  • Its not really a diet for me.. its my life style. I eat like clock work. Protein shake at 4:15am before the gym ... Protein shake after the gym at 6:15 breakfeast at 8:30am, second breakfast at 10:30am, lunch at 12:30-1, protein shake at 3:30, dinner around 6, and another protein shake at 8:15-8:30, 6 -7 days a week,…
  • Amen to that struggle... i know the feeling. For me it took alot of soul searching. Trying to figure out why i wanted to eat even if i wasnt hungry. And i still slip up from time to time, and see a plate of cookies and think i "need" one of those, and of course i justify it in my head that i need it to, but at the end of…
  • Are you looking for anything in particular... I mean so say protein powder, but there a bunch of choices there. Soy protein, whey protein, Casein protein, "meat" based or paleo proteins, and even some other vegetable proteins that I can think of off the top of my head. Are you looking to use it to supplement and help with…
  • I tired the whole take a bite put my fork down... doesn't really work for me, because i can do that for about the first 5 bites then i get distracted again, so for me the easiest thing is portion control. I just get a set amount of food, and thats it, if i want to scarf it I scarf it, but i dont eat anymore.... Im sure…
  • BroScience, is awesome. Its advice, tips, information you get from your BROs ... opinions and thoughts on different suppliments. Ideas on workouts to try, or different ways to work muscle groups. Yes alot of it can be fluffed up crap, but at the end of the day, its just alot of information from people that have been there,…
  • Configuration Control and Planning Analyst aka IT Nerd, with a 450 lb 1 rep max squat, 550 lb 1 rep dead lift, 305 lb 1 rep bench press... annnnd i'm a Console gamer who plays paintball. NERD For the WIN.
  • Carnivor is a beef based protein, I have never tried but a few guys were actually talking about at the gym this morning, they said for the most part the taste isnt bad, but it has a little bit of a meat smell to it even though its chocolate flavored.
  • Oh my bad, didn't read the oven part, im pretty sure you could make this and microwave it, i mean it wont cook the same because its not oven baked, but you could probably microwave the zucchini individually first, so they dry out a little and heat up, then add the sauce and cheese and cook the whole thing fro like 5…
  • http://www.skinnytaste.com/2009/02/zucchini-lasagna.html Made this before its actually real good and a serving is only 345 calories. So that leaves a good bit for the other two courses.
  • Not sure why no ones guessed the last one... Good will hunting
  • http://www.aworkoutroutine.com/how-much-muscle-can-you-gain/ This is a good article to answer your question.
  • If you run and then lift you arent putting enough energy into your lifting, and if you lift and then run, you didnt put enough energy into your lifting ... Just my opinion :D
  • You are taking control of your life, every second you spend working out you are paying back to yourself, no one else has control over it, no one else directly benefits from it but you. So why not take care of you and give yourself everything you have. Every good food decision you make you are adding to the exercise that…
  • The weight room is my happy place, I go there as often as I can... and not blow my gains that is :D
  • What realistic for you ... "eating clean" is all well and good but it takes a lot of meal planning a lot of precooking, and portioning if you really want to eat clean, but like Alongcame_molly said, eating clean is kind of myth. Because unless you grow all your own vegetables, slaughter your own meat, and have your own…
  • WEIGHTS for the win... Heavy Heavy Lifting ... oh wait that is what I do now :D
  • I lift weights 7 days a week, do very little cardio, take enough supplements to kill a small elephant, and until about a week ago was eating 50/30/20 Protein fat carbs, now im eating 40/30/30 but very little processed food (outside of supplements) and did paleo for a while, if any of that seems like something you might…
  • Diablo III which is AWWWWWEEESOME ... and BF4, which is awesome, but the lack of que'ing is a giant SAD FACE in my book.
  • http://www.aworkoutroutine.com/how-much-muscle-can-you-gain/ This is a good article, i mean the science is there but everyone's different. For the guy that talks about how he went from benching 35lb dumbbells to benching 110lb dumbbells, building muscle and gaining strength aren't the same thing.
  • And now your story fades into credits, and we all sit there waiting for the sequel. Being healthy isn't a race, there is no goal there is no finish line. Congrats on making it to this point, but now you have to maintain, or redefine what you want for yourself. Is 135 it, and if so then maintenance it is, but like other…
  • Look at my diary, i eat a 60/30/20 Carbs, fat, to protein, give you some ideas. Also try to avoid soy. Soy has alot of protein but it also has a lot of estrogen, which men don't need. And if you don't like your protein shake find a better one, or add some PB2 (powdered peanut butter to it, extra calories and protein).…
  • If you could be your "ideal" size and the scale never moved would it matter. Nope, so why fixate on a number. You are 4-5 sizes smaller that is a huge accomplishment. Just because the scale hasn't moved doesn't mean you didn't put in work, doesn't mean you aren't healthier, it doesn't mean you haven't accomplished a really…
  • What they have said above, the bar should sit fruther down your shoulders, it doesn't rest on the back of your neck, that's just the most comfortable for now. Not the best example because this guy is a BEAST, but he no hand squats, so it kind of shows you were the bar would go. And the only other thing i really noticed is…
  • Foot Long Turkey on wheat, with American Cheese, Toasted With Lettuce, Onions, Spinach, Cucumbers, Salt & Pepper and Honey Mustard. (That is my usual order its good)
  • Open and log daily, add if you would like... SW: 382 CW: 240 GW: Just gonna keep on keeping on, healthy doesn't really have a number.
  • The balance you would need is based on what are you looking for in results, what is your exercise level? Are you looking to building muscle, are you looking to loss fat. I mean it would all have different macros, and macros arent a 100% proven science, Just kind of a best guess estimate as to what the results should be.…
  • I have to eat them back, If i didn't I would only get like 700-1000 Calories a day, I mean right now I eat between 2500-3000+ a day so that I can net around 1400. I have chosen to live that life though, I enjoy being in the gym 6 days a week, working hard and getting results, so spending all day Sunday preparing and…
  • What are you hoping to accomplish? How much protein are you trying to take in, in a day? Do you have any food allergies? Do you lift? How often do you work out? Sorry for all the questions but they will help me make a much more informed opinion then just yelling out types of proteins.
