I use ProV60 for my protein blend supplement. I also use 100% whey, when I wake up as it's fast acting. The ProV60 is a blend that has casein, egg and whey, so you get the benefit of the extended...

It's not only taste that you have to consider: it's protein type. When you're using a protein, you should know why you're using it, and this is directly related to the question of WHEN you're using...

I find it interesting that, just before the Arnold, we find these companies playing politics in the forum, talking trash about each other. I've been around the industry, and I know the game: these...

Interesting. Can you post the lab tests on the caffeine content in NOexplode?

Thanks!

I recommend a good WPI, as well as a good protein blend. Also, an MRP or RTD is invaluable for getting in your protein. Creatine is old-reliable and CEE works well. If you want a good recovery...

The best one's I've used are:

ON 100% Whey
Universal Animal Pak Multi
Labrada Sorenzyme
NOW Supercolostrum

The best thing to do is to have WPI with some Leucine. The dextrose will trigger an insulin response that will crush the GH response while also increasing serotonin levels during your workout,...

The best thing you can do is take a break, but since you've indicated that you don't want to, here's the best thing you can do: recharge the chemicals (neurotransmitters) that are depleted from...

Hey Van,

2400mg per day of advil? WOW! That's brutal - I mean, just terrible. I agree that advil has merit and is, in some cases, neccessary to prevent immediate and overwhelming inflammation...

Enzymes are by far the best way to reduce inflammation naturally. I wrote an article about DOMS (do a search on the mainpage) and it explains all about inflammation and pain, etc.

When it comes...

If you want one that tastes good, my choice is the new fruit and nut bar by Labrada. It's not too heavy, is high in protein and tastes good.

I agree that you should rest it, but you should also take something to help with the inflammation.

I don't recommend taking ibuprofen except in extreme cases as this can inhibit protein synthesis...

You're best to go with a casein protein powder or a time-released protein powder like ProV60 that releases over the course of around 5 hours. Using a mixture will help with immediate amino acid needs...

That's the common perception, that the FTC fills this role. However, in actual practice, they're quite overzealous. As for how it relates to my article specifically, the answer is: it doesnt.

One of the best books I have ever read. Well thought out, and quite funny, actually. I recommend this book highly.

Good idea. I've read countless studies on the effects of NSAID's - i.e. ibuprofin - and the results of the studies arent pretty. The research shows that they dramatically inhibit protein synthesis...

The thinking on protein intake is that a number of factors are important:

1. total amount
2. timing
3. protein type

The total amount has always been 1-1.5 grams per lb of bodyweight, but the...

Hello everyone,

I'm glad that you all liked the article and found it informative. In the original article text, I did state the name of the product that I found in the course of my research but,...
