Force of Green said:So, if I ordered AP on Friday December 22nd, it should be on it's way to my door by now? Thanks.
Awesome! Thanks! I'm doubling an extreme fatloss stack with my NHA stack, but I'm avoiding stims.USPLabs said:You should recieve by tomorrow the latest.
Force of Green said:I've been on the CAMP for a couple months and worked up... you sure about the glucophase xr just at night? 3 caps nightly (not around the time of any AP doses) would be an issue?

Restore is an AI, prolactin minimizing, cortisol controlling agent. I'm not overdoing the AIs with them both. My joints and everything are fine and ALRI has a stack outline with JW, Restore, Bad Ass Mass as well.USPLabs said:what is restore? I know JW has an anti estrogen.
For sure. I'm going to take 1 cap of AP before breakfast, 1 before my post workout meal, and one before dinner and I'll end up retiring for the night about 4-6 hours later.Ziricote said:Hmm...As long as it's ~4-6+ hours after your last Anabolic-Pump dose it won't be an issue.

Yeah... oops.Ziricote said:I like how that link and the link inside don't give an ingredient list...

Same here. USP Labs said mine will be in today at the latest. I'm kinda eager to test this 'Holy Grail'.BodyWizard said:other than a confirmatory e-mail, I've received nothing - not even an idea of when it might ship...Priority Mail's never been this slow before.

Yeah Freezito. The carbs I keep stocked in the pantry consists of a VERY wide variety of products. I'll just say that for breakfast I'll go by one of these:freezito said:force of green, could u give me a list of the best complex carbs too eat? I think i know most of them but just in case Im forgetting something. I like too mix things up once and awhile.
There are many different varieties of rice. They differ in amounts of nutrition and, more importantly, the type of starch. There are two types of starch in rice: amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is a long, straight starch molecule that does not gelatinize during cooking (think of making gelatin), so rice which contains more of this starch tends to cook fluffy, with separate grains. Long grain white rice has the most amylose and the least amylopectin, so it tends to be the fluffiest and least sticky. Amylose also hardens more when cool, joining tightly together and forming crystals that melt when the rice is reheated.
Rice that is high in amylose has a lower Glycemic Index number.
Amylopectin is a highly branched molecule that makes the rice sticky when it's released from the grain during cooking. Medium grain rice has more amylopectin, making it a good candidate for risottos, salads and rice pudding, which are served cold. And short grain rice has even more amylopectin and little to no amylose, so it's used most often for Asian cooking, when you want grains to be sticky so they are easier to eat with chopsticks. Then there's glutinous rice, which is very sticky when cooked, with the highest amount of amylopectin and no amylose.
White rice has the hull and bran removed, diminishing its nutritional content. But in the U.S., rice is generally enriched, with nutrients like calcium, riboflavin, iron, and niacin added. Brown rice has just the hull removed, so it has more fiber and nutrition. Converted rice is boiled or steamed before it is processed, which forces some vitamins and minerals into the kernel from the bran. Converted rice is higher in nutrients than plain white rice. And wild rice is not a grain, but a seed of a grass native to North America.
When rice cooks, the heat and liquid start permeating the surface of the rice. The starch molecules inside the rice grains start breaking down and absorb water to form a gel. The type of starch in the rice determines whether it will be fluffy or sticky.
Force of Green said:Yeah Freezito. The carbs I keep stocked in the pantry consists of a VERY wide variety of products. I'll just say that for breakfast I'll go by one of these:
Whole grain oats (made into oatmeal of course)
100% Whole wheat bread
100% Whole wheat bagel or English Muffin
Hot Bran cereal
The meals preceeding that I'll throw in these sources into the equation:
Whole grain brown rice
Long grain enriched white rice
Sweet potato
Yam
Whole wheat pasta
The white rice is fine for slower digestion because it is a longer grain and contains very little amylopectin. Read through this article about different types of rice. It's very helpful:
Post-workout I prefer to use a medium grain white rice (I'd say 100 grams for me does great) It has the bran and the husk removed and is usually enriched. You can cook a big pot of this rice and add a little bit of splenda and some skim plus and you have post-workout rice pudding. 50 grams of whey in a shake and this 'rice pudding' will give a perfect 600 cals give or take of quick acting protein and medium carbohydrate absorption rate. Perfect when using AP postworkout. Pop the AP before your 10-15 minute cooldown after your workout and drink ur shake and enjoy your rice. You'll get good replenishment and I don't experience lethargy afterwards. Continue eating your balanced meals within 2 hours after the PW meal.
Later night meals I eat beans and lean protein. Beans have some good carbs and high fiber content. They're also rich in plant source protein. A typical nighttime meal for me is black beans and cajun grilled chicken with some string beans.
If you want to get more creative and try something else for your post workout carb blend, get some short grain (starchy) white rice and make a ratio of 2:1 medium grain: short grain rice. It'll make for thicker pudding and a better insulin response, even though digestion will still be slowed down a little by the protein ingestion.
Be creative and mix it up. Once you learn to eat intuitively and whatnot, you'll not really worry about getting fat or anything. Don't overtrain, get your sleep and rest, eat your 6 meals a day and you're golden. The key for my success is meal preparation. Take time and prepare your meals in advance. My fridge has fresh chicken and fish that I grilled in advance, already cooked rice (a pot of brown and a pot of the white) and I love Birdseye vegetables too. Everyone agrees that fast food is convenient, so make good food available to you, faster. You need not set more than 2 cooking sessions per week to get settled.
