Well, ok, you could lose 3 pounds if you got your calories low enough, popped some ephedra and drank a lot of coffee, but that 3 pounds would come at the expense of water/muscle. So when this chick loses 8 pounds in a week, there is no way she lost 8 pounds of pure fat, especially since she's...

Anyone......Bueller.....Bueller.

I've always been of the thought that a human really cannot lose more than 1 - 2 pounds of fat a week. When people say "I lost 15 pounds on diet x," I tell them most of that is water & muscle, and the fight begins. It was my understanding that it takes 3500 calories to mobilize a...

You could also try dumbell squats, duck squats, or (if you're daring) you could try to do front squats by using a 'clean & jerk' movement to get the bar into position. Start with no weight and work your way up. I can only imagine you, out in Japan, in this nautilus gym, doing a clean and...

Living proof here. I was taking a spinning class 2x/week during my fat loss and really not eating very much at all. The fat flew off, but I hit a point (around 11-12%) where I started losing muscle - my weight went down but bf % creeped up! BTW - I'm still going to continue to spin...

I stopped doing the flat bench quite some time ago because of said man boobs. All I do for chest now is Incline DB presses. When I was younger, the BP was the only exercise I knew, so I did it all the time. My lower chest is (IMO) way out of proportion for my body and I am forever trying to...

I selected "involuntary switching (moving away,job change->distance)" because I recently switched from World to the local Y. I moved, but not so far that I was out of the radius of World. Eventhough the Y sux and has a serious lack of equipment, it's about convenience. Driving 5...

Whey/maltodextrin (25/19) before. Whey/maltodextrin (25/19) & a glass of OJ after. Breakfast about 30 - 40 minutes later

Browser crashed the 1st time I tried to post this, so here's the abbreviated version: How many other people out there use Fit Day? Do you think it greatly overestimates your daily burn? I think the Lifestyle calculation may be way off. For example, The HST option #2 formula puts me at 2042...

Their recommendations of the timing of the post workout meal seems overly complex : Does drinking your shake slowly as opposed to quickly really make any kind of difference? Is there any reseach to support this? Also - according to that article, my protein/carb mix is way off . I should be...

So "prior" can be 15 - 20 minutes before - doesn't have to be an hour? I can down my shake on my way out the door, I just can't get up any earlier to increase the time in between my shake and workout. Right now I've got no room for error from the time the alarm goes to down a...

Thanks - except the only time I can workout is first thing in the morning. Its hard enough getting up at 5:30 am to lift - there is no way I'll be able to get up at 4:30 just to eat. Are there any other morning lifers out there? What do you do? (or should I start another thread?)

Ok - I'm sure this site is going to push the Primer/Driver products, but I'm on a budget . . . I have a 'homemade' mixture I am using that provides 376 calories 4 fat 38 carb (maltodextrin) 50 protien (whey). I drink half before my workout and half after. So 188 calories, 2 fat, 19 carb, 25...
