    Can accutane suppress test levels?

    not sure about test levels I would be more concerned with effects on lipid profile and liver enzymes

    Back & chest

    Just saying for me personally i do a lot of volume. An arm workout with nothing but supersets and 90sec rest periods takes me 90min plus

    Are some vitamins, minerals and essential aids better taken before bed?

    Sorry for the delay I was away on vacation. A client of mine has written a few books and he specializes in cellular health. One is called the 24 hour body which is a good read. His name is Richard Helfrich he has a website if you google his name. I cant post links yet!

    Back & chest

    Depends on what your weaknesses are. I would have to train for 3hrs to get through a successful back and chest workout.

    Are some vitamins, minerals and essential aids better taken before bed?

    Everything needs the proper environment to absorb correctly. Some need to be taken with food, some need to be taken on empty stomach, some need fatty acids to absorb, some need sugar molecules to absorb. One of the biggest problems with taking most of these health supps are people do not consume...

    BCAAs throughout the day

    Bob provided plenty of evidence against this. Its still has a caloric effect and if you are on a well balanced diet, you will get no benefit from them. I use BCAA/EAA mix pre morning cardio and again before/during training. I also do not eat within a 3hr window of training so I am as Bob...

    Classic Physique

    Hats off for a bigger guy adding some mass. I had a 6'7'' ex bball player I got ready for MP. He was natty and naturally stringy guy but was able to add some decent thickness to shoulders, back, chest. Arms and legs always tough being that long. Just be careful on orals for that long. I would...

    Best Greens supp?

    AD Wellness Grazed is great. 5g BCAA as well as Organic spinach, spirulina, kale, kelp, broccoli, parsley, pomegranate extract, acrerola extract, flax meal powder, beet root extract. You open it up and it smells like a garden and actually tastes great. I do 1sc with meal 1 and 1 before bed.

    Mopping up a few days off? (Cheat)

    As most stated above, the weekend wont break you. But I understand how we are all headcases. So drop cals a bit these next few days, do a little extra cardio then back on track mid day Sunday and you could just continue at a slightly lower caloric intake for a couple days after. A GDA like...

    Meal question??

    So many variables to what you are asking. Carbs alone not best as you will need some protein. Fats are also great for energy and cals but a fat heavy meal can digest really slow. A plain bagel with coconut oil spread on it and 1c liquid egg whites with 20-25g whey about 1hr prior should digest...

    What is your favorite cheat meal?

    that carrot cake looks bomb! I am cleaning up my cheats for a bit. My go to the past few months has been burger/fries/2 slices of pizza/cookies/brownies/ice cream. Switching to sushi with no desserts for a bit. Want to drastically reduce sugar intake and saturated fats. Trying to reduce some...

    Breakfast then lifting, what to eat?

    Im personally not a fan of oats due to poor digestion with me. I go for jasmine rice, cream of rice, english muffin/bagel/toast for carb sources as they clear a little faster for me. Whey could be causing some bloat as well. Maybe try either going to a solid protein like 5oz of chicken or could...

    49rs have made some good moves and draft picks to their defense. Hopefully John Lynch can turn that team around quickly.
