Thanks everybody, I appreciate the input. I was actually unaware that BCAAs could spike insulin levels. Probably going to try to get a keto diet going by the beginning of next week.

sugar alcohols just give food companies and exuse to slap the 'sugar free' label on candy and stuff since they are technically differant from 'sugar'. Your body can still, often with more difficulty,...

naw, Xtend is a BCAA supp. im pretty sure my head would explode if it had caffein

changes in the mirror are very slow and not always easy to see if your not used to noticing them. If you absolutly need to have some sort of micro-feedback to stay motivated try useing personal...

I have been looking into keto recently and one question that has come up that I havn't been able to find a satisfactory answer too concerns Xtend and its sucralose content. I have read that splenda...

The idea of doing "push ups" was introduced/invented a looong loooong time ago as an exercise for those who were considered to weak to lift weights. Why use a substitute when you can do the real...

It molds very quickly if not kept in a freezer (which is where its at in most supermarkets) so I doubt ordering on the internet would not work out well.

I think it was julius caesar that said "if we are not meant to eat animals, then why are they made out of meat?"

this thread needs to die
