    Best Ways To Prevent/Cure a Hangover?!!?!?

    I truly appreciate the answers like "don't drink" and stuff like that... Sometimes it just happens, sometimes you may not even have been that drunk the night before and it happens. I have missed sleep after drinking lightly and then feel like hell the next day. It's like if someone were to come...

    The Lean Gains / IF learning and Discussion Log

    Indeed, it's a diet / lifestyle just like any other. It gives you more freedom to do some things and less freedom for others, but it comes down to what works best for you. Personally, I enjoy working out real hard and then devouring a triple baconator com Wendy's as a late lunch. Or eating...

    Sweet Sweat - Has anyone used it? (spot reduction)

    Even with the saran wrap? That thing by itself makes me sweat like crazy

    Sweet Sweat - Has anyone used it? (spot reduction)

    That was my thought for the "it works". I get some great effect with Preparation H to get rid of water weight with saran wrap too. Sweet Sweat is supposed to be more of a long term, but just haven't seen many feedback on forums.

    The Lean Gains / IF learning and Discussion Log

    Yep, I'm carb intolerant and cycle pretty much like this; I up the carbs on workout days (about 150g of carbs right after my workout) and then keep it under 30g on the rest day. I also workout heavy and often enough where I feel like I have utilized a good portion of the glycogen storage when...

    Sweet Sweat - Has anyone used it? (spot reduction)

    Did the weight / looks went back to as it was before a few days after or was it a lasting effect? I.e. was it all just water weight?

    Sweet Sweat - Has anyone used it? (spot reduction)

    To be honest I did feel significantly warmer when I applied it. Not like a hot / cold, capisaicin burning feeling, just overall warmer temperature, as if I was closer to a camp fire, but didn't quite do any cardio on the only instance I did try it from my friend, so that's why I'm skeptical on...

    Sweet Sweat - Has anyone used it? (spot reduction)

    Now this itworks body wraps, I can't help but call it BS right off the bat but seeing someone comment does kinda intrigue me. Care to elaborate? I just don't understand how 45 minutes of ANY application can really do much to someone, perhaps it can dehydrate and get rid of excess water but just...

    Intermittent Fasting question

    My answer to not being able to eat at some times is to bring protein shakes, almonds, and pecans to work, and then either eat them as the light food before workout or the light food at the end of the feeding period. Have you tried something in those lines?

    Sweet Sweat - Has anyone used it? (spot reduction)

    So, I've heard a buddy of mine talk about this product, kind of a spot reduction help for when doing aerobic workout. I've tried Eviscerate and other spot reduction and noticed a little help indeed but nothing drastic, but it was always horrible to use while doing cardio due to the burning and...

    Build traps?

    Well, on the 135, you would need to be pretty damn low BF% in order to look big at 135lb. Urijah Faber - which IMHO is one of the best "physiques" in MMA - competes at 135lb with 5'6'' height. Yes, he most likely walks at 150ish, but then someone who is 5'5'' or below could perhaps look jacket...

    treadmill or elliptical

    I have a bad endurance problem, can't run for long periods of time to save my life, but can do sprints but no long term running. So if I'm gunning for long periods I would choose elliptical. If HIIT running on incline. If I'm sore I'll also do elliptical as it is easier on the joints and muscle

    Intermittent Fasting question

    I guess my question would be, why not change your eat window or change your workout schedule? IF is great but meal timing can always be beneficial; if you were to eat right after your workout you would be giving your body the nutrients needed; you would also be spiking some insulin pending on...

    Why do people do cardio?

    Plenty of ways that cardio complements lifting too, as well as helping in different areas; e.g. fasted cardio; spot reduction ointments / treatments. increased circulation, muscle endurance, muscle recovery, and the list goes on. Also, hitting the cardio machine may allow for you to be a little...

    Bulk or Cut?

    Bulk, but honestly looking at your pictures I don't think any supplementation aside from the staples are necessary If you get into a good routine with plenty of calories you should spike up very fast seeing that you have so much room to grow (no pun intended) and not near a plateau yet. Leave...

    Should I be working out my abs?

    I indirectly train abs on a daily basis as I boxe 4 days a week, so the rotation and all the indirect training is there. Also on squats, deads, etc compound movements on my 3x lifting during the week. But my real concern was as pointed, this is the only area I retain fat, Caliper wise for...

    Should I be working out my abs?

    Alright ladies and gent, Here is my question; I am well aware that abs are done in the kitchen, not at the gym. I'm sitting at 11% BF but my body composition sucks real bad and I have literally all of my fat sitting pretty on my lower abs. I'm 6'4'', 215, and all of my fat is on my lower abs...

    Boxing and workout routine

    That doesn't seem to focus much on strength / size it seems; guess I should have stated that I was still looking for strength and size, not just for it to help with boxing, just not to interfere with it.

    Boxing and workout routine

    Hello all, I've gotten back to my boxing ways to change things up a bit and am wondering what workout routine I should follow outside of the boxing gym. Used to boxe way back when and although I can pack some weight and still make my class, I can't pack on too much weight nor have the privilege...

    Appetite Suppressant without Stims

    Good thing to know indeed. I was on Clonazepam but have diminished / discontinued the majority of the usage on this, am down to about .25mg once a week or so, but would rather steer away from even the possibility of this.
