ScrewIt, I can relate to you about the appetite thing. I've found that the biggest factor for me is my schedule. If I keep a consistent sleeping/eating schedule, I can eat every 2 hrs no problem. If I get busy with work or other things and my schedule gets screwed up, I won't be hungry and won't...

I can't imagine having to raise a kid now. I think of things in terms of the time investment, and in this case, the quality of life for the kid as well. There is no absolute set of morals that everyone subscribes to. People do not all think and make decisions in the same way, and no one has...

Nice post Alex. Do you have any suggestions for pre-workout nutrition? I remember reading one source that suggested fast-absorbing protein before working out and slower-absorbing after. I've also read a suggestion to drink a shake or something during the workout. Also, what about energy...

Casino, take a step back and look at yourself. What kind of guy gets an ego boost from crapping on fuglies? Why does it warrant a detailed post on here? Who goes to extra effort to create an a-hole persona for himself? Ask yourself those questions.

I have two sawhorses that I use. They're a bit wobbly, which helps the stabilizer muscles I guess. They're easy enough to make.

Yeah, that's pretty hardcore. I was kinda expecting a little bit more by the title, like wrestling a bear or something. But this comes pretty close.

Derek is skeptical of this site because it has the look and tone of similar sites that are garbage. Conspiracy theories can sound very legitimate because they pull together truths that are not necessarily related and present them in a larger context as being related. They also tend to omit...

A little more info for those interested... In the last few days I've been going for 3000 cal, 210 g prot (that's weight * 1.5 prot as suggested in the sticky, and Alex, I've seen you suggest 1.5-2x, and I'll probably try that). I think the most I've done is 3500/220. The limiting factor for me...

A couple years ago I was around 6', 120 lbs, so I've been there. I read about weight gain and improved my eating habits. Within the past few months I've tried to adopt better habits. Make sure you read all the stickies on here. I can't add anything that hasn't already been said, but the...

Appreciate the responses! Manuva, that's helpful info. Alex, yeah, I'm trying to up my protein intake (avg 2500 cal, 170 g prot per day). I've seen your suggestions about that in several other threads.

I'd be classified as an ectomorph. I'm currently 6' and around 140 lbs and progressing slowly, but eat well and work out regularly. I found some information that indicates that people with high metabolism should eat carbs with a low glycemic index for the slow-burning characteristic. I read...
