    Vitamin World Sale

    So, on Monday and Wednesday, Vitamin World is having a big sale. I'm going to stock up on whatever I should get, but any ideas of what I could get if I find it cheap? I'm getting whey, can't get creatine, and I was thinking of getting green tea pills. Anybody have any experience with them? I...

    Nutrition for Fasting

    IMO, I would wait until fasting is over before starting HST, if you want to get the best of it. Just eat as much clean food as you can without getting sick in the morning, and then eat every hour or 2 at night. OR, you could just leave your job for a month, sleep during the day, and eat and...

    Modified WSB

    Why don't you just combine repetition days with ME/DE days? You should have accessory work with the ME and DE days also. There's not really much at all for hamstrings and triceps. I would say just do regular Westside 4x a week, and make ME days heavy accessory days, and DE days light...

    Is canned tuna safe?

    Well not very low, but low. From here : "Consumption advice is unnecessary for the top 10 seafood species, making up about 80 percent of the seafood market--canned tuna, shrimp, pollock, salmon, cod, catfish, clams, flatfish, crabs, and scallops. This is because the methyl mercury levels...

    Is canned tuna safe?

    I remember thinking about this topic a few weeks ago, so I went to the FDA site. I found and article (I'll find it again if you like), that stated unless you're a hardcore shark eater, you most likely won't see any problems eating tuna. Regular canned tuna has a very low PPM in mercury, and I...

    HST/HSN apparel

    Yay...all three of my shaker bottles leak. I would buy some cool looking HST tee shirts, and I always wear hoodies, so HST hoodies would be cool. [shoulder shrug]Maybe even HST benching shirts?[/shoulder shrug]. That might not really fit though, maybe if you came up with some scientifical SST...

    Protein deprivation and muscle building

    Sounds like somebody spent some cash on the Optimum Anabolics program (www.grow-muscle-now.com)...that's the "big secret" behind that program, protein cycling. You drop protein to 30g a day consumed just post workout, and you do this for 3 weeks, then you consume tons of protein for 3...

    Valerian

    I guess I'll have to train myself then. Well I tried valerian last night about 1 hr. before I went to bed. Well just swallowing the pill left a horrible aftertaste which with tons of milk went away. Went to bed about 11:30, then got a stomach ache and tasted something acidic in the back of my...

    School, Work, My Diet, & LBM.

    My job just plain blows (cashing and pushing carts at an always busy grocery store. Breaks suck, starting wage sucks, raises really suck, there's a couple fine young ladies there, but the 70 year olds are the one's that want to be your friend (unfortunately). But hey, what else can you find at...

    Valerian

    When I get to sleep I'm totally fine, I can sleep 10 hours if I'm tired. The problem is just getting to sleep, I think about things way too much and can't stop thinking, so it keeps me up. If this doesn't work, I've heard really good things about ALCAR.

    Valerian

    First off has anybody here used it? What were your experiences? I have trouble getting to sleep, and heard that valerian could help solve my problem. So I picked up a bottle of it before reading about it a lot. I came across this at a website: "Long term use can cause: Headaches...

    Funny Diet Stuff

    lol, he must have wasted a lot of time on that. I actually read something similar to that, but it was for real. My mom had a Woman's Day magazine or something like that, and the title was like "when you're about to grab for that piece of junk food, grab these instead!". Here is the...

    What do you guys eat your olive oil with? I tried it by the spoonful and almost puked. Will it go in anything else easily besides salad or anything that has to be cooked?

    Westside Help Please!!!

    Ok, thanks. So then I'll work up to a 3RM in all ME exercises for 3 weeks, then when I change up exercises, I"ll switch to a 1RM. And after 4-5 weeks, I'll deload for a week and pick up where I left off (ME wise).

    Westside Help Please!!!

    I'm sorry, I don't really understand what you mean when you say "over time". It was to my understanding that I would want to start with working to up to a 3RM since I'm a beginner PL'er, and then over time make a transition to working up to a 1RM. Maybe I have things reversed.
