    Does Hypertrophy require much excess calories?

    @Aaron So are you saying, it is as good to just eat 2 times a day compared to 5 times? Or are you just saying it isn't proven scientificly, that 5 meals a day are the way to go. I mean it would make the day a lot more easy to eat 2 big meals and maybe a little breakfast and post-workout. You...

    Best wishes

    Merry Christmas Bryan and a happy new year! I've got an idea to the email-thing: Maybe you could make a forum for questions and answers. There you could put every email question, which is about HST, with your answer. Maybe you get answered a couple less emails like this, because it takes a...

    Enough Calories to grow

    1800kcal is very low to start with, even at your weight. I'd go for 2500kcal and then see what happens. If you don't gain, up 'em to 3000kcal. If you gain very fast, don't mind and go on with 2500kcal, because your body really need some more bodyweight.

    Pre-workout meal

    It depends on the fruit. Some have >90% fructose. But nevermind, it aint that important.

    Pre-workout meal

    I always begin to feel tired during training, when having a preworkout shake with simple carbs. Eat a good meal with lots of slowly/avarage digesting carbs and lots of protein 1,5-2 hours before training and you don't need any Preworkout shake, because there are enough carbs and protein...

    Working the Biceps

    Be carefull when you switch excersises. The new excersise should at least put as much strain on the muscle than the previous or else you have the RBE problem even if you increase the weight. My favorite are db curls sitting on an incline bench. It stretches the biceps more than ez-curls or...

    The complete guide to pre/pos/pos-pos nutrition

    I don't see any reason why to take a pre-workout shake, except you train early in the morning. Eat a good meal 1,5-2 hours before training. Then there will be enough carbs and protein in the blood. My postworkout shake: 90g Dextrose 60g Whey 5g Creatin

    Setting up a plan for myself

    There is a topic in the FAQ about Zigzagging. RM means rep max. So 5RM means a weight that you can lift 5 times before you reach concentric failure. 60% of 5RM means 60% of the weight that you can lift 5 times. For example can you lift 100kg 5 times in bench press. 60% of that would be 60kg...

    Setting up a plan for myself

    RM means rep max. Find your 15RM on monday, your 10RM on wednesday and your 5RM on Friday. Then take at least 9 days off doing no excersise at all. Maybe light Cardio but don't touch the weights. Start at around 60% of your 5RM and add 5% weight from workout to workout. You might repeat each...
