Don't let Deez Nuts stay hidden...
so apparently a thread can freeze at a certain time, even if on a legitimate and interesting topic such as the 2016 presidential race, so people can continue to post, but the most recent post stays locked at whatever time it was frozen and the posts continue to be buried? No flags at all, so i don't quite understand how…

Alcohol calories and fat loss?
i've heard alcohol calories digest differently? do you think if i skipped a few meals and only had lite beer or vodka and diet as sort of a modified fast i would burn more stored fat because of the associated reduced insulin response and increased lipolytic response, which reduces the reabsorption of free fatty acids while…

Calf/Foot Cramps ?
okay so last night i had calf and foot cramps so bad they kept me up all night. This am, my calves feel like they are strained, especially the left one, and its focused around where the most intense cramps were. Did i actually strain muscles from cramping up, or will this go away soon? And any suggestions as to cause…

MyFitnessParent ?!?
Anyone feel like the forums are becoming more and more moderated and censored, especially with this new flag someone as a game going on? "I don't agree with the link this person posted, flag it as spam!" I mean everyone on the site is an adult, i think the excessive moderation is going a bit too far. I've gotten more flags…

Guide to making claims based on experience
Since everyone is here for advice and support on whatever their weight or body composition goals are, i feel it very important to know about actual real life instances and what may or may not have worked for people. If there was not a scientific study done on how you were successful, it's totally okay to provide an opinion…

Muscle Glycogen Stores and Weight Loss
Okay, so in my various readings i have come across the information that fasted endurance training can increase the muscle's ability to store glycogen, especially when in a low carb setting. I was doing once/twice weekly 3hr fasted cycling for over a month and carb cycling. Took a week off ate a lot drank a lot, put on…

Thoughts on PSMF?
Anybody ever done a short Protein-Sparing Modified Fast and gotten good results? i'm feeling a little extra bloated and huge after a 1 week gain of 15lbs eating a ton of crap, candy, bacon, and beer...wanted to do a little quick reversing on that number. Im considering a PSMF for the next two days, but wondering if the…

Cycling and leg cramps...
i've recently (last 2 months) begun cycling a little more regularly, and trying to increase my distance. A few weeks ago i started cramping really bad on the hardest ride i had ever done...there was a 12 mile stretch in the middle (42 mile ride) where 7 of us were taking turns leading in a 20-25mph headwind with an avg…

DOMS and leg days
Okay so whenever i have a leg day, i get stiffness/pain/DOMS so bad i can barely walk for the next couple days. I'm not new to lifitng by any means, and it seems i only get DOMS this severe in my legs, and it happens after every leg day. Any thoughts on why my legs seem soooo susceptible to DOMS and what i might be able to…

The weight yo-yo
Time and time again, up and down up and down. a little over 3 years since i started this and after looking at my my weight fluctuations, i don't ever see maintenance, just up and down. At least it comes off, just wish it was as easy to lose as it is to put on. One thing i do notice, the less i check the scale, the more the…

Let's play guess the weight gain...

Almost 7000 cals of alcohol, oh i love it! For those of you that think this is just a fantasy diary, take a look at my previous…

1 Day of Going Over Calories A LOT
So i was logging all the food i planned on eating today between football and nascar, and the calories were pretty high. I've heard before that overeating takes a few days of consistent high calories to make a difference, and 1 day of excess calories wont all go to fat stores some will essentially just pass right through as…

Deficit through activity or food?
Okay, thought i would throw this out to the forum, get some thoughts and opinions, as i was wondering about this today... To create a large deficit in calories for a day, say 2600, and not an everyday thing but like once a week, would it be better to eat less, say 1400 calories, and aim for a 4000 cal daily burn (as per…
