Dr. Sullivan does it again
Had to share his latest video this time on eggs. The first two minutes are hilarious before he gets to the science. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8oiSke0ZQw

Moving off SS to... this?
Once this "eat more to get over stalling" fails - c'mon, every session gains can't go on forever! - I'll need to move to an intermediate program. What do you think of this as a six-day-a-week program? What would you change? Legs / Push / Pull split Protocol: Add 2.5 lbs per major lift on maximal days, add 2.5 lbs per week…

Runtastic makes no sense
Today's cardio: 3.34 miles in 50 minutes. Set Runtastic to walking as type: 223 Calories. Set Runtastic to treadmill as type: 508 Calories. Any explanation?

Reset, restart, and I've been doing Starting Strength (SS) for a bit over a month now and just have my first stalled progress - on both squats and overhead press in the same session with a…

Routine check?
Does this routine make any sense for someone just getting out of "untrained" categories on strstd.com? >All are 3x5 unless otherwise indicated >Warmup set 1: 0.50 working weight x 6 >Warmup set 2: 0.75 working weight x 5 >Deload 10% when rep do not advance for three consecutive sessions >Cardio via backpacking weekdays for…

Losing weight and lifts stalling out
Not sure what's going on for the past few weeks. I've moved to a ABxABxx 3x5 lifting cycle, thus: A: Lowbar squat, deadlift (1x5), weighted crunches B: Bench press, overhead press, bent over row, lat pulldown Lower body is still ramping up even four months in as squats and deads keep going ever-upwards. However, the bench…
