Just one question... Is the frequency the number of days per week for the exercise?
yes, but as you can see there is some leeway. I don't normally train more then 4-5 times a week, but once you're ON and you can handle the higher frequencies, more power to ya.Just one question... Is the frequency the number of days per week for the exercise?
I'm stoked for you to try it, seriously. If there was any kind of business in slang'n ephedrine bricks, that would be my hustle, damn you Walmart....Delivery on the 29th... I'm stoked.
Jesus, I didn't know whole wheat lasagna existed... I need to find that sh*t pronto...
So this would be for a full body workout... doing all large lifts every time you hit the gym?yes, but as you can see there is some leeway. I don't normally train more then 4-5 times a week, but once you're ON and you can handle the higher frequencies, more power to ya.
Mullet and Steveo's posts were pretty good on recipes.
:food::food::food:
Now if I only had a good, easy recipe, and the time to make it...
No, you would use those numbers whenever you hit those exercises, whatever muscle group day they may be.So this would be for a full body workout... doing all large lifts every time you hit the gym?
Nice, Got it. :head:No, you would use those numbers whenever you hit those exercises, whatever muscle group day they may be.
HA! I completely forgot I read that on the last page before I left for the gym :rofl:Mullet and Steveo's posts were pretty good on recipes.
mmmmmmmmmm........ :food:I'm having a true to life, seafood stew.
- Baby Octopus
- Squid Slices
- Shrimp
- Scallops
- White Cod
edit: - just scooped up some Clams
with some rice in the soup. This thing needs more salt and white pepper.
I could technically translate your entire workout, maybe when you get closer to your M-Drol cycle we can get more into detail.Nice, Got it. :head:
Yeah, they would make a fine contribution to Chef Snags Bodybuilding Thread, aka Snagelrock Cafe.Dayyyyyum, some hella recipes brought to the forefront by Steveoph & Mullet Man.. nice!
I will ask my fiance if she will be kind enough to tell you her recipe in full! I have already given the sauce - as is my style :dance: - so the foundation is all you need!
:food::food::food:

Do these guys think that big ol' protruding gut looks good??!! I believe I would forego the igf shizz for good if I were them. Looks retarded. :icon_lol: To be lean and yet a fat-ass at the same time!!! Fuhget about it!!! :fool2:Sheesh look at the size of the igf induced gut!!
And I thought the cabbage rolls were German. :think: Surely my mother didn't lie to me! :lol: She also made these meat/rice rolls with red bell peppers and even grape leaves. Same method. Roll together ground chuck, rice, and diced onions. Take small hunks and wrap them in the cabbage, grape leaves, or stuff the bell peppers. Place them in a pot of water and tomoto paste. You can season it however you like: garlic, fennel, leeks, or whatever. Let them boil on medium heat for a couple of hours and enjoy!! The suffed bell peppers were my personal favorite. :food::thumbsup:Cabbage Rolls and Meat on a stick sounds awesome. Lots of cultures have a cabbage wrap dish, and I've enjoyed all the wraps I've tired.
As large of a steak fan as I am, I've yet to try veal.
That would be really cool. :thumbsup:I will ask my fiance if she will be kind enough to tell you her recipe in full! I have already given the sauce - as is my style :dance: - so the foundation is all you need!
Plain and simple Mediterranean Tuna and Pasta Dish:That would be really cool. :thumbsup:
I'd even settle for something plain and simple. I'll eat just about anything... :lol:
Thanks Steve! Much appreciated!Mullet Method Mediterranean Madness.. looks like you should get the cooking thread rolling dude! Your expanding talents are impressing me..
Awesome, dig the "c"-raziness there as well, haha.I have most cultures covered carefully in the clutches of culinary capacities!
Definitely! Let me a compile a few recipes that are worthy of mention, and put them together.Awesome, dig the "c"-raziness there as well, haha.
What a great way to eat, nice situation for you two. It's doubly helpful when both partners are health conscious, no doubt about it. I have to fend for myself, since my wife (wonderful woman that she is) doesn't have that particular strong point. She makes a few odd & ends that appeal to me (including a killer zucchini/egg dish that I just maul!), but mostly she caters quick-type things for my kids & her, attempting to stay as nutritious as suits her time constraints.
Seriously, if you're bored some day with some time to kill, you should start a food thread. I'm sure it would be extremely well-received.
So basically, your guys' fetus will have abs.Thanks Steve! Much appreciated!

My Fiance is also a fantastic baker, and via using Splenda, alternative emulsifiers to Butter (Olive Oil and Peanut Oil, primarily), whole wheat flours and protein powder, she has figured out methods to bake all of my favorites! Sugar-free, whole wheat, chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies, banana bread, oatmeal cookies; mostly anything.
As I said, if anybody is interested I could most definitely coerce her into posting some of her creations on here; they make avoiding cheats incredibly easy, as they both satiate and satisfy the craving for junk foods!
I assume she has explored other flours other than whole wheat, or you are being severely short changed! Making Banana-Walnut Bread with Spelt Flour vs. WholeWheat flour is a whole new level.Thanks Steve! Much appreciated!

This reminds me of the AM cookbook that has fluttered around a few times in the past. I'm crazy busy until Wed. when my medschool app is due, but after that I'll help this project out.Definitely! Let me a compile a few recipes that are worthy of mention, and put them together.
My Fiance also works at a Booster Juice (fruit smoothies with no added sugar, with options of Creatine, Protein, Anti-Oxidant 'Boosters') and she often brings them home! She says she is slowly prepping herself to eat healthy for our first child (not for some time, but better safe than sorry!).
Or, maybe, she is one step ahead and uses sprouted grains from our local Farmer's Market from time-to-time! Come now, Steveoph, I wouldn't be behind the times now, would I?I assume she has explored other flours other than whole wheat, or you are being severely short changed!

Easy is that ground almonds? I've made almond crescents before and they're amazing. Mixing Amaranth/Spelt/Buckwheat/WW makes for some pretty crazy pancake batter.Or, maybe, she is one step ahead and uses sprouted grains from our local Farmer's Market from time-to-time!

:think:
Lentils, soft-rye, soft wheat, cracked barley = Nummylicious for Mullet!
EDIT:
Her parents were quite stringent when she was young and incredibly fastidious when it came to cooking and cleaning! She has myriad skills which are far beyond my attention to detail.
Thanks, the power movements really take a lot out of you, and i haven't done any form of cardio since last May (before I re-aggravated my slip disc), so today's HIIT cardio was about two exercises shorter then I originally intended. I'll be upping my cardio in general and try to drop 10lbs-15lbs. This is one of those facilities where I may participate in the conditioning sessions along with the clients on some occasions, so i can't be a b!itch. Which currently, my cardio-respiratory is about as hardcore as a fluffy bunny wearing a Winnie the Pooh costume.Looks great, Volcom. I love those workouts. If I wasn't focused as much on the bodybuilding aspect I would be doing much more powerlifting and agility type exercises.
Same here. But when I read of workouts like Volcom just performed, it makes me long for those old powerlifting days when I incorporated some heavy ass power cleans and good-mornings into my deadlifting routine. Those were special days that taught me who I was and how strong I could be!! :head:Looks great, Volcom. I love those workouts. If I wasn't focused as much on the bodybuilding aspect I would be doing much more powerlifting and agility type exercises.
LOL. I will go Morimoto all over this thread.Let's see, there's Head Chef Snag, Head Chef Mullet, Sous Chef CTDeuce, Jr. Chef Shaddow, Jr. Chef Easy, and myself, who for those of you who have watched Top Chef, play the roll of Padma Lakishmi, who just eats and criticizes the other cooks as if I were a Head Chef.
Ahh, but the best capacity to serve in eh?!Let's see, there's Head Chef Snag, Head Chef Mullet, Sous Chef CTDeuce, Jr. Chef Shaddow, Jr. Chef Easy, and myself, who for those of you who have watched Top Chef, play the roll of Padma Lakishmi, who just eats and criticizes the other cooks as if I were a Head Chef.
If your dead lift form is USDA approved, then you're 60% there.Sick lifts broseph, any advice to someone who's never done those lifts before and wants to try? (clean & jerk specifically) Other than reading up on form and getting form down of course.
for sure, its definitely something you have to leave ego out of entirely while getting form down. If you can also see if you can videotape yourself doing it so you can look at your form afterwards and make adjustmentsBob, start with the bar, then add 10's and just go up to 25's. When you feel that you're no longer "muscling up" the weight, then move up. Even if you are relying on muscling up the weight, rather then the two pull technique, as long as your lumbar form is tight and your using this lighter weight, you won't injure yourself.
congrats on the internship man. one of my close family friends is a crossfit trainer there, but shell be opening up her own cross fit facility pretty son, january i think i heard.Today, I acquired a SECOND internship, this time, at PEAK PERFORMANCE. It's a performance facility heavily based on cross fit principles, free weights, plyo's and functional strength. There are maybe 6 machines in the entire facility. This facility gives me a lot of room to create field work programs, HIIT/Plyo conditioning sessions. All the other trainers are Certified Cross Fit Trainers, I'm the only Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist. One of the principles at this particular facility, is if you can't do it, don't teach it. Book knowledge will not suffice, you have to be in shape to be a trainer here, thus, I need to get in better cardio shape, and sharpen my power lifting techniques and feel.
Today's session was inspired by an as needed, professional basis.
P.S. I performed these power movements at a gym without a power platform or bumper weights, therefore, I could not use weights that may have the potential (luxury) of being dropped.

Definitely not a typical workout for me, but I may be performing some more power movements, as I'll be instructing them to athletes and lay persons on a more scrutinized and regular basis.
Great idea. If I video myself doing it, think you can give me some pointers Volcom?for sure, its definitely something you have to leave ego out of entirely while getting form down. If you can also see if you can videotape yourself doing it so you can look at your form afterwards and make adjustments
nah. i had my backpack loaded with t shirts, my homeade protein bars, and a bottle of water. and the osteo sport and neovar i picked up from jammie at the AN booth.Great idea. If I video myself doing it, think you can give me some pointers Volcom?
And I was wondering where I factored into your chef list . I thought maybe my lasagna didn't hit your weak spot enough
Roland are all the samples loaded up in the backpack ?
I'm so freakin' jealous. Markus Ruhl rules!! :head: He still looks big as a house. Has Branch already had his triceps re-attached and looking that good already??!! :think: He's just a straight-up freak!! :twisted: I watch his DVD almost every week at some point before some workout!! :lol:ps. met some cool doods at the olympia...
