'However, this does not apply to the general population, where no study has ever found an association between low-sodium diets and a reduced incidence of cardiovascular or other diseases. Average results from large study groups are not a useful guide to determine optimal treatment for a particular patient. A low fat diet can elevate cholesterol in some even though a mean decrease may occur in a population. An eight-year study of New York hypertensives found that those on low-salt diets had more than four times as many heart attacks as controls with normal sodium intake.'

One of the extracts.

This is exactly same as the cholesterol in eggs myth. Some of them are still perpetuating the myth that fact that too much eggs can harm you while most of us here still pop 10-20 eggs and believe that it isn't harmful. You CHOOSE what you want to BELIEVE and that closes your mind and makes you refuse to accept any other fact besides your own.

Have been training for the past 6 months, using a body part split program, i didn't have any prior experience before that. Not really happy with my progress.

So far, can bench 105lbs , squat and deadlift at 160lbs (bodyweight). Thinking of switching to a 5X5 program, like the one stickied in this forum. I am frankly quite surprised with the volume in the program. Any advice ? i am weighing at 71kg, 176cm btw

Tried Pendlay rows ? i kinda like them, i feel that it doesn't stress the lower back that much compared to normal barbell rows

Why are they crap ? I find it easier to maintain a strict form with pendlays, it's hard , at least for me, to maintain the same angle throughout conventional barbell rows.

Ah, now that explains it, thanks.

think they are at 'stuff for the lads' section, under street mart

EDIT: Food market ! sorry

To china dude and jasoc :

Hey, i would like you to close this tab right now. Stop lurking around here, go to your desk, and get yourself educated. If you feel like it, go do a few push ups, or run a few rounds. You won't be able to learn anything if you can't read/ understand.

eh, the whey tastes like milk ? or tasteless ? if it tastes like milk i would love to give it a go

I personally think it's easier for a fat guy to look massive, than for a skinny guy to slowly build up mass

When are you training ? What about dinner ? there's this big 14.5 hours gap between your last meal and your first

Anyone heard of this before ? Kre-Alkalyn 1500 Plan to ask my friend to help me get this, since it comes with another free bottle of glutamine. it's basically creatine tablets

I eat whey, milk, eggs, tons of meat, TONS of veggies + fruits, have yogurt every night, and my farts still smell like rotten eggs

That's the amount of protein, not the amount of BCAAs. The BCAAs are included as a proprietary blend. Whereas for Xtend they clearly break it down into the respective BCAAs .

how's the taste of the vanilla ? Plan to try the vanilla soon.

Xtend has only BCAAs right ? No stimulants or anything else ?

lol you are in penang ptpl is it ? it is a good offer, taste is decent, but really, you cannot get anything else at that price.

haha, coz that guy who tried to sell you is my friend (i think). Anyway scivation is that cheap because it has more WPC, compared to isolates. Some people argue about the virtues of wpi, but for students, i think scivation gives the best value for money

Me, Suroor. P.s. - A red hot built machine Version 2.0, still under construction.

Instead of dropping the cardio, why not eat more ?

Anyone up for some salad ?
