Good, good. But just don't expect miracles.
About the acidity, I read it in an article by Elzi Volks I believe.
I've read those articles, i musta missed that part. Hmmm...
Also, i just found the article I couldn't find before, which spoke against Ephedrin, as it lowers norepinephrine. It was by you actually, called "cardio program for stubborn fat" a couple weeks ago.
Yeah, now i'm with ya. You threw me off a little with the way you worded it earlier.
Ephedrine is still good, but it's just not recommended for Lyle's program.
Should I start doing that on my non-lifting days? I haven't been doing any cardio lately, but I guess I should, to speed things up more?
how long have you been dieting for now?
If longer than 10-12 weeks 'proper' dieting, then sure, add in some cardio.
If fatloss has halted, and your cals are already tinkering on the 'too low' region, then sure give it a go.
I did the cardio as you explained it today, 10 min intervalls, followed by 30 min mod. high intensity. How often do you recommend, is it too much to do it on all my off days? I lift 3 x per week right now with minimum rest between sets (30 sec), 12-15 reps per set. Any recommendation, TCD?
I also lft thrice weekly, and do the program about 3-4 times a week. You'll notice from the NHE experience thread, that i eat a meal at about 1-1:30pm and then don't eat again until i've done my cardio at around 5-7pm, making it as close to 'morning cardio' as i'm gonna get without it being morning. Just an idea for sometime down the line if you feel it's necessary.
Also, the rest times between sets aren't always necessary. Iw ait upwards of 3-5 minutes between my heaviest sets. Only occassionally will i do drop sets and such. But it's really up to you.
