Which is better for muscle growth - a) pausing 90 seconds after a set in order to manage 12 reps in the next set, or b) pausing just 60 seconds and thereby...
Reading "The Abs Diet" (a Men's Health publication), I came across a sentence which brought me up short: in talking about the evils of high-fructose corn...
Hi John! The inference is incorrect - that statement applies only to HFCS. Fructose - as that contained within fruit (as opposed to the processed white stuff...

IMHO .... like the answer to many strategy question is .... it DEPENDS! It depends on your fitness goals. I believe you would benefit more aerobically from the...
I am with you. This inference sounds strange to me. Perhaps the recommendation came from the same people that would have us ingest lots of protien in order to...
Thanks for the visual. I will be imigining myself in the mountains as I put all of my fruits and leaves into my blender today. Someday I hope to have the same...
It's my understanding that you should wait even longer...Colgan in his New Power Program recommends 4mins rest between sets. The idea being that you want to...
First off sorry (I disappeared from the net AGAIN! damn, those ISP's!!!) First off fructose is a confusing term, it isn't the sugar in ALL fruit, it depends,...
Oh yea, young Dave is right. I should have mentioned that longer than 90 seconds is the friend of the powerlifter :-). For serious contractile fibre growth ...
This would depend upon where you are on your training cycle. The 60 second rest breaks would lessen the weight you can lift, but it would increase your ...
Hi Jeff, running through all the mails I haven't replied to. As Dave said calories are the thing to first check. As you said yourself, you've got leaner. ...
Hello, If you take creatine and then grow... when you stop taking creatine will you revert back? does anyone have any experience with taking creatine and then...
My experience with creatine has been pretty positive. I increased my max weight by about 20% when I was using it regularly. I did not notice any decrease in...
That's brilliant, Pete. And I didn't nod off once. Thanks. While we're on the subject of fruit, I've recently been converted to the benefits of berries - and,...
Berries are a great, very under-rated seasonal fruit. All summer I'm virtually never without some form of berry in the house. I admit they do cost a lot, but...
Here's something I got that will annoy many of you natural endurance athletes (I was asked to pass it about, so here it is). The proposed ban makes no sense...
Here you are: As a note you don't know what training protocol each of them employed, nor how experienced the trainer was. The second study implied some...
Re the second survey about the benefits of aerobic over resistance training: 1) No mention is made of the numbers of people monitored. From long and cynical...
Yeah, this is an interesting subject...what i want to know is how can they tell if someone's been 'using'..? Do athletes have to have cameras in their homes...
Maybe I could get a job as the "Tent police" . Actually though, wouldn't that make me a TP (pronounced teepee:-), damn, I'd have to arrest myself. Oh well...
... hehe - you'll take samples from athletes and test for tent fibres. ;) ... Curse that circular logic! ... Wow - this is so very generous! I can only...
I read some time ago that magnesium-zinc supplementation was looking promising as a means of hypertrophy. Has anyone heard if this research has progressed? -...
Is anyone aware of a multi-vit-mineral supplement which either omits vitamin A (in the form of retinol) or includes it wholly in the form of the A-precursor...
Hi John! Absolutely! - there are many such supplements. Singularly, beta carotene can be a problem, especially for people with lung conditions. Look for ...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think we're labouring under a myth that pea protein and even soya protein contain ample complements of all the amino acids. Both...
Hi John! We would undoubtedly eventually be in trouble if we lived exclusively on one or the other for long periods of time. This is obviously not going to ...

Hello all, what is or what do you all feel is the best cardio exercise, is running better then biking, or the eliptical. I have heard to much about running...
Tikimate- From a pure energy expenditure viewpoint, there is no better "bang for your buck" than running. If your time is limited, you can get a great workout...
