  • https://pb2foods.com/ It’s essentially everything in a peanut but the fat. You can reconstitute it to make a paste, or add it into things. (I use the original formula)
  • 🤷‍♂️I have almost the opposite response. I can drink a Coke Zero when I’m feeling a little hungry and it can tide me over to my next meal.
  • You can make a bunch of stuff like ice cream from milk, protein powder and frozen fruit. Just use the fruit as the ice in a blender. With the right combo, it ends up like soft serve. Berries are my favorite to use with vanilla, but frozen banana (sometimes withPB2) goes well with chocolate.
  • I make oatmeal using a “shake” with like 3-4 servings of PB2 and a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream Optimum Nutrition Whey shaken into about 8 oz of liquid as the water for my instant oatmeal. The taste doesn’t require anything else since the vanilla powder kinda just ads some base sweetness and that’s like 40-50 grams of…
  • Yeah, I would hope a lot of that is hashed in the full text and this isn't another "higher red meat intake associated with a lot of other risk factors for chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes". Also, just in the abstract, I find full fat hamburger meat, and thus red meat from most "fast food", being counted as…
  • yesterday: 3x working sets of back squats. Kinda played with whether high bar or low bar felt better (lowbar by a mile, so back to those it is) 3x15 seated leg curls 3x15 leg extensions Now I can spend the rest of the week on workouts I enjoy...lol.
  • Shoehorned my push/pull days into one. 2x10 incline barbell press 2x8 strict pull-ups 2 supersets each of flys into unweighted dips and lat prayers into machine rows.
  • Prior post was yesterday. In an interrupted session in home gym I was able to get in 1 working set of deadlifts (I did 3x’s at like 50 lb increments, so some volume too). Then 3x10 superset of leg extensions and leg curls. Planned to go a set of squats to (near) failure after my last extension set, but life got in the way.
  • push day 3x10 incline dumbbell press 3x15 Flys 2x10 weighted dips 2x12/1x failure seated skull crushers (machine) Last set there was supersetted with a set of unweighted dips to failure
  • back day. 3x10 pendlay rows 3x superset of Lat Prayers (standing pullovers) Palm facing close grip lat pulldowns Went till form broke on the lat prayers (usually when I start feeling my triceps try to help) Goal was a weight I could do 10ish reps with the pulldowns with my lats exhausted, so much less than I either pullup…
  • Did a workout with my 7th grade son. I did 3 warmup sets on squat (including one significantly heavier than my working set). Then I did one working super set of leg extensions to failure immediately into a set of squats. Then I did 3x12 of extensions and seated leg curls . Kiddo’s workout was as follows: 3x10 barbell…
  • I owe a lot of my weight when I was younger to Doritos, and Quest makes a product for that now… 😂the cost more than the calories keeps me in check on those. I prolly overeat nuts and peanut butter too bad, so I shy away from them now. I do add PB2 to my protein shakes to give me a PB kick tho.
  • I think we've long known that it would cause a major ****show for the American food supply chain and grocers if people actually decided to eat healthy.
  • Push day 3x10 incline press 2x15 machine flys 2x10 weighted dips 3x15 seated skullcrushers 1x failure body weight dips done immediately after skullcrushers
  • I believe in the literature the diet I follow is considered a non-ketogenic low carbohydrate diet.
  • Had some physical days at my job. Shoehorned my push/pull workouts into one and went light. 7ish RIR on everything 2x10 standing OHP 2x10 Pendlay rows 2x 10 machine/cable chest presses done as far down as I felt comfortable (so past chest a bit at bottom) 2x10 lat pull-down 2x10 superset with leg extensions and leg curls
  • Push day. 3x10 barbell incline press 2x10 weighted dips 3x12 machine flys 3x15 reverse curls 1x failure seated skullcrushers superset with body weight dips.
  • 1 set overhand pull-ups 3 sets underhand pull-ups 2x supersets of Pendlay Rows x standing pullovers x seated chest supported rows 3x leg extensions 3x seated leg curls
  • Chest/shoulders/arms today 3x10 barbell incline press 3x12 cable lateral raises 3x10 weighted dips 2x superset of bicep curls and seated skullcrushers
  • @nossmf my legs are easily my best body part. I’m doing that workout that way so I can do less on the squat and still work at failure and get in and out quickly. I do 3x sets on leg extensions and leg curls on one of my back days most weeks to add some volume (so I get legs 2 days each week). Honestly my legs aren’t my…
  • Short but sweet and brutal on leg day. Did warmups on squats then did a superset of 3 exercises: Leg extensions to failure (15 ended up being the number) High bar backsquats with my heels on 5 lb weights until (assumed) failure (12 actual reps) Then immediately into seated leg curls until failure (12) (same weight I used…
  • I say yes...I like using a lot of food products designed for keto even though I wouldn't eat that way myself. Also, a lot of keto products are awesome for folks doing Atkins. Funny how that works...
  • Push session for me. 2x10 incline press with a 3rd set done at lighter weight with long(er) pauses at the bottom. First 2 sets done with a 1-2 sec pause at the bottom. 2x15 machine flys 2x12 dips 2x15 one arm cable reverse flys 2x15 one arm cable lateral raises 1x failure seated cable skullcrushers supersetted with 1x…
  • Changed up my chest routine so did a more “volume” day. 3x10 incline barbell press. Newly reintroduced, so took it fairly easy. Did the last set -20 lbs and with a 2 sec pause at the bottom. 3x12 dips. I’m probably around 20ish for a max if I did a set fresh, and I’m pretty happy with that. I’ve been working around a bad…
  • Never used the app, but RP is an amazing youtube channel. I would assume if they're building workouts similar to what their workout vids are like (toned down for us mere mortals of course) that it's pretty good.
  • Pendlay Rows x Standing Pullovers x Neutral Grip Machine rows done in a superset. 2 sets, reps to failure each time on each exercise. Next did warmups on squats followed by one superset of Leg extensions immediately followed by squats until I felt my form about to break. In and out in 30 mins…
  • Push session. OHP. 1 working set to failure Tried a new variation of flys on my Hoist V4. Did 2x12, 1x failure. Pretty light weight to make sure I felt it properly. Dips 2xFailure (and in a totally reverse problem from what I feel with my lats, dips are almost 100% chest for me. I had been doing these after I pre-exhausted…
  • @nossmf I'll definitely give that a shot when I do lat pulls/pullups next. @AnnPT77 yeah, I'm definitely thinking of trying to feel the exercises where I want them to target. I under trained my mid back and lats for years in my training. All through HS our workouts were essentially: Bench, Squat, Cleans, OHP/high incline…
  • Love the multi-use power rack having a smith machine. It was something I didn't push for in mine, but wish I had now.
