Anything with Grant Cardone, Frank Kern, or Russell Brunson.

I have the opposite situation... I hit my fats less than half the time. Here's from a weightlifting day (two days ago) when I intend to eat a few extra calories. Here's from yesterday, a non-weightlifting day. Maybe you just need to eat leaner meats. I'm all about boneless skinless chicken breast or tilapia... always…

- I focus on the muscle I'm trying to hit. - I wonder if I'll be able to get out the last few reps without stopping for a second first when I'm really burning. - On the last rep I'm thinking, "just a couple more."

That was a lot of reading and I didn't do it, so I'm responding to the headline... If you overeat one day spread the difference over the next week or so and eat fewer calories (maybe 50-100 calories a day) for the week, or just workout more to burn it off faster. It happens when ppl are working on bettering themselves.…

I was doing keto for a few months and I loved it. I lost like 70 pounds during that time. I would honestly still be on it but I am transitioning over to re-composition while it's likely to work for me and then shifting my main focus to bodybuilding. Most of what I have read is ppl swearing you need plenty of carbs to build…

Depends on your diet. Like I pretty much only eat either boneless skinless grilled chicken breast or grilled tilapia with rice and a little avocado oil to get the fats in, so for me I pretty much need a multivitamin. I also keep potassium on hand because if I get dehydrated, or consume a lot of salt or caffeine it quickly…

One of my favorites!

that looks pretty interesting.

You lost 12 lbs in one week? Am I reading that right? :o

No by all means challenge it, but I disagree with what you said. I find it far more disrespectful and ridiculous to just say nothing to someone who is killing themselves with bad choices. And ppl dont deserve respect just because. Respect is earned. By your standard the most evil people in history that committed all kinds…

Oh give me a break.

Fat acceptance is just one more way for ppl today to take even less responsibility for their actions. I appreciate the fat shaming I've received over my life because it just became more fuel for the fire of trying to fix it. Im for fat shaming (in moderation) and against fat acceptance (almost completely with the exception…

Maybe once or twice a month. I used to do it several times a week, but the fluctuations were discouraging. Weighing only once or twice a month I always register a loss on the scale.

But then you have things like this "Leucine Regulates Translation Initiation of Protein Synthesis in Skeletal Muscle after Exercise" in the Oxford Academic Journal of Nutrition saying something that seems to contradict that. So, ignoring that and just going off of what you were posting, in the presence of the other EAA's…

ok?? thanks I guess...

I've been here and elsewhere and I gotta say bodybuilding.com is better in my opinion than this site. I've been here for about a year on different profiles and honestly this place seems like more trouble than it's worth. I doubt I'll be here for much longer. More than anything you get into arguments here, not discussions,…

No one is claiming it will make you hulk up overnight, but I see source after source after source saying that supplementing with Leucine does lead to increased hypertrophy for a short period after taking it. I may be mistaken but I don't recall seeing anywhere that it only works if there is a protein deficiency. So, I…

At one point I was telling myself "food is not for enjoyment it is for nutrition and the less I like it the better." But it wasn't phrases that got me to the point where I often have to set reminder to eat all meals planned for the day or I won't end up eating all I'm supposed to.

Don't give up. It doesn't matter if it's going as you'd like right now, it's a lifestyle change, not a temporary fix. So if you start losing and then it freezes up on you or you gain a pound here and there while losing would you quit then? If you're truly doing all of that and it's not working, see a doctor... but don't…

Not sure you've done enough reading on it. This is pretty common and readily available info. Most sources will warn you about the "keto flu" and what to do about it. I'm all for Keto or whatever gets ppl to their goals, but this one can lead to some deficiencies so be careful.

Sitting right in front of my computer

Why re-open this? I doubt it will go much better the 2nd time around.

Same here with the heart palpitations, but I'd also get charlie horses. I found out what the problem was... for some reason caffeinated stuff seems to really suck the potassium outta me. If I consume extra potassium it goes away. I was freakin out the first time I got heart palpitations. thought I was gonna have a heart…
