Still doesn't mean I have to agree with them :D . By no way did I mean to imply all biochemists are ignorant in nutrition. I was just really disappointed with this guy because a coach I know seems to think he is some sort of god. I constantly discuss about the use of creatine with the coach...

I was just taking to the head guy of the Elite Performance Center here in my city about nutrition, well I wasn't actually talking. Anyway some of the stuff he said I found just absurd, I really wish I could remember word for word of what he was saying but I'll try and retell it the best I can...

Before bed I would go with something that would take a long time to digest, steak with some cod liver oil and um a salad. Or whatever meal you could think of that would sit in your stomach like a rock. For in the middle of the night, if I was you I would be wanting to get back to sleep as...

I just stumbled across this and found it interesting. Hope it helps.

I have been meaning to ask this for awhile now but just have never gotten around to it. According to fitday my fat intake is really high, 40% lots of times. I usually try and keep it around 30% when I am keeping track of what I am eating but just wanted to know if there is any negative effect...

I'm a little to ignorant of the different types of ephedra for my liking and was hoping you could help me out. There is so many different types and I was wondering if they all have different potencies, and their different effects etc. Here are some short descriptions I was able to find from an...

Yeah I have been trying different brands, they all seem so far to be pretty much the same. I suppose they have all been relatively tasteless and you can't smell it unless you place your nose right up to the cup. I just don't like the feeling of oil, that is my main reason of adding the lemon...

I would think so, unless if anyone knows different?

I have also been taking in two tablespoons a day of cod liver oil. How does everyone else manage to down it? I think I have mastered it by placing it in a cup with equal or more lemon juice. Holding breath while I drink it then eating some sweat fruit (dried dates work good). If you do it...

This reminds me of a time when I was experimenting with different types of sardines (well flavors). I'm not sure if this is everywhere but here I always see these cans of sardines with different things added to them, hot peppers, mustard, tomatoes etc. Well I used to be able to stomach...

Restless, I was just wondering where you were able to find all your buffers? I'm hoping on using buffering agents and vinegar post workout soon but the only one I know where to locate is baking soda. I don't think calcium carbonate works as a buffer, Neutralize Acid to Enhance Performance they...

I'm not quite sure if I understand the use of buffering agents. They are taken to raise your PH levels which is supposed to help control your bodies lactate acid and some how increase performance? Which brings me to my second question how do these buffering agents control lactate acid? As for...

Your body is right, olive oil is high in monosaturates. Although taking extra monosaturates will probably do you good. I can't remember off hand what exactly they do but I think it has something to do with preventing heart disease??? I wish the weight trainer site was still up I always use...

Um on my bottle it states in caps lock DO NOT REFRIGERATE. I noticed that a few days after I put it in the fridge then took it out and put it in a cool dark place as it recommended. Any idea why this is so, it's just plain Norwegian cod liver oil? Steve

Well I just bought some non-flavored whey, what type of whey? No idea it was just labeled whey but for only 3.19 Canadian I figured who cares what type it is. I tried it and it kind of tastes like skim milk powder i guess. I'm pretty sure it's not whey since at 3.19 (2.10 US) they would have...

You eat every 3 hours for a steady flow of nutrients, same reason why we eat slow digesting protein and usually fat before bed. Lets just see you eat 3000+ clean cals for breakfast!!!

1. It would be better if instead of working out 1 hour after you eat to workout 2 hours after while still consuming a pre/post workout drink. If you can't do that due to time I would suggest taking a pre workout shake after work 30-15 min before workout (depending on carbs) then eat dinner...

The difference would be the amount of time for the protein to be digested and reach your muscles. Choosing the later wouldn't make a significant difference but to help avoid any difference. I imagine taking in the solid meal a little bit sooner (pre workout) would help. If you are going to do...

Take a look at this link atWeight Trainer about fats. It's a good read and there is a bit on cooking fats in there too. From what I understand it's all a matter of how warm you cook the fats, and polyunsaturates having the lowest cooking tolerance. I can't see why so many people like extra...

Peanut Butter Cookies 1/2 cup butter 1 cup nut flour 1 cup peanut butter 1/2 cup honey 2 eggs 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon vanilla Bake at 325 F (160 C) for 10 min. Nut flour is ground up nuts, I use almonds in the blender using short bursts. Be careful not to grind them to much or...
