Tomorrow is my show and it is going to be cold her in New England. When I am cold I lose all my vascularity. Anything I can do to get it back before I go On stage (I cannot take NO2 for medical...

Oh darn, I am Italian too! If that much cardio works for you and you don't lose muscle, then keep it the same. Different things work for different people. You don't want to slow down you...

Wow, that is a boat load of cardio for 10 weeks out. Maybe you better cut that back some or you will (or may already have) adapt to that level and then what will you do when you are 4 weeks out? 14...

I am in the same boat. I am not and endomorph. I am a combination of all three body types. I can't put muscle or size in my arms to save my life yet when I do a bulking diet, it all comes on in my...

I am sure this was already asked, but I find whole food much more filling than liquid meals. On the Cut Diet, two of the meals are mostly liquid (WPI with almonds). Is there a whole food substitute...

A female cannot survive at 3% bodyfat.

You are totally correct. I have read different % the same day using three different techniques. I chose the skin fold technique and use that as my guide. I know the number itself is not right, but...

its not that I care about the actual numbers, its just that I know how I look at 12% and I have been at 10% and I look more defined at 10%. I have competed at 114 and I was too thin so I know that I...

I have heard numerous times not to combine fat and carbs as you have said, yet the re-feed meal is high fat and high carb. Why is that and won't it hinder progress (especially being the last meal of...

I actually am in a tough situation myself. I am 7 weeks from my figure comp. I weigh about 121 lbs and I am just about 5'6". I am at 12% body fat and my legs and arms are lean, but I need to lose...

Yeah, I agree. HIIT after weight training I am sure would lead to overtraining. Probably best saved for an off day if you do use it.

It does burn a good amount of calories I guess, but you only do it for half the time that you do low intensity, so it almost seems as if it would be more muscle sparing? The study given to me showed...

Its not. 1 T flax oil has 13 g fat and one T PB has 8g fat (16g for 2T)

Good, that was the answer I was looking for. I hate cardio, but if I have to do it, I prefer steady state for a longer duration. I just feel better after I do it. Not sure why. I know cardio is...

Yes, I am on Synthroid and a little higher than normal dose because I had thyroid cancer, so my "thyroid" should work pretty well. For my body type, I have very long thin limbs and long muscle...

There is a lot mentioned about the thyroid here. I had my thryoid removed a few years ago. Will this diet still work for me? I competed for the first time in May (two shows) and I am doing another...

for the meat, is it measured raw or cooked?

I ordered the book, but have not got it yet, however, one thing I have a question about is the cardio. You say to do long duration LI. From what I have been reading almost everywhere (it could just...

I agree, I will wait with the creatine. I may find I don't even need it and I would prefer to stick with what I am taking which is only whey and glutamine, however, I do want to try the...

That does help. Thanks. I do cut pretty quickly however, I know it always takes longer every competition. Problem I see is if I start the cell mass and then cut it 8 weeks out to be safe then it...
