I think it's rather precious how everyone buys into the whole 'oh ANYTHING you can buy at the grocery's bad for you, you really need the little chemical carb we're selling' I'm having a banana, an apple and a spoonfull of honey on my post workout protein shake for years and I've not noticed any...

I've been bulking very slowly for the past 9 months and I've gained 12 pounds. My waist is still the same size though so I was wondering, is that good indication that fat gain has been minimal and my diet is on the right track?

First time I did them last week, my hams were sore for 4-5 days, I had to skip hams on legs day. This week, my hams are ok but my back is very sore. I'm sure it's because of deads because it never used to be sore whatever I tried. I started very light then went up to around 90lbs on a small...

OK, I decided to add deads on my back day. Now, my whole back is sore, lower back, lats and even a bit of my traps. Is this normal or am I not doing them in good form?

So what? We're talking about two completely illiterate people who couldn't even complete a sentence in English, juiced extensively and were probably sponsored by sup. comps. I can't believe there's no scientific data whatsoever, yet eveyone's quite happy to blindly accept it. I'm sorry, I can't...

1-1,5 grams per kgr. of lean mass is a more logical amount. Cure-if you are eating maintenance level calories, any macronutrient will do. Assuming you get sufficient protein, the amount of which has not been backed up from anyone pro-mega protein intake in this thread so far, anything will do...

I don't think body builders back then consumed such huge amounts of protein. Not nearly as much. They were having chicken and egg whites etc. everyday but I can't believe they consumed 400-500gr of protein a day, still there were lots of big old skool BBs.

Thanks for your suggestion, however it doesn't answer my question. Until someone does, the whole huge protein intake will remain as proven for me as 'I gained 40 lbs. of pure muscle using Cell tech in a week'

Can someone point me to a study that proves that 'the bigger the protein intake of a body builder, the better results in muscle building'?. Surely, body builders need a better and more balanced diet than coach potatoes, hoewever, someone not lifting can very well live with minimal protein...

I was wondering, exactly why if someone doesn't consume 1,5-2,0 grams/lb. of protein, protein every two hours etc. will lose muscle. If the body is never on catabolic state by eating any macronutrient, surely the body will not switch to protein for energy. Also, since the body can build only...

Missyd, you are by far the most annoying poster in these forums. You are asking the same question again and again and again and again. Snap out of it. You won't get abs in two weeks. People have told you what to do, stick with it and leave us alone. Geez!

I had the same problem a couple of months ago. Big chest, Bics/Trics and Quads, lagging shoulders, back & hams. I tried the general concensus here i.e don't work out a body part more than once a week, don't do more than 8 sets in total etc. and it didn't work at all for months. So this is the...

Is cardio, e.g threadmill a good butt work out? Does it stress the glutes enough to *tone* them? Also, I've seen this guy doing cardio holding low weight dumbells, what would the benefit of that be?

The general consensus of the board is that the loading phase is a rip-off from producers to make more money. It's widely believed that *loading* is a waste and you should just consume 5gr of creatine mixed with juice immidiately after working out.

Great:) Then I'll be sweating my bum on the threadmill with all the girls starting tomorrow:D Thanks for the tips!:)
