Well these "new" pharmacies causing a delay in shipping have been going on since at least March. I will personally give them one more chance, but only one.

Please do and thanks. I've got the Inzer Iron Zs and I'm not a fan. They are certainly well constructed, but the material is stiff enough that it doesn't quite conform to my wrist. Also the ends are so thick (where it's stitched) that when you wrap them real tight, the ends dig into your...

I think you sold me on them. I'll give them a shot. Thanks!

Any specific recommendation for APT in regards to which are more flexible? Also, anywhere else to purchase from? Seems no one can get ahold of APT since the new ownership a few years back. How's the flexibility of the material? My Iron Z's leave small gaps at the bottom since the material...

Thanks, but I'm looking for wraps, not straps. My grip is solid, but my wrist joints need some support.

I'm looking to get a new set of wrist wraps (not straps). I've been using a set of Inzer Iron Z on and off for awhile, but I really dislike them. I'm looking for something with a more flexible material that will make proper contact with my wrist. Any recommendations?

Avoid New Era like the plague. I have been trying to get going with them for MONTHS, but was delayed repeatedly as there were weeks in between email responses to simple questions. I thought everything was finally sorted and put an order in 3 weeks ago. After I heard nothing for awhile, I sent...

I think this is a solid theory. I was out of work for awhile and found during this time I had more energy during my workouts. More importantly, I had more time to sleep. I don't know about the rest of you, but during the work week I will often only get 6-7 hours of sleep. When I was out of...

Quoted from Katch, McArdle, & Katch's Essentials of Exercise Physiology: The bottom line is that a leg workout which is (presumably) more intense than an arm workout will release more GH, which in turn is beneficial to growth overall. It does not mean that you can neglect the other muscle...

I prefer to get my calories/macros from real food as much as possible, but that said, a couple summers ago I was ridiculously busy with work and life in general and found myself virtually living off shakes. Although I'm sure I was lacking nutritionally (unhealthy carb sources, lack of veggies...

I use My Fitness Pal also, but I always check the values in the database against nutrition labels and manually add a new entry if the information is significantly off in calories or macros.

I did dips for years, but eventually eliminated them due to dual shoulder impingement. The dips alone didn't cause them, but I am certain they contributed and they certainly exacerbated the problem once it was present. I soon decided to keep them out of my routine permanently as I determined...

This. ^ Check your ego at the door (we've all been there) and go light for 3-4 sets. Over the coming weeks, progress slowly on the weight. +1 on strengthening your abs also, but start light here also. Make sure you're not rounding your back; use a weight belt if need be. If your back is...

Adam doesn't seem to want anyone's business. It's always a good 3 weeks between replies and in over 2 months, I still haven't gotten any details from him even after sending him my blood test results, etc.

Kind of a Catch 22 since most NDs are, by definition, going to be opposed or at least resistant to the use of any drug for treatment. In any case, they are not licensed in PA. :/
