    question about protein supplements

    we'll see - maybe i won't cut out milk entirely - i'll do that to start to see if my bowel issues disappear, and then reintroduce it slowly. So i'll be using water to start.

    question about protein supplements

    thanks - 21 servings that's a total of about 13,000 calories. Which is basically half a month's worth of what i need. So if i buy 2 of em, that's about 50 bux, which equals about 80 canadian. So it works out to about half the price of what i'm paying for milk. I can't take in any more calories...

    question about protein supplements

    I'm basically looking to replace milk (which i spend 150 bux canadian a month on) and perhaps one meal on some days. I eat way more solid food than most people, and i'm not looking to reduce this to a lower than normal level of intake. As for economic sense, you may be right, i will have to do...

    question about protein supplements

    the tone is your interpretation here. I was emphasizing it becauase you were not really understanding me. I will repeat again: I want a carb AND protein supplement. I intend to get around 1000-1500 calories from this supplement on a daily basis. I also intend to get about 100-130 grams of...

    question about protein supplements

    tx dkm - what i will probably end up doing is buying two sets of powders - one slow and one fast. Is there anything I should avoid - any notorious brands that are poor quality? Another main reason i'm doing this is to get off milk (as i said i was drinking 2l of (lactose free) milk a day and...

    question about protein supplements

    also bear in mind that cottage cheese is not very protein dense. The 750 ml tubs i buy only contain 90 grams of protein. I get almost exactly that amount of protein from my daily milk consumption.

    question about protein supplements

    i've been eating solid food for the last year and half and am getting 4000 calories and more than enough protein from solid food. I have never used protein powders before. However, due to employment constraints, I will be needing a meal supplement that is easy to drink and is portable...

    question about protein supplements

    you're not understanding - here is my logic: a) whey is a fast protein b) fast proteins are ideal primarily for pre workouts and perhaps mornings c) slow proteins are ideal for everything else. d) everything else is more common than preworkout and morning e) a general purpose protein...

    question about protein supplements

    assuming i'm not able to make my own concoctions, would you recommend a whey based mixture if i'm looking for an general all purpose protein/carb supplement? I'm just wondering why whey is so popular considering it has the disadvantage of being a fast protein, which means you don't get the...

    question about protein supplements

    I'm about to purchase a protein/carb supplement since i'm sick of drinking 2 litres of milk a day. Looking for something dense in both calories and protein. I've noticed that whey protein is so popular, but isn't whey a fast protein, that is ideal only for pre workout and perhaps morning...

    Straight Leg Deadlift Form

    keep those shins perpendicular at all times, else you'll be doing more of a bent legged deadlift. I don't start with knees bent - i bend them as part of the motion. Always keep back arched, so even if back is parallel at end of motion, it's curved. the link daniel posted has no knee bending...

    heat can reduce atrophy

    I was alluding to using the "heat technique" during SD. I shoulda been clearer. So the question still stands - does this heatshock protein discriminate between muscle fibres and connective tissue? If not, then perhaps heat therapy during SD is not wise.

    counting grams of protein

    thanks - so i can be sure that every gram of protein i count on my foodlists is digestible. For instance 2 slices of the bread i buy contains 9 grams of protein. I can include this figure in my total protein input right?

    counting grams of protein

    I don't know much about fibre and roughage, but isn't fibre the stuff that helps keep your digestive tracts "well plumbed"? In that case, some stuff doesn't get digested into blood stream, but rather is used by the body for its material properties. If one were to eat a portion of bran...

    Straight Leg Deadlift Form

    I prefer to do em sorta like keystone or romanian deadlifts. Keep the shins immobile during whole movement, and bend the knees about 45 degrees while going down until back is parallel to ground. In order to keep shins immobile, your @$$ has to protrude outwards. I also prefer to do em with both...
