I am the same exact height as you. When my "squat" got up to about 295 I noticed my lower back was getting sore. Looking for help, I bought Rippetoe's "Starting Strength 3rd ed" and studied up on...
Speaking of broscience: the thing that I heard over and over when I was a teen was that weightlifting would stunt your growth because the muscles would pull on the bones and contract them while they...
Not upset. I am still interested in the OP's original problem, which is presumably the point of this entire thread as he started it and we're all adding to it, getting nowhere.
I shared a personal anecdote regarding my diet and exercise habits from my 20's and my 40's. I also shared an anecdotal observation about a friend and my wife. How is that "spreading inaccurate...
Correct, I don't have a clue. That's why I am here to dig for information and learn something. Kinda tough when every question or observation is met with "R@wr yo retuuurd your stupid your no haz a...
I see you're having a tough time engaging in discussion without insults. Clearly I am the ignorant one here and I am asking you for some information. If you have a peer-reviewed journal that proves...
Educate me. Let's see if we can't put to rest the question of why some people can consume a quantity of calories that exceeds their daily expenditure through work and still not convert the excess...
Clandry, honestly not attempting to defy the First Law of Thermodynamics. The First Law says that "a quantity of heat is consumed proportional to work done" etc. and so on. My personal anecdote does...

Theoretically, yes, I am sure your are right. I did try a diet that was protein and fat only, but it made me so miserable after 7 days that I could not continue. I did lose weight from it but put...
Do you have access to a iPhone? If so, check out an app called "PushUp fu". It's a brutal trainer once you get up to your maximum. It added size to my chest for sure.
Not necessarily. When I was 20 all I did all day long was eat. Full litres of Coke one after the other. Constant stream of bread, butter, and mayo with whatever high fat meat was on hand (usually...
I plateaued my bench and then I tried the stronglifts 5x5 program. This got me through the wall and into new territory. Went from a 160 5x5 to a 245 5x5. Going for 250 on Tuesday. Look into it if...
I've been working on my squats 3 days per week. Getting stronger and bigger. I've noticed that the bigger my legs get, the harder it is to do my 3 mile cardio run. Is there a better cardio routine...
In my experience: yohimbe increased my libido, but no appetite suppressant effect. Yohimbine HCL suppressed appetite and increased energy, but needed an empty stomach and my body acclimates to it...
