What pre-workout would you suggest then? I always went with JACK3D, but it seemed that bodybuilding.com didn't sell it on their site anymore. |
I think MuscleTech is pretty much garbage, however, I have heard a few people say Neurocore isn't bad. Quote:

| I am not a big pre-workout person, just eat a good meal with lean protein and complex carbs about an hour to an hour and a half before workout and you will be good to go. |

I don't do 1RM's... Don't see the point other than lame-ass bragging rights.
Most of my sets tend to be 4x8's, I'll drop to 3-5 reps if I'm trying to put up more weight, 8-10 if I'm really feeling it.
Squat: usually in the neighborhood of 365lbs
Bench: 95-110lb dumbells (haven't done barbell in months)
Shrug: ~455lbs
Deadlift: 315
Just some general stuff, upper chest and shoulders can be difficult for me because of a bad rotator cuff and damaged cartilage in my left shoulder but I get it done. | Doing legs is so overrated. I can understand working calves out but nobody even hardly sees your upper legs. |

I had your mindset for a long time, but I am so happy with my legs. I've lifted them consistently for 18 months now, and am satisfied with the results....even if only one other person sees them. |

| Doing legs gives me a better overall feeling. I just feel better. |

It's widely accepted that even if you're a guy who prefers to focus on upper body, not working out legs holds you back in a big way. |

| I've noticed most guys who just focus on calves can rip them out, but they still don't come close to matching their arms, and they tend to look silly. I think most people have to hit their thighs to get their calves right. |
