Ok, here's one article regarding l-arginine as an aid in recovery. I'll pull more if you folks need it. In addition, somebody said it's a non-essential amino that the body produces. While it is a...

Wrong.

I use this to help with recovery. My new protein powder contains it too, and I don't realize that. Consequently I've taken too much and got a rash on my upper arms. Anybody else have this experience?

It's true. It's happened more than once. I've used just plain creatine on four occasions over the last five years and appreciated the extra endurance but saw the big weight gain, 10-12lbs. I...

I posted a similar question on the 35+ forum and got one response. The supplement recommendation was a cup of coffee.

Thanks for the responses. Much appreciated. After reading about the suggestions, Hemavol seems to have gotten a lot of chatter. Anybody know why it's not sold on BB.Com? There are a lot of posts...

Anybody know of any good pre-workout supplments that don't contain creatine? Creatine makes me gain weight quickly, like 12lbs/week. I'm looking for a pre-workout supplement the the benefits of NO,...

Anybody know of any good pre-workout supplements that don't contain creatine? Creatine makes me gain a ton of weight quickly, like 12lbs in a week. I'd like to find something with an NO benefit,...

I recently started taking MusclePharm's Assault. I love it. It's a big help for my workouts. I go longer and harder. The problem is I'm trying to get leaner and I've gained 11 pounds in the two...

I have a bone spur in my left shoulder and am going to get it removed before I have a tear. My left shoulder cracks and pops when I move it. I do a ton of exercises to strengthen the RT, but it...

Thanks for the encouragement. I tore mine benching. Nothing heavy--225, after a warm-up set, on the first rep. The bone spur just shredded it. But I see a lot of people who have gotten back, so I...

Thanks for your comments. The fact that it's more than a year since I posted this helps explain what I experienced. Recovery is a long slow process. I had my surgery July, 2011. I started back, a...

I'd really appreciate hearing others' experiences with rotator cuff surgery. Will I be able to lift again? How horrible is the surgery? How horrible is the recovery? How long will I be down and...

Thanks very much. I suppose once one gets the formula down it needs tweaking to be effective for different individuals. I guess the truth is I've been avoiding the fact that diet is such a huge...

Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks so much for the help.

I need to lean out but don't want to lose a bunch of muscle mass. Any suggestions? And thanks in advance.

I doubt you know 99 percent of other "girls."

Don't you agree you're generalizing to a pretty severe degree? There are a ton of women who take responsibility for themselves. Look at the women on...

This entire thread is amazing. It makes very clear which male posters have had a respectful relationship with a woman and which are either rapists and/or virgins living at home with their mothers. ...

Anybody have an opinion on whether increasing weight or decreasing weight per set helps add size?

Thanks very much.
