I personally think its a great option for someone who is on a lower carb diet and needs to get a good amount of protein in for the day...i also agree that is is processed..but you just have to see how your body reacts to it....i personally love it..

HAHAHA cute!!! :)

Hey I had that problem once as well..however, I find that I got that because I was pushing more with the front of my foot....try pressing down more on the heel and back end and push that way...that seemed to solve my problem...hope this helps and best of luck

Hey Congrats! I am a twin too!!! Its a great thing...you always have a friend :)

I was a gymnast since I was a little girl and stopped about 3 years ago...after seeing many olympians and watching that guy, it is very apparent that he has VERY good fast twitch muscles....besides timing and keeping what needs to be tight, his fast twitch muscles in his legs and calves are...

I live with 2 roomates who have cookies, candy apples, ice cream,..you name it they have it...I literally don't crave any of that..so they can eat it in front of me..and it doesn't bother me....

I'm doing the Hydrostatic Weighing Tank this coming Tuesday for the first time....a bit nervous,lol

pintoca...so do you think I should not take the apple juice? If so, do you think I should take the 1 scoop of whey with dextrose...? Also..how much dextrose? I was taking in 28 carbs and 29 sugars before....

Sometimes when I don't want to eat, I just know I have to and I just eat the food even if it takes me an hour to do it...I just keep thinking that I need to feed the muscles...I keep trying to remember that food isn't supposed to be enjoyable its only a tool.....hope you feel better!

for my post workout I take 1 scoop of whey with 8oz of apple juice...hope this helps

I take 1 scoop of whey protein and 8oz of apple juice.....

Before I began to eat right..I always thought Fat Free was the key!( that was my saying)..whoa was I wrong...I must have been walking around with so many chemicals in me...kinda scary with all that processed crap

I only deadlift 145 ( that's counting the bar) ..and I have trouble on the last couple of reps to get the weight up...what can I do to strengthen my grip as I am having trouble getting those last reps in as my grip slips....?

The only time I use smith machines is for upright rows or lunges..other than that I don't use them..... I did however use it to get the motion of a squat... but when I squat I use the free weights...(much better)

Absolutley! I love the chocolate mint, and the chocolate is really good too...if you have a sweeter tooth..go with the strawberry..they even have a bananna and sometimes I do half choc and half bannana...really easy to mix..highly recommend it :)
