    Burning belly fat?

    While I admire your zeal here, I draw umbrage with a lot of the things you said. 1. Remove all salt, fat, and sugar, and this is non-negotiable? So you want him to tank his electrolyte, hormone, and blood sugar levels all in one fell swoop? 2. No beef, pork, or salmon because they are too...

    Burning belly fat?

    Have you had your test and estradiol levels checked? I had a similar issue for the longest time where I was lean as **** everywhere except for around my abs. I kept telling myself it was just because I wasn't lean enough and needed to keep dropping fat, but no matter how far I got, I rarely saw...

    Carb cycling 3 low 1 high repeat.

    2500 seems low for your size. I'd start at like 3,000 and adjust from there. But you're overthinking this way too much man. High carbs/low fat, high fat/low carbs, moderate fat/moderate carbs, who cares? In the end, get your overall calories and protein under control, and you will drop fat as...

    Carb cycling 3 low 1 high repeat.

    His whole site is great and I'd recommend reading as much as you can if you're eager to learn more, but for starters: http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/setting-the-deficit-small-moderate-or-large.html (this will help you set your calories)...

    Carb cycling 3 low 1 high repeat.

    If you're trying to get shredded, hunger and not feeling full are two things you have to get used to unfortunately. I'd definitely drop your protein down to 1g per pound (285g per day). Some people like 1.5, but I'd say you're safe at 1g/lb. A bunch of us can give you overall diet...

    Carb cycling 3 low 1 high repeat.

    Can you give us more info on your current stats? Weight, approximate bodyfat %, etc... Also, your protein seems astronomically high on your low carb days. You're at like 450g on the low days, which would probably be overkill for even a 300 pound bodybuilder.

    Which TRT Provider

    Yeah. I'm not too familiar with how insurance works, but I would imagine that if you had labs done and could show the insurance company that you have a legit medical need for test, most of them should have no problems covering it, right? Assuming you have a good insurance company anyway. I...

    Which TRT Provider

    I'd say look for an anti-aging men's clinic. The one I go to is called Ageless Men's Health and they have locations across the country (US). My insurance covers it too, since my levels were actually low for my age. I pay a $10 co-pay every week for test, HCG, and an AI. Blood draws are also...

    supplements to aid and or speed up injury?

    Good deal man. Went out and did some sprints yesterday myself. Feels good to be training outside in the nice weather again.

    supplements to aid and or speed up injury?

    Keep it simple man, no reason to waste money on all these supps. Get some anti-inflammatories (ibuprofen, naproxen), add in some fish oil, and take a break from anything that aggravates your forearm. Add in more leg work like someone already suggested, so that way you're not sitting around...

    Any Good Black Friday/Cyber Monday Deals for USP Labs Modern BCAA?

    Ah damnit. Haha my bad... There's like 3 sections that all look similar, and I saw most Black Friday threads here so I figured this one would work.

    What is your weakest Link?

    Most underdeveloped would have to be medial delts, upper chest, and calves, but that's because I never really started trying to hypertrophy them until recently. I always focused purely on strength and neglected a lot of hypertrophy work for these areas. As for what holds me back, I have...

    Gangsta Rap while lifting, need more; help!

    It's not even funny how bad mainstream rap is these days. Everyone sounds like they are trying to rap and gargle mouthwash at the same time. I can't even listen to more than 3 seconds of it.
