Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: What should be my strategy?
« on: November 09, 2010, 09:03:44 am »
Well yeah... too many eggs aren't toxic or something?
In terms of cardio - that will burn calories... and I can barely take too many to aid in muscle growth already. That's my issue. And I've started to eat really clean these last few days and plan on continuing with that. Hopefully some recomposition will occur.

Well that yoghurt had more carbs than fat... weird.
Would you think getting rice AFTER a workout would be cool? I plan on doing that today. Rice + chicken.
My problem is with meals outside of training... when I'm idle at work sitting on a chair for 7-8 hours...
Would something like yoghurt + fish (pangasius) work for a meal at work? (for a protein + fat meal) Other ideas for this?

No homo "
". For what does that "" stand for 
But anyway, I thought fish + salad = protein + carbs?...
And I looked at a yoghurt bottle and it was like 4 protein, 5 carbs and 3 fats... so more carbs than fats... wtf?

« on: November 08, 2010, 04:42:38 am »i imagine you will have a "blood thirst" kind of feeling once you start eating like this, and that's a bad sign
What do you mean by that?

Is powder milk acceptable? Because I have milk intolerance... I mean, I can drink a cup or so per day but that's pretty much it.
I have a hard time of getting protein+fat meals. I mean, I have no idea of what these meals look like... I guess I always ate protein+carbs...
Can someone throw a few examples at me (I'll look for some in Kelly's body comp basics book).
Also, running won't be an option when winter comes. Running on the treadmill could be and kettlebell swings for cardio work... although I don't like using the treadmill... I'm afraid of it (falling and all that).
And wouldn't it be detrimental to muscle building if I burned calories doing stuff like running and cardio? Wouldn't they contradict each other?...

Well theoretically your calves don't do much in terms of jumping. If you isolate them and jump only by ankle extension you won't get very high. Good plantar flexion ankle ROM is a great way to get more out of them I suppose.
However, I have a feeling that once they get "loaded" at high speeds/high forces they contribute much more than you'd think.

Why? Great calves can really improve your athletic ability, especially as they are so overlooked nowadays (before they were too emphasized which was wrong as well)

Daaaang, I'm starting to feel fat, nerdy with glasses and ground-bounded. Hey, I AM THAT! Well not really, but not far away.
I always hated programming. And it's silly because I had my first computer at 5 years old in 1990... used to play around "programming" stuff... but it all broke down from me in high school... damn I hated Pascal!

Nutrition & Supplementation / What should be my strategy?
« on: November 07, 2010, 10:45:48 am »
I'm trying to gain strength right now for the next 3-4 months. I'm at ~84 kg right now. Bodyfat % is probably ~15-16%.
What should be my approach in these 3-4 months in terms of eating? Should I eat like a bull everyday regardless if I go to the gym/I consume calories that day or should I just eat a lot in the training days/after training and keep a low calorie, low carb intake in my rest days?
Should I take a protein shake that's 50% protein 50% carbs after my training/in my training days instead of the 90% protein one that I'm taking right now?
Do you think I should aim at re-composition in this 3-4 month period (meaning - trying to build muscle in my training days in terms of nutrition and lose fat in the off days, maybe doing some running, cardio etc)? Or should I go all out into muscle building and forget about cardio and stuff, with the idea of shedding fat later?

So you're saying rise up bilaterally and go down unilaterally. Because otherwise how can you use a weight you can't go up with for more than 1 rep?
