That is a large red beef patty that is 90% lean. I've looked at the others that are 80% and 85% and they are much worse... Unless I'm just missing something here... Has anyone else out there been able to find leaner red meat?

Like I was saying in the other thread of yours, you might want to get a 5lbs tub of protein... That way, you can start getting your protein very easily... eventually you'll want to move into whole foods as [xeno]Julios suggested - sometimes people have a hard time doing whole foods vs...

WoooHooo........ I'm hoping to start strength by next fall - Great job Bryan - thanks for the new board!!!!

I am some what similar to you in the sense that anxiety has been a major issue that restricts me in the weight room. I too have never trained for strength and as a result am not nearly as strong as I know I could be. I wouldn't be shocked if your anxiety is playing a major part in burning you...

I understand that they need to be ground for proper digestion... But it sounds like chewing is also just as acceptable? Or is grinding perferable?

I imagine you've already tried this, but what about soy milk or other subs? You can get soy milk in powder form too for bulk...

I plan to use them this cycle once I hit my 5's. Bascially the last set of the exercise is a drop set. I've heard they are best during 5s (four weeks) but others as you see have sucess doing them straight thru... I dont' plan to fail, only get that "unbearable burn" =)

Why do some bottles recommend "three times a day, preferably after a meal" ?

I've heard of some guys that dark colorer the muscle lines to give a greater appearance of definition... Then again that could get kinda messy with your face ;-)

Let's talk about this a bit more - Skittles candy... I heard that some people on TKD get their 50grams of carbs from Sweet Tarts and/or Skittles. I have a workout later today in which I was planning on "Skittling up" about a half hour before the workout. The package says about 240...

Ah, according to looksmart: Sounds like you already have the powder - have you tried adding the powder to one of your shakes?

Were you eating the powder raw??

I wouldn't stop. If you wanted to lower it you could go down to 0.8g per pound of body weight, MAYBE lower (we'll see what other say). But you definately don't want to stop.

Perhaps this is common knowledge... But are there any known longterm effects from creatine - good or bad? I've never used this stuff before. The only thing I've put in my body is normal food and drinks (including protein shakes). Although I still have a ways to cut I'd be interested in both...

sure give it a shot and let us know how it works! From the lack of responses, it sounds like you'll be educating a few of us =)

Can't you put them in the blender to grind them up? I'd be interested to know as I have a small bag around here as well...

OK I made under 30 grams yesterday - wow that was hard. My ketostick read that I had a trace of ketones last night... Now as I look to the future I'm confused with my options. Lars, you gave me a pretty good idea of what you ate, but did you have any other options? Anyone else? What did you...

So you're saying you don't think you could achieve that look with simply loosing body fat? Also, if you are taking creatine that may be hindering you from getting that look...

ok I *think* I just have one more question..... When counting carbs, should I look at total carbs or net carbs? I'm confused as I see some 'low carb' products boast "only 3 net carbs" but when I read the label there's like 20g+. Are net carbs only for Atkins or can I use them in...

Fuzzy or not, thanks for the reply Lars =) I kind of expected an answer like that anyway since even some aspects of HST are individually based... Heh, waaay below 100g?? Yeah, according to my reading it needs to be like 20-30grams - that's insane!! Still, I think I will attempt TKD. I read...
