Honestly, sleep is the first thing I look at now.

I’m training for size right now. Give me good volume, clean reps, and a nasty pump.

Basic monohydrate is still in my stack. Train hard, eat enough, and stay consistent.

If it’s normal DOMS, I can usually loosen up after walking around or warming up. I’ll just lower the intensity if that muscle is still beat up.

Adding a rest day. Weirdly enough, that’s when my lifts started going up.

I’m still team PPL.

Banded shoulder work for sure.

I stopped being scared of lifting heavier. Once my form got solid, gradually adding weight gave me a whole new level of confidence.

Bro, these guys don’t mess around with the packing. Everything was secure and discreet, shipping was quick and the order showed up in good shape.

Magnesium is one I've kept around, mostly because I like having a consistent evening routine. I'm not expecting it to transform my physique overnight, but I prefer being intentional about the basics of recovery rather than constantly chasing another performance product.
