I make a nice thick protein shake with about 200ml of low-fat yogurt, 6-8 oz of skim milk, a little water and ice and a scoop and a half of ON 100% whey... I grab a stogey, light up and watch a movie. I drink the shake over the course of the movie and I couldn't even imagine eating anything else the rest of the night when…

How well you go with frog's legs...

Hershey's Chocolate Syrup, whip cream and peanut butter.

This.

Almost none if you eat clean and stay marginally active (walking in the park, bike riding, etc.). Expect some muscle atrophy after about two weeks. I think that's the max I would take off, but that's based on my fitness goal of maintaining maximum muscle during fat loss.

Why, thank you...

Why not have high-carb syrup and throw out the french toast? That's my solution. I feel like we are being trolled by this OP.

I don't understand how any one gets pumped on music that lacks screaming, guitar with a lot of distortion, and lyrics that make you want to tear the head off of kittens... That being said... A7X - Critical Acclaim Bullet for my Valentine - Welcome Home Clean In Flames - Trigger

Honestly, I'm going to disagree with the majority of posts. An Olympic bar is used for a lot of compound exercises such as bench press (requires bench), squats (helpful to have a rack), cleans and jerks (both I would not recommend with heavy weight unless you have had professional coaching), shoulder presses, etc. You…

I mix with any or all of the following cottage cheese eggs (whites and yokes) Kidney beans Chick Peas Chipotle Tabasco sauce Chicken breast

A few possibilities, and I won't pretend to know the complete answer, but: As you enter a caloric deficit especially when your diet is consisted of healthy carbohydrates at a minimal level you lose quite a lot of water weight very quickly. For every gram glycogen stored in your muscles, your body stores an additional 3…

Awesome, great job!!

Yes, fruit made me fat, and I blame knife I cut it with for helping out.

It's called moderation, people. Eat what you want, just not all of it you want.

I'll go over by 50 calories or 100 calories a couple times a week. No big deal. I'll definitely do a refeed once a week where I eat at or slightly above maintenance levels. Friday morning brunch is going to be killer.

My pleasure. And you have the right idea: Do your research. But make sure you read full studies. Anything other than information straight from the source likely has an agenda, whether it is to sell magazines or support a political cause. They all cite research, but they only do it in bits and pieces that support their…

Because you want to pay a lot of extra money to fit in with the rich neighbors who shop at Farm Fresh. Honestly, I'd go organic if it was a reasonably priced option. However, the health benefits of eating organic do not outweigh the cost. Don't let green peace and your "everything causes cancer" conspiracy theorists tell…

You can! Stick with it!

Don't look at the scale. Look in the mirror. Do you see results? Good. Who cares about the numbers. They will drag you down. Weight fluctuates day to day. If you want it, if you work for it, you will achieve it. Numbers are instant gratification, and instant gratification is why most people are fat. Live with out it. Make…

With out reading the other replies, my answer is lack of knowledge and information in the gym. They think heavy weight will make them look like men, and that walking on the treadmill for 90 minutes at 60% max heart rate is the key to fat loss. If you want to see what the women who REALLY work out look like, watch this…

No offense brother, but your doctor is not a nutritionist or bio-chemist and you should never ask a general practitioner about diet and fitness specific questions. They simply are no more educated than you or I on the subject. Eating small meals does not increase your metabolism. This is a fitness myth that has become a…

Counting calories is, for most people, simply a method that works psychologically in keeping on track with goals. That being said, the only true way to a healthy and fit lifestyle is through personal choice. Whether you use portion control, calorie counting or habitually eat the same foods at the same time, it all comes…

Hi Krish, Those "Last 10" are typically no harder than the first 10. There are several reasons fat loss can and will slow down. Some of those are within your ability to control and others are not. Usually, the biggest road block is yourself. Months on end of restricted calorie intake can become drudgery, especially for…

This is what I like to call "Bro Science". It only makes sense if you don't know the facts or read the studies. a.) Solid food takes 40-50 hours to pass through the both the large and small intestines where nutrient uptake occurs. That being said, even on a 12 hour fast (that's a lot of sleep), your body is still getting a…

This is correct information. Protein powder is only useful as a tool to hit your daily macros. "anabolic windows" and "fast digesting whey for protein synthesis" are marketing tools to get you to buy expensive supplements. If you want citation on that, send me a message and I will provide. That being said, for me…

I agree. Luckily all of those topics have studies posted on issn and jissn, etc. But I agree, it's always good to use citation.

Great book. I'm kind of ashamed to show it in public, being that it is covered in hearts and flowers. Doesn't really go with my macho facade. Anyway, touch and words of affirmation.

If you eat clean, healthy macros and exercise you will get ripped, period. The higher the muscle to fat ratio is, the more definition you will have. That doesn't just apply to those who lift weights. It applies to anyone who uses their muscles in any way in conjunction with a healthy diet. If you want to just get thinner…

Agreed. Clicked on this expecting total bull****. It turned out to be a voice of reason in a forum that seems to lack any reality. There is a lot "science" out there that Men's Health, Shape Magazine and every fitness website on the planet feed to countless nimwits willing to believe everything they read without doing the…
