  1. Milk vs plant protein dilemma

    The link you provided is just saying that brown rice is low in a certain amino acid, which is true. Whey has the benefit of having a higher amount of some amino acids, while brown rice has the benefit of being higher in other amino acids. So technically, it could be argued that whey is superior...

  2. Milk vs plant protein dilemma

    Brown Rice protein is a complete protein,in fact all proteins are, with the exception of gelatin, I believe. However, Brown Rice protein has a fewer amount of certain amino acids when compared to whey. I do not mix powders, but do eat meat, I am not a vegetarian. I do not believe that making...

  3. Milk vs plant protein dilemma

    I use Naked Rice, by Naked Nutrition you can find it on Amazon. 5 LB bulk tub, raw, meaning no flavoring whatsoever. I personally don’t like artificial flavoring, and I am used to the taste of raw powders. For someone not used to raw rice powder, it might taste terrible at first, but after a...

  4. Milk vs plant protein dilemma

    I used to use whey, until I switched to raw, organic brown rice protein. There is no superior protein powder in my opinion, and eating protein rich foods is even more important. It’s all marketing, switching from whey to a plant based protein like I’ve done will not inhibit gains, and I have...

  5. Epicatechin Allowed under USADA?

    No dark chocolate three months before competition, even the smallest traces show up in tests. (only kidding)

  6. Tricep Pain on Deadlifts

    Was doing deadlifts today, warming up, had 315, did two reps, and the upper part of my tricep hurt, almost like a pulling, then immediately stopped my set. I did one pull-up and felt the pain again. Decided not to do back, and instead did legs. Did I strain my tricep and/or not allow enough...

  7. Bulk Advice & Hello (FD2, Ep1, ABE, etc.)

    All the supplements you mentioned are popular within the community, and your deadlift is really good for your bodyweight. You will most likely get the “food first, supplement later” response, which doesn’t go without merit. I gained 50 pounds in under a year my first year just by eating like a...

  8. Switching it up

    I was recommended that I do a full on push day, which would include chest, shoulders, triceps. Currently I do chest on its own day, formerly done with triceps, but changing it up for the heck of it. I have been doing chest on its own for a few weeks, and pretty much getting stronger each...

  9. Isolating Triceps

    I’m 5’10, around 205 pounds. I started training about a year and a half ago at 156 pounds. Gained 50 pounds in under a year my first year, stretch marks on arms, shoulders, you name it, crazy transformation.

  10. Isolating Triceps

    I plan to do a day of heavier lifting, then the next chest day do a lighter day for hypertrophy and the pump for chest. I never went too heavy with the isolation work either. I do not use elbow sleeves, and have not been stretching, but I do drink a lot of liquids throughout the day.

  11. Isolating Triceps

    Have had problems with tricep strains in the past, and have recently dropped isolation work. My bench has gone up nicely recently, and my triceps are pretty sore after my chest day. My question is as follows; will dropping isolating work for my triceps limit it’s muscle growth? My strength has...

  12. Eating “raw” instant oatmeal?

    Well, I kinda meant that too, haha, but mixing it with other food seems more appetizing. I’m more than likely gonna try eating them straight out of the packet as well, and see if it’s reasonable to use as a packable snack.

  13. Eating “raw” instant oatmeal?

    Just put yogurt in a bowl, poured in some oats and mixed in cut up banana. Pretty gooooodddddd

  14. Eating “raw” instant oatmeal?

    I feel like I could eat the uncooked packets so easily, and therefore get more calories. This is the main reason I’m doing it. Might have like two uncooked packets with yogurt and bananas.

  15. Eating “raw” instant oatmeal?

    Anyone just open the packet of those instant Quaker Oats and just eat them without cooking them? I was thinking about doing this, seems like I could get easily calories this way. Thoughts?
