it's just soy. the only thing where it has strong evidence of benefit is reducing cholesterol. so if you're worried about that, carry on. if not then waste your money on something else.

Unless I'm mistaken, these guys are talking about pure glycine. Soybean is certainly not 100% glycine, more like 2% w/w. Maybe the name has confused you?

yeah obviously soy is not 100% glycine, but that article is what comes up when you search for glycine on mayoclinic. the subtitle is "Glycine max," whatever that means.

dunno.

- daily routine

- used an odd bar today. had super rough knurling but spun heaps in my hands. grip felt weak and went mixed on top set.

Nice work man. I have never noticed the deadlifts from the plate before, have you been doing that long? and how are they working out?

the deficit increases the difficulty on the first part of the full and the stretch on the way down. i've been doing them for 3-4 weeks now. dunno whether they're working out, as with the decline sit ups i'm just doing them because t0ddday told me to.

WEIGHT: 172.2
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none, alhamdulillah
MENTAL STATE: very good

- warm up

- MB OH toss x 5
hit ceiling on every rep.

- one-step RVJ x 5,5

- depth jump @18" x 3,3,3,3

- paused speed squat 285 x 5,5
muuuuuch better than the other day. wow.

- DB push press 55s x 10,10
got it

- deficit DL 315 x 2,5
no straps first set, could not complete safely

- hip thrust 315 x 15
feeling the low back pump, this weight is too light, will use 335 next time

- decline sit up +45 x 8,8
last five reps of second set were concentric w/bar in front

- kroc row 75 x 20/arm

great workout, legs felt terrific, whole body felt light and strong. strikes me that i have not hewed that well to T0ddday's schedule for me on some weeks, including this one: skipping out early on workouts or dropping whole sets of exercises. that leads to workouts like this one where i feel really good, but i worry that it defeats the purpose of the way he set it up. mental weakness has been a factor.

nice job on the throws!

i don't get psoas DOMS, no. as far as how effective they are...dunno. i'm doing them because t0ddday told me to.

not sure how you'd know psoas hypertrophy was working because they're entirely buried.
