Nevermind premixed supplements, stick to the basics and take lots of them. I bet it will help! Maybe not with your knee, but the other stuff should feel better.

100lb db shoulder press today. elbow got completely fucked on 6th rep. couldn't even work out properly after that. now it still doesn't stop hurting. wonder what I did wrong. SO HARD to move up in weight for shoulder press. I can do 85's no problem everytime. When I'm feeling good I can do 90s no problem, 95 are hit and miss. Today I was feeling good so I went 90x10 no problem rested about 1-2 mins and went for the 100's and right eblow obviously did not enjoy this very much. it was hurting a little since my back/chest day on Thursday.
edit: its not actually the elbow joint but the area right above the elbow joint. Even the shoulder is feeling it a bit right now  | |

Were you doing the presses with a neutral grip, or palms forward?
IMO standing DB press is best done with a neutral grip (or at least rotating with thumbs going out at extension), and the foot of the working leg forward when high weights are used...

I do them standing, one arm at a time. Helps prevent injury, you see  The weights won't be as high, but numbers are irrelevant IMO.

So if you are going from 60 lbs to 75 lbs single sided, it's just as good as going from 80 lbs to 90 lbs double sided. Quote:

I seem to get a way better pump and my shoulders feel like they've done a ton more work. And thats at 15-20lbs per side less weight than conventional shoulder presses. And I feel like I can go deeper on them too.

We, or I anyway, have pretty much thrown the routine out the window and Im just doing whatever feels good. Nothing hurts, actually everything feels fucking awesome. Im fiending for workouts.
I think Im growing like a motherfucker right now too. Will post pics in the log in a few weeks.

You eat food, it's mostly in the form of whey, fish oil, and some peanut butter. You add supps like leucine and a post workout drink on training days, and eat a healthy 'solid' meal once a week.

30 days
But you can keep doing a moderate version after that for another month or so - eating a solid meal once a day for a while, working up to 2, etc. You could lose a lot more than 20 lbs.
Basically it can be done with any low carb diet with weight training, but this FORCES you to do it, if you have the willpower to stick to it. It's not easy after the 2nd week.
But in the end, it actually has an effect of resetting your palate, so you don't really crave carbs at all anymore, and just use them as fuel on the rare occasion where you'd need carbs for fuel.
