8 Things You Should Never Do During a Workout
You were able to hit the sack nice and early and got a solid eight hours of sleep , allowing you to awaken rested, refreshed and energetic. You planned out and executed every meal perfectly, eating each right on time, confident that you have consumed optimal amounts of complete protein, high quality carbs and healthy fats. As you walk through the gym doors you can sense that your pre-workout supplement is kicking in, as a powerful feeling of focus, strength, and “singleness of purpose” overtakes your mind and body. You put your gym bag in the locker and are now more than ready to wage all-out war on the weights! Will this be the best workout of your life? Well, that depends…will you manage to avoid these pitfalls while training?

4 Supplements to Keep the Muscle, Lose the Fat
Sixty-one percent of your skeletal muscle contains the amino acid glutamine. After a strenuous workout, levels of it will significantly drop. This amino acid is crucial in maintaining muscle mass and fostering muscle protein synthesis. As for fat loss purposes, glutamine can offset fat storage, making it a beneficial supplement for weight loss. Let’s not also forget that as we get older, levels of human growth hormone (HGH) start to decrease. Well, glutamine increases your body’s ability to secrete the fountain of youth hormone; HGH helps burn fat and build muscle.

The Best Muscle-Building Supplement Stack
You can curl, lift, and squat all day, but without the right nutrients, you’ll never build up the bulk all that hard work is intended for. Muscle needs a pool of specific amino acids and macronutrients to properly repair (read: come back bigger). Plus, certain molecules can help your muscles fight fatigue while helping you push through those last few reps that will make all the difference in the mirror. There are a lot of products and minerals that claim to help you build muscle—and science does show some of them will give you small gains. But we’re looking for the big guns—the supplements with the strongest science behind them on helping you build bulk. And if you think protein is all there is to getting chiseled, listen up: Here are the five most important supplements you should be taking to build muscle. Don't forget to also check out the best foods for bulking up without getting a fat belly.

Sometimes Risk Is The Easy Part
We then would wonder if we would have enough air to get back up. With all the darkness we had no idea where the water ended and air began. It was all "dark". Once we did get back up we couldn't see the shore and had no idea how far it was or what direction to swim. We had to listen to the voices of those with us as this would tell us what direction to go. As we swam the voices got louder and louder and then we would finally hit the bank and someone would toss their hand down to help us out.

Improve Vascularity for an Impressive Look
Training for a pump can bring more blood flow to an area, which will make the veins in that body part more pronounced. Unfortunately, the effect is temporary. High rep, high volume training works better for bringing out vascularity. Lower rep, lower volume training has its place for building muscle but will do nothing to help you get a pump. Training for vascularity does not really exist. As stated earlier the only method to revealing your veins is to lower your body fat. Focus on training with progression and on building slabs of muscle. Being veiny doesn't really look appealing unless you have the muscle to back it up.
45
Half Reps for Full-Range Benefits?
No one will disagree that good form is important to avoid injury. But what this evidence argues is that moving the weight through a joint’s full range of motion is not necessary to increase both strength and size. Truth be told, I see several professional bodybuilders using a partial range of motion. There is an exception to this, however. When training for competitive strength events, make sure you train the way you will compete. If a competition squat is thighs parallel to the floor, then train down to parallel.

Sagittarius Horoscope for Friday, December 18, 2015
Friday, December 18, 2015 - Although it's nearly impossible to sustain a high level of enthusiasm all day, no one will notice that you're experiencing doubt. Still, you don't want anyone to know you're covering up a dance with low self-esteem today. Nevertheless, you feel vulnerable while the Sun in your optimistic sign squares the elusive Pisces Moon as she hides out in your 4th House of Security. The irony is that your friends and associates are likely to stand by you now no matter what. Taking a risk and sharing your concerns could foster the nurturing environment that you need.

Get Big On a Budget
Unless you have a cow you can milk or a pig you can butcher in your backyard, then you are, like us, at the mercy of the rising costs of bodybuilding staples. The harsh reality is that a trip to the supermarket can be a pricey outing, especially when loading your grocery cart with pounds of animal in pursuit of gaining mass like a pro. Before you decide to make tofu your go-to protein on the grill and ramen noodles a lunch staple, there’s a way you can still embrace your inner carnivore while keeping your grocery bill under control. How? By moving away from expensive proteins and turning instead to more budget-friendly ones. Here’s how to stretch your grocery dollar so you can get all the protein you can stomach without breaking the bank.

100-Rep Sets
Alternately, you can work 100s into your usual routine as a shock treatment. Do an occasional century set session for a lagging body part, or rotate such workouts so that all body parts get the treatment from time to time. Not only can this jump-start new growth, but it can also recharge your training in general, especially when you have nagging injuries. Don’t have time for your usual workout, or your joints are still reeling from your last one? Do one set per exercise for 100 reps. Such a routine will be faster and also allow you to train around injuries. You may look a little crazy and a lot weaker doing marathon sets. But, if used only occasionally, 100s is a smart way to foster heavyweight gains.
