I got the book, and I thought it was OK.

He's preaching the same old stuff: discipline, train hard, eat clean, rest, etc.

There's some cool stuff in there, however, I didn't like the way the...

Interesting. My program is coming along well. Let's just say t-shirts are fitting well and I feel fly. In any case, I'm going to monitor my progress closely. I finish week 1 this week. Having a...

Cool. I think I'm going to stay away from bars. :-)

Good point. I'll have to be careful. I've already started to notice that I'm losing a little bit of muscle mass. However, getting lean is the priority right now. If I notice I'm going down too much,...

By the way, I forgot to comment on body composition. I totally agree with you. I'm referencing weight here as a point of reference, so I can communicate my goals. My weight will likely go down. I was...

Well, I consider myself in pretty good shape. My goal is to lose the small tire I have around my belly. I have decent muscle mass, since I've been training for a long time, and also work part time as...

I like your advice. The reason I posted this thread is because I was contemplating buying some bars, but became a little weary. They range from lean mean cardboard chocolate, to a mars bar with...

I just started a program where I'm going to focus on losing roughly 5-8 pounds of fat over a 6 week period. That's about how much fat I need to lose to get my abs to show.

In any case, I'm on the...

Your point is well taken.

As far as I know, I've never heard someone say caffeine has a thermogenic effect. In the sense that it motivates you to hit the weights, therefore you lose more weight /...

I hate to disagree with you folks. However, people need to talk. It's healthy. It's motivating. So what if someone is complaining, let them, and help them, it helps everyone.

If you don't like...

Nice! I'm a coffee lover. Never thought of adding coffee to my shakes. Instant coffee + chocolate protein + skim milk might be a good recipe for a wholesome shake with some kick that'll get your butt...

2 comments (plain and simple):

1 - Eating big macs ain't gonna get you where you want to be. Sounds like you want to eat healthy for a reason, a good reason. So forget about the bigmac combo...

I agree. You have to live it up. It's what you do most of the time.

This was supposed to be a reply to a thread. Sorry!

Good to know. I'm going to stock up on Green / White tea.

By the way, I don't think there's any harmful effects of drinking green tea. I read a report once about the people in asia, and how they...

I don't think coffee plays a major role in losing fat. It may motivate you to hit the weights. This is what works:

- Exercise
- Diet
- Rest

Coffee or no coffee, you need to execute the 3...

Dude, just do it!

First off, it's not cool. Some people have Diabetes, and have no choice.

The other day, I was at a poker game, and I was wearing one of those Oprah yellow 'Live Strong' wristbands. Most of you...

I'm going to cut my pop/coffee intake to 3-4 drinks a day. If I can hit my goals, I'll leave it at that. Moderation will be the key.

I find green tea leaves me feeling dehydrated. Never tried...

You're absolutely right about the water. I try to drink as much as I can. I'm going to attempt to lower my pop/coffee intake. It keeps me up at night, and disrupts my sleeping patterns, which is no...
