    Also, in the UK these are Long John's

    I wouldn't like to consider what a 'filled' long john would be!

    Hey, that's what I thought they were too, and I'm not in the UK!

    Yeah, me too. So what is this Long John thing that you eat? Is it a type of pastry or donut?
    ETA: Oh, I see the pic above. Looks diabolical. :devil:

    I think I'll stick two giant turkey legs on the chest press. Each time I bring the weights back, I can take a bite.

    Steak on a rope on the treadmill, perhaps?

    Yard long pepperoni sticks would solve the treadmill dilema

    I sometimes don't even eat RIGHT after my workout. I eat maybe 1 or 2 hours later...and that's doing fasted training on top of not eating right away! So I am going HOURS without food.

    Still..I haven't died yet. Still..my muscle hasn't disappeared.

    In fact...I am making all kinds of GAINZ!!!!!!!!!!!

    ok,, going to gym now. Haven''t eaten for about 12 hours. I hope I don't fall out and my muscle start to shrivel away since I probably won't eat till about..NOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I usually just bring my hibachi grill and cook up some ribs while I'm doing my first couple sets. When I first started, I had to eat them while still on the rare side, but now I can make it all the way up to medium-well.

    Just Choked on my coffee!!!! :)

    I always KNEW I was doing it right when I brought a turkey dinner on the treadmill!

    Those hard workouts on the treadmill doing 2.5 miles per hour in a 1.5 incline really get me hungry.

    Starvation mode is true people. There are people dropping every minute as they have been either fasting or waiting too long to eat after a workout. You must eat during your workout to avoid this unfortunate condition. I would recommend taking a 3 course meal into the weights room with you. Starter following your warm up, main course mid workout and some cake following your cool down. Too many people are suffering and further pain must be avoided at all costs.

    One gym has decided to set up a food stall next to the squat rack following the death of 3 starvation mode athletes in the last 8 days. Hungry athletes were tucking into chicken curries, pastas and bagels between sets.

    Be careful people don't say I didn't warn you!!!

    :)

    Another expert heard from..... :huh: I think you should truly look into what starvation mode is.... and this isn't it. Waiting too long to eat and getting light headed (and even passing out) has more to do with low blood sugar levels. True starvation mode does exist but what you're describing isn't that.

    I always do my push ups down to a protein bar and take a bite before pushing back up! I don't want to go into starvation mode!

    During cardio nutrition is key!

    And what exactly is the problem there? Apart from the fact that I didn't think of doing it!

    The only thing I see wrong is, that she is on a recumbent bike...

    Why don't you eat 800 calories a day and get more ripped?
    Yeah, that's the way to do it for sure! I think there's a thread for that....... "800 calories and I'm RIPPED!"

    I'm going to find a way to use "tucking in" every day from now on.

    me too, love that!

    and I cant remember the last time I ate a Krispy Kreme which is just sad... :sad:
