  1. Rice Krispies Treats -- Clean style

    Recipe sounds pretty damn good. If you're tempted to cheat, might as well do it with something relatively clean. Thanks for posting!

  2. Dieting for powerlifting

    And Lou, as far as the weight cuts go, most of the lifters I train with either go full ketogenic or cycle carbohydrates to lose the weight.

  3. Dieting for powerlifting

    Also a powerlifter here. You'll get so many different replies on the subject of diet, even from a community of athletes as supposedly lax on their caloric intake as PLers. At my training facility, it seems the lifters are split between those who diligently bring their carefully prepared...

  4. Overreem

    I don't think Alistair's chin will prove to be incredibly durable against JDS, that much I agree with. But this argument isn't always valid. Hunt was knocked out by Manhoef, a middleweight...does that mean that his chin is in question?

  5. Cooking In Bulk

    Fruits and vegetables have caloric value regardless of what misinformation you may have heard about gaining weight. The key is to be consistent. If you haven't counted fibrous vegetables in your daily counts thus far, then no need to start. But if you somehow believe that five bananas and a...

  6. low testosterone epidemic: carloric restriction and overtraining

    Good points here about the caloric restriction, but "overtraining" is a term used far too loosely. Too much exercise for one's personal needs, sure. But CNS overtraining is something else entirely. For the recreational lifter/fitness enthusiast, this is not even remotely a concern,no matter...

  7. College vs Trade School or nothing at all....

    Poor economy or not, trade school is never a better option than college. And university educated people don't necessarily want a job where they can "sit on their asses" as someone asserted above. That's a hideous criticism to levy against a proper education.

  8. Designing the "ultimate" preWO - input appreciated

    Also, most likely going to substitute ALCAR for the L-carnitine fumarate, dosed at 1.5 grams. Unless, of course, someone can offer some feedback on the fumarate that's overwhelmingly positive.

  9. Designing the "ultimate" preWO - input appreciated

    After some serious experimentation with stim and non-stim preworkouts, I've decided to attempt a design of my own consisting of hopefully efficacious amounts of nootropics, ergogenics, etc. Essentially, I'm tired of supplement prices, insubstantial dosing, and company hype, so bulk ingredients...

  10. Hemavol (32 Servings)

    I love iForce products, and Maximize is one of the best preworkouts I've used, but I get absolutely nothing at all from Hemavol. As a powerlifter I'm less concerned with the pump than I am with performance benefits, but dosing at two scoops (which appears to be the minimum for effective...

  11. Opinions before I start Epi?

    I believe the suggestion is 250mg of TUDCA, not Epi.

  12. Help me understand this...

    I was in a similar situation until a week ago and I definitely sympathize with you. From my own experience, pursuing a girl like that will only lead to heartbreak. Find someone with the emotional maturity to sustain a legitimate relationship with you outside of old boyfriends...trust me on...

  13. Any Good Books?

    Not sure if you're a fan of Steinbeck's writing, but East of Eden was an extraordinarily good read. I'd also recommend Factotum and Post Office by Bukowski for darker, more psychologically unnerving reading. Modern authors worth looking into? Early Nick Hornby for a spectacular take on the...

  14. Tomhawk Is Eating His Cake And Having It Too (CBL)

    Tom, glad to hear you're getting back in the swing of things. I do have a quick question...isn't SS too linear of a program for someone as experienced as you are, especially given your numbers on the compounds? I know you're switching to a drastically different diet scheme and returning from...

  15. beginning

    Celorza's got some excellent overall advice for you. You may also want to consider the fact that Olympic lifts are incredibly dangerous without proper coaching, and throwing on more weight simply because you're "discouraged" at 145 pounds and your height is a recipe for disaster. Take your...

  16. True Nutrition Protein

    I can't speak for their proteins, but I can tell you that whatever flavoring agents/mix they use for their so-called premium BCAAs are the most foul-tasting powder I've ever consumed. That being said, their service and shipping are fine, but they've got some balls to sell their garbage premium...

  17. Your go to song for Squats and Deads

    Jay, Agnostic Front and some of the other NYHC bands were a staple for me growing up even as a California kid. Roger Miret's side project, the Disasters, is also some excellent stuff though it's quite different from AF.

  18. Your go to song for Squats and Deads

    The posters above naming Agnostic Front know what they're talking about. I haven't listened to music during max attempts for some time but my old staple was "My War" by Black Flag. And anything by the Dead Kennedys works well in a pinch.

  19. gokix's summer kickoff!

    Gokix, I never comment on photos, but in your case I just wanted to say you look fantastic and the results of your dedication are apparent. Keep up the good work.

  20. Ketosis carbs?

    There's plenty of reading you can do on keto. Look into Lyle McDonald or the Anabolic Diet. No carbs other than fibrous green vegetables and nuts until refeeds.
