Answering questions are a privilege, not a pain.. :)

You bought a ticket to this train I'm driving, you're going to Gainsville.

The conductor answering your questions gets you there that much faster.. :)

i was also wondering if Xfactor advanced would be a good add to the blue print ?

Tell you what Nick, please PM me the full name and month you bought under at PayPal. Provided everything squares up, I'll have your answer.. :)

Sorry to have to do this, but sadly... periodic spot checks have become necessary. I hope you understand.

Take care!!

sounds good ! and i've always had sleeping problems so i was looking in to zma however from what i've read... you say GABA is supposedly good at 19 do u think it would be beneficial ?
Also for the famine phase you suggest an hour of cardio with after a training session. Does that mean we should be in the gym for approx. 2 hours ?

I also read your post about the EDT/PR zone, and i was confused a bit.
Here's what i seem to understand from it...

for the EDT block you pick 2 exercises with a weight you can perform 10 reps with normally, now you supper set the exercise with this weight until you can just barely reach 1 rep.

A. Insofar as sleep, certainly. Try this though... look into Melatonin/Valerian root first please. Might make more sense from a cost/benefit ratio.

Then again, GammaGH I consider a staple. Of course, I'm a lame 41 years of age... :)

A. Not quite. I don't suggest an hour of cardio. If you're up to it some LISS won't hurt but personally speaking... I don't have the energy. The Famine workouts are enough!!

A. Not quite. You start with a weight you can comfortably get for 10 reps. As you progress from set to set you'll naturally tire/fatigue. You'll get less reps, in most cases. Whatever you get, you get.

The key is this: Your first workout is your baseline. Let's say you use 100lbs for each exercise and get a total of 100 reps (for sake of illustration).

The absolute KEY is that next time you repeat that workout, use the SAME weight and keep the SAME rest intervals but you absolutely NEED to get more reps!!

Just how you go about that is up to you. If you need further guidance, by all means PM me!!!

Hope that helps.. :)

everythings is good, however ive tried melatonin in the past from Optimum nutrition and for some reason i COULD NOT SLEEP AT ALL as weird as it sounds.... ive always responded negatively to melatonin supplementation? i dont know if its a mental thing somehow or its just biologically isnt absorbed in to my body as normally would in most people ???
