So I'm just wondering, I'm thinking of changing my lifting so it's on a three day split. My goal at this point is to maintain upper body strength, maybe add a small amount of size if I could and then to lean out or slightly decrease the size of my legs (obviously all fat loss would be ideal but...

So I'm just trying to figure out what to do for a career.... I graduated with a degree in Physical Education however that's not getting me very far (I don't want to teach it) and have been thinking about trying to become an insurance broker or insurance underwritter. Does anyone work in either...

I recently took some ephedra (combined with caffeine - it was a fat burner I bought at a nutrition store here) and noticed a huge difference in my workouts. I'm just wondering though, how long can you safely take this (period of time) if I was only taking one pill a day? Is it best to take it...

I'm just wondering, how long do you wait after your post workout meal/shake to have your next solid meal? Would one hour be too little? I'm just creating a new program, I work out first thing in the morning and I'm eating 800 calories out of a total of 2000 befor 9 am. Do you think that's okay...

I'm just wondering (and I know the simple answer is to just plan better) but hypothetically speaking if you had two people and they both consumed the same number of calories and grams of macronutrients during the day but one consumed 60 grams of protein with their second last meal and then no...

Hello, I was just reading about the different kinds of squash in a magazine and was wondering if anyone has ever tried spaghetti squash? apparently it's supposed to come out like spaghetti.... Anyway, how did you cook and serve it? Any info would be great!! Berryblis :)

Hey, I'm writing a paper for my exercise physiology class and I came across this article on protein intake for strength athletes. It seems to refute what a lot of people on here think so I thought i'd share it and get your opinions.... (it's sorta long...sorry bout that....) Protein...

Hello, So I just moved into a new apartment and don't have a bench/leg extension machine anymore (I had one at my old house). I workout at home so I have access to dumbells and an exercise ball. What would you guys suggest for a legs routine for me? I was thinking of doing 3 sets of squats...

Hello, I've been trying to put on some muscle weight for the last little while and have been following a 4 day split. I'm doing usually 3 sets per exercise and about 3-4 exercises per muscle with 8-12 reps per exercise (to give you sort of an idea of my workouts). Anyway, I've been making...

Hey, Today in one of my psych classes the prof brought up an interesting question to get people thinking about their lives. She asked, 1) if a doctor (or god, or whatever you want, just someone who knows...I know someone would post, the docs wrong or something...) told you you had one week...

Hello, I'm thinking about participating in the research thing for females on this product that is supposed to be safe for females and help add muscle mass. It's my first time ever using anything (other than glutamine and protein powder) so I just wanted to have you guys maybe check it out and...

Hello, I'm trying to bulk a bit right now and am eating about 2400 calories a day. Usually though, I don't get home from work until around 7:30 so I eat supper at 8:00 (500 calories) and then a snack right before bed at 11:00 (300). So I'm eating about 800 calories between 8 and 11:30 at...

Hello, A guy friend of mine just started a 1-AD cycle in an attempt to put on some mass (he's already pretty hugy, about 5'8" and 215, but he thinks he might have reached his genetic potential and wants a little help...). Anyway, he's taking I believe 300 mg once a day. He was asking me if I...

Hey, I'm about to move from my house into an appartment and do my cardio on my treadmill. I was just wondering if any of you guys live in an apartment and have a treadmill and if so, do your neighbors complain about the noise? (or do you live in an apartment where you know someone has a...

So my parents came home for the weekend (they live away from me and my brother because my mom works in another city, so we live by ourselves in our house) and all weekend long my mom keeps telling me how much my food stinks and gives me all these weird looks when I cook things like egg whites or...

Hello, I'm trying to put on some lean muscle and am looking to put some additional calories in my diet (in the form of carbs - i'm already eating enough protein and healthy fats). I'm thinking adding about 100-200 calories worth of either: -mini wheats cereal, or -these things called corn bran...

Hey, So I was out with my boyfriend tonight and I realized that I'm not into this relationship anymore and we're just not clicking like we used. We aren't fighting or anything like that but I'm just not really interested in seeing him anymore (and my eyes seem to keep wandering around to other...

Hello, I think I've injured myself pretty good doing HIIT running sprints. Right now my right leg hip flexor is killing me. It hurts really bad to run (actually it's tolerable - in pain, but I can take it) when I run but right after I stop I can barely walk and then it pretty much hurts the...
