My cousin joined a weighttraining class this semester for his highschool and he asked me yesterday if theres any advice i can give him to help him maximize his gains (not his words.). His ultimate goal was the same goal I had when I started lifting, to lose weight, and put on muscle. Coming from...

I dunno...fat people also sweat alot, I wouldnt call them fit.

I'm just wondering...whats the logic/science behind the thought that a lower set higher rep routine (like this 3x10 y'all are talkin about) will better improve your mass gains, and that a lower rep higher set (5x5) will better improve your strength gains? Also, whats the logic behind "mixing...

I'll be giving blood next week as a part of a school organization. My question is, how much of an effect does loosing that amount of blood have on my workout? Should I just stop lifting for a week (or two), do I only need to wait a couple days, or does it have no effect and I can continue...

Yea I supposed I could take a little bit of protein powder before I eat, but do i need to? Whats the consensus. 1-3hrs right? Is the protein I take in for lunch (today it was a big ol' baja steak burrito, so yea I, and i think most people would prefer steak over a chocate drink) not fast...

Lately my schedule has caused my workouts to fall in right before lunch, now this means that instead of taking a protein shake after my workout, I just eat lunch instead. My question is...Is this ok? My lunches are usually pretty high in proteing/carbs anyway, but will eating instead of drinking...

Bingo, Kazaa (and its lites and +++ versions) grokster are on the fasttrack network, bearshare and limewire are also on the network, and if im not mistaken filled with spyware. WinMx and a couple others run on a different network. Best (and safest) programs out there are newsgroups (just do a...

squats and low rider jeans. :p

The pounds weight system did come from Europe, and if I'm not mistaken, stones are part of that system, alond with hundredweights and tons. :whatever: But yea, we should all convert to the metric system already.

Sounds like you're wasting the AnabolX if your not lifting, and although I don't take creatine, I think I've heard that if you don't "use" the creatine that you take, it can have negative side effects on your body... I would stop taking both of those, nothing harmful with taking the protein...

I used to do my hack squats facing in too, infact, thats how I originally thought they were supposed to be done, but now the gym I go to has the head of the hack squat machine tilted facing towards the ground so I cant to them like that no more

If you eat a cheat (as in a fatty, carb-filled, or sugar-filled) meal before you go to sleep, wouldnt that cheat meal turn into fat? And if you then proceed to run the next morning, even if you did burn off all the fat from the cheat meal, wouldn't you also be burning off muscle as well? Seems...
