Generally squats are better than deads, but it also depends how advanced a lifter you are, and your personal biomechanics - some people are just better at one or the other because of the way they're built. My dead is still better than my squat, although the gap is closing. In fact - my gap's...

Oh, OK. Phew ... I was thinking maybe the whole thing had been dismantled or something. It's never been down so long. Thanks :)

Seems my browser can't find that page - I just get a blank - been like this 3 or 4 days ... Is the site down?

Cool! Let me know how you progress. lol :) You might wanna add in some chocolate protein shakes just to make sure you have a good balance of chocolate sources.

Heya Anthrax - been around - but I'm a student now, so haven't been posting much. And I post more at chemicalmuscle/strongchick nowadays. But I regularly read your posts :) I find chocolate cookies, lots of sleep and lots of water work well for flu :)

Yeah, most of the research on it says it's supposed to do that. I THINK it might be one of the ingredients in Neurogenex. But is a common ingredient in nootropics anyway. Maybe you ned to take it for longer. Or maybe you need to increase your choline and inositol intake while on it ... Go...

There's this one girl at my gym - she has that sort of solid fat look - you know - big girl, clearly overweight, but she still looks pretty and cute - it kinda suits her. Anyway - for a year now, I've watched her practically kill herself on the stupid circuit, every time I'm there, she's...

Celestial Seasonings cinnamon and apple is yummy. And all their others too, actually.

No muscle = zero chance of ever achieving an "athletic look". If you want an athletic look, do athletics. "This will chizzle the body to the way it was designed to be, LEAN!!!" This is crap - the human body is not designed to be lean. Our bodies have adapted evolutionarily over millenia to...

Ah, well, nice to know I'm not the only member of the wrinkles AND zits club! I'm 31, I get them around my chin and central forehead. I have no clue what they're from, because whether I eat clean or not it makes no difference. They just get worse around my period. I thought they were from the...

Not eating before weight training and after fasting for 7 hours is not a good idea at all. I'd say that'd give you a pretty UNintense workout. In fact, if I don't have carbs and protein before training (an hour or so before) I may as well not go. No point. Skip the flax immediately...

Yeah, PBR - I hear you on the addiction thing - I've had my own issues with that - thank god I'm now only addicted to training and studying :) I've never tried GHB myself, actually - just heard folks around the boards talking about it. I wouldn't normally recommend mind-altering substances :)...

Ceebs - those visual disturbances you and/or MS mentioned a while ago .... what sort of thing was happening? I wear glasses most of the time - I've had some allergy problems with contacts lately, so have had to quit them - but I'm having this thing whereby I'm seeing double - well, sort of...

Careful ... once you start you can't stop ...
