I'm also in the same position. Looking for some new, easy, healthy recipes if anyone has anything to contribute! :)

Usually it's some sort of meat cut with dry spices and a plate of plain veggies...

Hey everyone,

Waaaaay back when I used to be a Junior Moderator on this forum, back when I was fourteen/fifteen/sixteen years old and had every aspiration of dedicating my life (and career) to...

Good post brother!

I was in your case a few years ago...looking at an overwhelming list of supplements, with the massive dudes on the labels.

As the above said, don't bother with it yet. After you're married to...

Haha yeah it seems that way... A ghost that has since lost his shape :)

Been outta the gym for far too long... So hopefully I can get back into the swing of things!:meanstrongfd4:

So much has changed! Looks like the community is growing quickly here Damo!

Just dropping a quick line guys... I'm back for the time being and it's time to get back in shape. Work has been...

Welcome :)

I've been taking 3 shakes, two 2 scoop shakes and a single scoop one before bed. Been doing that for a while now, and haven't had any negative reports through blood tests or anything. That amount is...

Cheers guys :). Hope it helps!

*That's a very nice feature - article comments. Nice one!

I'm sure they are a delicacy when they are all cooked up in the oven and dressed with some kind of sauce :P. I'll eat anything once :)

Synthol: Injected directly into the muscle (between muscle fiber groups) to make the muscle "look bigger". The effects are purely cosmetic anyway...it doesn't build lean mass..just makes it look...

Water for me!

I would say a minute and a half. Although, there is no "set time"...If you feel shaky or uneasy and 1:30 has gone by, give it some more time.

That's one full chest man. Looks like you've got some good definition coming on as well. Keep up the good work!

Good stuff man. Just don't get overwhelmed by it. It's a lot to keep track of, take it one step at a time and make it a lifestyle. Best of luck with everything!

Hey man.

For starters, have a look at http://www.muscleandstrength.com/tools/bmr-and-daily-calorie-calculator.html

That!

Then find out your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) to see what your...

haha. Good plan for November's comp. Should get interesting!

Welcome to the team Shaun! Congrats! I've read some excellent posts made by you in the past. Well deserved man!

Looks good so far man. Keep up the good work!

I agree with the above. As you progress with pushups, they become an endurance type exercise. Because your body gets stronger, and the resistance doesn't change much, so you start working in the 20+...

Try eating more meals, and smaller portions for each meal to obtain your total needed calories. That should make you feel more balanced and not so stuffed/drowsy after eating.

Go for 5-6 meals at...

HAHA. I hear ya there.

My only complaint: The little bastard 9th graders in the gym who try to out bench eachother, then leave the weight all over the place afterwards for me to clean up. (I...

Which grip do you use on your seated bench? The vertical grip or horizontal grip? I'm not sure if this will help target the chest...But I would use the horizontal grip to better simulate a bench...

I've lost motivation as well, since I haven't had the time to workout. My nutritional mindset has shifted, and I've found I'm turning back to some unhealthy foods. I think I will try out the early...

I enjoy doing them every so often. I agree with Saurus as well. I've found they've helped me increase my resistance if I hit a wall. As said above, if used too frequently, your biceps will become...

Good stuff man. Good luck with it. Feel free to talk to guys around here on the topic and how you're doing. Lots of people 'round here that can help keep you on your toes to quit this habit!

That's why I'm trying to sponge up all the facts and learn from you guys. That way I can have a better understanding of training for myself, and try to answer beginner questions my friends may have....

Personally I found pyramid training very successful to increase my strength..

Example: set 1 8 reps
set 2: 6 reps heavy weight
set 3: 4 reps heavier weight
set 4: 3 reps heaviest weight. Close...

Good stuff buddy. Definitely is the best on the net :)

Beef stew definitely sounds a lot easier lol

Good ol' side walk ants served me well in my days of being a young lad :)

Pizza last night, and a big cigar on the weekend. There's my confession lol

Yeah I order stuff from BB.com, but I've checked out the forum and didn't like what I saw - so I left.

Yup Ontario, Canada - the place to be :)

I try :) lol. Yeah King was a bit of a knob. Knobs like that don't belong on this forum.

I feel the same as you rooboy, that's why I'm here instead of bodybuilding.com forums - which in my opinion...

Glad that knob's gone after reading all that BS...

Nice intro. I've got a buddy that just got his pilot's license and is ranked the best pilot in Ontario Canada.

Shaun- I'm a lifeguard at the Hilton Hotel down by where I live :) Tis a good place,...
