  1. for how long is protein synthesis accelerated after training?

    If anyone got some studies for me, I would be grateful. I've already been searching and all I came up with is that protein synthesis is higher for 24-48 hours, depending on rep range, number of sets, etc... but its all very vague. And then there is the question of regeneration of damaged...
  2. increase non weight training days on a cut?

    I've been thinking about increasing the days between weight workouts on a cut... the reasoning is the following: 1. increased regeneration time needed for recovery, because of the kcal deficit 2. because of more cardio, the training volume would increase too much (for me) 3. I've been having...
  3. Supplements for Joint-pain?

    I second cissus. Its especially good for tendons etc... But I would also supplement with building blocks such as glucosamine, and collagen. Torn human rotator cuff tendons have reduced collagen thermal properties on differential scanning calorimetry. J Orthop Res. 2011 Dec;29(12):1938-43. doi...
  4. Floaters caused by DAA?

    Literature is important, but it is not everything. Thats why new drugs have to go through extensive trials to see what side effects could show up that were not foreseeable. And most of the time, some show up... so forgive me, but your statement is not entirely correct. Here are my arguments...
  5. Floaters caused by DAA?

    Yea thats pretty normal. It is not wet, it only seems to attract water from the air more easily. Did you notice any improvements from Acetylcysteine? Like... less muscle soreness, any improvements in floaters, better regeneration... less inflammation...? The rash could be your bodies answer to...
  6. What vitamins / minerals / other are needed for optimum testosterone synthesis?

    Unfortuately I was not able to find a proper explanation of testosterone synthesis in the human body... anyone got an url for me? However, what I know is that the following nutrients are needed for testosterone synthesis: vitamin d vitamin a vitamin k(2) zinc selenium cholesterol magnesium...
  7. D-aspartic acid and Sodium d-aspartic difference?

    I would not be too concerned with solubility, at least I like to think that anything gets dissolved good enough somewhere inside my system. But I might be wrong. Yea, you're not alone... ;)
  8. Beat supp herbal or other (non narcotic) for increased neuro activity

    I would try: acetylcysteine - strong antioxidant, and your brain might still be recovering, dealing with oxidative damage (together with vit c) acetyl-l-carnitine - has a positive effect on neurotransmitters, improves metabolism in the brain, helps with focus (will also help your heart) Alpha...
  9. Best joint medication?

    Glucosamine, chondroitin are almost only helpful in joints free of inflammation, so first goal would be to kill the inflammation. Cheapest antiinflammatories are celadrine and devils claw (did not use the second one but heard great things about it). Cissus would stack great with celadrine. It's...
  10. Anyone ever use Hyaluronan Injections?

    I never tried devil's claw but I heard good things about it... keep us updated on ho r3-IGF-1 works out for you!
  11. a lie article about myostatin blockers

    So the study I was referring to is completely wrong? Mind explaining to me why?
  12. D-aspartic acid and Sodium d-aspartic difference?

    DAA is acidic, with addition of sodium bicarbonate DAA becomes less acidic, even neutral, depending on the dosage. High acidity means tooth enamel damage(long term), and heartburn for some, so the less acid the better. I don't know of any problems with the sodium form especially. You can trial...
  13. Anyone ever use Hyaluronan Injections?

    I was referring more to training with heavy weights and exercises that directly put pressure on the problematic area. Would be pointless to use all these supps and then not even being able to to light weight exercises such as cardio, and I assume dancing might be similar (depening on what...
  14. Anyone ever use Hyaluronan Injections?

    Most people, me included, were not aware of the fact that inflammation can be targeted from a lot of different angles, so once I found out and stacked stuff that complements one another I really started seeing progress. So you really should see improvement, and maybe even regeneration to some...
  15. Floaters caused by DAA?

    Forgot to ask one question: Did you ever check your ratio of omega 3 to omega 6 fatty acids in your diet? You might want to avoid o-6 to a high degree (but not completely) and boost your levels of o-3, a 1:1 ratio would be great. Because a bad o3 to o6 ratio greatly increases inflammation...
