    Hoodia Gordonii - Appetite Suppressant - P57

    Lars now that you say it, I think you are right about that. However it seems as if the cactus itself is readily available. JWJ

    Hoodia Gordonii - Appetite Suppressant - P57

    I mean trust that it is real Hoodia. I have often heard of supplements not having in them what is claimed. Hoodia has the added trouble of only having a small and limited supply. Plus the fact I can't find any supplement co. I consider reliable that sells it, like Twinlab, Solgar, Standard...

    Hoodia Gordonii - Appetite Suppressant - P57

    <span style='color:black'>I saw this about 2 months ago and have been doing a little research on it. It looks amazing! Hoodia Gordonii is a cactus that grows in the Kalahari desert, P57 is the active appetite reducing compound. I can't find the original study that was done to prove a 1000...

    Can anyone else relate to any of this!

    Yah - We are all unique. I guess it shows once again there are few black and white things, but lots of gray. Thanks for doing the search and posting that KP. So Lyle says that leptin is essentially not affected by the way the deficit is created. If Lyle says it I believe him. But is leptin...

    Can anyone else relate to any of this!

    I don't know about the cortisol issues. However is there evidence the body looks at total energy balance, as opposed to exercise/diet calories in/out? My thought was it may be easier to fool the body with exercise, not that that thought was based on anything but personal experience. It is far...

    Can anyone else relate to any of this!

    Wow! Thanks for posting this. I follow a modified CKD diet (3 weeks between refeeds), as the keto part progresses these symptoms become more and more pronounced. For about 3-4 days after the refeed I am OK, but then I start displaying these symptoms more and more as time goes on. As I read the...

    Soy and Phytoestrogens - Its Effects on Males?

    Hum... Not what I wanted to hear, but truth is truth. ;) Well I never had the shake, so that's good. I think for me personally I'll try to stay away from soy, I have a hard enough time gaining LBM anyway. Thanks for the comments Bryan JWJ

    Soy and Phytoestrogens - Its Effects on Males?

    I am wondering what impact soy products would have on a males (or females for that matter) weight training? I know soy contains phytoestrogens, and I assume estrogen is a enemy of BB because of the estrogen inhibiters/blockers on the market. So how does soy figure in on weight training? What...

    Subway bulking

    2--> Wondering about your comment Dianabol. Are you saying that for me to say to someone &quot;don't eat wheat because its bad for you&quot;, and I say this because I personally do bad with wheat is wrong? - I would agree on that point - Or do you feel that food is just a caloric compound...

    The death nell for ketosis?

    Hey Xahrx, Glad to hear someone else is having success with keto. I also have been able to maintain my cardio and weight training without problem. I hear many say they have a very difficult time weight training in extended ketosis, I do OK out to about 3 weeks of Ketosis and then do a refeed...

    The death nell for ketosis?

    I have been avoiding keto discussions because they seem so divisive. People tend to be pretty passionate about whether they work or not, whether there is a metabolic advantage or not, and on and on. After losing 60 pounds about 2 years ago on a low GI, low carb diet I was pretty passionate...

    Dropsets with Negatives??

    &gt;&gt;&gt;Also, the use of eccentrics after a normal dropset is pointless to me.&lt;&lt;&lt; I may understand you wrong... but I only did dropsets after I did the eccentrics for each muscle. &gt;&gt;&gt;I'd suggest eccentric-only dropsets&lt;&lt;&lt; Interesting... Why would an eccentric...

    Dropsets with Negatives??

    <span style='color:darkblue'>I did my workout tonight and I managed to do negatives on all exercises working out solo, I mostly did one side at a time and used the free arm/leg to get the weight in position. Then after the last set of negs I did dropsets. It was the most intense workout I have...

    Dropsets with Negatives??

    &gt;&gt;&gt;Think Negs as the main course for growth stimulus, and dropsets as the dessert for growth stimulus.&lt;&lt;&lt; I like that! Excellent Illustration! Thanks Dianabol :D
