I am a decently sore from my last workout... Is it ok to lift today or should I take an extra day off and take it easier on my next workout?

I just got back from a trip to the sunny FL beaches and realized I need to lose a bit more fat. I know the best time to do cardio to lose fat is upon waking prior to eating, but I am not a morning person. I have read of people doing 20-30 mins after lifting. What are the best times to do...

well i am burping and sighing more, even hours after taking it...so until i hear some info otherwise im going to stop taking it. like you said, better safe than sorry.

I am on the last two weeks on my cutting cycle and the fat loss is starting to slow down. I decided to do a little more cardio and throw in an eca stack consisting of efeDRINE, caffeine, and r-ala. I have noticed that I am burping more often after taking the stack. I am concerned, as I know...

Well this opens up some other questions for me...I hope this hasn't already ben posted somewhere (I searched but didn't find anything). Why do 2 workouts MWF? Wouldnt't it be best to do one Mon-Sat? Or maybe... 1 wo Mon & tues, 2 wo's on Wed, and 1 wo on Th & Fri = 6 workouts total with...

i was under the impression that you are suppose to do upper body and lower body splits...can anyone clear this up?

al, people cut for both reasons...we are lifting to look stronger and covering the muscle with fat just makes you look like a fat guy.

I am starting the 5s today on my first HST cycle. I have been cutting and lost about 6 lbs in the 4 weeks that I have been cutting. I started around 191lbs and am now down to 185lbs and am starting to see the second row of abs starting to peak through. I am very happy with HST as I have lost...

no experience, but the entire market is filled with bs products, ESPECIALLY with the ban of the ph's and pro-steroidal products. the best supplement is food. get in enough good cals, lift properly, and rest...you will grow, but it takes time. if you are still interested in "help&quot...

I have been reading about bb and diets for years now...you will always find different opinions, but more importantly new studies will change what is done w/ nutrition. i think if you do a high protein meal 45-60 mins after your post wo shake you are fine using whey for post...someone please...

Ok, I found a thread on the vinegar and will be changing my shakes to the following: pre: 40g whey w/ water post: 40g whey, 5g creatine, 70g dextrose, 2 tablespoons of vinegar I am suprised at the amount of simple carbs recommended for the post workout.  I always did 30g dextrose immediately...

Interesting... Why the vinegar? What kind of vinegar? How much? I have heard of HIT, but what is HIIT? Thanks for the input it is greatly appreciated!

whoops, viscious posted while I was posting...thanks for the info guys. also I am cutting right now, should I cut out the dextrose until I bulk or do 40-60g dextrose to help creatine saturation even while cutting?

yes they are both in whey, but not in that large of amounts. I figure it can't hurt to have it there. What do you think about the dextrose, should I add more? I usually also have about 30g of carbs 1.5-2 hours pre workout with 20-30g protein. Any thoughts on changing anything with the carbs...

I have always had a post workout shake consisting of: 40g whey 35g dextrose 5g glutamine 5g amino acids w/ water After reading the article on pre/post work out nutrition on this site I have added a pre workout shake of 20g whey with water. I was wondering what others do, and if you were to...

thanks for the info! I am excited to finish cutting and get my carbs back up! I am thinking 10% body fat is a good spot to be around...how do you measure? guess in the mirror? callipers? I am thinking I should be around 10% once I can see the bottom of the 6pack?

once I start bulking and my carbs are back up I am assuming the glyogen content will return to normal and my muscles will seem to grow faster than usual until the glyogen returns to normal...? I just ate a 64 impala, many those cars are filling!

I know not to expect growth while cutting, I usually see larger losses than I am right now. However I was delighted to see that my arms have actually grown a 1/4 of inch somehow! I didn't know if that was typical with HST or not, I was hoping it was and I wasn't hitting the chest enough. I...

i have been very pleased with hst thus far, I started the first day of my 10s yesterday...I have been cutting since I started and have droped 5-6 lbs while losing no strength (as far as I can tell anyway) My arms look fuller and my stomach is flatter (middle abs are begining to peak through the...

I like wheat pasta, I will actually be having some tonight for dinner with a bunch of meatballs. I have a pretty fast metabolism so I can eat it even if I am cutting. When I am bulking I sometimes go back to regular pasta, but not too much as I love eating huge portions and try to limit the...
