Adian,

Good job sticking with your legal choices. I too enjoy obeying the law because I'm in a role model position.

I think the gentleman earlier had a great idea about cutting the cycle to say...

tomdana,

True about the genetic feature. I would like to know 1) how low 2) how long

until one decides that niacin is appropriate?

I usually test just under 10% BF.

About how long should I do the fish oil thingy until i get tested again? Rough ideas welcome.

How many grams of fish oil do I need to make it significant for my purposes? I'm up to 7 grams a day gell caps.

That is interesting to hear testosterone (low) could have a negative effect on cholesterol.

Women usually have men beat when in comes to lipid levels. Especially HDL.

OK, this is new stuff.

What is the diff between a spoonful of fish oil and gell capped fish oil?

I did niacin on the advice of a doctor when I was doing deca about 7 years ago. Come to think of...

Yeah, Geek, that what i heard from just researching on the internet regarding niacin. That the doses being so high that doctor supervision is needed. Liver problems were not likely, but possible in...

Enduro,

I use a lot of Smart Balance butter. Plenty of Monos & Omega 3, and has olive/canola oil.

Joed,

Won't niacin mess up your liver? I need like mega doses to make it effective on my HDL.

Seems those mega doses of any vitamin would have some side effects after a while if not liver probs.

Thanks Kingstu,

I'll pump myself up with fish oil, drink wine and HIIT the track every week and see if that bumps it up.

Think I should give this a month and check again before statins, or try...

Window of opportunity? Are you sure about that?

Seemed like creatine used to have a dramatic effect back when I first tried it about 10 years ago. Now I hardly notice anything.

Yeah i get my heart rate up, but then there are those moments when you are just walking and standing. Whatever the case i know people who do nothing but sit on their ass and have HDL 2x higher than...

He said do cardio.

I play tennis 3-4 times a week. Does that count?

I have every intention of looking better than guys half my age at age 50.

Then tell all the 40 somethings they have no excuse.

For the past few years when i have checked my cholesterol it has ran anywhere between 30mg/dl- 34 mg/dl.

Ideally it should be 40mg/dl or higher. My total and LDL are normal (166 total, and 108...

Good post. I don't see the big issue with shakes though. My body does not seem to discriminate from nutrients in beverage form vs. solid food. Main difference is its just easier (less filling) and...

Who need Riptoe/ 5X5 when all you have to do is get a bow flex?

I thought the advanced template for 5x5 was a typo when I saw squats and deads on the same workout. However, this is a proven method to an extent.

I guess it could be OK depending on the perceived...

Also, just out of curiosity what are your max lifts?

Alfz,

Its only natural your lower body work will improve fast than your upper body.

75% of your potential muscle is in your back anf legs. Not chest and tris.
