:FRlol: People are such fucking babies. :FRlol: This is too much!

guinness got it before me. Total caloric intake is the main thing to worry about in terms of gaining or losing weight. The only time playing with ratios would come in handy would be if you're extremely resistant or sensitive to insulin. Even then, with a negative energy balance you won't add any...

You weren't meant to grow? Unless you mean that as in you've reached your genetic potential, it's an odd thing to say. I know of your fucked up stomach and such, but to say you "weren't meant to grow" seems a little misguided. Either way, you've got a lot of dedication, and you put forth with a...

victorbr, you had one good arguement on the diet board months ago, which stated that caloric excess was all that mattered for gaining or losing weight. Despite the fact that so many people opposed you, you stuck by your belief. It was good to see you weren't swayed so easily by the conventional...

Hahaha C&C fags. :FRlol: Really, milk raises estrogen? Bring forth the peer-reviewed evidence! Wait, what's that? You have none? :FRlol: Just shut your fucking mouth, you fucking moron.

Soreness has nothing to do with the effectiveness of a workout. The quickest way to a big chest is through flat bench pressing and dips. Nothing wrong with inclines, but don't compare them to squatting - that's ridiculous.

Flat bench press will stimulate the sternal and clavicular pectoral heads more than decline or incline presses. All that incline bench pressing does is take the emphasis off the sternal head (the "lower" chest). It does not work the "upper" chest (clavicular head) more. For the best development...

I typically get half a gallon of milk in a day. A little more, actually - nine glasses. The only issue I had with this was the bloating it tended to cause, albeit slight. I found a way to remedy that, though. 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar before each of my shakes...

And thus shines through your ignorance. :rolleyes: Get out of here.

I agree that the equation stood out as being nothing short of "bold", but he did say "all things being equal". Obviously different athletes/lifters at different levels (novice, intermediate, advanced), with varied diets and supplements, hours of rest, and even mindstates will make different...

http://www.biologiclabs.com/advice/details.asp?article_id=47 Interesting article, albeit a little flawed. At least, it sounds tha way to me. Still, the general idea of it needs to be grasped by volume trainers everywhere.

Re: Bill Starr's 5 x 5 program... Variation per Madcow2 (thanx) So here it is! K up n Why would you bother trying to down a gallon of milk in a day? EDIT: Read the link. Great, he can down a gallon of milk in fifteen minutes. :p What a wonderful feat. I'm sure the guy knows his stuff, but...

Your arms could have grown due to form. If your grip was closer than his, you could have been working triceps more, placing the stimulus upon them. Also, he could have had arms further developed than you, or your chest could have been ahead of his - there are a lot of variables, you can't just...

Don't listen to anyone who recommends the use of pullovers, flys, or the pec dec. Also, remember that a pump and soreness don't mean a god damn thing...ever! Never gauge a workout by those feelings. You want a bigger chest? Increase your pressing weight, eat excess calories to sustain growth...

I like the sound of your deadlifting style, CCJ. I think I'll give it a shot. Any links with pictures or anything, so I can have a friend check my form?
