Thanks guys, but unfortuately I will probably be on these for quite awhile until other factors end. My own thoughts are that this all began due to sleep deprivation and every time i try to go off the meds something weird happens and then the fun anxiety sets in. Not really much fun and almost...

I think i may have worded that wrong. What i meant was that the supersetting would kind of be the cardio for that day. I really have no time for cardio after my workout. I mostly want to tighten up and get more muscle shape. I'm at 5'9" tall and 214lbs with about 16-17% bodyfat. So I'd...

Ok, thanks 9to5! I never knew that people had gone to this so that's great to hear. And thanks for the welcome back! :) Btw, does anyone do any other reps scheme besides 15, 10, 5? The 5's used to hurt.

Hi everyone. After much time away I've returned to HST. I've tried other routines but every time I tried to tailor them to my needs they always seemed to resemble HST. So here I am. Anyway, just one question. My time is limited between work and home to lunchtime at the gym. Generally gives me...

Forgive me but, IMO, this is a sad topic. Personally I think all this hype about larger "members" stems from constant pressure from men (maybe not all men) for women to have larger breasts. Payback guys, payback.

I generally purchase my supplements from Fitness 2000 Superstore in Lawrence, NJ.

I was starting to have a bad reaction to whey protein so I stopped taking protein powders all together and went moreso towards actual food in order to get my protein. I actually wound up gaining a bit more mass than I did taking the powder. The only supplement I take now is creatine which is...

I wish I had a cooler answer than "it's my name", but, it's my name.

I suggest low-Carb beer. Less side effects. Kidding.

I do an am/pm workout, so if you combine both then it would be more like 1.5 hours. But I didn't vote that way. BTW, TheDunedain, you may want to consider dropping the "i" unless you're considering yourself in the plural sense. Just a thought. ;)

Well that's what I'm going to be doing from now on. Protein from whole foods. I'll see what happens for the remainder of this cycle and the next one, eating a high protein diet consisting of food sources rather than powders. I've kind of lost my taste for powders anyway. I'll still be...

For quite awhile I'd been relying on powders primarily as my source for protein. Lately I've been foregoing the powder and started to try and eat more, just to see how it would affect me. I have to admit, not only did I wind up gaining a bit more mass, but my waistline actually decreased about...

Hi vomit (interesting choice of a screenname) and welcome to the forum. To add my two cents in, I also agree with Jake in making sure your form is correct, as well as letting your muscles get used to the lift you are performing. 3-4 weeks of 15's is an excellent way to start. I would add this...

I was always of the impression that any excess protein that the body does not use is pissed away anyway.

I was told at my gym that a good supplement to take for maintaining muscle mass is glutamine. Is this true? Do a lot of you take it? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :)
