This sounds exactly like what happens when i drink too much caffeine. I don’t drink loads normally so it doesn’t take much to send me over the edge.
The strange part for me is that I average more than a pot of coffee a day. I’m no stranger to caffeine and I used to take pre-workouts regularly. I don’t really understand why I feel like crap now, but I do.
It’s kind of disappointing because occasionally I desire to experience that feeling I had when I first tried NO Xplode. I guess I’ve heard the same thing said about meth. The first time is euphoric and people spend the rest of their lives trying to capture that again.

Will grab the rows and abs this evening.
Felt luke hammered hell yesterday. Better this morning. Let’s hope it keeps getting better.
Trying to get used to using the belt. I have had it for a good while and have never gotten used to using it. It did seem to keep my back from getting fatigued on the OHP. Will keep trying.
This is my kind of warm up.
I’m also in the no belt club. Never really got into using them. Do you use them for anything?
I have never used it consistently. But I’m trying. A friend recommended getting it. Maybe if I start using it on the lighter stuff I will get used to it. I dunno. We’ll see.
I’m exactly the same. Just found mine undisturbed from about 3 years ago and was debating whether I cared enough to learn how to use it.
Power Puff and Brute suggested getting a tapered belt. (This one is a lever.) Maybe Santa will bring me ine for Christmas. My new bands are in the post office right now! So that kinda shows where my priorities are.
Getting stronger before getting injury free. I agree. Although in my case I’m just fairly sure I’m not strong enough to hurt myself seriously.
Lol! Same here
Whoo who! I got my new bands! And somebody can’t count! Got three black ones ![]()

There’s so many punchlines here I don’t even know where to start.
I just found my old purple bands in the bag with my belt. I know want to jack my whole program in and try some kind of conjugate mash up, just to have an excuse to use banded squats.
Focus man! Focus! We are "committed " remember?
But look! It’s so shiny:roll_eyes:![]()

Is that the Mountain Dog pack from EliteFTS?
Oh no. FTS is not in the budget. I found these on amazon for $20/ set lol
Everything pictured for $20?
Let me know how they feel. I checked Amazon and was curious about the off brand stuff.
