    Protein and calories

    Got it, I'll give that a bash. It's a bit of relief actually as I'm struggling to cram down that much protein. Thanks for the help !

    Protein and calories

    Hi All, I’m having some problems reconciling all the info about diet. The main problem at the moment is the whole 1g/pound protein vs. keeping protein intake at 15% of calories. If I take the recommended gram / pound (200g of protein in my case) then my daily calorie intake needs to be over 5300...

    What happens we loose muscle mass ?

    I know the answer to this is probably more complicated than I could handle, and I don't even have the physiology vocabulary to articulate my question properly so I hope you can read between the lines, but ..... What are we actually loosing when our LBM / muscle mass goes down and what happens to...

    Where'd you get your username?

    A Radio Station, was running a competition to find contestants who could come up with words that were not found in any English Dictionary yet could still use these words in a sentence that would make logical sense; the prize being a return trip for two to Bali for a week. The DJ, Sam, had many...

    post - DOMS soreness

    Hi Chupacabra, Right, I was stiff and sore and could barely walk for 3 days The burning lasted a few days after the stiff/soreness went away, which is why I'm a little concerned I've done some damage to something. I got an unexpected invite to go fishing so I haven't been back for 8 days now...

    post - DOMS soreness

    With what the the search engine came up with I've realized why DOMS is four lettered word and I'm almost too scared to use it in a post, but I have a real concern. Long story short, went back after 2 months, started out way too optomistic !! I have never experienced DOMS or muscle swelling and...

    Can't wake up in the morning

    Could it pehaps be the change in your sleeping environment (new flat etc.) that is affecting the quality of your sleep ? Not all 8 hours of sleep are equal.

    Olive Oil

    Great, thanks for the replies By the sounds of it,the bottles we buy don't usually last long enough for the clear glass to be a problem, all though buying bulk sounds like a great plan. Thanks for the reassurance on the frying, using low heat is one fact that did stick in the mind

    Sleep Reduction with ALCAR + l-theanine

    Sorry, it ended up a bit of a ramble rather than a question after I deleted the actual question when I edited. I'm just going to order the ALCAR and L-theanine powders and give it a go. May have more specific Q's then, but the Avant discussion should probably take care of those too. Thanks...

    Sleep Reduction with ALCAR + l-theanine

    Thanks Virtualcyber, Quick question, must it be specifically ALCAR or is L-Carnitine acceptable ? Edit : Scrap that, did the search on Avant. I guess the question is how much to up the dosage of L-Carnitine as opposed to 700mg of ALCAR. I've managed to track down L-Carnitine in 600mg caps...

    REALLY basic Newb question..

    Thanks, I'm still new enough to this game that I think your comments will apply. Having trained infrequently for many years, I started my first serious training in Decemeber but only got 8 weeks into it when I injured my back (playing golf not training) and haven't been back since. I guess...

    REALLY basic Newb question..

    Hi all, Ragz if you don't mind I'd like to add a question to your thread since I'm in the same boat. I've been reading every board and thread that's mentioned HST and am about to start. I think though that I've missed something along the way. Do I ignore the fact that after 5 sessions on 15s my...
