Post padding? :) Seriously though, does nobody have any experience with this?

What kind of goals are you looking for? I think nobody has responded because you are a little vague on what you are looking for. Well, that and it has only been 1 1/2 hrs..LOL Patience Grasshopper. 140lbs and bench 160lbs. Wow How new are you to weightlifting? I weigh 188, and can only...

Anybody here follow this diet? If so, does it work well, or does it do your body more harm than good? (For those that don't know what it is, it is basically a low carb diet. Mon-Friday, 70g or less of Carbs, Sat and sunday Pig out on carbs, like 300-400, or that is the impression I got from...

Found some stuff by Prolab called Androsten Tribulus. :) Kind of looking forward to the up in sex drive. LOL (Have a very low sex drive) An article I read on Think muscle earlier today about Tribulus and Androsten mentioned for the dosage to be effective I would need about 300mg of Androsten...

Reading the article on Ironmagazine.com about Tribulus Terrestris made me think of Pro-hormones. Aren't what they do the same thing as TT? So would it be wise to take only one or the other if that is the case? If yes, which one would be the better choice? For the better gains?

Is Brown rice and Oats good or bad carbs? The only other real source of carbs that I have is my sweet potato.. (and Whole grain bread..but I know thats bad, high in sugars)

As long as it's not my ass! :eek: :D

Ahh, not to be rude, but I did point out that It would not stop me from working out, I was just curious. (I am assuming you are referring to the OP?)

I am serious :) Thai kickboxers have a high mortality rate of shin cancer due to the trauma of kicking trees..lol, seriously. It only seems natural that damaging muscles could cause cancer over many years. Or are muscles somehow protected from this? (the question I am really asking I guess)...

I know this sounds like a dumb or paranoid question, but for the record, it won't stop me from lifting if it does cause cancer. Everything seems to cause cancer anymore, so why bother caring if I get it. Does the microtrauma caused by intense bodybuilding in muscles over years (25-30yrs) make...

How low do you have to be with carb intake to have to carb up? under 80g? under 100?

My only question is that the article mentions Insulin as an Anabolic Hormone. (bottom page 1) Bodybuilders use insulin because it is legal, it stores protien and builds muscle. Would keeping insulin levels low be good for somebody trying to put on maximum muscle?

One other question, sorry to be flooding with questions :) Will cutting my calories be a good thing? Lifting heavy say 3 times a week, with 2-3 cardio days drains me with the diet I am on right now (finishing out this week, starting this new diet next week) and by the end of the day I feel...

Thank you all. Seems I have to learn alot, will read up on sugar. On the flax seed oil, where can I buy that at? Any grocery store in with normal cooking oils? or would I have to head to the health food section?

Oops, thought it seemed kinda wierd to have desert topping in my protein shake..lol. Added in all the veggies, yup :) My biggest source is my two protien drinks with 54g of Carbs. Rice has 25, Oats 25, sweet potato 28 (varies I imagine), apple 21, 5 on the cottage cheese, 30 for the bread...

How is this for a better diet? Meal 1: Protien shake, 1/2 cup of oats 2 tbs of full fat whip cream in shake. Meal 2: Whole can of tuna with 1 tbs mayo, Carrot, Tbs of Peanut butter. Meal 3: 4 eggs, sweet potato. Meal 4: Turkey sandwich with 1 tbs mayo, lettuce and tomato, 2 slices of mozz...

My diet is up in the air ATM, but I think I am going to go with what W8lifter suggested in this thread: (or very similar) http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6164 I am also going to go from a 5 day split to a 3 day and see how that goes. My goals.. hmm, I would say I...

Ugh, you trying to scar me for life on the WL one? Makes me hesitant to squat anything.

I would say A$$, but am more of a Leg or Ab person. A woman with a washboard stomach or a 6/8 pack is beyond sexy. :D

Like I have stated before, I am pretty new to WL. I of course want to get gains safely, so this brings up a (IMO) good question. When is the best time to start using all kinds of suppliments? I Drink a protien drink after workout, and will be starting to take 2 of them a day to meet my protien...
