno if i still get ripped off but i say it's an investment.
