    Driver for rest days?

    It's pretty much up to you . Personally, I use generic whey in place of Primer and only take Driver after my lifting - 3 days a week. That's becuase I'm doing this building on a budget and my wife doesn't give me a good allowance ;-) If you can afford to use both products every day, I'd say...

    Cutting During SD.

    I've tried cutting on several SDs, and in my personal experience I recommend the SD to stay as a SD. In other words, don't do anything, don't go below maintenance calories. I violated both principles on one sd/cutting cycle and lost considerable weight - apparently muscle. Yet another cutting...

    Fruit Juices

    Okay, I know this is probalby a newb question, but exactly how does the sugar make you fat? If the calories all fit in I don't see how it could matter... If I have a box drink of 100% cran/raspberry juice it has 26g of carbs - 22 are sugar... Should this be avoided? Couldn't it be used as...

    Impotency of old creatine?

    That's just the begining... Creatine AND protein are donated as I have seen both. Their reasoning for donating, I believe, is the same as any food donation - it's about to expire and they don't want to waste it by throwing it away. Everything I have seen go thru is either about to expire or...

    The complete guide to pre/pos/pos-pos nutrition

    I'll get it started, more later? "Pre workout shake containin 25-30 grams of carbs..." From: FAQ: Diet and Nutrition Fast absorbing recommended? Dextrose (glucose) or maltodextrin? Aim for less than an hour before workout? "Pre workout shake containin ... 15 grams of...

    Impotency of old creatine?

    lol well that would explain a lot... I've been using some creatine that was discarded to a food bank - haven't noticed any real results. I guess I never looked into becuase I remember reading a thread that said "don't worry about the experation..." heh, guess they ment there were...

    Caffeine and L-Tyrosine

    I think this is the post he was refering to from the FAQ: Diet and Nutrition heh, I tried that for about a week, but didn't use the tryosine... That was during my 22% to 12% BF/2 month drop... While it was only a week (thus I can't give it any credit), at least I learned what it felt like =)...

    cardio for bulk and cut

    Well I wish I could say that it was without any muscle loss, but I'd be lying... Darn, I tried to dig up my old "Fat Inferno" thread that I tracked during that period. You can always look at my Dec '03 Fitday journal and just click forward thru the days to see my calories, body fat...

    cardio for bulk and cut

    For some reason, this is a new concept to me =) ...Perhaps I have always held to the traditional "bulking and cardio are opposite goals" I would be interested in more specifics on this topic! I know Bryan suggests doing 20-40 minutes of brisk walking on off days during a bulk, but...

    When to whey?

    Yes... You don't want your body to have a shortage of protein during the SD phase. Since you cannot store protein, a continual flow is optimal... And if your body does run out of protein? It's starts salivating over those juicy muscles for a new source!! =o

    Anyone ever try HDT brand protein supps?

    Actually it isn't. Or at least in my opinoin: 1) Taste is gross (strawberry) 2) Doesn't mix well - very lumpy 3) Even with the extra pound you only get 77 servings... ...Now I know why so many people replied to this thread =) ...Think next time I"ll try out that allthewhey.com site!

    Free meal planning software or website?

    Yes, fit day is great for tracking... and I even attempt to use it for planning. But what I need is some software or a website that can spit out meal plans - so I don't have to waste so much time shaping my meals. Seriously, I take like 10-20+ minutes a day to plan the food for the next day...

    Protein

    .8-1.2 grams per pound of body weight - usually end up around 150g ...that's when bulking During SD I strive more for the 1.0 g per pound...

    Falling asleep after eating

    5 1/2 hours? How old are you? I know everyone is different and age could play a role, but man, unless I get 7-8 hours regularly I sound like you =P I'd be interested to hear what others say too since sleep is big w/my routine... Do you sleep on a regular schedule? even on the weekends? From...

    The fat in protein bars

    Personally I try to stay away from bars. I just don't find them very healthy. If I want a protein snack that doesn't need to be refridgerated I'll go for some jerky. Sure 4g doesn't sound like that much, but its around 20% of your sat fat requirments for a 2000kcal diet. Keep in mind this is...

    Fish oil sups and herbs

    Hi all, I guess this is kinda a two part question: 1) First, where do you guys purchase your fish oil supplements? I'd like to know that I'm getting a good quality (filtered, no mercury, etc) but at the same time can't sell for any more arms and legs... I'm in the US, so can any of you...

    Partitioning of calories among fat, carbs, etc.?

    I have wondered about this topic for sometime as well. Lyle and Bryan talk quite a bit about it in the FAQ. I don't have time to read all of it tonight and discuss it but here's one thing they say: Input?
