should be here in a couple days

I haven't read that book of Lyle's, but I have read a few of his others. Does he recommend eating only protein? That's sounds wrong to me.

How long to you intend on following this diet plan? Just...

There isn't anything else to it. Eat high carbs after a workout. Eat low carbs on off days. Don't knitpick, just do it.

Or, as above, keep macros consistent. Realize the context of the carb...

I like the idea of counting by week better. Have some high calorie days and some low calorie days.

I feel most people don't have the patience for that, however.

Once you cut down to the body you want, I like the idea of doing recomp to maintain it and still make (slow) progress.

For example, high carbs on lifting days and low carbs on off days. More...

I haven't read any of the recipes in this topic, but I'm going to add my version of protein pancakes. Delicious and filling :)

-blend 3-4 egg whites (I use 2 egg whites and 1 whole egg) with a few...

sounds like a load of bollocks. Not saying it's all fake, but I doubt the results from eating a ton of apple peels would be significant.

I'd be interested to see human trials, however

lol, this topic is hilarious

Take them every day

Nutrient timing is as absurd as meal timing (save for perhaps multi with a meal)

Have you ever measured caffeine intake? It's possible you don't take enough.

Anecdotal example of how I'm trying to approach this idea: When starting an EC stack I never feel the caffeine until...

I buy bulk BCAAs. It allows me to train "fasted" and it blunts the cortisol release PWO. Aside from that it's a more expensive protein. Not necessary at all if you have a meal before and after you...

It's been getting better. I've been getting a lot of PRs lately, so I can presume my workout-to-workout recovery has improved.

It was my school's spring festival so I've been pretty busy. I will be keeping this update brief, so to put it simply: stimulants (EC), whacky sleep schedule, excessive concert attendance. Also my...

For convenience, I put water in a mug then warm that for about a minute in the microwave, then toss the tea bag in the water. Any type of green or black tea will do (green has more polyphenols, black...

Growing a tolerance to GG is like growing a tolerance to vegetable oil. If it happens, you are doing it wrong.

The statement about nausea is a general statement that is on every supplement...

I also want to add, the glutamine makes for a damn good tea

Keep it up!
