I want some verification that neanderthal man was leaner and more muscular than bb'ers today. Also, as you noted, genetics is a factor. Silverbacks are much more muscular than humans and they eat vegetable/fruit all day. Should we eat like gorillas?

ttboyy2k: I am glad to hear that you are getting positive results. BTW, make sure you get some choline bitartrate, and take it with the stack. It is relatively cheap.

proteus: Sounds good. Hopefully, you can fall asleep earlier. Also, you can experiment with taking l-theanine a bit later, closer to 9 p.m. =============== Sean: It sounds good. Also, ordering from 1fast400 should be fine. Making your caps is tedius.

proteus: (1) Some people are very sensitive to ALCAR. (2) It seems that ALCAR is building up inside your body, so greater effect as days go by. I bet that, even if you stop taking it for a day, you will still feel fine (until ALCAR leaks out of your system). =================== I can think...

proteus: 1. ALA -- I think ALCAR administration was shown to slightly increases the rate at which cells produce harmful waste products (in mice experiments). ALA neutralizes it. 2. choline -- Continuous consumption of ALCAR increases the rate at which ALCAR is eliminated from one's body...

Randy: I wish I read your post earlier. Singleton is right. You are doing too much volume for this type of workout. You need to cut your workout in half. Perhaps you can increase the cardio, which tends not to impact your body as much. I have a favorite lifting workout routine that spans...

$90 for 16 weeks??? That is really cheap. I am probably not going to be able to beat that price with 1-test. I might be able to get pretty close, however.

Biz, Have you had a chance to use transdermal 1-test? One person (clams to be a long time juicer) who injects 1-test cyp compares it to trenbolone acetate, in terms of its potency. So, I am wondering if 1-test transdermal (with extra 1-test added into the mix) would be as potent as Finasol...

Agree with Pauly on theoretical fronts. Just hard to do what he says, because the "rate" of fat loss is pretty difficult to measure, unless one is really disciplined about lifestyle.

I believe monitoring your strength level is better way to gauge your leptin level. Assuming that you have been holding all your dietary variables and recovery variable constant, at hypercaloric diet, you know that your leptin level is "relatively" low when you start gaining mostly fat...

You had better results from it than from myostatin blockers, right? ;)

micmic: If the above is the case you are talking about (in which fat burning catches up with lipogenesis) then we are in agreement. But there are other scenarios. One scenario involves refeeds in CKD. Here, we are trying to push the limits of glycogen storage without fat creation during...

micmic: (1) I did not mean fructose is complex carb. (2) I was mistaken about its glycemic index (confused). (3) lipogenesis -- I hope you expand on what you said. From what I gather, if one is carb depleted, one can consume about 12 g - 14 g of carb per lb of weight (or lbm?), if one is...

mikeynov: I understand your position :) There is one more factor in the equation: most of today's sugary food contains fructose. fructose (and sucrose) is much more likely to initiate lipogenesis than other complex carbs. GI of fructose, interestingly enough, is very high. One more thing...

mikey: As per high GI or low GI carbs, Aaron is probably right. Others who know something about this area says the same thing: for "normal healthy" folks, GI does not make much difference, as long as identical calories are consumed. (Lyle McDonald, Elzi Volk, Robert Thoburn, etc.)...
