Show Notes:
[7:00] What staple supplements can be purchased at Walmart?
- NOT protein, creatine, or pre-workouts.
- Gaba capsules.
- Green tea extract.
- It is usually better to buy everything online.
[14:40] Opinions on pre workouts? Is black coffee okay before a workout?
- A small amount of caffeine/ ephedrine is Rob’s favorite pre workout.
- Cayenne pepper capsules are much underrated.
- Organic matcha green tea also makes a good pre workout
- Try to get away from coffee on days that you do not train
- If you have to take pre workout just to get into the gym, you need to take the day off.
[20:45] Natural supplements to increase protein synthesis.
- Food. 1 gram of protein/ lb of bodyweight.
- Calories at 20x bodyweight.
- Resistance training and amino acids.
- No amount of creatine beyond saturation will yield benefits.
- EAA’s during training (At least 6 grams.)
[29:11] Why does Rob look good at the age of 50?
- Consistency.
- Exclusive focus on compound movements.
- Heavy training for myofribullar hypertrophy.
- He also placed heavy emphasis on taking care of his joints and tendons.
[40:56] Where is the research on Ecdy going next?
- Ecdy will be a mainstream product on the level of glucosamine.
- Rhaponticum Carthamoid extract is the richest source of ecdy.
[48:50] GH for increasing height at the age of 19?
- No.
- It is too late to make a difference when you are 19.

- Yes- All stimulants could be dangerous for a child.
[1:07:52] Tip of the day: Revisiting Tribulus.
