  1. Article: Fasted Cardio Is Bad

    There's a few solid points in the author's understanding of exercise physiology, but as compudog points out, he's getting confused at some things. I'm only hitting a couple of the bigger things, but, The "fuel continuum" he's talking about is true only to a certain extent. Unless you're doing...

  11. Article: BCAA Timing

    Good read, but does the size of the athlete not matter to the amount of BCAAs and carbs and whatnot? Why is it "consume ten grams of BCAAs with thirty grams of carbohydrates to create a supremely anabolic environment. " ?
