Chris Shugart: @Alexanderaking: Sorry, I don't have any info on that.

Christian Thibaudeau: Ok, time to hit a chest pressing workout with Nick. Be back in about 90-120 minutes.

Christian Thibaudeau: No... the mix of PLAZMA and ANACONDA has carbs ;)

Christian Thibaudeau: @ DrDan... I circumvanted the questions about what I was drinking by putting the PLAZMA/ANACONDA mix in a G2 bottle :)

Christian Thibaudeau: @ Justin... No I haven't. But my personal PLAZMA/ANACONDA protocol gives me over 150g of carbs!!!

Christian Thibaudeau: That's actually the shoulder workout I did that forced me to rest my arms on a weight tree between sets because the reactive pump from the training and PLAZMA was too painful.

Christian Thibaudeau: (cont) (4) CONTRAST: 3 sets of 3 explosive push press reps / 1 set of pump work (either laterals or cuban press) ... do 2-3 waves

Christian Thibaudeau: @itisfinished... if one is to do a full overhead reactive pump session (which might not be necessary, I'll explain in the near future) it would look like this: 20 min. pre drink half of PLAZMA/ANACONDA mix (1) DB lateral raises pump partials (Meadows style... only going up to the 30-45 deg. angle) 3 x 12-15 reps (2) scrape the rack shoulder press 4 x 6 (3) scrape the rack shoulder press 2 x 10 top partials + 5 middle partials, rest 10 sec. + 5 full reps (more)

Christian Thibaudeau: @ mertdawg... I actually like pauses during the eccentric... I like that much more than going very slow on purpose, especially with advanced trainees... intramuscular friction will greatly help during slow eccentrics, robbing the muscles from some stimulation. And the more scar tissue build up you have in your muscle, and the bigger the muscle fibers are, the less mechanical work the actual muscle fibers are doing during a slow eccentric action.

Christian Thibaudeau: @ Justin... PLAZMA is special, honestly. I noticed a difference when switching from the old Anaconda/SWF to the new ANACONDA... but when I added PLAZMA it was like night and day.

Christian Thibaudeau: @Marty... I guess it depends on your mindset. Some people might need the time incentive, but most aren't that way, at least from my experience training over 500 athletes ;)

Dani Shugart: @CT, tell Gen I said, WAY TO GO!!!

Christian Thibaudeau: @ Dave-G... she crushed it when she did it for the Academy... she did very well today BUT had one problem with the push/pull machine... not because of the weight (the prowler prepared her for that) but because it was super humid and she had trouble with her grip. She still made it with time to spare though... surprisingly I found the tests pretty well designed and liked the fact that guys and girls had the same test and passing grade.

Christian Thibaudeau: @ Jacked: performance can go down the first week or tow, then the body adapts to it. But understand that performance in term of the amount of weight lifter can drop a bit, BUT performance in regard to the tension produced by the muscle will go up. Furthermore, the system will improve the capacity to perform at a high level even in a state of metabolic fatigue.

Dan Trink: @Arthurl12 I am a bigger a fan of sweet potatoes, but that being said if you make progress with white potatoes as part of your plan then continue to implement them. Carbohydrate tolerance, and nutrition in general, is a very individual thing. I mentioned trial and error in the article and this could be a great place to use that concept. Experiment with both, analyze the effects, and adjust. Just make sure the timing and portions follow the template.

Christian Thibaudeau: Anyway... her test where in a university sport center, which had a gym, so I was able to get a good training session in. I brought my ANACONDA/PLAZMA with me and attained the largest pump and arm vascularity in my whole life, just when I needed it the most: when I'm trying to establish status as the Alpha-male in the gym :)

Christian Thibaudeau: She will soon be proposed a posting then will have to go back to the academy for 4 weeks.

Christian Thibaudeau: Sorry for being late to the party. As some of you know I was away with my wife for her police tests. SHE MADE IT! So she is almost through with the whole process. She first (1) studied 3 years to get a degree in police science (2) applied for the police academy (3) did the conditioning test for the academy (4) went to the academy for 16 weeks (5) underwent a psychological profiling test (6) was interviwed by ranked officer in the provincial police (7) did the tests today...

Dan Trink: @cubuff2028 Haha I know where you are coming from. Everyday I fight my inner fat boy. I get the sense you bring those foods up with the idea in mind of a "cheat" day/meal. I will defer to the King of Cheat Days himself John Romaniello on how to go about implementing one because it can be done. I just don't feel comfortable recommending the foods you bring up (despite the fact that they are carb sources) as regular parts of any diet aiming to optimize body composition.

Dan Trink: @ZJStrope So long as the integrity of the "workout window" nutrition is maintained, the number of your feedings outside of that time frame is of lesser importance. Just make sure the meals you do eat outside of the window still follow the carb cycling template. I want the plan to work for YOU

ZJStrope: @Dan: Thanks

Justin Negrete: Jared will do.

iDrDan: @ wallstrt: poor kids were fooled! Now they think G2 will make them look like CT...suckers haha!

Mod J-Rod: @ Justin: Sorry to comment so late, but the Brain Candy placement sounds very cool. Let me know if you need anything from us.

wallstrt: Gatorade stock went up after CT trained.....lol

itisfinished: JN, Don't train in a facility that has anything remotely close to being that high quality. That makes the issue even more absurd.

Justin Negrete: scraped a bit, yes, not damaged.

Justin Negrete: its finished, if its a EliteFTS rack, it wont get damaged ;)

iDrDan: @ CT: those kids are now gonna go out and buy G2 and drink it periWO haah

itisfinished: CT, I can imagine that outline would definitely lead to a massive pump. Would you be able to substitute the scrape the rack work, if the facility you train in has "issues" with "damaging" the rack? This actually happened recently.

Justin Negrete: Great! cya!

Justin Negrete: oh ok gotcha

Justin Negrete: Wow, so Plazma has carbs ;)

Justin Negrete: Ill be patiently waiting for PLAZMA... CT have you tried finibars before a anaconda/plazma workout?

iDrDan: @ CT : I'm willing to bet you had a lot of people watching you lift at the university gym thinking "who's the new ripped dude and what is he drinking?" haha
