    Topic of the week: Is Overtraining BS?

    The bottom paragraph is key. Not that I will start working out once a week but it's def something to consider when things stall. Great point! I still believe most philosophies work when done correctly with adaquate effort. Some more than others but I like to switch it up every so often. Always...

    Topic of the week: Is Overtraining BS?

    After reading a post above its sounds as if you rarely train 15 days apart unless you were physically inept. so you have completely misconstrued his training style. as posted abouve his training style doesnt sound ridiculous, only the way you have presented it is ridiculous. It doesnt sound as...

    Rep Fatigue? Advice please

    Could you be putting in a little too much the first set? if i grind out my first set it always ruin's secondary sets for me. Is your rest time long enough? If your goal is more reps I would increase rest times. don't get excessive. It is OK for your HR to come down between sets. Save cardio for...

    Bodybuilding: How it held me back and is now propelling me forward

    I have very few people in my life that I can talk passion with, even fewer I can share my passion for bodybuilding with. I suppose that is why I have chosen to write this. Just to share. After seven or eight years of very consistent training I feel now very differently about bodybuilding than...

    WHITE CHRISTIAN MALES AND DISCRIMINATION

    I as a "white non-Christian" feel the values of "Christian White" pushed onto society all the time. If Christian extremists had there agendas fulfilled I'm not sure anything would be better, or less self serving. Maybe the larger issue is that people identify so very strongly as a "Christian...

    Girl can't lose weight

    Im no expert but I wouldn't start doing things like nolva. jIjust because dan douchane used that with his athletes to give them a competitive edge does not mean it should just be used to help spur weightloss. U may end up doing more harm than good. If you can't lose weight without drugs there is...

    Topic of the week: Is Overtraining BS?

    Here is my thoughts. What you experienced is initial gains from those substances. You would not have continued gaining weight at that rate. It would have slowed and ultimately stopped and you would have struggled the same to gain anymore size. Same with aas. if your not training like a jackass...

    Girl can't lose weight

    I am far from an expert but I would watch not to get too low with calories. This is only intuition speaking but I would not do any drastic dieting approaches until the thyroid issue is resolved. I would think anything extreme could cause more issues than it would resolve. I may be out to lunch...

I know it helps improve oxygen delivery therefore contributing to better performance but to be honest I have always shy'd away from cardio. being that I have always worked physical jobs and naturally have a...

    Topic of the week: Is Overtraining BS?

    I think using the term overtraining overcomplictaes the matter. A better question may be am I doing too much work based on my diet, rest and outside stress factors. The saying "overtraining does not exist only under eating....... blah blah" may be true but in real life we all have constraints...
