All I had time for unfortunately but I'm smiling away! Will do military press on bench or squat day, ruling out thursday as me and the mrs are going out for a valentines drink, this'll be our 4th valentines together
How is everyone?

I've always been too chicken to try Hemp protein. Or any protein powders for that matter! Does it give more energy?

I wouldn't say it gives me more energy but it certainly helps to ensure I get that little extra protein quickly and efficiently especially post workout

I like protein powders simply because I can get something straight into me after my workouts when I know it will be another hour or so before I have any appetite.

Plus a scoop on my oats in the morning adds a bit of flavour and makes them taste better.

hey rossco long time no speak! your turning into a beast! its cool watching yourweights climbing up!

Hey mike! Yeah my strength is really improving which is bitterweet as it means I'll have to go out and buy more weight plates waaaah haha, I'm testing my maxes in a few weeks and it looks like I'll be maxing out my barbell on deadlifts! 135Kg+
