Thanks for the Karma Guys! Glad to be of some assistance.

Missy, It sounds like you are suffering from low self esteem. You ask many many questions on this board and you seem almost desperate for answers. You need to just be patient and keep trying new things. I gaurantee if you keep with it and keep trying and changing things while monitoring...

I think you are way over-simplifying things here. So if a calorie is just a calorie then one could eat say a jumbo bag of M&M's everyday instead of 3 balanced meals including meat, veggies, fruit, grains etc. The most obvious problem here is the lack of nutrients involved when one is eating...

Do HIIT training in the morning on an empty stomach. This will maximize your results. Do not eat for 1 hour following your HIIT training. Your blood sugar will be very low so your body will be using energy from it's fat stores. I recommend building up to 10-15 100 meter sprints. Be sure to...

Yeah, so why do champion marathoners at the Olympic level have virtually no muscle in their upper bodies then? They are supposed to have great genetics right? We are not talking about athletic ability here were are talking about 2 different training methods, and clearly long duration low...

Massive Eating I am currently on the massive eating diet righ now. So far I have gained 16 lbs in 10 weeks. i have put on some fat but not much really. I have gained a little over an inch in my waist line and lost some definition in my abs, but I have never done a bulking diet where I...

I agree with Cuts. The next time you are watching the Olympics look at the sprinters then look at the marathoners. Then pick the body type you want, and your aerobic questions are answered!

Well, to give you a little longer answer than Diamond, I think the diet is the most important thing. Try doing a CKD type diet with cardio in the mornings before you eat anything. Don't go nuts on the cardio though 20 minutes is plenty, if you are doing HIIT training 10-15 minutes is plenty...

I am using the 40/30/30 c/p/f. At 4300 calories a day i still get around 310 grams of protein a day and I weight 182 right now. I have gained 12 pounds so far and very little fat. If you eat some good fats it is also a lot easier to make your calories each day. Like 3 oz of mixed nuts...

My experience has been if I do too much cardio I lose a lot of muscular size and strength. I know they say this is a myth but for me it is a fact. You might want to try HIIT training as outlined in Bill Phillips Body For Life... DO some sprinting instead of all that long distance work. If...

How come I can't get to any of your diet articles anymore? When I click on the articles link it takes me back to the main page. I need to get the details on the CKD diet. Thanks!

I thought fructose was low GI, so how does that equal an insulin spike? I think thats crap. Fruit is good for you regardless, lots of vitamins and minerals. Eat up!

Athlete, In regards to combining your fats and carbs i have read on this board and on the Testosterone Magazine site that combining fats and carbs will result in accelerated fat gain. Anybody else have opinions on this subject? It would be real nice if you could combine them and get the...

Congrats on making weight. Wish I had you kind of willpower!

I agree with you HarmsWayBC. I think my protein levels are fine. If anything I think I need to add more veggies and fruits to my diet. I guess my main concern is total calorie intake. I think I'll stay at 4100 unitl the gains stop. As long as I get at least 1.5 lbs a week gain I am...
