SHR # 2363 :: The BluePrint Power Hour
Show Notes:
[2:40] What to expect with bodyweight exercises.
- Use a hybrid approach of bodyweight and free weight exercises.
- Doing strict chin ups is much harder than doing pulldowns.
- Look to gymnasts for your example.
- The only thing that you are going to lose is a bunch of body fat.
- Even if you only add the chin up, you will still see benefits.
[10:00] What is the biggest lesson that Rob has learned the hard way?
- He wasted too much money on supplements and did not invest enough for the future.
- The longer that you wait, the more you will have to save because you did not take advantage of compounding interest.
- Bodybuilders do not make money from bodybuilding.
[19:27] What stims does Rob recommend?
- Almost everyday, Rob has used ephedrine for the past 30 years.
- Is the rhabdo issue related to ephedrine?
- Rob has quit ephedrine cold turkey.
- If you come to rely on a stimulant as a crutch, you are better off without it.
- There isn’t much better than ephedrine.
- Rob’s new preworkout provides a clean energy similar to that of a nootropic.
[37:22] What is your opinion on arginine?
- Large amounts are required via injection to increase GH.
- There are many alternatives that do work: glycine and GABA.
- Glycine is anxiolytic.
- Arginine can enhance the effects of GABA, and it can also increase mTOR.
- Somatostatin will act as a governor to GH release when using GABA. Arginine acts as a somatostatin inhibitor.

- Weight loss whenever you aren’t trying is something that you should consult a doctor about.
[1:00:10] Pushups vs. Benchpress.
- Pushups are a better movement, and you can always add weight if needed.
[1:11:17] Tip of the day: If you wrote a book, would anybody what to read it?
- Nobody will remember your money or material possessions when you die.
- People will will remember you helping them.
