    Help! I'm not growing!

    I'm suggesting 3500 as shock therapy for your system, Skinny. Look at is this way: If we assume your maintenance is 2400 calories per day (we are assuming this because it is what you are eating and you are not gaining or losing, right?) then 3500 would be 1100 calories extra per day. If you...

    Try shooting for 3500 calories per day for 2 cycles and see what happens.

    best "handle/grip" for tricep pulldowns?

    I like the ropes because you can either keep the heel side of your hand down all the way to the full contraction, or you can rotate your wrists and turn your palms down. I'm not sure that really develops the tricep in any different fashion (probably not) but it does feel a little different and...

    Squats are Evil

    I'd just like to get this off my chest ... I hate squats. They make my thighs burn like crazy. They cause amazing sounds to come out of me towards the end of a set even with ridiculously light weights. Once I can peel myself out from the squat rack they make me waddle like a ruptured duck...

    Coffee

    Louno, do you get sleepy after a meal regardless of what you have to eat? I've found that a high carb meal can make me drowsy, but a pure protein meal (as long as it isn't turkey) doesn't impact me as much.

    Inclined bench press vs regular b press

    I've found Gironda's neck press to be a good "version" of doing bench presses. A relatively close grip (about shoulder width) and forcing your elbows out while lowering to the neck limits the amount of weight you can use, but it greatly increases the stretch. I can actually feel the...

    Lifespan, Caloric Intake, and Weight on the frame

    Just to clarify, Arnold did NOT have a bypass operation. He had an operation to repair a defective valve in his heart, which was congenital. It had nothing to do with bodyweight, steriods, or anything else relating to bodybuilding. No arterial problems that I am aware of, and he is not on any...

    Bryan - What to drink?

    You could drink decaff coffee...? I was under the impression that it was the acids in coffee that created the problem, not the caffeine. Is coffee OK as far as you are concerned?

    Bryan - What to drink?

    Green tea screws with your androgen receptors. Coffee screws with your insulin sensitivity. Is there any hot beverage besides water that you can safely drink regularly?

    Skipping the 15s

    I do them because I like to challenge myself, and I find them difficult! I remember how I breezed thru the very first 15s workout I ever did and I really thought they were a waste of time. By the time I had completed just the first week of them I was amazed at how hard I was working. The...

    HS:N

    I'll take a stab at a couple of the questions, Steini. I assume Bryan meant 2 whole eggs and 4 that are just the whites. Oz does stand for "ounce", which is pretty close to 28 grams. 28.35 to be exact. A cup can also be thought of as 8 oz., so you are looking at about 226.8 grams of...

    Primer vs. Driver

    My Primer mixes very easily, even without a blender. Just stir it into some water and it blends up well. My Driver, on the other hand, stays gritty and clumpy regardless of what I do including using a blender. Is this a normal difference between the two products, or do I just maybe have an...

    Coenzyme Q10

    Anybody got any experience or opinions on Coenzyme Q10? Does it accomplish anything at all, or is it just marketing hype? Thanks!

    Different types of anti-estrogens

    "Nolvadex. It's the best for post cycle, easy as hell to get too, and not expensive at all." Agreed, but does a non-prescription, over the counter anti-estrogen product exist that really works?
