Also what PWO do you guys use and how much caffeine does it have? I use Bull Rush with about 325 mg of caffeine per dose.  
 
I am looking forward to seeing your guys' stats/opinions!

Bench 225  
Deadlift 505

Ohp  
 
I use Hyde for a pwo.

WEW those are some good lifts, you don't do OHP though? is that because of shoulder issues? or does it just not do anything for ya?  
 
Quite the age gap here eh? how do it feel to be stronger than most teenagers at 29?

Age: 32/Female  
Flat Bench Press: 165lbs  
Deadlift: 325lbs  
Squat: 225lbs  
Overhead Press: 145lbs  
 
Personally I prefer to use FUBAR Fusion/Purple K Fusion pre workout,drink Allmax BCAA's throughout workout, post workout ON's Whey Protein, once a day use Allmax VitaStack.

How have BCAA's helped you in regards to endurance?  
do you feel like you can do more reps in general when you take BCAA's?  
 
Never taken them before but alot of people swear by it

For my program the use of BCAA's is to help maintain muscle mass when in a calorie deficit. It isn't used as an energy boost (pre workout).

AGE: 169  
BENCH: 405 X 1  
DEADLIFT: 615 X 1  
SQUAT: 585 X 1  
OHP: no idea, injured shoulder so don''t do  
 
No steroids, no illegal stuff.  
 
Preworkout: Food, preotein shake, BCAA  
Intraworkout: BCAA  
Postworkout: BCAA, More Food, L Glutamine  
 
Lifting On/Off for 2 years  
 
As for BCAA, greatly helps with muscle repair and does help to a lesser way muscle growth. Love the stuff, not sore for as long, can lift heavier faster.

19yrs old with a 405 bench! And a 6 plate squat!!! And "lifting on and off for 2 years"  
 
How much do you weigh? What gym do you go to?  
 
I'd love to come and watch you 1 rep max thoes compound lifts.  
 
BS. **cough**

Age: old  
Flat bench: 335 x1  
Squat: rep 405 (I don't max out my back squat)  
Dead lift: 495 x1 without straps  
OHP (Seated) 225 x1  
 
I switch up pre workout. Currently using shatter and a carb powder

Age: 36. Bench : 300, working weight 265-285.  
Squat: 225. started new program to up my strength. Currently at 135 for 20 straight squats no pause. Squat 3 times a week with adding 5 pounds per session.  
Dead lift : 350 cautious with back problems. Form is everything.  
OHP: 135 with shoulder problems  
 
Use BCAA. Great product. Used Burn 2.0 and rotate with Assault for my pre workout.  
 
Leave ego lifts at the door. Will not do anything for you.  
Also eat big. Sleep big to get big. Real food man. Real food and lots of it.  
Suffer from shoulder injury. Also I work out from home with no spotter so I am careful with how much weight I handle. Do not enjoy getting pinned under weight lol.  
Still can't express enough to eat real food and gets lots of sleep. Protein shakes are not meal replacements. Please lol.  
Be the bigger man and dial back the weight to get proper form. No cheat reps. And all my reps are full range. I see guys lift heavy but only 1/4 to 1/2 reps. Ass to the grass.

I see guys lift heavy but only 1/4 to 1/2 reps. Ass to the grass.  
 
I meant to say 1/4-1/2 range of movement.  
Full range is a lost art.

The ohp was suppose to have 145lbs but it auto corrected it out. I have been lifting for a long time. I don't feel special for lifting heavier than some people. I used to take all the supplements I could get my hands on. But found the best thing was pwo and real food. Protein powders are a waste in my opinion. Maybe if try creatine again but I'd have to be aware of my creatinine levels.

Preemo said "Age 29   Bench 225   Deadlift 505   Squat 465   Ohp     I use Hyde for a pwo. "

I forgot to mention my weight is 185 to 190 at 5'11" when doing these lifts. To give an idea of weight to strength.

Age-38  
Low incline bench press 200lbsx5  
Deadlift 275lbs x6  
Squat 225x6 (older I get the more I hate doing legs, skip way more then I should)  
Seated ohp-175x6  
 
Pres I use-scivation quake, carbon prep (non stim) blue star nutraceuticals p.p.k. usually rotate them and use carbon prep in evening workouts so I can sleep.
