  1. How Many Calories Should Be Eaten for Intense Cardio?

    That's why we are here. To share our experiences, bounce ideas and learn. A lot of very smart people on this site. Even though I strongly agree with Taubes and eating low carb/high protein-good fats, I still incorporate intermittent fasting at times. It is a form of "calorie restriction" and...

  2. The AnabolicMinds 100,000 Rep Squat Challenge!!!!

    146 yesterday (start light, go to 6 reps heavy, and back down) . So 146+52050 = 52,196. Someone check my math!

  3. How Many Calories Should Be Eaten for Intense Cardio?

    I am clueless about nitrogen and I am no expert on weight loss. But Taubes book/lecture will make you realize that there is more to fat accumliation than "calories in and calories out" theory of weight loss. Control insulin and you control fat. But we need insulin to build muscle, don't we...

  4. Absorption of testosterone. Leg or thigh?

    Well that's good news! I have diabetic pet and I give him 2 injects a day. The syringe says 29g. Is that similar to a 25g or is that a lot smaller? Sorry for the newbie questions.

  5. How Many Calories Should Be Eaten for Intense Cardio?

    It is possible to increase body fat while eating too little if you are eating primarily carbs. Third world countries are full of obesity because of this. I suggest reading Gary Taubes " Why we get Fat". Or take one hour, google Taubes and the book title and listen to his lecture.

  6. Elbow tendonitis prevention of reoccurences

    Here is a paragraph from Mark Sisson at Mark's Daily Apple: To understand why that imbalance is so harmful, you have to understand eicosanoids. Polyunsaturated fats (which include Omega-3s, like fish oil, and Omega-6s) convert to eicosanoids in the body. Both Omega-6 and Omega-3-derived...

  7. Absorption of testosterone. Leg or thigh?

    How sore is the muscle after the injection? Reading this post makes me think you would have to avoid working that part until the soreness was gone, or you do just man up and fight through it?

  8. help with body fat lose

    I can't post links yet. Go to Mark's Daily Apple (another great site) and search the archives for intermittent fasting. Also Mark has great nutritional advice for weight loss from a common-sense, low-carb perspective.

  9. help with body fat lose

    You and I are about same dimensions. A few years back I got sick of the soft look despite regular weight training and traditional cardio. Sometimes you have to step back too see what is important. For you, it is BF reduction per your post. Prioritize this. If your bench goes down who gives a...

  10. Weight training for MMA

    My advice is to not worry about the losing strength in weight room. At least at this point. You are training your body in a new skill. You are developing different strength, your speed and cardio vascular. This is great and congrats for the balls and discipline to do it. I do not do MMA but I...

  11. Running

    I think every other day run is fine. I also like the bike on some days. Some days I skip rope or stair master. I also like sprints which build wind and fast twitch muscle. I think doing the same thing every day makes it less affective as your body adapts, and it can lead to a chronic injury...

  12. help with body fat lose

    Leangains is the website and the name of a fasting regime that advocates an 8 hour window of eating and a 16 hour fasting period. It makes your body use stored energy (fat) and hence lose weight. It is supposed to minimize protein/muscle loss while doing this. I work nights so here is my...

  13. help with body fat lose

    How motivated are you to lose BF? Try lowering your carbs to 50 grams a day, intermittent fasting 16/8 protocol (leangains), increase cardio. Obviously continue to lift. Your strength might go down some but not as much as not going to the gym for a month.

  14. Effective weight loss?

    Congrats going from 245 to 178 - helluva an accomplishment. If you lost all that you may be ahead of me here but here is my 2 cents: Weight management should be diet driven. HIIT is great for wt loss but without proper diet you are paddling upstream. I would go ketogenic (atkins) , or at very...

  15. Running

    Like anything else, improving in area of fitness requires priorities. It wont improve if you continue to just give it a 10 min "warm up" status. Do you desire better wind, want to burn fat or the ability run long distances? I usually do some form of cardio prior to my weight training for at...

  16. Absorption of testosterone. Leg or thigh?

    will do. and thanks.

  17. Elbow tendonitis prevention of reoccurences

    I had it in both for years. Cort. inj helped but it came back. I believe there is something to omega 3/omega 6 balance. I switched paleo eating and switched to good fats and oils and eliminated all vegetable oils/margarine. I also take fish/krill oil supplements. It took some time, but my elbows...

  18. Absorption of testosterone. Leg or thigh?

    Thanks for the reply. I don't want to hijack oldschools original post, but I was wondering. My doc will probably be clueless about what panel to run and trt in general.

  19. Absorption of testosterone. Leg or thigh?

    New to forum and 48. I am curious about trt. I have not been tested but suspect its low. How does one get a doctor to prescribe trt injection versus topicals or another form? Also, are the doses high enough to increase muscle growth beyond what I am achieving naturally? Thanks.
