    Lifting Reps or Heavy?

    I'm conflicted about that. The NSCA-CPT book I have actually had a whole paragraph about how going to failure might be counterproductive, which is weird, but I'm not a strength scientist so I have no idea who to trust.

    Does planet fitness have free weights?

    Yeah, but the Planet Fitness I know is DIRT cheap. Like, $10 monthly. A Gold's gym is $30. That said, there's a point where you pretty much have to switch. If you're incline pressing 75s, it's time to upgrade.

    Studies are conflicting so I don’t believe in science

    Sure, but I'll add this nitpick: it's inappropriate to draw conclusions and pass them off as equally rigorous as if you had read the whole article, at least.

    Does planet fitness have free weights?

    It's dirt cheap, so if you have one near you it might be an affordable option. The one I know of has dumbbells up to 75lb. Obviously that's still limiting but if you get to the point where you need something more, you can always switch. The major downside, though, is that they don't have free...

    Bro science vs Science

    mistakes I've made in the past: - underestimating how many calories I needed - lifting heavier than I needed to (like, sets of 3 reps and ****.)

    Test E Only Cycle Advise. Opinions Appreciated!

    Curious about how this cycle's been going. I like the simplicity of Test E only.

    The Rant Thread

    I agree with the first half of your post but not the second half. It still requires a lot of knowledge and work, just not as much work as you'd have to put in doing it naturally. People at the Olympia level have arguably put in more work since they have to monitor so many different drugs and...

    Lifting Reps or Heavy?

    I've heard that it's more about total weight lifted than a particular rep scheme.

    Studies are conflicting so I don’t believe in science

    In some cases, though, this may be because the abstract is all that's available. If you don't have university access to databases or a lot of disposable income to front for the article or a subscription, you're out of luck.

    I need to lose body fat

    If you're doing weight training and lifting heavy and keeping your protein up with a decent amount of carbs, you shouldn't lose *that* much muscle. Protein intake and keeping regular lifts is probably the most important part. Have you tried IF?

    Gordon Ramsay Scrambled Eggs

    This has probably been posted before, but it's a good recipe and it's easy to add in absurd amounts of calories via extra butter / oil if you need it. Invalid Link Removed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUP7U5vTMM0

    Old School BodyBuilders over today's millenium's BB

    I think it'd depend on what kind of drugs are developed in the future, since there's obviously a limit currently -- even for people using gear.

    It's discontinued now? I swear, the bannings on these things are too much.

    What is the best form of MMA to learn first? (muay thai or BJJ)

    I actually went through the top mma fighters on Wikipedia once and looked at their backgrounds. Muay Thai, BJJ and wrestling were represented with about equal proportion. So whichever of these you pick, you're probably solid.

    Boxer vs mma fighter

    Any sort of fighting is going to be defined by what you're not allowed to do. In MMA you can't punch to the nuts or grab a weapon or gouge someone's eyes out or anything like that. Realistically, the person who wins a street fight is going to be the person who has the best...
