    good protein bars

    IMO good protein bars are few and far between. Most have either a) sugar, and too much of it I might add or b) "fake sugar" ie sugar alcohols, which have a laxative effect, and aren't that good for you I believe I had a similiar problem and what i have done to resolve it is make...

    5x5

    bump...good questions by the way. I'm going to do the same thing you are Arbitro, I think I talked about it in an older post and you replied you were going to try it. I will go a step further down the bodybuilding intelligence ladder and ask what is 5x5? I probably should know . If i had to...

    Strength and cutting

    Thanks to all... and steel has IMO an important and often overlooked scenario Excellent point, for me at least, because I havent really gone to failure in at least 6 months, and I don't train with a spotter either

    Strength and cutting

    So I'm cutting, currently in the last week of 10s, am somewhat successful, but with all this talk about getting stronger I wanna jump on the bandwagon. I'm a pretty big guy, but I wanna be a strong cut guy. So I guess just as the topic says, can you gain a significant amount of strength when...

    Hypertrophy and Strength

    Am I reading this wrong, or is that saying that muscle hypertrophy doesn't occur until 6-7 weeks? That cant be right, but can someone explain maybe what that means...

    Desperate to fill out/bulk

    Not sure on the supergainer, but I think the general opinion around here is that they arent quality, lots of sugar and stuff in them, but I'm not sure. That would work however if you are going to drink your calories. Reps are repetitions, ie one complete movement of the exercise. For example 1...

    Desperate to fill out/bulk

    First of all, I hope you mean 156 instead of 56... otherwise.. wow I think you'd be dead. Read the FAQ, it helped me A LOT when i first started, and I shouldn't sound like an expert because it still helps me. And for your first workout you can even just take it right from the FAQ. Finding your...

    Post WO Nutrition

    i mostly agree with king protein, but a mars bar has what, 200 calories? approx that i think. besides the fact that you dont need an "extra" insulin spike, why not have something else that feels you up better like a cup of brown rice, or 4oz chicken. just my opinion

    Ephedrine is out

    this topic made me go check my bottle of ripped fuel w/Ephedrine and I realized i'm running low. So I did a simple search "Ephedrine for sale" and bam a bunch of sites were willing to sell it. Chupacabra was correct indeed, no loophole needed. I just now ordered it from...

    Protein

    just 2 average chicken breasts have 90g of protein, and i can have 1 breast per meal (chicken, rice, veggies or maybe lentils, beans, etc.) If you have 3 chicken breasts thats around 135 and as long as your not eating junk its easy to get a few grams to bump it up to 145. Chicken is my protein...

    Canned Soup

    I'm sure that ultimately, making soup or anything for that matter from scratch, ie controlling exactly what goes in it is absolutely better for you. But the question about canned soup being healthy is, based on my experience, a definite yes. Healthier than all fresh ingredients, not a chance. I...

    Canned Soup

    IMO it really depends on what kind you get. I dont worry too much about sodium, maybe i should, but i dont I just drink a lot of water. Progresso Vegetable Classics makes a few good ones, my favorite being lentil. It has like a gram of fat, 31 g of carbs with 7 g fiber and 11 g of protein. I add...

    Where to buy best tasting least expensive protien?

    I just got a few pounds of strawberry flavored WPC from protein factory, and its good stuff. I use that, primer and driver. IMO driver tastes just as good as a chocolate milkshake when mixed with milk, and its not that expensive when you buy from netrition.com

    Sugar and dieting ??

    spartacus is right. Olive oil and nuts are excellent sources of monounsaturated fat, those are up there with the fats that are typically recommended to BB's (along with fish/flax oil) Guy must be blessed. I am commenting on your post when you said that you only try and eat 1800 calories. that...

    "Low-carb dieters eat more, lose weight?"

    Aaron is right, no mention of what bodyfat was before dieting, and what it was after. It could be that quite a bit of weight was lost but lots of it was LBM, which i hope we all agree here is never a good idea.
