What's this sugar free jelly stuff???
I crave sweets bad

it's just normal jelly or jam without any sugar in it. smuckers and a few of the other jelly and pb companies make them and they in the same area of the grocery store as the normal ones are. i am weird when it comes to flavors on some things and the sugar free peach and orange tastes like hand soap to me. the grape is also kind of bland as well. all the others are very tasty

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

best way i can explain it would be a controlled negative with a pause at the bottom. then explode just short of lockout, flex as hard as you can for a sec or two and repeat. this is supposed to take the stress off your cns and give your body a break. the pumps are still pretty stupid and i still get a little bit sore but it should only last a day at the most if at all. after the 1-3wk break depending on how well you recover you should come back stronger and feel a hell of a lot better

Cool

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

So say you're doing 4 second negatives with some drop sets and stuff in there. Instead you switch and don't think about the negative just explosive upward motion no major exercises that fatigue or overload the muscle and never to failure? If I understand that right?
Thanks R

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

not so much per say. you drop all intensity techniques off completely, you dont go to failure, the primary focus is on explosiveness and pump. it always your cns to recover completely, your joints to get a break and your body to recharge a little bit. i came off the last one feeling great, stronger and refreshed. so much so i jumped up a little to quickly and aggervated my lower back haha. most will add in a deload period about every 12wks or so. power lifters on the other hand do it all over the place depending on the system they are using

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

the boots look like chuck tailors except they go up higher and have buckles at the top. almost a flat bottom on them but a little bit of a heel. i really like the shoes i wear now but i am pretty sure they are done sir done. they were actually prob done 6 months ago but i dont like changing stuff up haha. sad thing is they are the first good pair of shoes that i could squat and dead in without issues

Get them again

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

i have been squatting in my nike air shoes and i am thinking they are worn out completely. i used to squat in israeli commando boots until i got these shoes. may be going back to the commandos soon. keeping the knee iced even though i dont think it is to bad. i didnt get any swelling so it is a tweak and nothing that a little rest wont fix
