  • How are fat burners even necessary if calories are in check?

    I know a lot of people say fat loss is a numbers game... eat ~3500 calories under maintenance/week and lose a pound of fat a week. I don't know if it really is this simple, but if is, how would fat...
  • Are higher reps or lower reps generally safer?

  • Question about length of cut/bulk cycles

    I was wondering if "yo-yo-ing" with calories on cut/bulk cycles is the most efficient way to do things? Should the end of a cut/bulk be followed by a few weeks of maintenance to acclimate to that...

    Ok, I was about 10% serious when I said that. I just really don't feel like getting into a discussion about if NO works or not.
