:lol:

Ill look into pre doc.

I tried the Focus XT, it gave me a burning sensation in my testicles the first few times I've taken it, threw it down the toilet :cry:

I may have gotten an out-dated version, since the site seemed pretty old and odd, its legit but it was from Florida brah :x

Lesson learned , don't think any crap made in Florida :lol:

Those are the best kinds of preworkouts! :rock:

If you don't like it or if the product tastes unsafe (like burning testicles), you should return it goodboy (though it is a pain in the ass to go through the return process sometimes). :) There are so many health product companies selling old/inedible batches we shouldn't let them off the hook. :nod:

APS Nutrition is a solid brand goodboy. I haven't tried the preworkout, but their protein powder will blow you away :o so good.

Yeah well and customs charges as well, both that and shipping were pretty much as much as the product lol. First time I got something faulty though so its whatever. I'll stick to my Canadian based stores :D

Yeah heard good things about APS, though I think its a flow blown american supplement, even has teh flags of america on its logo Lmao.

:usa: LMAOOO I didn't realize it. Screw that all American product man.

Yeah, I was mostly talking about buying via Amazon (US) which has pretty customer-friendly return policy (they will give you a return label so it's free to return and usually no questions asked unless you clearly abuse this system). As long as you stick with the reputable brands you should be fine.

Ill look into it iggs. If it ships to Canada or not lol

On a side exercise note; Cable ab crunch super-set with woodchoppers(cable) for obliques is pretty nice combo, brings out those lines all over the obliques as well as abdominal s pop from cable crunch. Chit is nice, try it.

Hey thanks for the ab tips. I like woodchoppers (usually in my routine) and I do cable ab crunch sometimes too. It makes me look so dramatic so when there aren't too many people around me lol I need to work on doing more super-sets/drop sets so that I can burn some fat off and keep my metabolism up as well as hitting them muscles. :)

I abuse the drop set tool too much lol. I just love it. If you want alot of volume, gotta do drop sets imo. I use the tricep rope for cable crunch, try going heavy, it burns like a mofo. Weighted decline bench situps are nice too but gets annoying putting stacks of weight plates on you so I just resorted to cable ab crunch, far better since its constant tension throughout the movement. I do a lot of supersets for shoulders. Lateral DB raises to front raises etc.

Ok, so São Paulo won their game against Atletico Mineiro, 1-0, at home, which is a pretty poor result, but it could have been much worse. That's the good news.

Here's the bad news. During the goal celebration one of the bleacher fences came down and fans fell out of the stands. A few landed on the concrete and some of the players were first to arrive and carried them to the ambulance. Here are some pictures I found on Twitter:

Just to show how bad this is... Morumbi, our stadium in São Paulo, used to be one of the best in Brazil. The infrastructure is so precarious now that we get scenes like this. It is thoroughly disheartening.

I tried ahi tuna for the first time a couple of weeks ago and I'm hooked. I've been eating raw or rare ever since then.

16oz(1lb) of fresh tuna = 106 grams of protein and 491 calories. I'm substituting my beef steaks for fresh tuna steaks.

It's only 200mg of caffeine. That's nothing. I've had it before. Has a decent pump. But there's better out there.

You should look at this energy drink called Bang by VPX. 357mg per serving which is 1 can. Usually can get two cans for $3. No crash.

Inflamed testicles? I think you may need to see a doctor about that. Did you have lower back pain at all?

Expired supplements don't usually cause harm, they just don't work and taste like crap.

I Googled "focus xt burning testicles" and your post was the third option. :lol:

There's some labs down here in Florida, actually, that produce pro hormones and steroids. And I believe VPX is based out of florida.

That's not necessarily true. If you abuse steroids orally, then yes, you'll eventually have liver issues. But if you inject it, like all IM (intramuscular) injections, you're bypassing the liver. Taking steroids isn't all that bad. It's abusing them that causes issues. One normal on/off cycle is not going to damage your liver.

No lower back pain, it was the first time I've felt it. I mean it occurred AFTER my workout oddly enough and the supplement it self seemed liked it was doing its work. It also gave me a stomach ache after. I probably just had a bad reaction to it.

Did you take it on an empty stomach? There's 400MG of caffeine in focus xt. You should have taken a half dose. High amounts of caffeine can cause gastric distress issues.

But your balls burning is an odd one. I don't think I've ever heard of that side effect, lmao
