Syntha 6 is over priced and they use a lot of fillers. I was given a 2.5lb to try for free. Tasted great, but for me personally, too many calories (considering I use 2 scoops of whey for post).Also, it's 44g a scoop and you only get 22g of protein. I prefer my calorie intake from meals over liquid. I guess it would be good if you're bulking.

Currently, I'm using Iso-100 by Dymatize.

No, no don't worry...it didn't come across that way to me! :tu I look at it as honest feedback, which I appreciate. But you're right, it may taste good, but compared to ON's ten pound bag, there's almost half the amount of servings for a more expensive price. Which is why I decided to switch brands during my last supplement shopping spree. A lot of BSN products you're really just paying for the name, Which is why I've started shying away from their products.

Worked chest and tris today: dumbbell press on the flat bench, overhead dumbbell extensions, dumbbell lateral raises, front military press, overhead skull crushers, downward cable extensions, and push-ups.

Finally hit 100 lbs on dumbbell presses today for 12,9,8,6,5. I really surprised myself...for some reason, triple digit dumbbells have always scared me, so I've always stuck with 95s. today I said what the hell and went for it.

That could be the actual reason I've never used 100s...now I gotta bend down that much further to get those weights :r

Nice! If you're doing 12 reps at 100lb, you could do more than 100lb db. :tu

Well deserved off day today. ;)

Worst workout of the year today. Yesterday, I did a heavy back day, and had two hockey games 5+ hours apart.

Today was shoulder day, I figured I wouldn't have much endurance, so I would work for strength.

Nope.

So I figured drop the weight and try to get good reps.

Nope.

Tossed in the towel after a few sets, got in a decent ab workout and called it a day. Hoping for a better day tomorrow.

Much better day in the gym, strength still a little down, but endyrance, energy and focus were all up. Tomorrow's a day off, hoping to crush it on Thursday.
