A fast-absorbing protein that’s high in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), particularly leucine, will maximally stimulate pathways that activate muscle…
Hello all my Mfp friends, I was wondering if you guys exercise everyday, or do you take days off to rest your body? I see a notice posted at the gym to rest a day after working on core strengh routines and was curious about this. Any advise?

Everyone please welcome Ranimalove to the community. I came across her being bullied in the public forums and she was so discouraged that she was going to quit using MFP. Please show how supporting a good group of e-friends can be! We're all on similar journeys here and there is no room for negativity or bullying along the…
that doesn't pile up the calories.... we all know chicken breast is a great source of protein, only problem is it taste bland if cooked bodybuilding style... steam that is, so the purpose of this thread is to take out the gourmet chef in each and everyone of you to post your recipe on how you cook your chicken breast…
