[Q?] Weight lifting with a mouthpiece
So I've been looking into maybe purchasing one of those "lifting" mouthpieces for the past couple days (note that I did not write mouthguard. If you don't know the difference, you probably can't help me anyway. But thanks for checking in!) Before I get a bunch of "the claims from xxx about improved performance are complete…

Hey all! I've been lurking for a bit since I registered for "ultime bouette" (ultimate mud? Ha) here in Québec and tomorrow is the D day. I've been training for it for a few months now but I'm still not sure i'll get through half of the obstacles. But no matter what, I'll do what I can! I do have one question that may seem…

Eggs/Egg whites: how to make them taste... less?
I've looked around a bit and didn't really find much on this particular topic. See, the taste of eggs generally makes me gag. I can't do omelettes, and it's all I can muster to cook ,em up with a little sal tand put them in a sandwich with mayo, bacon and eggs. I still get a bit of ugh through every bites, but I can finish…

February workout check-in thread
I figured I'd start the ball since it seems no one else has it rolling yet! Workout A today Squats 140x5x5 The very last rep om the last set was tough, but not *that* grindy this go-round, so I feel confident going to 145 :) Progress. FINALLY!

Get rid of the Acesulfame Potassium (Ace-K) aftertaste?
Maybe I'm a weird person, but whenever I end up ingesting Ace-K (through prewrokouts or calorie free drink mixes or protein powder) I get this horrible, overly sweet, saliva "aftertaste" and more often than not, it will last me the whole.

Has anyone read the book specifically for women?
Not that I'm going to switch, I got great results from the original program and I'm currently doing a slightly modified first class run, but I'm curious whether there is anything new in that book that would be interesting to read :)

Perpetual Hunger?
Before any of you tell me to go see a doctor: I will be scheduling an appointment soon and mentioning this to mine when I go. I just figured I'd ask around, see if anyone is dealing with something similar in the mean time, because it's getting annoying (and it's been going on for a good long while). I'm just always hungry.…
