    Some guys just can't hold their beta alanine. What a waste -- and a biohazzard!

    I like it! Screw low-dose pins and needles. This should be more like pick axes and blasting caps.

    Really, it's optional. If you punch a few holes in the side of the bottle, you should have a great time-release product.

    That's gonna leave hardly any room up there for my beta alanine. Guess I'll have to switch to the BA suppositories.

  5. Steve

    In my other life, I'm Steve, but after reading this, I may have to have it legally changed. Also, it sounds like I may need a quickie annulment, to avoid legal complications with Mrs. Mesomorphin. She doesn't give a rat's a$$ when I ingest my creatine, but she's got strong opinions on...

  6. Why am I so much stronger with decline benchvs Flat.

    I knew a guy who went over the top (on one side) when re-racking. Wrecked the f*ck out of his shoulder, and was not back in the gym for a LONG time. If your incline has adjustable uprights, take advantage of them.

  7. Protein powder vs real food

    My body mass and protein intake are right in the same ballpark these days (sometimes used to go higher protein). I try to get most of it from food, but since I don't eat meat or fish, I do rely on at least one whey shake per day. The only exception is when I'm on travel/vacation, and then I...

  8. Why am I so much stronger with decline benchvs Flat.

    I think it's pretty common for folks to be able to put up more weight on decline than on flat. In some cases structural issues could be involved. In the aftermath of a significant shoulder injury that I should have fixed (but didn't), at one point I could do 415 for 1 on decline, while at the...

  9. Why Such High Doses Of Test With TRT?

    I also get mail order prescription for roughly a 90 day supply, but mine is 3 5 mL vials. According to the label, the vial should be discarded 28 days after first use, regardless of whether the contents have been used up, because some preservative agent is no longer effective after that time.

  10. Inguinal Hernia Help

    I went through it a couple of years ago. I cheated in the sense of getting back into the gym early (treadmill walking about day 3; fairly high intensity elliptical about day 5; weights about day 10 - though I think avoided leg work until about week 4). I just took everything easy, pyramiding...

  11. Does anyone know a good doctor specializing in Low T in the Baltimore area?

    I see an endocrinologist in Baltimore, but he's really conservative (didn't decide to go with TRT for me until I fell below 200 and stuck with topical gel until after two consecutive annual screenings showed levels around 300). Ultimately he agreed to switch me to test e injections after the...

  12. So after 8 months on TRT with difficult absorbtion

    I had similar issues with Androgel, but it took me a long time to convince my doc to give up on topics. Ultimately, I shifted to injections and it has proven much better for me. I have heard about the long term injection but I don't know what kind of feedback it has gotten, or if some folks...

  13. Beta Alanine and L-Taurine

    Saw the same studies. I go for 6g/day, usually in three separate doses. When I get too much at a single sitting, the prickly feeling gets pretty intense and it messes with my gastrointestinal tract.

  14. Beta Alanine and L-Taurine

    Oops. My auto-correct desperately wants to correct "pre"workout.

  15. Beta Alanine and L-Taurine

    When I use it, I take beta alanine on non workout days as well as on workout days. I usually divided my daily dose into 3 servings, mostly to cut down a bit on the intensity of the pins-and- needles feeling. As long as your intake is sufficient over time, I don't think it matters if it is all...

  16. Hernia

    It might depend on the severity, but in most cases working out should be fine. I worked out with an uncorrected inguinal hernia (fairly small) for a couple of years, without a problem. It affected my exercise selection a little: I could do leg presses as heavy as I wanted (north of 1000), but...

  17. First quad injection ever! Ouch

    Why not get a smaller gauge syringe? I recently started TRT injections of test ethanate. I ordered a supply of 23 gauge 1" on the internet. Even as a newbie to injection, I have had really easy, pain free quad injections. My 23 gauge syringes came within 2-3 days of my order, so you could...

  18. Self injection site preferences?

    I did OK with 23 gauge 1" at both quad and felt locations. Had some momentary discomfort on the last 1/4 inch in the delt, but it passed quickly. NO post- injection soreness for me at either of those locations.

  19. Calories in egg whites

    Agree. My liquid egg whites claim to contain "about" 10 egg whites and 50 g P. I spent years buying the biggest possible jumbo eggs, and they had 8 g P/egg - half of which would have been yolk. Unless, the liquid egg whites are coming from ostriches, there is no way they are getting 50 grams...

  20. Calories in egg whites

    Good question! Something is definitely off here. You'd think they would be required to report additives. My guess is that they either got the grams P/carton wrong or the calories.
