Unironically based and redpilled

>>76787885 (OP)

beginner =
1. drinks protein shakes religiously (whey in the morning+post work, casein b4 sleep)
2. must have well known pre-workout boosters: C4, no-xplode

advanced =
1. prefers real meals over supps
2. focuses on pumping by taking pump supps and to loosen up fascia by rolling, massaging, whatever it takes
3. actually knows anatomy and physiology and able to connect that with lifting
4. cares more about intra workout like karbolyn than pre

I did start out listening to Disturbed, I switched to Creed and similar stuff then to Symphonic power metal like Nightwish and Stratovarius, now I'm on my Katy Perry era.

I actually have a Creed lifting playlist

I fucking hate the blatant white monster viral marketing. You are all fucking sheep advertising for free.

>>76788163
White Monster sucks anyways, I like classic.
Also bring back the og Monster Assault you fucking pieces of dogshit.

>>76787885 (OP)
IDK if it's because once I reached 5/4/3/2 I just quit caring about my macros and all that jazz, or if I figured out I can still lift these weights with a normie lifestyle. Before I could pull 4 plate I had a very strict diet and routine. Now that I do it for reps I eat whatever, whenever (still try to be healthy though) and lift whatever I feel like lifting that day.

>>76788175
Fucking thank you. White monster is overrated tiktok cringe. OG green and blue are the GOAT. Pic unrel no idea what it even is actually

>>76787885 (OP)
Add lifting belt and paper lifting journals to beginner. Every DYEL in my gym uses those

>>76788186
They have classic zero now that tastes almost the same as real classic, maybe like 10% worse so that's nice.
Most of the sugar free colors like white, pink, green etc suck dick, mango is passable but that's it really.
Tierlist
1. Monster Assault OG
2. Classic
3. Classic Zero
4. Bad Apple
5. Mango
Other then these only the golden pineapple one is passable imo.

>>76788191
>paper lifting journals to beginner
I've literally never seen anybody do this, they either don't journal or they use the notes app on phone or FitNotes.
Usually dyels use the lifting belts they have in the gym for communal use.
Also another rookie blunder, not having toilet paper in your bag at all times.

>>76788199
>I've literally never seen anybody do this, they either don't journal or they use the notes app on phone or FitNotes.
My gym gives them for free with every new contract.

You can tell that it's bullshit because all of these beginner lifter vs advanced lifter things are made by intermediate lifters.
The reality about advanced lifters is that there's zero consistency among them.

Both are literal slop and now we found out recently that they were laced with lead.

Foam rolling is a meme for noobs. So are hip stretches before squats and deadlifts.

My pet theory is that caffeine while giving you a slight performance gain during training is ultimately counterproductive because it will interfere with sleep and hence recovery.

>giving you a slight performance gain during training
It doesn't, not on low reps. It's net negative because of caffeine jitters fucking your balance and form.

>>76788163
HERESY

Individual variations in the metabolism of paraxanthine, caffeine's primary metabolite which has similar properties, can result in the effects of caffeine lingering well over a day after ingestion. This will affect a small minority of people, most commonly East Asians (IIRC, ~20% of a Japanese cohort in one study had at least one defective CYP2A6 allele).
Very rare. But chances are someone reading this thread could have one or two defective/deleted CYP2A6 alleles.

>>76787885 (OP)
The only sensible items are the playlists and food tray.
Why don't more people have natural caffeine like tea or even coffee?

>>76790441

the monster energy psyop is getting so tiresome. seeing it all over zoomer memes, just like the foot fetish psyop.

0. Rehab Yellow (Arnold Palmer)

Fugg all these newfags don't know about sipps. Its not marketing its a meme that went full circle into normies consuming it unironically which compounded in market interest from the alt/gym zoomer combo. Its supposed to be a joke.

>>76793223
Rehab are those shake up tea ones right? I never liked any of those personally.

>>76787885 (OP)
No I mostly listen to modern rap now
Also cheap whey doesnt taste disgusting anymore

I honestly have been huge on dehydration and it only really helps you get in the zone if youre tired and low carb anyways.

its too late, hype is over

it came from us anon, we liked white monster and we put it out into the collective consciousness. 4chan is the trend setter for some reason

>>76793346
it was never supposed to be a joke completely, white sips are good.
rehab is better though

>>76793488
Yeah, black tea as the base moggs the carbon water in most of the other ones. Lemon juice as the flavor over erythritol too.

>>76788163
retarded newfag white monster started here years before the zoomers on tiktok got on it

>>76789426
Why would you want lax soft muscles before you lift?

>>76788021
>2. focuses on pumping by taking pump supps and to loosen up fascia by rolling, massaging, whatever it takes
my legs are really fucking tight is this the sauce that I'm missing? I do youtube yoga at home sometimes and one instructor mentioned fascia I didn't know what she was talking about.

During covid lockdowns I drank 4 mango monsters a day, rotted pretty much all my front teeth at the gumline, was gnarly, paid a fortune to get that shit fixed. Fuck energy drinks.

I have come to the same conclusion. It also fucks with collagen production. I quit for a few weeks and noticed all of my lingering joint/tendon issues seemed to improve noticeably.
Working a 9-5 without a little stim boost kind of sucks though. Trying to find the balance of only drinking a little coffee a few days a week, instead of every day.
>>76790441
this works too if you lift in the morning.
I never have caffeine before lifting since I lift after work. I think you also get better pumps/bloodflow during the workout without stims, especially if you take a pump preworkout or some L-citrulline.
I think if you do a cost benefit analysis, stims can definitely improve strength/performance in the gym but you have a higher injury risk since you are lifting heavier, with slightly decreased recovery due to sleep interference and lower collagen production. So you should only use stims periodically then take breaks for multiple weeks to reset tolerance and recover.
