Re: Best cardio exercise

I wrote about this a while back (link below) but there really is no such thing as "best" cardio. It depends on your fitness, level, your goals, and your overall training. Lower intensity cardio (even just brisk walking) isn't bad at all if you are just starting out, fatigued from doing wei...

Prohormones are Worthless

A few days ago I wrote an article about the "supplements" known as prohormones. I reminisced about all the stupid things I tried back in the 90's when these "new" supplements first went mainstream. As you can guess by the title, I am not impressed by them at all. Most of them are...

Re: Cholesterol, some useful insights.

I actually discovered cholesterol was high a few months ago. I did research for about six months and you can read about what I learned here: http://musclereview.net/lower-cholesterol-naturally-without-statins You'll see one of main strategies was Niacin--this is what I think most people should try i...

Re: Is Acai Berry for weight loss a Scam?

Yes, it is a scam as far as I'm concerned. Acai products can contain antioxidants if they are properly processed. But this really doesn't have anything to do with fat loss. I'd say these kind of products are a waste of money for the most part. 99% of the "fat burners" out there are worthle...

Re: 6 pack help

Yohimbine HCL can help IF you are already fairly lean. You can see this article for more details:

Creatine Monohydrate vs "New and Improved" Creatine

Creatine has become one of the most popular dietary supplements in the sports nutrition market. The form of creatine that has been most extensively studied and commonly used in dietary supplements is creatine monohydrate (CM). Studies have consistently indicated that CM supplementation increases mu...

Re: 6 pack help

It's really impossible to say exactly how long it will take without knowing your body fat %. Based on your height and weight I'd say you're probably fairly lean already. Genetics do play a role here, too, as some of us carry more fat around the midsection than others and require a lower body fat % t...

Re: why am i gaining weight?

Well, any weight gain can only be three things: fat, water, or muscle. It's quite possible to have water weight fluctuations of 3-5 lb so I wouldn't worry too much about it. As long as your diet and training are in order you'll see results. Kevin http://strongandfit.net" onclick="window.op...

Re: Muscle Soreness

Hi Ninja (I'm also from Alabama, by the way). I'm not sure how new you are to training or what type of routine you are doing. I usually stick to pragmatism when it comes to training while sore. If I've rested for a day or two and I'm a little sore then I might train. If I'm so sore I can hardly move...

Re: I'm confused

If you are a new trainee you would probably find it most helpful to do a full body routine a 2-3 days a week. As your training intensifies you'll need more rest between workouts and should progress to an upper body/lower body split. But splitting your routine up into several different body parts is ...

Re: Most Efficient Use of Time

You may want to try to do "non-competing supersets," like going between bench press and squats. That way you are working different muscle groups, keeping your heart rate up, and making the most of limited time. You may also want to look into interval training--it's more time efficient than...

Re: I need a new program - but im lost

answer would depend, to a certain extent, on how long you have been training. If you've only been training for a year you may want to experiment with some full body routines--I think this is better for beginners wanting to put on mass. It also depends on your goals. There's a program I sell on blog...

Re: Pre-workout meal...bored.

To be honest, I think the pre workout meal is one of the most over-analyzed aspects of training. Granted, you wouldn't want to scarf down a whole pizza before you train (it will probably be back to visit you), but I usually don't eat anything "special" before I work out. The bigger the mea...
