Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's
Anything you recommend or find useful when you get that painful pump? Getting God aweful pumps lately. Gets to the point where I need to stop before I can even do my next set.

taurine works for the back pumps pretty well but arms and forearms just plain suck. i will alternate back and forth between bi and tri to try to help with it a bit, stretch a little bit to open it up or just take a little more time between sets. i have had my legs get so bad after extensions that 135 nor 185 would bend my legs. i actually had to put 225 on the bar just to get them to break to squat. for me personally back and arm pumps are by far the worse and most irritating and painful though. i can even deal with calf pumps better haha

How do you cook that much fish everyday aNd keep it edible and not dry, I can cook fish but it's so light you cook a shit ton and it's like 2 or 3 meals Max. I think I'm gonna a do a seafood chowder again and figure Macros out... so good.

haha, you have to keep in mind man i am retired and cook and eat pretty much everything fresh. so even though i like it crispy and a little dry, it goes from the oven to the plate for me.
now for the chowder that would be a great setup. idk about for prep but with shrimp fish scallops etc... you could have a really good macro profile going on that isnt dry and nasty. before shrimp sky rocketed i was eating a pound or two of those a day myself. fast easy and tasty, to bad they are way to expensive now to use as a staple in my diet
