I enjoy jasmine, it works well for me.
Incline DB I was doing sets of 10ish and on BB was the sets of 6. I'm following a set program from John Meadow's, I ran it before and found I got good gains so ideally I'd like to stick to the program and run it through again.

stick to jasmine if you good with it bro but how about 30/70 brown/jasmine that cool or you want to go solo?
I would still add a lighter set, you got different genetics then john meadows, hes legit but legit for guys who are close to his genetic build brotha you follow? @OceanView

I've got about 8 kilos of jasmine to work through lol once that's gone or close to gone I'll add in the brown and make the switch lol too much to go to waste right now.
And that's a very fair point. What if I rotated, one week 6-8 reps for incline BB, then the next week 12-15 incline BB? Would that work?

On the hacks, what was the weight?

Overall I like the fulness of your training with cardio and weights. very good mix.
And you're steady on the foods, how do you feel now? @OceanView

The last set of hacks was 290lbs +whatever the resistance of the machine is (not sure of that).

Overall I'm feeling great, feeling strong, ready for another hard stretch of training. Currently fighting a bit of a head cold, but I think I'm almost over it now

Perfect and zinc too?

I take 30mg of zinc glycinate per day normally, should I take more to battle the cold?
