    DO U GUYS TAKE GLUTAMINE?

    I felt like resurrecting this thread with a question... Glutamine ingested is wasted on your GI tract, but on one container, the recommendation was to absorb it under your tongue. I'm sure this would taste nasty, but could this get it into your bloodstream where it could have some sort of...

    cant get hsn

    I wouldn't worry that much about it. I don't use HSN products (I would like to, but I can't really afford it between school and food and rent) and I have seen great results using HST. I just use whatever decent quality whey (or soy) is available when I need to buy protein. Things to watch on...

    I've actually lost a few. 2 weeks ago I decided to eat clean and I haven't let up except for christmas dinner :)

    Energy drinks

    My personal favorite is Rockstar Energy Drink. Comes in a 16oz can for slightly more than an 8oz Red Bull. Tastes a lot better than Red Bull as well. Great for hangovers, though if I drink the whole 16 ounces at once, I'm not hungry for like 8 hours. This has been reported by a 350lb buddy of...

    what gym do you belong to?

    I just realize when I said that DBs come in increments of 2.5 up to 45lb, it sounded like the biggest DBs were 45lbs. They then come in increments of 5lbs up to 100lbs and then 10lbs in after that. Heh, all this just because I wanted to say how I like the small increment :D Stupid me, I also...

    big arms

    I find inclined hammer curls to be the best for pure size. I have always loved concentration curls though for shape.

    Use Suppliments?

    Soy Isolate is great stuff. I've used it for months and I haven't noticed any estrogenic effects. The rumor that soy isolate causes that come from the fact that there are a lot of phytoestrogens (plant estrogen) present in soy foods. However, these are not present in soy isolate. Furthermore...

    Recommending creatine?

    I buy mine at Costco because I'm in Canada. Shiiping to Canada is more expensive, plus I get dinged for brokerage fees, which can be more than $30.

    what gym do you belong to?

    I go to my University gym. It's new and pretty dang big. Only thing is there's no ab machines, but that's not a big deal. Dumbells come in increments of 2.5 up to 45lbs, and there's plenty of benches.

    Where to buy best tasting least expensive protien?

    I learned about brokerage fees when I ordered from proteinfactory.com. The FedEX guy showed up at my door and rold me that I had to give him $32, because when they brought it accross the border, that's what the broker charged them. Although it was still a better deal than anything I could get...

    Where'd you get your username?

    Mine is a sort of inside joke amongst my friends and I. When we were younger, we sort of developed our own slang, based on stupid things that were said. If something is cool, it's insane, so I guess that makes me a cool guy

    Too many sets?

    Flex, No I've never really done that. I'm thinking of adding flat bench back to my routine next cycle along with flys, which I've always seen good results from in the past. I want flat bench because it allows me to do heavier weight than with incline, which will earn me better strength gains...

    Impatient biceps...

    How many sets do you do on your biceps? I have gotten great results (+6/8" in the past 7 weeks) on only 2 sets. I alternate between Preachers, Inclined Hammers and DB curls (I do two sets of each, switching exercises every workout).

    Does soy lower testosterone signinficantly?

    http://timinvermont.com/soyvswhy.htm "Daidzein is a key isoflavone found in soy that acts as a potent phyto-estrogen. It is structurally a very weak "pseudo-estrogen" (about 1000 times weaker than the body's primary estrogen estradiol). This is good news to the bodybuilder because...

    Too many sets?

    With flat bench, I typically feel it in my front delts mor than my chest.

    Too many sets?

    Thanks for the replies guys. Jake, I'm thinking of getting rid of flat bench and doubling up on dips; al;though I want to continue DB Pullovers, because I have heard from a few sources that if performed at my age (19), they can expand the ribcage. Micmic, I may do pec-dec next cycle, but I...
