    The Arachidonic Acid Help Guide

    Very informative and helpful thread, thanks! Question (hopefully didn't skip the post where it's answered already): is there any indication that women should dose differently?

    I have never used it before. I'm interested, too, to see if women respond to it differently. I'll be posting updates as I have them :)

    ThighGrl's journey to more muscle

    And, my extreme accurate bodyfat scale tells me I'm now at 153.8 lbs and 21.8% bodyfat. Hoping that a bit of that weight gain is muscle.

    ThighGrl's journey to more muscle

    Wow, not quite sure where the last three weeks went. Well, some of it was spent finding a new awesome job, and part (not as much as I'd like working out). I did change my workouts to 1 day 5x5 program, and 2 days doing the higher rep range. I did the 5x5 for 5 months total, and while it was...

    ThighGrl's journey to more muscle

    Thanks for the support! Here's a first update, which is not really an update as much as saying that I haven't fallen off the wagon yet. I missed one day last week (day #2). Strength is still increasing slowly, I'm guessing part of that is still getting used to the different training style. And...

    ThighGrl's journey to more muscle

    So, here is my attempt to gain 17 lbs of muscle in 800 days, starting 02/01/2014 (yep, 11 days ago). These numbers come from a nifty goal setting feature of a popular bodybuilding website, where the only option that had me not loose lean body mass was 'bodybuilder'. I figured, it's better than...

    Gain 17lbs of muscle in 800 days??

    Right now I'm getting about 60-80g protein, and 1800-2200 kcal a day. Still trying to find my maintenance levels for my macros, but I think protein has to go up at least 100g a day.

    Gain 17lbs of muscle in 800 days??

    Thanks for the replies. I'm going to start a training log on here soon, whenever I have a bit of time. Yeah, said website (I can't post the link, can I? It's not hard to find though, it's a highly frequented bodybuilding website) specifically said lean mass. I entered my stats, chose what...

    Gain 17lbs of muscle in 800 days??

    Do you think this is possible (I'm female)? I would like to keep it natural for as long as feasible. Here's a bit more detail. First of all, why the somewhat strange numbers? There are from the new (actually kind of neat, but a little buggy) goal-setting function on a different bodybuilding...

    gaining muscle??

    Wow, didn't expect that many replies. To answer some of the questions that were raised: Diet: could use some cleaning up. I follow a mostly Paleo style, I.e. lost of fruit, veggies, and eggs and meat for protein, plus some dairy. No fast food really, have never really done that. Getting about...

    gaining muscle??

    Thanks for all the replies. So from what I've been reading (here and in other threads), anavar could help women bulk, but does little for men in general. What kind of mass gains can women typically expect? What else is there that women could take relatively safely? (Yea, I'm female, just...

    gaining muscle??

    A little unsure where to post this .... what can/do women take (in the way of AAS, PH, etc.) for gaining muscle mass? It seems that if women take a steroid then it's anavar for cutting. I'm just interested in gaining muscle mass right now ... I've been working out for the past 4-5 years, and am...
