Hey guys. I want to start a cut. My question is is it better to do a carb restricting diet and if so how many carbs a day, how many carb ups a week, or just a lower calorie diet with a 40/40/20, 45/40/15 split? My bf is at about 18% and i want to get it down to 12%. I'm 233 now and dont want...

Can someone give me a detailed example of a good HIIT workout?

Whats up fellas. i want to get certified as a personal trainer as well. Yall are talkin about NASM but ive also heard of NESTA, ISSA and NFPT. Is one better than the other?

A good smack might do but even better would be to pass him in the bench press over the summer. Remember what i said about eating a lot. Don't count cals so much and dont be afraid to drink a milkshake a day (peanut butter milkshakes are hella good and will pack on mass). Your strength will go...

Are ya'll saying 2 sets of incline curls a week is enough for a bicep routine????

Great site Mudge. Could you clear a few things up though. What are c.g. board presses and JM presses? And could you explain "pulling the bar apart?" Also if the tris are so important, should the be worked alone, if not what with?

I know bodybuilders arent preoccupied with their bench press max but at the combines they test strength with the 225lb. rep test. Should i keep doing my once a week chest workout or should i go to twice a week. and should i train the chest different like just flat bar bench or should i...

thanks DP is it just me or does it seem funny that someone can learn more about health and lifting from a free bb forum than from a twenty thousand dollar college education:eek: So are you telling me that i can stay on a very low carb diet and suffer no strength loss? Im a linebacker at 240...

dangers ive read about include: "the raising of uric acid levels, athe altering of electrolyte concentrations(initiating undesirable cardiac arrhythmias, causing acidosis, aggravated kidney problems due to the extra solute burden placed on the renal system, elevated blood lipids, depleted...

I have a question about low-carb diets. Im an exercise science major and have read about the dangers of low carb, high protein diets such as the Atkins diet (esp. for lifters and athletes b/c of muscle loss). Yet the recommended carb intake of 400-500 g (for athletes) seems excessive. Also...

p-funk, i played for pine bluff (Ark) in hs and i ll be a senior at Arkansas State this year. your right though i still have some fat on my stomach that i cant get rid of. Any way to get rid of it and still maintain my weight? i'm 240 now and i really dont want to get lower than 220, anny...

No exaggeration, p-funk but it wasn't all muscle either. But i was able to fill holes as an ILB and take on 240lb FBs that i woulda never been able to do at 165. Ive had to drop a lot of fat and gain a lot of muscle since to play D-I but i had 4 more years to work on that. Thats what i was...

Cell - Tech gave me great results but alot of people dont like it:mad:

P-Funk probably did give you better advice, :eek: but its not realistic in your situation. First, if your anything like i was at sixteen your not going to have a 5-6 meal a day disciplined, low fat, low carb diet going on. I mean come on p-funk tha man is 120 at running back. i dont think his...

I've always thought back & bi's go together as do chest and tri's but most of the advice in these forums suggest chest/bi's and shoulder/traps/tri's. is this written in stone?
