For Vitamin D pills, which brands are you guys taking/suggest?

I just went to walmart, picked up some Magnesium and Zinc pills…90 capsules @ ~$4 each. Not to shabby id say. They are no name but i dont think it really matters.
The cheapest Vit. D was $10 for 500 capsules…i skipped on that for now.

Today is front squat day, but my wrist probably won't be able to handle it. I'll try! If not, guess I'll do back squats instead... Or maybe the HACK SQUAT MACHINE~!

If it's the latter, throw them out and buy a new bottle. Luckily you didn't waste too much money 
Same with Zinc and any mineral - it should always be connected to something ending with "ate" rather than "ide"
And yes, I haven't updated my log in the last 2 workouts. I guess I figured nobody was reading them but me anyway, and I have it all on paper... Guess I'll keep it going, at least to keep the exclusive RS BB club active | |

If it's the latter, throw them out and buy a new bottle. Luckily you didn't waste too much money | They are the latter…magnesium oxide. It compared the jamesion one, which was 2x the price…it said 250mg i think of magnesium element. Then on the cheap one I bought, the ingredients said 450mg (~250mg derived from magnesium element). So i was like shit i rather save money and get the same thing.

Feel great after today's workout. High pulls, inc. db press, and front squats. My wrist is fine as long as I don't rotate it.
I actually failed on squats on my 20th rep. Luckily I had the safety bars up!

Is it cheapest to buy vits/minerals from a local place like Costco or is there a better alternative online?
I usually buy my iso whey from costco as they have pretty good prices Posted via RS Mobile | |
