  1. Excess Protein Not Stored as Fat; More Useful for Bulking or Fat Loss?

    Hi Everyone, Will Brink has been posting a lot about some studies that show protein over-feeding. As opposed to CHO or Lipid overfeeding, excess protein does not seem to cause the same amount of fat gain (or muscle gain). 1. Here are the references to the study. Participants went from...
  2. Best Dynamic Warm-Up in the World?

    Hi Everyone, In my past, I used to think that warm-ups were a waste of time. After doing a run or static stretch, my strength actually decreased slightly. Now, enough experts have told me about dynamic warm-ups, increasing range of motion, strength, muscular development, and endocrine-cardio...
  3. Can You Burn Fat From Stretching? Best Fat Burning Stretch of All Time?

    Critical Bench seems to promote a new workout every week. 1. They recommended one stretch to burn fat. It looks like a mountain climber, with that side rotating outward. Invalid Link Removed 2. Will this stretch actually burn fat, the way they say it will? I can see this stretch would be...
  4. Best Warm-Up Routines of All Time, to Use Every Single Day?

    Hi Everyone, I wanted some references to the best dynamic warm-ups, of all time, to use before each workout. 1. Personally, I used to be against warm-ups. If I did a few laps or the stationary bike. for a few minutes, before I lifted, I was always about 10% less strong. 2. However, this...
  5. Is There Anything More Intense Than Tabata Protocol? Any Research?

    1. I agree. Many people read magazines, such as EAS Muscle Media, and get into the hype. Invalid Link Removed The real science does not work that way. Hence, this is why I ask this topic, and appreciate real feedback from you guys. 2. I am aware of what you said about the study...
  6. Any Opinion on Will Brink's Hybrid Training Program?

    Thanks. I really appreciate your patience here. Some people would get impatient and flame me. I know, the gyms will open in the next month. I just want a program that works well. When I did the "Body for Life" maybe 15 years ago, I did it exactly, but it did not get me the results I wanted...
  7. What Role Does Walking Have in Bodybuilding? Hopefully, Nothing?

    Thanks, guys. I always thought walking was a waste of time, because intensity is low. Now, I realize it may not be the case at all. Yes, two hours a day dedicated to walking may be a lot, but with mobile devices that hold lots of music, audio files, even videos, etc. it may be a much...

  11. What Role Does Walking Have in Bodybuilding? Hopefully, Nothing?

    Thanks guys. 1. I fully agree with you. Especially walking or riding a bike outdoors can be a great way to move around and not be like a mouse or Gerbil on one of those stationary wheels. 2. It sounds like while lifting is essential, walking or bike riding can be done in nearly unlimited...
  12. What Role Does Walking Have in Bodybuilding? Hopefully, Nothing?

    Hello Everyone, These last two months, as my country has opened up, I am walking day and night with a mask. My watch pedometer almost always logs over 10,000 steps a day, sometimes even two or three times that. I know, for most people who speak about intensity, efficiency, etc. walking does...
  13. How Much Protein Do We Really NEED for Muscle Growth, Satiety, Etc.?

    @Cheeky Monkey I could see it either way. 1. Yes, your analogy of 1 gram per pound of lean body mass seems like a reasonable goal to shoot for. It should be sufficient to not be protein deficient. 2. However, even a 400 lb man, if he ate pure protein and was exercising hard, in theory could...

    Ages 16 - 18? I think I can train ten at once. They want basketball.
  15. Building a School Gym in China, From Scratch; What Stuff Needed?

    Hi Everyone, 1. I will work for a small school in China, maybe 30 students. 2. One of my tasks is to build a gym, from scratch. I just want the basic stuff to strengthen people who have not lifted before. 3. Can you guys recommend a list of essential stuff? Right now, I know I will need...
  16. How Much Protein Do We Really NEED for Muscle Growth, Satiety, Etc.?

    I have heard all these things. I guess I am being "finicky" as the dictionary would say: I want a mathematical, exact number to take away any anxiety I have over getting things wrong. In the past, I ate too many carbs and just got fat; or, I ate too much protein but too few carbs, and just...
  17. Have We Had Definitive Studies of Protein Requirements?

    Hi Everyone, I know we have had debates, etc. about protein requirements. Of key note is the difference between minimum effective dose, a satisfactory amount and maximum tolerable dose. For example, a 150 lb man who is not weight lifting could get by with 50 grams of protein if he is not...
