Wondering what everyone is talking about? Here's some answers:
Please post any others that you think need to be added.
PWO = post work-out
ecto = ectomorph (a body type)
meso = mesomorph
endo = endomorph
RMR = Resting Metabolic Rate
BMR = Basal Metabolic Rate
LBM = Lean Body Mass
EPOC - excess postexercise oxygen consumption
P/C/F = Protein / Carbohidrates / Fat
40/50/10 = these random numbers mean the same thing as P/C/F but not always in that order
Carbs = Carbohidrates
2g/lb = 2 grams per pound
Macros = Macronutrient Ratio
GI = Glycemic Index (High = carbs released into blood stream quickly. Low = carbs released into blood stream slowly)
CHO = carbohydrate
GH = growth hormone
--------------
Measurements
--------------
1g protein = 4 calories
1g carbs = 4 calories
1g fat = 9 calories
8 ounces = 1 cup
12 ounces = 1 pound
16 tablespoons = 1 cup
1 gallon = 16 cups
