    Creatine Ethyl-Ester vs. Monohydrate

    Davie, dkm, Thanks for the post and response, I had this exact same question. I am not a chemist or a pharmicist. I believe I am benefitting from posts on this forum that claim this or that supp. is not beneficial or no more than something else. There are so many claims it is impossible to try...

    Question for Bryan Re: Knee Pain

    Cheen, I am not a doc or PT,but I had a very similar experience. For me it turned out to be partly 40 y/o knees getting used to more volume and loading during squats but much more so squat exercise form. Basically it boiled down to not letting my knees travel forward of your toes when you...

    Medial Delts???

    Would that db upright row be the same thing as bb upright row with a wide grip ? I have been doing cubans/muscle press with light weights for rotator physical therapy. This exercise seems to have the same effect as the db row at the bottom and a press from top of the head at the top. Works the...

    lower back issues

    Nemesis, Just my $ 0.02. For me that would be too much frequency, 3x week max. When I have low back pain I don't do any squats at all. I never do SLDL, I think this exercise is not good for someone who is prone to low back pain. Maybe you could substitute leg press and leg curls. When your...

    Tribulus

    I have seen some marketing bumph about Tribulus being 40% Saponins. Of course I purchased the first thing on the shelf which I now realize is 20 % saponins. Is it necessary to have 40% Saponins ? Are saponins the active ingredient ? Is it necessary to take twice the amount of 20 % for the same...

    getting discouraged

    jwbond, Forgot, I am getting a blood test to check test levels, as I read someone else on this board did, to see if that could be the reason for marginal results. Not sure how old you are or if that is convenient for you, just thought I would mention it.

I haven't exactly grown like crazy using these, but the squats and deadlifts seem to help my appetite and give...

    Volume-How much is too much in a given workout?

    My routine currently has 30 sets, not counting warm-ups, but that includes, abs, reverse situps, forearms and calve press. You count these as part of the 15 ? May I ask why 15 sets or 60 min max. ? Don't see myself getting to the gym twice a day, six days a week is questionable. How to get...
