    Cutting diet guidance needed

    I think this is all variable. I can't lose an ounce without cardio regardless of how intense my resistance training is. I incorporate Lyle's cardio program with 6 HIIT sprints and then 20 minutes of SS cardio. I feel cardio is part of a total fitness program. I lost 40 pounds when I did a...

    IRON

    There are men's multi's with no iron. Look into that option. 2 MVI's a day is a lot of well....vitamins and minerals. THere is no real benefit with going above the RDA of V and M's. Research of V anf M mega dosages are poor. You may want to use 1/2 a MVI and let your diet take care of the...

    Case for less meals

    I have recently gone down to four meals a day and I can say after a week that my appetite is under better control than with 5. A 250-300 calorie meal just makes me want more to eat. We shall see how this plays out in thsi HST cycle.

    slow digesting protein powder

    I stick with whey due to cost and make poor man's casein with cottage cheese and milk in my post-WO meal. I think that has me more than covered. ;)

    slow digesting protein powder

    In reality what are the digestive rates of casein versus whey? It can't be any greater than say 10-15 minutes and does that make a huge difference?

    Case for less meals

    Hmm, very interesting. I grew up in the frequent feedings = better nitrogern balance, appetite supression, yada, yada. Seems like Lyle's analysis puts this dogma to rest. I seem to have better satiety with 3-4 meals anyways.

    Yohimbe

    I do not tolerate ephedrine very well, plus the evidence that it can cause BPH has further scared me off. What are some good dosing regimines that have worked for you Steve? Thanks again.

    Yohimbe

    My goal is to get to 8% BF my next HST cycle. I have some fat hanging around the waist (10 mm last test one month ago). Would yohimbe be effective at this juncture or stay the course with caffeine and tyrosine? Any comments, stories are welcome. Thanks.

    Case for less meals

    I read a small French study some while back (I will dig it up if someone wants to see it), but it correlated increased feedings and BMI. The more feedings per day the lesser BMI was the gist of the study.

    Macronutrient Absorption

    This is very dependent on the types of protein and carbs you consume, GI index, calories and fats as well. A fast acting protein and carb is good such as whey and maltodextrin or something like raisins. Slower proteins are casein. Both are actually available to tissues rather quickly. Does...

    Case for less meals

    I eat 4-5 times a day but this better serves appetite control for me. I really can't see any difference at the end-of-the-day with 3 feedings versus 5 or more other than subjective appetite control.

    Macronutrient Partitioning

    I feel this is just another way to reduce calories and another attempt to find magic bullets. I do decrease CHO throughout the day b/c it help control my appetite, but no strict form of this.

    Macronutrient Partitioning

    I continue to read "support" research on macronutrient partitioning in regards to PC and PF meals and insulin response blah,blah,blah. Berardi's zealots seem to love this approach. I did some Medline research and came up with NOTHING to support this other than a tertiary study with...

    SD Nutrition

    Protein would be less important after about 2-3 days into the SD. Other than that a modest drop in calories to account for inactivity would be sufficcient. No need to really change your ratios.

    Calorie restriction

    So is this calorie taping then if you ingest the majority of your calories in a small period? i.e. Warrior Diet.

    Calorie restriction

    Very interesting. How would one use this type of scenerio in a HST cycle? High calories AM vs. low PM or vice versa or something else.

    'Eating for Size''article does not give amounts of

    It all goes into the whole food vs. isolated micronutrient argument. (aka chicken or the egg). Is it the whole food and the synergistic effects of food or the isolated micro. Research in many isolated nutrients is poor especially the isolated Vit. E correaltion to heart disease risk.

    I hate dextrose

    100% Grape Juice is close to pure glucose. May want to go with that or as AF stated some other high GI CHO without HFCS.
