I've been looking for an alternative to Drive+ (Sorry Bryan, I was a faithful consumer, but the budget is getting tight these days). I'm mixing egg & casein protein and then looking for a good, cheap carb to mix in for a post-workout meal. I think I found my solution with infant oatmeal...

I eat eggs with a 3:1 white to yolk ratio. Don't know how much science there is with that, but for taste, it works for me. I eat eggs every day, usually a 3:1 in the morning, and then again before bed if my protien/calories are low.

I said 1, but it depends on your definition of body part. I do squats, leg curls, & calves. Do you consider that 3 leg exercises, or 1 quad, 1 ham, & 1 calf exercise?

Let them criticize. They’re wrong. HST works! I’m in my 5th cycle and, although it took a few for me to get it right & break old habits, I am really starting to grow now. I’m 31 and in the best shape of my life (hey, I sound like a bowflex commercial). I can’t WAIT to hit the beaches this...

Clean & Press + Leg Curls

oops. :crazy Posted in wrong thread. Sorry. Good plan btw.

Finding a good one has been tough. Problem is, my job doesn';t lend itself to cookin a meal 3 times during the day, so I could use a good quick balanced meal that I can eat during meetings.

What do you use for a Meal Replacement Bar & why? Also, does anyone know of a good MRB that does not contain High Fructose Corn Syrup? Thanks!

Not really. What changes is your caloric intake. Lower you calories to body weight x 9 - 12 (whatever works best for you. more accurately, bmr - 500). Eat 1 g protein / lb body weight. 20 - 25% of total calories from fats. Fill the rest of your diet with as many good, high fiber...

Is it still OK to order Drive+?

I've been working the C&P into my HST program, but I think my technique is off. When I move into the front squat I sem to lose my balance. Some times I'm winding up on my toes, other times my kness angle outwards and I'm not sitting far enough back and all teh weight is out in front of me...

For HST the diet that is best is one that is hypocaloric. The foods you are eating are fine, but the most basic principle to keep in mind is . . . To lose fat you must eat below your BMR, to gain muscle you must eat above your BMR. So, in what quantities are you eating those foods? I suggest...

I've read that sodium depletion is one of the main ways to obtain muscle hardness b/c it sucks the water out from under the skin. Does anyone know how to do this? Do you sodium load first? How long? How much? How low do you need to bring your sodium level? down to zero? It seems like nearly...

A standard lunch for me: Can of salmon, cup of broccoli. Pop in the micro for a couple minutes. Top with olive oil & balsamic vinegar.

I think it was a matter of not stretching enough. After a couple days of stretching and massaging, it finally went away.
