    I'm ok if there are a few leaves of kale in a salad. But the first time I tried it, I thought it was quite disgusting. Still don't like too much of it. There are plenty of choices in vegetables, I...

    Not going to comment on the diet part. For me, if I want to lose weight, I eat less. That's my whole diet plan. Well, I try to get a good amount of protein.

    Somebody asked (indirectly) before: How tall are you, OP? You're still quite light, but it obviously depends on your height.

    Your squat is actually decent, assuming you squat to depth. If you...

    What happens if you try to order it on BB.com? As a test, I added ON Mono to my shopping cart, and went all the way to the final order confirmation page. I didn't see anything suggesting that they...

    Another very established program you could consider if you like it simple is Starting Strength: https://startingstrength.com/get-started/programs. It uses 3x5 for the main lifts, and gives you the...

    Nice troll. There are a lot of things I'm not interested in. But I don't go on a yoga message board asking them to explain what's so great about it.

    Just do what you enjoy, and let others enjoy...

    The advantage of the machine is that you have the same resistance for the whole ROM. With the dumbbell, the resistance is maximal when the legs are horizontal, and then tails off until reaching zero...

    Yes, it really depends on the exercise selection. But in general, particularly if you deadlift on legs (lower) day, you tend to have much more overlap between leg and pull day, so you want to keep...

    Not sure which angle you're asking about. The forearms will have to be vertical. So their angle relative to the trunk will depend on the incline angle. If it's for example a 30 degree incline, the...

    You don't need extra amino acids if you get enough protein. Seems crazy expensive, too.

    Their math is kind of interesting. A 6.4g scoop contains: 1g of carbs, 4g of protein, and 3.6g of their EAA...

    Not sure if serious... Of course protein is high in amino acids. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Proteins are chains of amino acids, connected by peptide bonds. So amino acids are the...

    Some programs do it one way, some the other way. If one approach were clearly superior, they would all use it.

    IMHO, one consideration is how advanced you are. If you're at a relatively modest...

    I know this gets mentioned here a lot, so I just did some quick reading on the background. From what I could find, the body types are not necessarily debunked. For example from a related wikipedia...

    I wouldn't worry too much how much you can lift at 13. What matters is that you train smartly and consistently. If you stick with it, unlike probably most teenagers, I predict that you will be very...

    I wouldn't call 5 sets of squats and 5 sets of deadlifts "little work". I would probably reduce the volume on the main lifts (especially the deadlifts), and add one or two accessories instead.

    I did apply it to a PPL for a while. I mainly used two ranges. For example, for push day, the main lifts would be performed as:

    push A: bench 3x5, OHP 3x10
    push B: OHP 3x5, bench 3x10
