I don't know what cut it is, I buy the extra lean variety. I'll calculate the day given above over the weekend, busy today. I figure that the calorie intake is ok when the protein is added. We'll see how it goes for a few weeks.

Thanks jen. When I said mince in meal five I meant minced beef - that is a complete protein source isn't it? Meal one does bother me, as I said I can't eat eggs anymore (allergies seem to be developing all the time) and I'd like to not hit the protein shakes more than I already do. I don't...

Evening... On a typical workout day I will eat: Meal One 100g oats with 320ml whole milk. Tried eating eggs as well, seems they don't agree with me. Explosive consequences. Meal Two - post workout Scoop whey with tablespoon of glucose and 5g creatine all in water. Handful of wine gums whilst...

Water displacement may be able to figure all that out. What you have to assume, without access to that equipment, is that your organ/bone/fluid etc mass is staying roughly the same. So as your scale weight increases monitor your bf% and so an increase in LBM will represent an increase in muscle...

If 5% of you is fat then the rest is Lean Body Mass (LBM) Work out what 95% of 120 is and there you are.

Well, the only competitive rower I ever knew would stroke along at 1.40 splits for 30 minutes at about 18spm and had enormous legs. I'm not saying you are wrong I fully understand that 'bigger is not always better', but rowers definitely do train their legs - squats, squat jumps etc. I rowed a...

Gymnasts are pretty short, but I'd guess they weigh more than 140lbs. Pretty big arms. Atherjen - rowers have massively powerful legs, that is where all the power for the stroke comes from. The back and arms are more a linkage for the power of the leg drive.

HST is pretty popular around here it seems, from a brief search. You think pendulum training is a good foundation to build a routine on? I am thinking of doing the powerlifter pendulum first as I need to improve my basic power.

http://www.t-nation.com/readTopic.do?id=459273 Anybody read it, do it or have thoughts about it? I'm thinking about constructing two programs based on the powerlifting pendulum and the bodybuilding pendulum and doing them back to back with a week's active recovery between. Thoughts? If I do...

Monstar - Where to start with you? No, not really. It's only the internet, I don't take it seriously. The 'other place' is kinda my home, first forum and all that. I'll definitely use this place as a resource and I'm glad you like it here. Might be time to settle down yeah?

Hey Anna, another DF'er here. Good luck pushing yourself.

Hi, Heard about this place through Monstar, he and I were posting on another forum. Was a good place to start off in the strength/muscle building world but time has come to move on. Been training for about two years, but only vaguely 'scientifically' for the last three months. Presently...
