You’ll find that thousands of other lifters would agree with me. There are even thousands of lifters out there using caffeine to their advantage without even knowing it through the use of a pre-workout supplement. This is because a ton of the most popular pre-workout supplements include caffeine in the mix.

It’s Easy To Go Too Hard When Using Caffeine As An Aid

Apparently, caffeine is a selective diuretic (agent that increases loss of fluids). This ties in perfectly with the point of this article because it’s all in the amount of caffeine you use in order to get better gains. That article by MedicineNet.com basically tells us that, yes, caffeine is a diuretic but only noticeably so at 360 mg (according to cited studies).

If you use pre-workout supplements this most likely won’t ever be a problem. Or at the very least, there will be less of a chance of caffeine causing harm or over straining your body. Even so, you should always be informed as to what you’re ingesting for your lifts. Don’t ever dive into supplementation without first knowing the fundamentals of lifting.

The caution being presented here is for those of us who like to do things our own way, never mind the consequences. Maybe you know anything and everything concerning bodybuilding, nutrition, supplementation, and are perfectly in tune with your own body. I am not one of these guys, but we are referring to the kings of bodybuilding here.

Basically, there are some of us guys who tend to throw ourselves into situations without first thinking it through. Downing a Monster energy drink after having had coffee earlier on in the day and then jumping into an intense lifting session would be this kind of situation I am referring to.

You’d feel pretty jacked up and ready to do anything, am I right? Of course you would, you just dosed yourself with good ol’ coffee (caffeine) along with the leader of this generation (caffeine + energy blend). Going into a lifting session with a pot of coffee in you is stupid, but this really kicks being a complete idiot into high gear. I should know, I’ve done both.

Just Take It Easy

There’s a reason why people buy caffeine pills. There’s a reason why the pre-workout supplements with caffeine sell so well. Caffeine has the potential to mix very well with certain forms of physical activity, and to ultimately enhance physical performance.

Again, if we take a look at science it is confirmed that caffeine helps. It isn’t necessary as far as knowing that caffeine can enhance physical performance, but this particular journal notes that the greatest benefits of caffeine come from its ability to increase time before exhaustion (aka endurance/what you can achieve with a single workout session). It also enhances physical performance and endurance when the activity is kept at a sub-threshold level (below max intensity).

If you’re a dude that lifts then use this to your advantage. Or anyone for that matter. Even if you aren’t after gaining lean muscle mass you can still use this caffeinated knowledge to your advantage if you do any kind of workout. There’s still a glaring issue here though. What is the exact amount of caffeine you should use for your lifts and what is the best way to ingest your caffeine?

How Should I Get My Caffeine Kick?

You’ll find some of the most popular products lifters/bodybuilders/workout addicts use to get their caffeine buzz going at the bottom of this page. All of the technical information I talked about above concerning the risks of too much caffeine and caffeine’s ability to increase physical performance is just that, pure science.

You don’t want to go into a workout so jacked up on caffeine that you feel as though you’ve taken some amphetamine. Hell yeah, you’re going to get some real nice lifts in. But at the end of it you’ll be left feeling like a dead fish. You’ll also be severely dehydrated and will have over strained your body to the max.

So, the key is to be familiar with how caffeine affects you as an individual. Know your tolerance and know what it does to you. It’s simply a matter of balance because while you don’t want to dose yourself with too much caffeine you also don’t want to be scaling out some caffeine powder from China in order to ingest the scientific caffeine dosage proven to be exact. The latter is a ridiculous example but hopefully you see what I’m getting at.

For some, a single cup of coffee pre-workout might do the trick perfectly without any negatives. For others, a cup of coffee might cause too much dehydration and over strain on the muscles/body to be healthy (along with upset stomach, nausea, etc.). I’ll say it again, this is why your first priority should be to test how your body reacts to different dosages of caffeine. If you’re the type of guy who simply drinks a cup of joe before a workout, it gives you a boost, and you’re left with a healthy workout, then you’re set.

Popular Caffeine/Pre-Workout Products For Boosting Lifts

A very tricky and simple subject all the same. The pure simplicity here is the fact there are grade A caffeine pills available online, backed by consumer reviews, and at a dirt cheap price. These pills give you a guaranteed dosage of caffeine (200 mg in most cases) and a guaranteed result if you already react well to caffeinated substances. See for yourself over at Amazon.com (free shipping, no taxes, proven service, etc.)

Even if you aren’t looking to purchase caffeine in a a convenient form, it’s entertaining in itself to see the kinds of results people report from these caffeine pills. They’re all pretty much positive and glowingly so. You have to wonder, were these people under the influence of the drive caffeine tends to produce while writing the reviews?

We know caffeine pills do the job perfectly, at least in terms of giving you the caffeine you want. But there are other ways of going about getting more pump going before your workouts and these would be pre-workout supplements. If you’re interested in buying pre-workout supplements then I suggest you really look into what other consumers are saying.

The area of pre-workout supplements is the part that’s tricky. In most cases, the popular supplements will contain caffeine as one piece of the puzzle. This means that it isn’t only caffeine that’s giving your body a kick. Below are 2 of the most popular pre-workout supplements and links to real consumer reviews. Why bother with reviews? Because you’re always going to find out about the very ups and the very downs of consuming a weight lifting supplement.

Keep in mind that these are referenced according to what the company names it.

• BSN N.O.-Xplode Extreme Pre-Training Performance Igniter (250 consumer reviews)
• Made by BSN
• USP Labs Jack3D 250g (322 customer reviews)
• Made by USP Labs

Remember, whether it be caffeine pills or pre-workout supplements you may be ingesting for the purpose of gaining lean muscle mass (or any ingestion at all) then remember to always proceed with caution. The best course of action would be to consult your doctor before starting a supplement regime.

Mossi, also known as Mossi Racing, is a company that specializes in active wear/racing/winter gear so that should give you a taste as to what kind of quality they aim to offer. Be sure to keep on reading even if you aren’t keen on the deal right this second as you’ll find out:

• What to expect from Mossi’s Deerskin Gloves w/ Thinsulate
• More on what exactly Mossi Racing delivers to customers with their products
• What Mossi Racing is all about and how to to find out more about the company itself

Look below to see what the gloves look like and to learn more about how they fair among other consumers and the product itself.

A Pair Of Gloves Is A Pair Of Gloves And These Are Sure To Do The Job

More On These Mossi’s Gloves

Mossi makes plenty of other cold weather gear and their products are generally well received by consumers, just as these gloves are generally well liked among buyers. While there are not many consumer reviews out there, the few that are remain positive for the most part (read real reviews here).

Buyers report that these gloves do the job as far as keeping the hands warm, just as any pair of quality gloves should, so quality is one aspect you don’t have to worry about. The only problems or issues that consumers have with the Mossi Deerskin gloves is that they run small and that they may not be best for harsher winter weather (meaning they may not do so well with moisture; rain/snow).

Mossi’s Black Men’s Snow Pants – Another Popular Piece Of Gear

With this in mind, if you are thinking of investing in these particular gloves you’ll want to take this into account. Basically, you’ll probably want to buy a larger pair than you usually would. But if you go with Amazon.com it’s really no biggie as they’ll quickly exchange your gloves if they don’t fit quite right.

In conclusion, these gloves seem to be a great choice for keeping the hands warm during the bone chilling winter months that many of us unfortunately experience but they may not be the best option for winter sports such as skiing or snowboarding. It is ironic, though, because this is an active wear company. However, what doesn’t work for others might work for you.

It comes down to what works for you and what expectations you have.

Mossi – The Company

As I mentioned before, Mossi makes all kinds of winter weather gear (view their stuff here). You could say they are a contender in the winter weather clothing market. Their most popular type of clothing would be men’s snow pants and it’s interesting because as far as their reputation among consumers, thing’s are a bit of a toss up.

If you’re interested in Mossi’s products then I suggest visiting the link above and if you’re interested in learning more about the company itself then check out the link below to visit the official website. Definitely worth a visit as they pin themselves as offering racing accessories. An active wear sort of deal. Their website is even called mossiracing.com.

• Visit Mossi Racing’s official website at http://www.mossiracing.com/index.php

The full documentary is available right now. The trailer is worth mentioning on it’s own though. Definitely check out the trailer below. Also has some great music done by Anthony Gonzalez and Curt Morgan. The way I see it, M83 fits perfect with just about any epic film.

The name of the collaboration between the 2 is called Three Corners of the Earth and the song, The Fire Shall Devour Us. Couldn’t think of better music to fit this trailer.

Just Do It…And Then You Gain Muscle

Nike’s famous slogan works for just about any goal in life. Addidas also has a slogan that’s on the motivational side of things too. Hell yeah they’re trying to sell you their shoes but they’ve got a point.

Think about it like this. You’re sitting here trying to find out the truth as to whether or not you’ll be able to gain lean muscle mass/get ripped if you were to put in the effort. See that bolded part, that’s what separates fat guys wishing they toned from the guys who are ripped.

I haven’t laid out any sort of logical plan as to how you can gain muscle as an ordinary dude (I’ll get to this in a bit), but what I have done is brought something that’s been rattling deep down in that head of yours right to the surface. You know you can gain muscle mass but what are you gonna do about it?

Without a proper mindset and perseverance nothing in this world would get accomplished. You can lie to yourself and tell you “it’s different with lifting” but it’s just not the case.

Protein And Lifting Weights

I will now reveal to you why any dude out there can gain muscle mass with hard work and persistence. However, if you would like to know how you can get ripped in just 2 days all you have to do is buy my book as the very reasonable price of $799. That was a joke.

On the serious side of things, here is how logic proves that you can gain lean muscle mass:

• By lifting weights you work out your muscles (yes, obvious)
• Lifting weights causes your muscles to break down in a sense
• Eating enough protein will not only repair but also make your muscles stronger
• Repeat the cycle and over time you will see gains

Protein Structure Render

This is pure science. If you do not believe me then head on over to WebMD’s article on protein which provides insight as to how and why protein is to vital to our being. It is the building block of not only our muscles but also our bones, blood, skin, and cartilage. As it is a macronutrient it is also much more than this.

The point here is that protein is very important. If you are lifting then you need a lot of protein in your diet. But this is hardly a problem given that there are many cheap and high quality protein powder supplements available online. However, getting enough protein in your system is essential because it is the only way you will see real gains.

You don’t exactly need to do the “1 gram of protein for every pound of body weight” regime per say, but the more the merrier. This is what literally gives you bigger and better muscles. PROTEIN, PROTEIN, PROTEIN.

How To Lift Weights?

There are stupid questions in this world and this is one of them. What you need to think about when it comes to the stupid question of how to lift weights is how you are going to lift weights. I’ve proven to you with logic that any guy out there can gain muscle mass but it’s you, the bro, that’s going to have to due the work, dude.

If you came across this article then you are most likely the type to get hung up on specifics. Don’t get hung up on specifics. If you are really that worried about the most precise and excellent way of getting your pump on then pay up and get a personal trainer.

On the flip side, if you’re ready to finally put some effort into building muscle and you understand that the basics work then the following plan will work just fine (keep in mind we are keeping things general with the intention of getting you started with lifting).

1. Invest in a gym membership, home gym, or weight set
2. Workout every other day
3. Rotate muscle groups (back, biceps) (chest, triceps) (shoulders, legs)
4. Eat a protein shake before and after each workout via a protein powder supplement
5. Eat plenty of protein, eat a lot in general, and attempt to keep foods “clean” (healthy)
6. Start small with the amount of weight and gradually work your way up
7. Keep consistency with lifts – for example 5 sets of 5 reps
8. Repeat the cycle and gradually progress your entire workout regime

Yeah, this ain’t the most detailed bodybuilding routine out there but then again this isn’t the point of this article. The point of this article is to prove to you that you can gain lean muscle mass with…regular ol’ lifting.

It’s just a matter of you doing something about it. You really have nothing to lose and it’s proven that exercise makes you feel better. Stop thinking, start doing.

Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar – The Review

What makes this piece of fitness equipment appealing at first glance is the fact that it’s versatile. Versatility is what grabs the attention of fitness enthusiasts, myself included, as it naturally brings more to the table.

My point being, who buys a home gym with the intent of only being able to use the bench press? The point of versatility when it comes to exercise equipment is to maximize your efforts, and to really tap into all those muscle groups.

The Total Upper Body Workout voices its versatility well with its ability to allow one to do pull ups, chin ups, push ups, dips, and so on. Hence, why it calls itself a total upper body workout. How well it does this is the deal breaker. Will it put you on your way to getting the upper body you want or will it merely sit and collect dust as much of the equipment that people buy do?

What Kind Of Shape Will You Get In With This Workout Bar?

Overall, fitness consumers like you are pleased with their purchase of the Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar. That’s not to say it doesn’t have its faults. Nothing is perfect after all.

Consumers are generally pleased with their purchase of the Iron Gym Workout Bar

And this workout bar certainly won’t do all the work for you. Getting on a routine of some wide grip pull ups and regular ol’ chin ups will give you a great physique if you stick with it. Pull ups (especially wide grip) are downright awesome when it comes to building muscle mass in your biceps and back, as well as many other individual groups.

A consumer using the Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout calls it a “great chin up bar” and goes on to say:

The Iron Gym is a great chin-up bar; it works exactly as advertised. It is very easy to assemble, use, and attach and remove from a doorway. It seems extremely stable, and I have no problem believing it could support the claimed 300 lbs.

This being a review that is rated helpful by many other fitness consumers when considering the purchase and comparing their views to the opinion of the individual who provided his thoughts for others.

Of course, there isn’t always positivity to be found when examining the consumer consensus as a whole. In order to function as a piece of exercise eqipment, the Total Upper Body Workout must be placed either on a door or the floor. Given the overall praise this pull up bar receives naturally reveals that it works with most people’s doorways and functions to some extent when placed on the ground for certain exercises.

But, total uniformity related to how the Total Upper Body Workout functions and transitions into real world use by real people just isn’t possible. And this is where some folks aren’t able to use this product properly or become frustrated because of a lack of functionality.

Another consumer, this time disgruntled with the Iron Gym pull up bar illustrates this perfectly. This is some of what this consumer says about his view on the product:

My door frames are only 3.75″ thick (including trim), so the IronGym sat at an angle, and didn’t but VERY slightly sit on the edge of the trim on top. In fact, as soon as I put it up on the doorframe, it dropped to the floor and the screw heads put a dent in my foot and my laminate flooring.

This kind of shopping annoyance is one that we all try to avoid. Thankfully, this kind of problem can be avoided easily if you have a doorframe thick enough for the Iron Gym pull up par. This consumer’s issue with the functionality of the Total Upper Body Workout is something you probably won’t have to deal with, and is rather minor compared to the whole picture.

If you’ve got the door, you’re set. All signs would point to a generally optimal experience with the Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar. Keep on reading to find out what you should be considering after purchasing something like the Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout.

As far as shopping online for this piece of fitness equipment, you’ll find that Amazon.com offers excellent pricing on this and other equipment like it. Rarely will you find full retail prices with Amazon (it is even on sale at the time of this writing).

How Will You Gain Muscle? How Will You Get In Shape?

We’ll keep things simple. There is more to gaining lean muscle mass and toning your body than simply purchasing a pull up bar. Essentially, if you’re buying the Iron Gym pull up bar (or even the Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar…the EXTREME edition) then you need to know the purchase alone won’t change a thing.

A simple way to go about using this pull up bar is to try to exercise every other day. The key is to work your muscles out, letting your body rest, and repair your muscles via protein powder and an overall healthy diet.

You don’t necessarily have to use protein powder but it will help you gain muscle mass more efficiently. You will not get the perfect body with a pull up bar alone but you will be working out major muscle groups. And you will gain lean muscle mass while slowly cutting away at excess fat depending on your level of workout intensity.

Protein, Nutrition, And Other Pull Up Bars

As mentioned above you really need to be on top of your nutrition game if you want to do things right in terms of achieving the physique you desire. An all around balanced diet is the way to go but there are hundreds of nutritional supplements out there which can make the process easier.

First and foremost you should really look into purchasing a good protein powder if you want to maximize your efforts of gaining lean muscle mass.

• Have a look a top rated protein powder here

Using nutritional supplements and vitamins is also another option that fitness enthusisasts use to their advantage when it comes to maintaining overall health and well being.

Structured exercise + proper nutrition/supplementation + consistency = A fitter you. Simple as that. If you’re going to use this workout bar or any kind of exercise equipment, make the most out of it and keep moving onward.

Phen375 Is OTC Unlike Phentermine (image credit: wikipedia.org)

Phen375 And Losing Weight

If you would like to burn off fat and cut back on the amount of calories you’re eating on a daily basis then Phen375 might be a supplement of interest for you. These are weight loss oriented goals and this is a weight loss pill geared towards making weight loss easier for you.

• You can visit the official Phen375 website at Phen375.com

Whether or not you have any knowledge pertaining to prescription weight loss pills it’s obvious that Phen375 aims to try and associate itself with Phentermine. Phentemine is better than Phentermine in that it can be acquired with no prescription.

Many, many people are interested in Phentermine and so Phen375 is there to show people trying to lose weight how they can easily supplement their efforts in losing weight through a more effective effort at restricting calories and burning fat. There is no hassle and only an option.

However, this still leaves one question about Phen375. And this is, how does Phen375 help you lose weight? Phentemine can easily be obtained for a try at making weight loss easier but this does not explain how it will do what it does.

What Makes Phen375 Work?

It’s not the name of a weight loss pill that makes it work, it’s the ingredients that do the job. You can easily see all of what makes Phen375 on the official website but we’ll break the ingredients down into very simple terms here. Seeing the names of molecules might make you cringe at first but most of them are extremely simple.

1,3-Dimethypentylamine Hydrochloride

There’s nothing complicated about 1,3-Dimethypentylamine Hydrochloride. You can think of 1,3-Dimethypentylamine Hydrochloride as a fancy name that stands for something else. These ingredient, known by many as DMAA, is a dietary supplement.

DMAA is interesting because it is a popular dietary supplement in it’s own right. DMAA can be easily obtained online and is so by many bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts, not to mention those trying to lose weight. Another interesting fact about DMAA is that a study found that it is to be considered a legitimate option for burning fat and keeping caloric intake down over time.

1,3-Dimethypentylamine Hydrochloride is considered to be an ephedrine replacement by some. It is quite a popular dietary supplement no matter what you consider this ingredient. And it’s just one that makes up Phen375.

1,3,7-Trimethylxanthine

This ingredient is quite easy to identify, and again, is fancy name for an otherwise common supplement. 1,3,7-Trimethylxanthine is simply another way of saying caffeine.

Caffeine is one of the most common stimulants used worldwide and much is already known about the compound and its effects. Chances are you’ve tried a cup of coffee, soda, or an energy drink at some point in your life so you may already be familiar with its effects.

Since caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant it’s quite easy to figure out why it is used in Phen375. Caffeine increases your metabolism, gives you energy, and helps curb your appetite. All of these characteristics are useful as far as losing weight goes.

L-carnitine

L-carnitine is another ingredient that is very popular in its own right as a nutritional supplement. You can find this supplement just about anywhere online for a good price and it’s quite revered by fitness enthusiasts trying to get into the best shape possible.

So, how can l-carnitine help you lose weight and burn off fat? The reason this supplement is used by health enthusiasts (and included in Phen375) is because of its ability to reduce fat mass, increase muscle mass, and reduce fatigue.

All of these things are great characteristics as far as slimming down and attaining the healthier look you want.

Phen375 And Your Success

The ingredients listed above are the ones doing most of the work for you assuming you are using Phen375 to lose weight and burn off fat. Overall, it’s a weight loss supplement worth taking a look at simply because it does in fact combine proven weight loss ingredients into one package.

If you would like to learn more about Phen375 then head on over to the official website at Phen375.com.

The Story Of The Shake Weight

After seeing a commercial for a product like the shake weight you have to ask yourself, “Does this thing actually do anything?“. There’s really no way around it. The thought of shaking something back in forth in order to get bigger arms or get toned is…a little strange.

The Shake Weight in all its weirdness

It looks like it might work out when you see a jacked fitness model on TV using the thing but it doesn’t prove jack when it comes to a normal person using it. If you’re not already jacked then it’s just you shaking a piece of exercise equipment.

Actual dumbbells - PowerBlock adjustable dumbbells

When it comes down to it, the Shake Weight is a really weird dumbbell. And comparing it to a dumbbell is even stretching things a bit. The company behind the Shake Weight claims that it’s supposed to work out your arms, forearms, and upper body. You can see how it’s quite hard to pin something like the Shake Weight into a neat category.

What Can The Shake Weight Really Do?

Believe it or not, you will find that consumers actually find the Shake Weight effective when it comes to toning muscles. The Shake Weight isn’t going to to get you jacked or help you lose a ton of weight, but it will do something.

Even more alarming is the fact that the Shake Weight actually has excellent consumer reviews. I don’t know about you, but this is really surprising considering this thing is easily lumped into the “as seen on TV exercise stuff” category. You normally wouldn’t expect this with all of the cheesy products you see on TV for exercising.

No, this guy did not get this big using the Shake Weight

Alright, so what to expect from using the Shake Weight as a piece of exercise equipment? First and foremost, you absolutely will not get jacked by using this pseudo dumbbell. The fitness models you see using this thing did not get ripped by using this product. They got ripped with a diet of perfection and hardcore weight training.

If this is what you were hoping for then I’m sorry to break the news. In terms of real potential, you can most likely expect a strange workout that will get a little tone going on for your muscles. Nothing huge, but something nonetheless.

This thing is really inexpensive even without savings and is a very simple workout. If you’re someone interested in the Shake Weight with realistic expectations then this is most likely the exact reason why you’re interested.

Products That Will Actually Get You Ripped/Really Toned

If you’re interested in putting on a lot of muscle mass or getting in really good shape then the Shake Weight is not the fitness product for you. I already covered this but it’s something worth mentioning once again.

The types of products that are going to get you ripped or toned up are real exercise oriented products like treadmills, home gyms, bench presses, exercise bikes, and so on. If you’re really serious about getting in shape then I suggest you look here for the best prices on the types of products I just mentioned. You’ll find all kinds of fitness gear that will put you on the road towards a great physique.
