I think you should probably lean towards flavours tht you like.
Genuinely all of them taste very good.
I personally use vanilla the most as it’s very versatile when you’re adding fruit or whey

There’s not an easy replacement for this in all honesty
Probably a standing single leg cable variation.
You can also bias some of your leg pressing movements towards your adductors.

Push priority upper today
I’ve been doing a lot of cable “y’s” and IS press (variation) of late, and I cannot quite believe the positive impact they have had on my shoulders.
I won’t hold my breath, but….!!!!
I’ll rest up tomorrow, and then on with a leg session on Tuesday
Just got my last meal in. Big eat, then big sleep

If “not hitting everything hard enough” means an upper split isn’t letting you give enough attention to individual muscle groups, I agree with Kuba.
If it means you’ve not been trying as hard as you might have done, get your head together and have a proper run at upper/lower

Legs again!
Another good session today. Sticking with the higher reps to look after my knees.
Pressing session tomorrow which I’m looking forward to
Few more feeds this evening and then batch cooking tomorrow

How are you getting on with your PPL split at the moment? Are you making progress both with your performance and aesthetic goals?
Thts probably a good thing to scrutinise before considering making a change

I’m genuinely shocked
I know raw aminos are pretty hard to take, but I’ve not experienced an “amino tang” on any of the TBJP products.
Also, if you meant orange juice as in fresh orange juice, if that’s in any kind of quantity, I’d keep it away from training mate

Leg day after two days rest, and it was very hideous, which makes me very happy.
I’m on high reps at the moment, my knees aren’t being much fun with any kind of load through them, so Everything quad is 15-25’s
Im very pleased that this doesn’t create me issues, but ultimately it’s not what gets my juices going , but needs must
What DOES get my juices going though, is my favourite intra combo of MPS Max, Sustain, EAA, and Creatine
-
There are a number of different schools of thought, and clearly Kuba is very vigilant with his approach.
I personally, when I was strong, would choose movements that mimicked/were regressions of the main compound I would be doing. This would be followed by many low rep sets of the movement itself.

Rested again today with work travel
Back at it tomorrow. I’ve just sorted all my food prep and have one meal left before bed.

Hi Jamie,
Are you training 6 days on the bounce?
Tht sounds like an already pretty demanding schedule.
Whilst the additional sets of back could help some further development, there will be a recovery cost. It’s a big muscle group. Factor that in mate

Resting today and travelling with work
I’m not good with London. No offence to anyone tht loves it, but I’m very much not a city boy!!
-
Nope , same answer as last time, get mps max. You don’t pay duties when bought from inside the eu . So you have multiple shops in Sweden and the Netherlands , some in France , Ireland , Switzerland . Your going to get the same answer if you keep posting sub par intra products as people here actually know what a gd one is 🙂
Would EAA+sustain be as good?[/quote]
Hi mateThis is a good option, but inferior to MPSmax + sustain.
