Reached intermediate level a while ago, but haven't been to the gym for abut 1.5 years due to life (had a kid, started a career, lots of hours). At a point now where I can go back to the gym, but...

I made roasted some peanuts w/ honey and sriracha one time and it was pretty bomb.... I have no idea how that would translate as a nut butter. Could be... interest... .........

Yeah, I recognize there will be large fluctuation when cycling off keto, but even when I've been off keto for some time it fluctuates quite a bit, especially after drinking. I don't know, I guess I'm...

Personally, I wouldn't carb up for the first month if this is your first time. Also, recalculate your tdee if you didn't already after your water weight loss. Figuring out your true TDEE takes time...

I didn't mean to imply that the individual was actually 10% BF. That's why I was agreeing w/ a previous poster about underestimating true BF%. I, personally, wouldn't say someone needs to be obese to...

Just posted this in another thread, but I think it fits here too. The best diet is the one that fits your lifestyle and gets you to your goal. If your goal is to gain muscle, you lift weights (etc),...

IME, the efficiency of a diet is relative to the individual. I'll use myself as an example. I know that ketogenic diets work very well for me. I'm going back to a ketogenic diet after trying various...

If you're looking to be "creative", the I assume you aren't going to be doing lazy cooking (ie rice cookers, microwave egg stuff, not that there's anything wrong with that). Do yourself a HUGE favor...

Awesome progress but.... +150 lbs on the squat, +130 lbs on the deadlift and + 30 on the bench press?!

Agreed. My guess is the individual (not sure if OP or client) is some form of skinny fat. They have a silhouette or "figure" of a skinny person, but their LBM is so low that they can achieve that...

Currently cutting

~1500 kcalories (slow metabolism :( )

~170g protein
~80g fat
~30g net carbs (carbs - fiber)

If I was bulking I would eat about 150g fat

If you are going to be throwing around copypasta'd chemistry knowledge, at least understand basic nomenclature. Sodium is elemental sodium and is not organic. To say sodium is organic is just wrong....

IMO, nothing is better than the original :)

Cuz you gotta eat like 8 meals per day to keep your metabolic fire stoked, brah (not srs)

Not that it's make or break, but I assume it has the same 4 kcals/g as regular protein?

Dude, I think you need to take biochem or something.

A) All minerals are, by definition, inorganic. That doesn't mean we don't need them.
B) When you say "just sodium" do you mean elemental...

I'm currently taking ON Creatine Mono caps. I've tried a couple different creatine brands and have found that the creatine doesn't dissolve well, gets stuck on the sides and bottom of glass after the...

Creatine never hurts to try. If you are still aiming to lose weight, you will probably put on some water weight, usually 4-5 lbs, that you can have to account for. If you have your diet in check...

You say your TDEE is 2600 kcals, and you're currently eating about 1300? First off, there are some major adjustments that you need to make. It's good that you are tracking calories, that will put you...

As far as alcohol content goes, it's about the same per drink (5 oz of ~13% ABV or 12 oz of ~5% ABV). As far as carbs go, beer has more. Wine has between 1-4g per glass, whereas beer has between...
