I finally started incorporating bodyweight work into my training, and can already see many benefits. I’m wondering though, about my supplement stack. Right now I’m using what most would consider to be staples: Creatine, protein and a pre-workout. I use testosterone too, 5-700mg/week. Is what I’m doing optimal, or are there better products I could be using?

Last week you mentioned Ecdy doing something to increase performance, something different than what I usually hear. Was it electrolyte intake or something similar?
Lars Thornholm
I’m using the 11 % solution you wrote about in The Bulletin. How would you ramp up the weight, before the 2 work sets?
Paul Reynolds
What’s your take on training to failure? Should I do it, and if so – what’s the best way?
Henry Kozlowski
I’ve been reading about Heat Shock Proteins. They seem promising but how come we don’t see supplements that work on them? Are there just no ingredients that make more of them? Also, what about nitrates? Like I see creatine nitrate and other nitrates around. They any good?
