That's an idiotic statement. And your diet is terrible to boot.Originally Posted by TheTrapezeSwinger

Eggs do contain a type of cholesterol found in many foods, calleddietary cholesterol. Eggs, liver, kidneys and prawns are higher indietary cholesterol than other foods. But the cholesterol we get fromour food has much less effect on the level of cholesterol in our bloodthan the amount of saturated fat we eat.

The Harvard School of Public Health's research showed the dietarycholesterol in eggs does not have a negative effect on bloodcholesterol levels of healthy people. This and numerous other studieshave shown there is no link between eating eggs and a higher risk ofheart disease or stroke for healthy adults. Some recent studies haveeven shown that HDL (good) cholesterol increased when people ate anegg-supplemented diet. http://www.canada.com/top...3-42dc-9085-1c3d04c91591

What suggestions do you have?
I can work out 2-3days per week.
I was on a good role last year but I peaked at 15pounds, and in the mist of it all I hurt my knee so I went back up in weight due to the lack of exercise.
During the time I was on a role I would go to the gym 5x a week and stayed there for at least 2hours.

I'm thinking that the last thing you want to do is get injured while lifting.
I'm a big fan of the 5-rep system for the big three. It's just that the number one rule of lifting is always always always form > weight.
Same here.
More 5/6 reps for compound lifts is kind of foolish imo.
Of course form is important but when you're lifting heavy consistently injuries are going to come now and again. Just last week I was doing platform deadlifts and on my last set, 5th rep I felt a pop/ stretching in my lower back. All of a sudden I though "oh +##%, here we go again"Turns out it was a glute strain and not a back strain so I got very lucky this time. It's been 8 days and I (think) I'm near full recovery. If it was a back strain it'd take at least 6 weeks to fully recover.
I would say if (you think) you're lifting heavy and you're not sustaining injuries here and there (both big and small) then you're def. not lifting that heavy (relative to your capabilities). The most important thing is knowing how to deal with certain injuries and work around them as well as letting the effected area fully recover.
you od with that. I do those for like two minute intervals u be on some "yeah i just do it for half a day til i get tired"Originally Posted by TheGrimm
i've been BLASTING my abs with the OG ab wheel...stuff works wonders i tells ya
I dont believe that line for a second. Dietary cholesterol will lead to increased blood cholesterol.Originally Posted by Durden7

cosign with durden. I don't need scientific proof to validate what I have seen in my family for quite some time. I had uncles who ate whole eggs and other cholesterol ridden foods for breakfast in the morning then go to their construction jobs and my aunts would pack them a good lunch, split pea soup, roti, tea and not eat for the rest of the day and come home and have a regular sized dinner. Dudes did not smoke and they still caught heart attacks. I'm telling you that if you proceed to eat the same thing for years, that cholesterol is going to build up. Why do you think that doctors tell heart attack patients to cut down on cholesterol like in eggs? It's just common sense. You don't wanna get fat so you lay off of foods with high fat content, right? you don't want to get high cholesterol so what do you have to do?Originally Posted by GrimlocK

With things like this its always important to read all the words. It happens all the time with anything scientific. Words are hidden or most people just dont read them. If someone eats a large amount of dietary cholesterol it will end up being bad blood cholesterol. There isnt an acute effect, but there certainly is a chronic effect of eating a high cholesterol diet. 1 whole egg is almost the amount that one person should take in a day. Now if someone eats 5 whole eggs a day, thats 5x as much cholesterol that the body is getting instead of what it needs. Just like anything else, it adds up and is harmful.
If you don't throw up after consuming a protein shake after a long night of drinking, you're not drinking enoughOriginally Posted by brettTHEjett

Time for some cardio after a night of drinking.
Tonight i'll be going out for a few. Last night I made it a gf night. getting a gf was a really strategic move on my part. It's one of the only ways I can stay out of the bar on weekend haha
Remember these tips for if you are going to drink.
-Drink vodka/water at the club. Healthiest drink you can order. Keeps the muscles somewhat hydrated
-Drink at least three liters of water before going to bed. DON'T THROW UP HAH
-Consume a protein shake with L-Glutamine and BCAA prior to going to bed and when you wake up. This will really help recovering your otherwise catabolic state muscles.
-Eat a WHOLE and COMPLETE meal in the morning with multivitamins and fish oils. Consume slightly larger amounts than usual as your body really needs to nutrients to get back on track.
-Overall, consume more water than you normally would. Drinking dehydrates you and if you are taking creatine or similar, your muscles will be THIRSTY

wth are you talking about?
If I go to the club i'm drinking whatever the eff I wanna drink, vodka/water the healthiest drink at the club??? you sure about that
I think some people OD on the protein shakes. I usually drink a glass of milk and i'm fine.
If you eat a complete meal in the morning there is no need to take a multivitamin. The thing alot of people don't know about multivitamins is that if it is tablet form most of whats in the tablet does not get digested the same way natural foods do. Most of it's potency is lost in the process. If your eating good foods throughout the day you don't need to worry about a multivitamin, especially with the ridiculous amounts/daily percentages they offer. I'm a pharmacy technincian and my boss told me the only people that really need a multivitamin are the elderly and young children who live in poverty.
I do agree with consuming water though, but at a normal pace.
Vodka/Tonic is the healthiest alcoholic drink calorie wise. That fact is right.
Most people dont need a multivitamin, but taking 1 one-a-day isnt going to hurt anyone and it will most likely be beneficial as long as the %DRVs arent insanely high.
