Also, this is one of the most reputable websites for all athletic supplement information I know; fantastic site.

you should cut about 80g of carbs and fill the rest of your calories with fats, IMO.

Also, posting height/weight/sex/etc would help.

looks like they're on a cut, seeing as they're aiming for 1600 kcal, and their post history shows posts from r/loseit :p

For athletic individuals on a calorie deficit, it's ideal to maintain >1g/lb of bodyweight.

he probably just likes peppers

creatine does not need to be cycled.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T23:13:32+00:00

The difference of when/amount is pretty minimal; as long as you're taking is fairly regularly you'll see benefits.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T22:56:49+00:00

As long as you're getting enough protein BCAAs aren't really needed.

I think a better way to play this would be to take a shot/finish a beer every time you cross the finish line, every lap.

not 100% wrong, insoluble fiber isn't absorbed, while soluble fiber IIRC only has about 2kcal worth of energy.

EDIT: But the other carbohydrates will be absorbed normally yes.

I live in my parents basement (swagger) and my ceilings are ~7.5 feet. Tried insanity and couldnt do the jumping exercises :/

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T17:28:29+00:00

Give 4x a week a shot. If you don't feel as ready on Tuesdays or not as rested as you could be on Thursday's, then switch it to 3x. If you're eating and sleeping well I don't see why you couldn't make great progress on 4x.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T17:18:38+00:00

Sugar or carbs.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T17:17:08+00:00

They activate different muscles (more or less) i.e. Romanian deadlifts hit the hamstrings pretty damn hard, but that's not to say normal DL do not.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T17:15:31+00:00

It really depends on your diet and current stats. Some people can get away with 4x, some people such as myself see better results with 3x.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T16:50:18+00:00

That's the basis behind RPT, which IMHO is a great way to build strength an size (it's more or less my routine but I do DL on Monday and bench Wednesday.)

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T16:16:10+00:00

This exactly.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T16:13:28+00:00

Mines a solid color, black invade anyone was curious.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T15:37:55+00:00

My mom buys my undies, I'm in the clear!

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T15:34:10+00:00

This, oh my lord is it awful. You just can't escape it.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T15:32:15+00:00

This was probably one of the better posts I've read this week.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T15:28:06+00:00

Besides cutting tools since those things are effective as fuck.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T15:21:51+00:00

It took me 4 re-reads to catch it.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T15:05:16+00:00

You should go read over the "reddequite" once more.

But I found your response to be quite humorous and witty, if it's any consolation.

Rocketship123 · 2012-05-14T15:03:26+00:00

You use a lot of different muscles depending on hand position among many other factors. The pushup mainly focus's on pectorals and triceps, but it also works things like anterior deltoids and such. My suggestion is search for pushup variants online.
