What can us older folks do to ensure a good night rest?
What can us older folks do to ensure a good night rest?
What options do us older folks have help us sleep like when we were 20? Quality sleep is no trivial matter for the older person. The older we get the more we seem to struggle to get a good night rest. Lack of sleep will have a magnitude of negative effects on the body. For the older guy it will also mean lower testosterone levels in his blood and that is no good news! That is how the vicious…

📈HOW TO GET MASSIVE!📈
I've been thinking about sharing my experiences over the years—the good, the bad, the wins, and the failures. Here are the key points anyone looking to get huge should keep in mind to achieve the best and biggest version of themselves.
Remember, none of you will ever look exactly like me. I have unique genetics, different bone structure, muscle insertions, muscle bellies, recovery capabilities, and stimulus response. Similarly, I won't ever look like you, Ronnie Coleman, or any other inspirational physique.
Bodybuilding is actually very easy
The hard part is how do you make it fit into you’re everyday life with all the commitments that one has
Plus the extra twist of having a muscle growth fetish and how that can be beneficial and detrimental to actually getting bigger 
But the golds points I will likely try and cover in some posts as time goes on are
✳️ How to Eat BIG but appropriately 
✳️ How to TRAIN HARD and actually HARD
✳️ Relax..good sleep low stress makes a body grow BIGGGG 
✳️ Supplements a sea of choice 
✳️ PEDs not as special as you think but they 💯 do work 👊🏾

Lab trials - part 3
Dr. Eric Mitchell, the renowned scientist, had successfully launched weight gain bars initially designed for underweight individuals. The bars were later found to be effective for muscle growth as well. In the lab trials, the bars were tested on inmates and soldiers, both of whom experienced no negative side effects, except for a noticeable increase in libido.
Curious to explore the commercial potential of his invention, Dr. Mitchell approached a prominent fitness equipment and supplement company. Jonathan, a sales representative who possessed an impressive physique and had a background in sports and fitness, was chosen to market the bars. As the account manager for major bodybuilding gyms, Jonathan ensured they had the best equipment and latest supplements.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After sharing the details about the new supplement, the gyms were instantly intrigued, viewing it as a safe and preferable alternative to steroids. One particular personal trainer even informed Jonathan about his significant muscle gain after consuming just three bars a day. Clients who tried the bars were also enthusiastic about the results.
Although Jonathan wasn't originally focused on becoming a bodybuilder, he was interested in developing a more muscular physique. Therefore, he decided to consume one bar a day. Notably, he experienced increased strength and received compliments on his growing size and lifting abilities. However, he failed to notice the gradual appearance of a protruding belly and love handles.
Tumblr media
The gyms Jonathan had sold the bars to were highly satisfied with the product and began placing more orders. They also bought heavier equipment as their clients demonstrated increased strength. His success led to a promotion, with more responsibilities and more gym clients to handle. As a result, Jonathan neglected his running sessions, which not only hindered his endurance but also became more challenging due to his heavier weight.
Tumblr media
Months later, one of the gyms arranged a strongman competition and invited Jonathan to participate. Feeling inferior to the other competitors, he decided to increase his intake to five bars per day, solely for the duration leading up to the competition. His strength and physique skyrocketed, attracting compliments from the hefty individuals at the gym.
Additionally, Jonathan noticed his intensified sexual desire, so much so that he had to indulge in self-pleasure multiple times a day. During the competition, he struggled with his bulging muscles, as his shirts became tighter and simple tasks like tying his shoes became bothersome. Now, he solely wore stretch pants.
Tumblr media
Observing the immense strength of his fellow competitors, Jonathan grew frustrated. Placing tenth in the competition only added to his disappointment. However, he happened to strike up a conversation with one of the participants other who mentioned the bars, expressing their increased muscle mass and heightened libido – a sentiment Jonathan could relate to. They became workout buddies, with Jonathan's new goal to surpass his companion, Michael, and emerge victorious in the next competition.
Jonathan and Michael began to spend more time together, even outside of gym sessions. Their meals grew in size, topped off with two bars each as a dessert. One intoxicated evening, they engaged in mutual masturbation, considering it nothing more than an expression of camaraderie. This activity soon became a regular occurrence.
As they continued their intense workout routine, Jonathan and Michael saw their bodies grow stronger, more massive, and, inevitably, fatter. Although they embraced these changes, they faced confusion about their evolving relationship – were they gay, or was the connection purely based on their shared horniness? Eventually, they concluded that their behavior was normal for close friends who understood each other.
Finding it more convenient to sleep with Michael, as he comprehended Jonathan's busy lifestyle due to his successful job, dating women became a challenge. Their minds were occupied with thoughts of gym sessions, growth, and sexually satisfying each other. Despite the difficulties, Jonathan's business expansion flourished, and he achieved remarkable success.
Tumblr media
Their routine continued, and as they added more bars to their diet leading up to the next strongman competition, they became absolute behemoths at the gym. Nonetheless, their heightened horniness posed a significant challenge. They now engaged in masturbation three or four times a day. Their bond with each other remained a deeply important aspect of their lives, for living this lifestyle was arduous without someone who shared similar experiences. But they didn't let anything or anyone deter them – Jonathan emerged as the champion in the competition, while Michael secured second place.
Tumblr media
Having accomplished all their goals, Jonathan and Michael pondered their next target, contemplating the future of their physical transformations.

I'm your average joe who works an average desk job and at 45 I have nothing great going for me. Sometimes I just wish I could do it over again. Maybe take up a diffrent major in college, something that would set me up for a more adventurous life. Can you help me achieve this?
Okay, who wants to be average? And who wouldn't want to know what their life would have been like if they had made a different decision at some point? I mean, your decisions weren't actually bad. Bank apprenticeship, business studies, going to the gym twice a week… You have a house in the suburbs, a cool car. It could have been worse! But also better. We can manage that! Monday, 12:00 noon, let's get started!
When you finish work in the evening, you're still full of energy. Even though you worked until 19:00 today. It's paying off that you started making the gym your home seven months ago. When you arrive at the gym at 8 p.m., Steve greets you at reception with a fist bump. Everyone here greets you. Some of them are good friends of yours. The rest at least know you by sight. No wonder, you're here every day. In the morning before work. In the evening after work. And the effort pays off. From a very well-built man with the typical rolls of flab, you have developed into an athlete. A machine. Not one of the big boys. But close. You call it a day at 22:00. You need seven hours' sleep, you want to be back here at 07:00. One last critical look in the mirror. Not bad for a man in his mid-40s…
Get up, gym, office… You work like clockwork. You're good at your job. The development of your body has boosted your career. Today you have another lunch date with a division manager. He asks you if it's time to take the next step in your career. It's been two years since you moved to the "Digital Research and Development" division. That was also the initial spark for your physical transformation. As an accounting employee, you had previously become a lazy and saturated couch potato… You smile and, as if by chance, flex your huge biceps. You know that makes him hot. And the prospect of a blowjob after lunch is tempting. Of course, he immediately notices that your cock is getting hard… You have his hand in your crotch for the rest of lunch.
When you arrive at the gym at 7pm on Wednesday, you first have to go through your post. As the largest shareholder, you are only the chairman of the supervisory board. But many people confuse that with managing director. Idiots who are just stealing your precious time on the weights. Since you introduced the "Meathead Gym" brand and turned your old gym into the flagship of the new brand, you feel even more at home here. No classes, no machines, no women. Just honest, hard bodybuilding. Dress code is at least off-the-shoulder. In fact, shirtless is preferred. It goes without saying that you don't wear a tank top either.
You're the first one in the gym on Friday morning. Good thing you have the keys. You look around. Your empire. It was a big step to leave your good job almost eight years ago and start working at the fitness start-up. For hardcore bodybuilders, you are now the market leader as a fitness studio, but also in nutritional supplements and gym clothing. Steve arrives at 05:30. He has the early shift at reception. You greet him with a fist bump. Good man. A little weak in the chest. At least compared to you… But he'll get there!
Tumblr media
You visit a school friend at the weekend. His son is a handsome stud. He could turn into a real gym hunk. He asks if he can take a selfie with you. Sure, I'd love to, you say. He asks you if you can give him any tips on what he should do now. He's finishing high school now. You ask him what position he plays football. He grins and says that he prefers to spend his time in the gym. You can see that. You tell your school friend to listen away for a moment. And then you tell your son that he shouldn't bother with college and university. You're glad you didn't do that either. You started pumping iron straight away. And then brought your dream to life. Live your dream, you tell him. And that you'd be happy if it could start at your company.

A story for @octuscle Merry Christmas. I'm sorry it's a bit rushed, and kinda slapdash, but you know what happened. I hope you like it!
Going Back to College
Jerry was forty years old.  He was celebrating his birthday alone, again.  Somehow, after graduating college, Jerry set out to change the world, but all that really changed was Jerry waist, which continued to grow wider and wider.  Jerry hated his life.  He was a doctor, but with the cost of insurance, and having his own office, Jerry couldn’t get anywhere in life.   And no matter how hard he tried, Jerry felt like he was just treading water.  Jerry picked up the paper and glanced at it, and then read the headline story again and again. He threw down the newspaper in disgust.  On the front page was a well-muscled man, doing a double biceps pose, in front of his tenth gym franchise.   The man, Rick Jenkins, was a huge success, becoming a millionaire at thirty, and now at forty had his gym franchise, a supplement empire and his own fashion brand.  He was also now a billionaire.  Jerry was disgusted.  In freshman year of college, Rick had been his roommate.  Rick was your typical dumb as rocks jock, or so Jerry had thought.  They had nothing in common with each other.  But, looking back at his life, he realized that he had been condescending and rude to Rick, while Rick had always tried to get along with Jerry.  In fact, there was this time when Rick had offered to take Jerry to the gym for what Rick had claimed was what he designed to be a non-intimidating workout that anyone could do and get good results.  Why couldn’t I have made an effort back then?  Or have at least been a little nicer to him?  Then, Jerry had an idea.  He grabbed one of the birthday cupcakes he had baked for himself, put a candle on it, and lit it.  He sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to himself, and closed his eyes, to envision the wish he wanted.  Jerry took a deep breath and made his wish, “I wish I had gone on those workouts with Rick, and been nicer to him.”  And then, blew out the candle. 
And then, it happened.   In a rush of glittery blue wormhole, Jerry found himself back in his college dorm.  It was move-in day, and Jerry had already found himself frustrated with his new roommate.  “Sorry for the mess, roomie, but the football team has this hazing ritual and has really been keeping us busy.  I’ll clean it up as soon as I can.” Rick had said.  “I remember I got really snippy with him.  Maybe I can be nicer person,” Jerry thought to himself.  “It’s not a problem, Rick, just clean up when you get to it, ok?”  “For sure.  Thanks for not making a big deal out of it.”  And their relationship had gotten off on a much better foot than it did last time.  Fast forward to October, and Jerry and Rich were pretty unrepeatable.  They went to whatever classes they had in common together, which surprising to Jerry were quite a lot. 
They were both taking biology together, and Rick was even taking Calculus I.  They were both in the freshman English class, and were even in the same Western Civ and Spanish I classes.    The only thing that was different was Jerry was also taking a pre-medicine class and an extra science lab class, while Rich had a bodybuilding class in addition to being on the football team.  They would often get lunch and dinner together.   One day, when Jerry told Rich about how stressful it was to take a full eighteen-hour schedule, Rich offered to take Jerry to the gym for a non-intimidating workout.  Jerry was about to explode at Rich, but remembered that he was being nice to his roommate, and told Rich that he wanted to try the gym but was always too busy or too scared.   Rich explained that he had been developing this non-intimidating work out plans for a few years now, and offered Jerry the chance to workout with him. 
“Jerry, three, two, one, sleep.   You are under my control,  you are excited to workout with me, even though you may think you’re apprehensive, you’re excited.  Any work out plan I give you may seem difficult, but will be totally not intimidating.  Your find yourself wanting more and more to come work out with me.   Now I want you to go deeper and deeper, repeating my words until you go into a deep sleep, repeating my words in your sleep, and wake up when your alarm wakes you.“
So, with apprehension, Jerry found himself going to the gym with Rick.  Rick’s personality put Jerry at total ease.  And Rick’s work out plan was totally not intimidating.  Jerry found it easy to go from exercise to exercise, and whenever Jerry had a problem, he found Rick right there to help with his workout.  By November, Jerry felt his stress had totally disappeared thanks to Rick’s workouts.  And he knew he started seeing results from the gym.  Noting earth-shattering, but his shoulders and lats were becoming more prominent, while his belly was shrinking.  And his arms and legs were becoming more defined and he could even see hints of pecs and biceps popping up a little.   Rick noticed too and would always compliment Jerry on his “gainz”.   Whenever Rick would say “gainz” around Jerry, Jerry would always have this unusual feeling come over him, and his brain would kind of blink out for a second or two.  And he would always wake up to Rick telling him that he was doing such a great job and that he should keep up his workouts, bro!
It was December, and Jerry was at the gym.  He was alone in the locker room, and flexed in a mirror.  He was amazed how much he had changed.  He couldn’t believe it but he had biceps.  Actual biceps, and abs.  He had a full-on rock wall of six solid abs!  “Hey, Jer-bro!  I knew you could do it!  That high-protein, low carb diet really did wonders for you!”  Rick said.  “And check out all those gainz!” 
And again, that weird whirly feeling went through my brain.  This time though, Jerry could hear Rick saying something to him.  “Hey Jer-bro, you like it when I call you that.  I need you to shift your concentration a bit.  I need you to get into sports medicine.  You can to that for be Jer-bro, I mean after I’ve heled you so much get rid of your stress, and helping your gainz in the gym.  You’re just a little hazy on working as a surgeon or an oncologist, but your brain seems totally focused on going into sports medicine and we can be partners.   That’s gonna be so fucking cool.  So, keep up your work outs bro!  You’re doing so fucking awesome!”
Jer woke up a little foggy.  He’d just had an awesome workout, and Rick had come up to him to encourage him a always.   And did he say something after that?  Nah, he’d just be as encouraging as always.  He’d be going home for the holidays.   He wasn’t looking forward to talking about shifting his concentration.  Surgeons and oncologists made lots of money, but he was really interested in sports medicine.  It was becoming his passion. 
It was now sophomore year.  Rick and Jer-bro had decided to stay roommates.  Jer was especially happy to room with Rick.  It seemed Rick help keep his stress levels away.  Why didn’t he want to hang with Rick before?  Rick was his bro!   Rick was such an awesome bro!  He could always look up to Rick.  Jerry was in his second year, and he was still eager to graduate with a degree in sports medicine.   So, his schedule was not as full as last year, but still very full.   He took sophomore English, and Western Civ 2.  He also took Spanish 2, and Calc 2, and for his sports medicine focus he took Anatomy 1 and Sports Med 1.  Surprisingly, Rick was in 4 of his six classes.  The only difference was instead of sports med, Rick was taking a business class and a psychology class.  
The year progressed really well with Jer-bro making awesome gainz in the gym, but grades falling to the B-C level.  And Rick was doing awesome.  He was now the starting quarterback on the school team, and the whole team was very dedicated to playing football and winning a state championship.   The coach even allowed Rick to lead in some kind of motivational meditation before each and every practice and game.   This seemed to make the team even more thirsty to win the school’s first championship ever.  
At the end of sophomore year, the football team won it’s first division championship.  Jer-bro even took time off from his classes to paint his face and cheer on Rick during the championship game.  He had listened to Rick who told him that football was something that he was becoming really passionate about.  And after a while, Jer-bro couldn’t remember a time when he wasn’t passionate about college football.  By the end of the season, Jer-bro could tell you any stats about the college’s last 20 years.  And he was even becoming a Las Vegas Raiders fan, which was Jerry’s team too. 
During Junior year, Jer-bro and Rick were totally unrepeatable.  The only time they were apart was when Jer-bro went to his medically focused classes and Rick when to his Business and Psychology classes.  One night, Jer-bro heard some sounds coming from the headphones  on his ears.  “Rick is right.   Listen to Rick.  Rick gives you gainz.  Rick is your bro.  Listen to Rick.”  Jer-bro realized this was stuff he already knew, so he closed his eyes and went back into a deep sleep. 
During this year, Jer-bro noticed some nerdy guys hanging around Rick, and he grew a little concerned.   So, he asked Rick about it.  “Rick, why are you hanging out with all the nerds?” he asked.  Rick responded, “Remember the unintimidating workouts you started with?  I’m refining them for a general audience and I’m making great progress.”  “Cool,” was Jer-bro’s only reply. 
Later on in the year, Jer-bro once again heard the whispering in his ears.  It was now second nature for him to absorb the information but ignoring it.  He heard Rick telling him, “For your senior project, you will create the perfect protein powder, muscle growth supplement, with one undisclosed side effect, it makes people dumber.  I know you can do this for me, Jer-bro.  For us.  You will do this for your senior project.  You will continue your workout and continue to get awesome gains.  All for Rick.  All because of Rick.”
Senior year,  was awesome.  Jer-bro kept working on his senior project with a singular focus.  He continued to workout at the gym and by the time graduation came around, Jer-bro looked like an amateur bodybuilder.   He would zone out at times, so people thought he was kind of a dumb ass, but underneath all the muscle was a huge intellect, focused on sports medicine.  He had finished the protein powder that Rick told him to make and now, they would begin a business together.  Speaking of Rick, he had gotten investments from some of his former teammates who he had persuaded to go into finance and investment.  His team had continued to do so well this year, the had gone to the Rose Bowl and won!  Rick had even picked up the Heisman trophy.  At graduation, Rick was ready to start his supplement company with Jer-bro  and had all the financial backing he needed. 
Jer is now 25.  He’s more rich than he was when he was 40.  He’s also quite a bit dumber.  After trying some of the muscle growth protein powder, Jer couldn’t help but become addicted to it.  He grew his muscles until he was little more than a musclehead.  Only into working out and having sex.  He still knew how to calculate his micro nutrients and count his reps out.  But that was all his life consisted of these days.  And he was very happy. 
Tumblr media
As for Rick?  He became a millionaire at 24.  By the age of 30, Rick owned his franchise of gyms all over the world, and with his muscle growth protein powder, range of “motivational hypnosis patreons” and fashion brand, he was now a billionaire.  Jerry had been the perfect test subject for his hypnosis during the first month of rooming together, and that had given him all the confidence to try his methods first on his coach, then going on to the rest of his teammates.  And that had made all the difference.

The Big Food industry spent billions teaching you what to think about food. Everything you've been taught about eating is WRONG. Here's 20 tips to educate yourself:
1) The inner aisles of a grocery store are engineered to taste good and keep you coming back for more. They are closer to drugs than REAL food.
2) Eating 5-7x a day is not the way to boost your metabolism but its a great way to create insulin resistance.
3) You don't need more supplements. You need a whole foods diet.
4) There's nothing healthy about fruit drinks. They are liquid sugar IVs. 100% juice is still 100% garbage for your body.
5) Breakfast can be the most important meal of the day but not when your routine is eating 3 bowls of cereal. If you're going to eat breakfast start with hitting 30+ grams of protein to start your day.
6) The food pyramid maximized profits and destroyed people's health.
7) Vegetable oils are closer to industrial waste than they are vegetables. Stick with coconut, avocado, olive, and butter.
8) Terms like natural, heart healthy, and multigrain are marketing terms that have nothing to do with that food improving your health.
9) Heart disease wasn't a serious issue until the past several decades, yet red meat and eggs which have been eaten for thousands of years have become the scapegoat for what processed foods and insulin resistance have done.
10) Calories in, calories out sound great unless your diet is full of empty calories. Nutrient density matters when it comes to hormonal balance, metabolism, and overall health.
11) Low fat is usually just a smoke screen for high sugar, increased triglycerides, insulin resistance, and heart disease.
12) The sun has endless nutritional benefits and comes at zero cost and free of calories.
13) Everything in moderation is illogical. Just because your body can deal with certain foods doesn't mean its good for you.
14) Creatine isn't just for bodybuilders, it's for everyone. It's cheap, safe, and has cognitive benefits in addition to its impact on muscle.
15) You don't need energy drinks. You need a high protein diet and better quality sleep. Something as simple as magnesium before bed can have a huge impact on improving the quality of your sleep.
16) Artificial sweeteners lack sugar but can destroy your gut health.
17) Drinking alcohol because it's good for you in some way is bullshit. It's a toxin. If you want to enjoy it fine but don't use your health to justify it.
18) If it's designed to sit on a shelf for a year it's not food.
19) An exclusively plant based diet lacks essential nutrients. Don't be fooled by products like Beyond Meat which require high levels of processing to create a cheap alternative "food".
20) Cholesterol is the boogeyman you have been told to fear but cholesterol is naturally occurring and dietary intake of cholesterol is not strongly understood or supported by the data to cause heart disease.
P.S. Food companies are enabled by limited regulation to prioritize max profits over consumer health. It's important to be an educated consumer. You are responsible for your own health. Think critically and stick to the basics. If it wasn't eaten 100 years ago it's not worth eating!!

You seem to know much about body training!
Could you recommend any chest excercizes?
I love my body and I only wish my moobs were bigger :3
cracks knuckles.
alright, so here's a funny little chart i made on twitter a few months ago. i stand by basically all of this still. i know you're asking about just your "moobs", but i cannot answer this to my satisfaction without opening the can of worms.
Tumblr media
you can target just your chest, but it's important to remember that your body is a complex systems of muscles supporting each other to perform any given task.
for working on the chest, we can take the barbell bench press as our example to demonstrate.
here's a rough map of the muscles being worked by that exercise.
Tumblr media
even if it's the pectorals and deltoids doing the majority of the work, it can't actually do that work if it's not stabilized by the core, or if you're body isn't firmly grounded through your legs.
long term, regardless of whether your goal is strength, bulk, or definition... you kinda need to work on everything.
so all of that groundwork out of the way, assuming you're starting from scratch, here's what i would recommend based on personal experience and recommendations my friends have found helpful:
cable resistance bands! full kits will run anywhere from $20-30.
body weight exercise! even better with a pull-up bar.
your goal should be gradually increase the load being put on your muscles by increasing the cable band tension or going through the stages of push-up modification.
your goal is getting to ~8-12 repetitions of a exercise until failure. failure is what it sounds like. it is your muscles telling you that they are done. it is really important to listen to them when they tell you that they are done. pain is not in fact gain. pain is pain. pain is potential injury.
if something feels wrong, stop what you're doing. when you're starting this stuff out at home, you need to be really careful. i cannot, from my ivory tower of the internet, obsessively monitor your form. i can just tell you to watch, read, and listen carefully to whatever instructions you're following.
what really helped me when i was figuring out my relationship to this stuff is just bending to the whims of capitalism and picking up a tracker app. i personally use fitbod and haven't had any complaints, but a full $10/mo subscription for this kind of thing isn't for everyone.
the apps are mostly helpful because once you tell them what equipment (if any) you have access to, they'll only generate routines you can actually do. that way, you can gradually just learn what you like doing and what your options are for any given muscle group. one could, hypothetically, subscribe for a month while writing down all of the exercise options it recommends before immediately unsubscribing! i don't know!
so that leaves us the other two thirds of the venn diagram.
sleep is sleep, but diet is... really where stuff gets wonky and hard to advise on from a distance.
as stated above, i personally decided to not track any of my macros or attempt serious bulking & cutting. food is too important to me personally, socially, and culturally! so i focus on consistency instead.
so if your goal is close to where mine is—firmer, more muscular pectoral muscles that fill out my silhouette nicely, that you can feel flex and move and tense, but aren't the cavernous cleavage of a dedicated bodybuilder—it's mostly just going to be supplementing your protein and creatine intake.
i leave you with this very funny video from adam ragusea i show to people when i try to explain what looking up anything gym related on the internet is like.
for the average person, 99% of this process is just... doing the work. it's the literal work, putting decent quality fuel back in the tank, and giving your body the rest it needs afterwards.
i'll be transparent and say this year has been actually horrible for me at the gym. between changing medication and personal life circumstances, i just physically and mentally couldn't hit most of my goals this year.
but that's fine! because every time i get back from the gym i feel so much better than when i left.
if you keep that feeling of strength and very literal empowerment centered in your mind, it will precipitate outward naturally.
especially if you get to wear something cute while doing it.

best instant charge pre workout
Instant Charge Pre-Workout by iMuscles is a high-performance supplement designed to maximize energy, focus, and endurance, allowing athletes and fitness enthusiasts to push their limits in the gym. Tailored for both beginners and advanced users, this product combines a blend of powerful ingredients to elevate your workout intensity, help delay fatigue, and support muscle pumps and recovery.
Key Benefits:
Enhanced Energy and Focus: Formulated with a precise dosage of stimulants like caffeine, Instant Charge ensures you experience a quick surge of energy that lasts throughout your entire workout session. It helps to increase mental alertness, focus, and drive, keeping distractions at bay.
Improved Endurance and Performance: Ingredients such as beta-alanine are included to buffer lactic acid build-up, reducing muscle fatigue and allowing you to sustain peak performance for longer durations. This means you can power through more sets and achieve a higher volume of training.
Increased Blood Flow and Muscle Pump: The pre-workout also promotes nitric oxide production with ingredients like L-Citrulline, which widens blood vessels and improves blood flow to working muscles. This results in a more powerful muscle pump, delivering better nutrient delivery and waste removal.
Quick Absorption and Sustained Effect: Instant Charge is designed for rapid absorption, ensuring that the active ingredients are available when you need them the most. You can expect to feel its effects kicking in within minutes of consumption.
Amino Acid Support: The inclusion of amino acids such as L-Leucine and L-Taurine provides a support system for muscle protein synthesis, reducing muscle breakdown during intense training.
No Crash Formula: Unlike many other pre-workouts, Instant Charge aims to minimize the dreaded "crash" that comes from stimulant-heavy supplements. This allows you to finish your session strong and maintain your energy levels throughout the day.
Primary Ingredients and Their Roles:
Caffeine Anhydrous: A well-known stimulant that boosts energy, enhances concentration, and improves reaction times.
Beta-Alanine: Reduces muscle fatigue by buffering acid in muscles, allowing for prolonged high-intensity exercise.
L-Citrulline: Boosts nitric oxide levels, promoting better circulation and delivering that "muscle pump" effect.
Creatine Monohydrate: Helps to regenerate ATP stores, leading to increased strength and power output.
L-Arginine: Works synergistically with L-Citrulline to enhance nitric oxide production.
BCAAs (Branched Chain Amino Acids): Support muscle recovery and protein synthesis, reducing the risk of muscle damage.
Taurine: An amino acid that supports hydration and may improve athletic performance.
Recommended Usage:
Mix one scoop (approximately 10-15 grams) of Instant Charge Pre-Workout with 200-300ml of cold water and consume 20-30 minutes before training. Avoid consuming late in the evening to prevent sleep disruption, as it contains stimulants.
Flavor and Taste Profile:
Instant Charge Pre-Workout is available in multiple flavors, ranging from classic Fruit Punch and Lemonade to more exotic options like Blue Raspberry and Mango Blast. The flavoring system is designed to mask the bitterness of certain active ingredients, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable drinking experience.
Who Should Use It?
Instant Charge is ideal for weightlifters, bodybuilders, athletes, and anyone looking for a pre-workout boost. It’s suitable for those seeking an extra edge in endurance-based or high-intensity training sessions. However, due to its stimulant content, it is not recommended for those sensitive to caffeine or beginners unaccustomed to pre-workout products.
Safety and Warnings:
Consult a healthcare professional before use, especially if you have any pre-existing medical conditions or are taking medication.
Do not exceed the recommended dosage.
Avoid combining with other sources of caffeine or stimulants.
Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Testosterone Therapy: Everything You Should Know!
Testosterone therapy has gained significant attention over the years as an effective solution for men experiencing symptoms of low testosterone. This treatment helps restore vitality, improve mood, and enhance overall health. In this article, we’ll explore what testosterone therapy is, how it works, and its benefits, while also providing guidance on choosing the right clinic for your needs.
What is Testosterone Therapy?
Testosterone therapy is a medical treatment designed to increase testosterone levels in men who have low testosterone, also known as hypogonadism. Testosterone is a critical hormone responsible for various functions, including muscle mass development, bone density, libido, and mood regulation. When testosterone levels drop below normal, men can experience a wide range of symptoms that affect their quality of life.
Why Do Men Need Testosterone Therapy?
As men age, their testosterone levels naturally decrease. While this is a normal part of aging, some men experience significant drops in testosterone, leading to a condition known as low testosterone or "Low T." This can result in fatigue, decreased sex drive, mood swings, and even depression. Testosterone therapy helps to address these symptoms by supplementing or replacing the body’s natural testosterone levels.
How Does Testosterone Therapy Work?
Testosterone therapy involves administering synthetic testosterone to the body to help maintain optimal hormone levels. It can be delivered in various forms, such as:
Injections: Testosterone injections are administered directly into the muscles, where the hormone is absorbed into the bloodstream over time.
Topical Gels: These are applied to the skin, allowing testosterone to be absorbed transdermally.
Patches: Similar to gels, patches release testosterone into the bloodstream through the skin.
Pellets: Implanted under the skin, these pellets release testosterone over several months.
Each method of testosterone therapy offers different advantages, and a healthcare provider will help determine the most appropriate form based on individual needs and preferences.
What to Expect from Testosterone Therapy
When undergoing testosterone therapy, most men report improvements in several areas:
Increased Energy Levels: Testosterone therapy can help alleviate fatigue and restore energy, allowing men to feel more active throughout the day.
Enhanced Libido and Sexual Performance: Low testosterone can decrease sex drive and affect sexual performance. Testosterone therapy often helps reignite libido and improve overall sexual health.
Mood Stabilization: Hormonal imbalances can lead to irritability, anxiety, and depression. By restoring testosterone levels, therapy often results in a more stable and positive mood.
Improved Muscle Mass and Strength: Testosterone is essential for building muscle. Men on testosterone therapy often notice an increase in muscle mass and strength.
Better Bone Health: Low testosterone can lead to weaker bones and osteoporosis. Therapy can improve bone density, reducing the risk of fractures.
Benefits and Risks of Testosterone Therapy
While testosterone therapy offers numerous benefits, it’s important to be aware of the potential risks involved. These may include:
Acne or oily skin
Sleep apnea
Increased risk of cardiovascular issues
Blood clots
Before starting therapy, it’s crucial to have a thorough consultation with a healthcare provider to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate.
Who Should Consider Testosterone Therapy?
Testosterone therapy is most beneficial for men who have been diagnosed with low testosterone through a blood test and are experiencing symptoms that affect their well-being. It’s not recommended for men with normal testosterone levels or for those seeking therapy solely for bodybuilding or anti-aging purposes.
Choosing the Right Testosterone Therapy Clinic
Selecting the right clinic is a vital step in ensuring a safe and effective testosterone therapy experience. A trusted clinic should provide a personalized treatment plan, thorough monitoring, and access to experienced healthcare professionals.
Why Choose Low T Clinic for Testosterone Therapy?
If you’re considering testosterone therapy, Low T Clinic is a top choice for professional, personalized care. With years of expertise in diagnosing and treating low testosterone, Low T Clinic offers a comprehensive approach to testosterone therapy tailored to your specific needs.

The benefits of injectable l-carnitine
The body produces the amino acid L-carnitine, which is also present in diet and supplements.
It is necessary for energy synthesis because it transports fatty acids to your cells’ mitochondria, which act as internal engines and burn fat to create energy your body can use.
According to some research, it might have certain health advantages, such as enhanced brain function, increased weight loss, and more. Continue reading to learn about the Injectable l-carnitine benefits:
contributes to the production of energy
The components of cells called mitochondria are responsible for respiration and produce the body’s main energy source. In addition to helping remove cellular waste, naturally occurring carnitine is essential for this process and helps the body function more effectively.
What happens to energy levels after you receive an L-carnitine injection? Generally, the body produces enough carnitine spontaneously to support these processes.
According to studies, L-carnitine can assist cancer patients in feeling refreshed and managing their mood, sleep quality, and weariness throughout chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Additional studies on L-carnitine and energy levels have mostly involved athletes, with promising results for improved anaerobic performance and post-training recovery. Short, high-intensity exercises are often considered anaerobic as they force your cells to use sugar instead of oxygen for energy production.
Potential Uses in Therapy:
L-carnitine injections are being investigated for potential medical use. They may be used to treat cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Through increased mitochondrial activity, L-carnitine boosts the amount of energy cells produce.
It also helps to maintain heart health by managing symptoms related to energy deficiencies. As it enhances general metabolic performance in individuals with metabolic issues, L-carnitine can help with conditions like diabetes and other energy-related disorders.
Impact of Antioxidants
Its antioxidant properties are among L-carnitine’s lesser-known advantages. It lessens oxidative stress by helping the body neutralize free radicals. To preserve cell health, this protective role is crucial. In addition to slowing the aging process, reduced oxidative stress can minimize the risk of chronic diseases.
L-carnitine makes the body more capable of withstanding the damage from pollutants and external conditions by promoting the general health of the cells.
Enhances Heart Health
Regarding injectable l-carnitine benefits, heart health is among the finest points to note. It makes the heart function more effectively by maximizing mitochondrial energy synthesis.
It might help control current cardiovascular issues or lower the chance of developing heart disease. Further improving heart health is L-carnitine’s capacity to assist fat metabolism, which also helps to decrease dangerous fat deposits.
It helps with weight loss.
L-carnitine is frequently promoted as a weight loss aid by supplement manufacturers and medical spas. It may aid people in achieving their overall weight loss objectives due to its capacity to boost the development of lean muscle and energy production.
Researchers have discovered that supplements containing L-carnitine can help lower body weight, fat mass, and BMI somewhat, though not significantly. For those who are fat or overweight, this is especially true.
You can witness improvement in exercise:
Injections of L-carnitine are a common way to enhance exercise and sports performance. There isn’t much trustworthy evidence to support people’s numerous benefits.
On the other hand, lean muscle mass may be increased by L-carnitine, according to certain research. For athletes and bodybuilders looking to put on muscle, this is essential.
L-carnitine may promote muscle growth and assist in shielding muscles from injury during strenuous exercise. This enables a quicker recuperation period, which makes sticking to a regular exercise schedule simpler. Many fitness enthusiasts use L-carnitine injections as they provide better recuperation along with muscle restoration.
More research is necessary despite these prospective benefits to fully determine the extent of L-carnitine’s efficiency in enhancing exercise performance.
Treatment for Carnitine Deficiency
Treating primary and secondary carnitine deficiencies is done with injectable L-carnitine. These medical conditions develop when low carnitine levels prevent the body from effectively converting fat into energy.
Injections of L-carnitine offer an additional source to assist in addressing these inadequacies. Heart, liver, and muscular weakness are among the symptoms that this treatment can avoid.
The body can more efficiently digest fat when carnitine levels are raised, which enhances total energy production and lowers the likelihood of problems from carnitine shortage.
Final words:
The above points let you understand the benefits of injectable l-carnitine. Even though it offers some positive results for athletes and regular gym freaks, people with chronic diseases and other diseases should consult with a doctor before consuming it.

BODY BUILDING TIPS FOR CHEST Building a well-developed chest requires a combination of targeted exercises, proper form, progressive overload, and adequate recovery. Here are some bodybuilding tips specifically for chest development:
1.Focus on Compound Movements: Incorporate compound exercises like bench presses (flat, incline, and decline), dumbbell presses, and weighted dips into your routine. These exercises recruit multiple muscle groups, including the chest, shoulders, and triceps, promoting overall strength and muscle growth.
2.Isolation Exercises: Supplement compound movements with isolation exercises such as chest flies (using dumbbells or cables) and chest pullovers. These exercises help to target and exhaust the chest muscles, enhancing muscle definition and symmetry.
3.Mind-Muscle Connection: Focus on contracting and squeezing the chest muscles throughout each repetition. This technique, known as the mind-muscle connection, enhances muscle activation and improves overall muscle recruitment during exercises.
Tumblr media
4.Progressive Overload: Continuously challenge your muscles by gradually increasing the weight, reps, or intensity of your workouts. This progressive overload principle stimulates muscle growth and adaptation over time.
5.Proper Form and Range of Motion: Maintain proper form during exercises to maximize effectiveness and minimize the risk of injury. Ensure a full range of motion to fully engage the chest muscles throughout the exercise.
6.Rest and Recovery: Allow adequate time for rest and recovery between workouts. Muscles grow and repair during rest periods, so ensure you're getting enough sleep and nutrition to support muscle recovery and growth.
By incorporating these tips into your training regimen, you can effectively build a stronger, more defined chest over time. Adjust your program based on your fitness level and goals, and consider consulting with a fitness professional for personalized guidance.

Hey Chronivac, could you help me out? My bf is Dutch and we’re in Rotterdam to meet his family. But his dad and brothers are all big bodybuilders and I’m a tiny nerd. Is there a way you could help me blend in and impress them?
Dan zal ik zien wat ik voor je kan doen... Is your friend also a colossus like his father and brothers? If not, you may soon be crushing him….
Your "brothers-in-law" have fun almost crushing your hands when greeting you. And your "father-in-law" greets you with a hug that leaves you breathless. Your friend laughs and tells them to leave you in one piece. You smile and ask where you can put your suitcase. Your friend says that you sleep on the second floor and a brother-in-law asks if he should carry your suitcase up. No, it's okay, you can do it. With the last of your strength you reach the room. You are drenched in sweat. And you ask your friend to excuse you downstairs for a moment. You would like to lie down for a moment. Zeker, geen probleem!
You open your suitcase. What kind of necklace is that? It must be a surprise gift from your boyfriend. It looks damn expensive. And it looks a bit silly around your neck. But somehow it feels good. You grab a t-shirt and a pair of boxer shorts from your suitcase, change, and lie down on the bed. And immediately fall asleep.
No idea how long you have slept. But you wake up to a crash. And you have a strange pain in your right upper arm. Because you haven't blown up your sleeve yet. You yawn and stretch. You tense both biceps again. And your right sleeve is also hanging in tatters. You have to make a real effort to take off what's left of the T-shirt. And you'd better take off your boxer shorts, too. They won't last much longer either. A glance at your watch shows you that you've just dozed off for fifteen minutes. And that you should slowly do a training session again. The long flight and the drive from Amsterdam have thrown you out of your training routine. Your suitcase is a bit smelly. The sweaty clothes from the training during the stopover in London are not dry yet. But maybe your boyfriend and/or his brothers are up for lifting some weights with you now. So you put on your sweatshorts, tank top, hoodie and your training shoes and run down the stairs. The family is sitting in the kitchen. And your father-in-law seems to read your mind? Do you want to beat jet lag with a good workout? You nod. Jongens, wie komt er? asks your friend's father. And his three sons jump up.
With five people in the jeep, it's pretty cramped. Even though you're the smallest in the group, you all take up a lot of space in each other's shoulders. When the car parks in front of the gym in Sint-Andriesstraat, you breathe a sigh of relief. Because you can get out of the cramped car. And because you can literally smell the iron. The gym is just the way you like it, reduced to the essentials. And a good selection of nutritional supplements. Since the last real meal was way too long ago, you first get yourself a decent protein shake. And then jump rope for ten minutes to warm up. The wimps go on the cross trainer. Only your friend and his father follow your example. Fuck, your friend is really hot, but the thought of a threesome with his father makes you really horny.
It's really cool to learn from experienced bodybuilders. Your father-in-law gives you and your friend a lot of good tips. A lot of it would have helped you in the gym at the university in the States for sure. Shit, you guys could have been a lot bigger. Your friend and you pose in front of the mirror. You are really satisfied. But it goes even bigger. After two hours, the others have no more desire. But you would no longer fit together in a car anyway. "Ga je gang, ik heb nog een uur nodig en dan kom ik met de metro." you call out to them. You need another hour here.
After the workout you need a shake. And you talk a bit with a trainer. He thinks you have a good chance of turning pro. Maybe with an injection cycle. He has some good stuff. Your father-in-law takes it too. Okay, you already thought that. You don't get that big just with good nutrition and hard training. You answer in almost accent-free Dutch that you are thinking about it.
Tumblr media
After the workout, just a quick check in the mirror before you put your sweaty tank top back on. Very clever not to take anything with you to change… But you like the picture in the mirror. The chain comes really nicely. Could have been a bit longer. If you develop as planned, it will be too tight on your neck… But now you have to let the air out of your intestines. The protein falls are one of the best parts of the workout.
But now off to the Maashaven stop and then home by train. Maybe you jog the last meters through the Zuiderpark. The sweatier you come home, the better.

Power Through Science: Unlocking the Secrets of Muscle Growth and Recovery
Weightlifting is more than just a test of strength—it’s a profound science that intertwines physiology, biology, and physics. Whether you're a gym novice or a seasoned bodybuilder, understanding the underlying principles of muscle growth and recovery can elevate your fitness regime. This article explores the sophisticated processes that your body undergoes during and after a weightlifting session, offering insights into how you can optimize your workouts for maximum efficiency and results.
The Science of Muscle Growth
Understanding Hypertrophy
Muscle growth, or hypertrophy, occurs when muscle fibers endure damage or stress, leading to a repair process that increases their size and number. When you lift weights, you create microscopic tears in your muscle fibers. In response, your body initiates a healing process that not only repairs but also fortifies these fibers, making them larger and stronger than before.
The key to triggering muscle hypertrophy is progressive overload, which involves gradually increasing the weight, frequency, or intensity of your workouts. This continuous challenge encourages your muscles to adapt and grow in response to the increased demands.
The Role of Hormones in Muscle Building
Hormones, particularly testosterone and growth hormone, play a crucial role in muscle growth. Testosterone promotes protein synthesis and muscle repair, while growth hormone, released during sleep, aids in tissue growth and regeneration. Optimizing your workouts to increase the natural production of these hormones can significantly enhance muscle growth. Techniques such as high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and heavy compound lifts like squats and deadlifts are particularly effective in boosting hormonal response.
Muscle Recovery: The Unsung Hero of Strength Training
The Importance of Rest
Muscle recovery is just as important as the workout itself. During recovery, the body rebuilds damaged muscle fibers through a cellular process where fibroblasts repair the tissue. Without adequate rest, the muscle cannot correctly repair and grow, leading to stagnation or even injury.
Nutrition’s Role in Recovery
Nutrition is a cornerstone of effective recovery. Protein, the building block of muscle, is particularly crucial after a workout. Consuming protein-rich foods or supplements ensures the availability of amino acids necessary for muscle repair. Additionally, carbohydrates help replenish glycogen stores depleted during exercise, which is vital for preventing muscle fatigue and aiding recovery.
Timing Your Recovery
Optimal muscle growth requires strategic timing of your recovery phases. The anabolic window, the period shortly after your workout, is believed to be the ideal time to consume protein and carbs to maximize muscle synthesis and recovery. While recent research suggests the window may be more comprehensive than previously thought, it's still recommended to nourish your body within a couple of hours post-exercise to facilitate optimal growth.
Sleep: The Overlooked Recovery Tool
Sleep is another critical element of muscle recovery. During sleep, growth hormone levels peak, and the body enters a state of enhanced repair. Poor sleep can significantly hinder muscle growth and overall fitness progress. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night to ensure your muscles have ample time to recover and grow.
Advanced Techniques for Enhanced Muscle Recovery
Active Recovery
Active recovery, involving light exercise during the recovery days, can help maintain blood flow to the muscles and reduce soreness. Techniques like yoga, swimming, or even a gentle walk can aid in quicker recovery by enhancing circulation and flexibility without overstraining the muscles.
Supplements for Recovery
Certain supplements can also aid in muscle recovery. Creatine, for instance, helps replenish ATP stores, which are essential for energy during workouts. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish oil, have anti-inflammatory properties that can accelerate recovery and reduce muscle soreness.
Understanding the science behind muscle growth and recovery can transform your approach to weightlifting. By integrating knowledge of hypertrophy, hormonal influences, and recovery techniques into your routine, you can not only enhance your performance but also achieve sustainable and significant muscle growth. Remember, consistency in both training and recovery is critical to unlocking your full strength potential. Armed with science, your journey through the world of weightlifting can be both successful and fulfilling.
