Three Simple Steps For A Healthy Breakfast

abhishek_513 — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 07:29:45 GMT

Three Simple Steps For A Healthy Breakfast

Many peoples don’t want to eat anything that will aggravate your acne, cause a breakout, or contribute to premature aging.

To eat for our skin, we want to follow three simple steps -

Eat low Glycemic Index foods
Avoid refined sugars
Eat as many nutrients as possible

These three simple steps are all very easy to follow for each meal that you eat throughout the day. And breakfast is probably the easiest.

If you want to be ridiculously healthy, then you can follow a raw food diet and drink a powered up green smoothie, or you could make a savory grain ‘porridge’ out of something like amaranth or quinoa.

Have you ever used steroids?

alin — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 19:44:25 GMT

It seems that a lot of guys are using steroids these days and, frankly, I fail to comprehend why someone would risk serious health problems just to have the same gains in less time. What do you think about the use of anabolic steroids?

Perfect Age to Start Body Building?

startle — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 22:02:41 GMT

For you what do you think is the perfect age to start body building? I think the late 20s is a good age to start. Teenage years, i don't really think so.

***Phase II Bulk: My revised 8-Week iForce Bold 200/IBE Epistane Project***

ashish — Sun, 30 Sep 2007 03:48:37 GMT

***Phase II Bulk: My *revised* 8-Week iForce Bold 200/IBE Epistane Project***

Phase II: 8-week bulk w/ iForce Bold 200 & IBE Epistane Cycle

BACKGROUND: I've just come off of a cut, and I'm looking to gain about 10 pounds, with most of it being lean mass. I've been lifting on and off since high school, but started getting serious about one year ago. This is my first PH cycle since the ban. Here are my stats:

Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 160 lbs
Body Fat %: ~13.2%

Target weight: 170 lbs
Target BF% <15%

DIET:

Calories: ~3000 / day
Protein (1.5 x bw): ~240 g / day (960 cals)
Carbs (2.5 x bw): ~400 g / day (1600 cals)
Fats (0.3 x bw): ~50 g / day (450 cals)
Target Macro Split: ~ 30/55/15 (P/C/F)

SUPPLEMENTATION DOSAGES AND SCHEDULE:

Main Stack: I initially was fully intent on doing an Epistane pulse cycle for the full 8 weeks to run along side the Bold. However, I have decided to just run a 6 week Epistane cycle starting on week 3. From all accounts, it takes the Bold about 2 weeks to "kick in", so this seems like a logical plan for me.

Week 1: iForce Bold 200 @ 600mg / ED
Week 2: iForce Bold 200 @ 600mg / ED
Week 3: iForce Bold 200 @ 600mg / ED ; IBE Epistane @ 10 mg / ED
Week 4: iForce Bold 200 @ 600mg / ED ; IBE Epistane @ 20 mg / ED
Week 5: iForce Bold 200 @ 600mg / ED ; IBE Epistane @ 30 mg / ED
Week 6: iForce Bold 200 @ 600mg / ED ; IBE Epistane @ 30 mg / ED
Week 7: iForce Bold 200 @ 600mg / ED ; IBE Epistane @ 30 mg / ED
Week 8: iForce Bold 200 @ 600mg / ED ; IBE Epistane @ 10 mg / ED

Support & Other Supplements:

PrimaForce Primal N20 Pre-Workout Formula
MuscleTech Cell-Tech Creatine
Anabolic Xtreme Perfect Cycle Liver Support

Days 1 - 4: Toremifene Citrate @ 120 mg / day
Days 5 - 7: Toremifene Citrate @ 90 mg / day
Week 2: Toremifene Citrate @ 90 mg / day ; Anabolic Xtreme Hyperdrol @ 4 / day, MassFX @ 2 / day, Retain @ 1 / day

Echoareone: Bulking with Trinity!

ashish — Sun, 30 Sep 2007 03:44:13 GMT

Echoareone: Bulking with Trinity!

About Me
I've been training for about 2.5 years now. I started with bodyweight exercises in middle school, and moved on to weights around age 16. I admit that a lot of the past three years of my training has been uneducated curl-jockeying and stupid dieting, but I've had my stuff nailed down for the past 6 months. In that time, I've brought my weight up from a puny 162 (after a bad cut), to my current 190.

Stats
Weight: 190 pounds
Height: 5'11"
Bodyfat Estimate: ~10%

Lifts
Squat: 305x5
Deadlift: 405x2
BB Row: 8x240
DB Bench: 100's x5
DB Press: 65's x 10
Powerclean: 205x3
Dips: 8xBW+30
Pullups: 8xBW+40

Goals
I want to get to a lean 210 by the end of this school year. That means 20 pounds in about 6 months. Since I've been stuck at 190 for a while, it looks like I might need some help. That's where the Trinity comes in. I'll be running the trinity stack (Supremacy, Regenesen and Amplitude) for 4 weeks, or 8 if I can find the cash for more!

Supplements:
Amplitude
Regenesen
Supremacy
Creatine Monophosphate
Whey Protein
NOW Adam
Fish Oil

Training
Day 1: Chest/Triceps
Day 2: Back/Biceps
Day 3: Legs/Abs
Day 4: Shoulders/Arms

I rest every 5th day, and do cardio when I feel like it. I will use a pyramid-type scheme for my reps.

Diet
I get about 3100 calories a day, divided between 7 meals. I don't keep exact count, but my main foods are these:
Oats, Chicken, Tuna, Eggs, Beef, Milk, Whey Protein, Peanut Butter, all kinds of vegetables

Pics are coming, and body measurements will be up, as soon as I get my tape :P

Workout with no result?

deboramcna — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 21:56:49 GMT

I`m overweight and really need to lose weight. I`m 5 ft 7 in and 181 lb and I should lose about 35-40 lb. I don`t have a time limit but want to get rid of the extra weight by May or June. I`ve been jogging regularly for over a month, and no results, I run for 30 minutes each morning and 15 minutes in the evening. Why can`t I lose weight? Although I try to eat healthy, could my diet be the problem?

A trip to Bahamas

kellya — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 13:03:29 GMT

A trip to Bahamas is all I want right now and I already feel the sand under my feet and the smell of ocean. However, I need to lose some pounds. I`m not overweight but I want to follow a diet in order to lose these extra-pounds. My job take too much of my time and when I get home, I`m just exhausted, so a diet seems to be the best solution. I want a website with lots of diets to choose from. Thanks!

How I did (doing) it- The weightloss Success Thread

admin — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 06:21:38 GMT

I don't want to bore you with my background details as I guess you may have got it in the home page. We 3 of us had started the commune for combined weightloss.. But things didn't go as we expected and the other 2 friends dropped out of the commune and continue to grow their bulk changing their clothes to accomodate their ever increasing bulk.. I should say I had been more or less the same from when I started this commune at 2007. I was 96 then and in a couple of occassion came down to 94 and then back to 96.

I had been from pillar to post trying all sort of experiments in reducing weight for the past 2 years. I had tried Atkins Diet/ Cycling/ Yoga/ Ayurveda/Taichi and some therapies.. But none of them seem to work for me. I should shed some light on the past.. I used to work in Dubai for 4 years where Fast foods(Junk food) and Fat Foods (Mutton, Camel, Lamb, Pork, Cheese Burgers etc) were abundant. I lived with my friend whose wife was an excellent cook so we used to cook and gobble up any new type of meat available in the hypermarket.. Since there was nothing else to do weekends rolled on with food and drink with a nice sleep. I had once been 104 but then without any effort I dropped to this 96 kg which had been my weight for atleast 4 years now.

To cut the Big story shot.. Have a look at these threads http://bodybuildingcommune.com/blogs/weight_loss/archive/2007/07/11/mission-started.aspx

Weight loss story - Target 25 Pounds

No Big Success in First Phase

I was blogging the developments but It is not so good in interacting with other members in the commune.. I would be happy if you can rep to my posts on this thread. I will be updating this thread every now and then..

So what's the big deal now? Yeah I have shred 4 kg now with a simple method which is only for the mentally tough guys.. I will explain in detail in my coming posts and will share you with what I am doing..

Less Carb doesn't mean No Carb...

buffy — Mon, 09 Jul 2007 20:58:45 GMT

I think when people hear something has carbs they automatically think it is bad for them. There is a distinct difference between cutting back on carbs and not eating any at all, just as there is a difference in what kinds of carbs you choose for your body. For me, it isn't about not eating carbs, but rather choosing whole grains and fruits that power my body up for workouts and a full day of work. I am still working on the balance and some days are better than others. While I completely agree that we must get more lean protein in our bodies, I do not think we have to totally extinguish carbs or eat them at such low levels as some plans prescribe. Certainly, I would be open to other thoughts on my opinions.

How can I deal with my diet addiction?

bsalmons — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 11:39:43 GMT

I have been dieting for 15 years now and I can’t stop. I’ve tried every diet there is and, even though not even one has worked, I just can’t stop. I keep telling myself that one should work, so I try another and another. How can I stop? Please help!

Could fasting or skipping meals help me lose weight?

deboramcna — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 14:11:37 GMT

I’m trying really hard to lose weight and I sometimes skip breakfast so I can reduce my calories. I’m also trying to eat less and even if I’m hungry, I don’t snack. I eat two meals a day but it doesn’t seem to work. What more can I do?
