Does it have the same effect as say T-injections, patches, or Androgel, where your body stops producing as much after a while because it's getting it via artificial means? What exactly is the science behind this stuff?

No. Most of the time these are trace amounts. That's enough to harm a pregnant woman (more specifically just the fetus) but for a 25 year old male there's no problem. hark, swordfish, king mackerel and tilefish are the worst....others contain less. Your more likely to get run over by some...

Does any serious trainer recommend this herb to naturally boost testosterone, or is this BS?

I've been reading but It's not sticking... If I'm still trying to lose love handles is Dextrose a good idea post w/o? Right now my post w/o shake is 40g Optimum Whey (2 scoops) in 16 oz with 1 tsp flax. I usually eat a few spoonfulls of brown rice with it. Should I just add a banana? Dextrose?

Could Someone help me out here? For my 8PM meal, If I add a cup of Low fat Cottage cheese: 1 cup, 3g fat, 12g carbs, 28g protein.... as a good sub for 30g Optimum 100% Whey and 1 TSP flax? Is that ok?

Yeah I was going to say look at the amount of sleep you're getting first and foremost. I notice a huge difference on days where I didn't get to bed at a decent time and days where I got enough sleep....

whoops....more like 50-30-20... What I don't understand in their diet in that book (at least in the men's) is how much MILK they have you drinking. Besides being so much sugar, I think you'd be a real phlegm factory!

Ok....so say I want to replace my 9PM shake, which is 16 oz water, 30g (scoop and half) of Whey protein, and 1 TSP flax seed oil with Cottage cheese just to get more real food in my diet. Just 30g of protein worth of regular cottage cheese carries with it a lot of fat and carbs if I do the...

THANKS everybody! As the body fat drops, that just happens on its own. I still have some of that left, as well as those love handles. Just ask questions in the diet forums and they'll help you out with what to eat and when to eat it.... The workout I've been doing was based on a book called...

I also like Asparagus....(except for that erm...sometime nasty side effect) Mashed Sweet Potato Broccoli Green Beans Spinach Mixed Salad

Thanks. The workout is from "The Body Sculpting Bible for Men" which I picked up on a whim at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/157826085X/104-3981558-9927147?vi=glance It's a periodization plan designed by a couple of trainers that mixes light cardio, and 4 days a week of...

Two questions and then I'll shut up. :) Looking at those pics, what bf % would you guess I am? (I still need to buy calipers) I know the last bit of love handles are hard to ditch and take a while, but how long is "a while" if I'm doing everything right? Do you think I should see a six pack...

Well, you guys get a lot of credit. This "Body Sculpting for Men" book has some good workout routines, but the diet is a bit flakey I'm learning...like including Skim milk with every Shake, too much fruit, no distinction between a sweet potato or regular potato, etc.... The workout routine...

Thanks! I'm trying hard with the traps. I've added Heavy dumbell shrugs, upright rows, lateral raises and more pullups into my routine....so hopefully three months from now I'll have some traps.....(and hopefully the abs will be visible...)

I've updated my before and after pics here: http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=17366 Before pics were taken February 11, and after pics taken this morning. I'm pretty tall so I hide that fat pretty well I discovered. Likewise adding mass takes a long time. Still...

Here's before pic number 2:

In Early February I finally decided to change my life after letting myself go for quite a few years. For a skinny guy I'd managed to pack on quite a bit of weight, and muscle tone was virtually non-existent. Since February I've been adhering closely to the periodization workout in the "Body...

Both are planned and the purpose of both are to essentially trick the body into thinking it's not on a diet, yeah?
