Added on August 23, 2009, 10:18 pmthanks man
it just confirms my understanding
it didnt say anything about fructose/sucrose/glucose and orange juice is just a fine product to create a soluble environment for creatine similar like nay other juices unlike the common beliefs

bro, about that...i think, it's a minor details whereas wether you take it together with dextrose, glucose or fructose, it's acceptable and will still function as per normal and optimum...

yeah
im thinking the same way
it can be taken with anything actually
but stronger insulin reactors will illicit effects faster thats all

IT costs about RM50 for a bottle that can last for 2 months. I'd take the investment.

hei guys i have seen this glucolin gluckosa(the package name and it's blue colour) and i wonder shud i buy and add it to my pre-workout protein shake and post-workout protein shake ? My pre and post workout shake contains of ON 100% whey and creatine...

Haha, thats what I was planning to do. Thanks man!

What's your goal?

If it's fat loss then the shake should not be taken before cardio.

If it's muscle building then it should be taken to prevent muscle loss during cardio (but I don't really care because how much muscle can you lose? it's not like we're gonna lose 10lbs of muscle. i'd say get our 6 meals right, lift right and sleep right and stop worrying bout minor details like this one )



Back to the issue of fructose and insulin spikes, fructose only has a GI of 38. I read somewhere that the maximum figure for GI measurement is 100 but Vitargo is said to be 7 times faster than sugar and sugar has a GI of 100

But what I'm trying to say is that while fructose is able to create an insulin spike, it wouldn't be as effective as say, glucolin. Furthermore, 4 tablespoons of glucolin contain 88g of carbs. We would have to consume 4 cans of 100Plus to obtain that

So I was given a lecture on Saturday by a consultant Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist about the whole problem of snoring. Unwillingly, for I was there for something else. The main problem it seems, is obesity, and how this causes all sorts of the strangest things you can think of. I can't quite remember what it meant, but "metabolic disease" sounded really cool.

Anyway, you will be glad to know that

1. The medical community's understanding of bodyweight is way more primitive than ours. He kept talking about absolute bodyweight. There was no awareness of bodyfat percentages. He kept referring to medical studies that made use of shirt collar measurements or abdominal girth as measures of obesity. Don't they have Tanita scales?

2. His prescription in losing weight is this: Atkins + aerobic exercise. No concept of skinny fat. No mention of resistance exercise. Oh and of course: Reduce fat intake!

3. He said a survey found that the average woman will go through 360 diets in a lifetime.

4. No awareness of the fact that more muscle mass increases metabolic rate permanently and thus helps in fat burning.

5. They are very primitive about how to go about losing weight. I think BB'ers are absolute pros in this field.

6. Incredible inventiveness has been invested by university hospitals in creating symptomatic cures to the problem. This doctor invented a surgery to enlarge the cavity at the back of the throat to make breathing easier for the obese. He sells it for RM 8k. About 30 mins work for him.
(Now you know why they are primitive at helping patients lose weight. They don't make any money off that!)

Main goal right now is fat loss, I've bulked up quite enough for the time being I guess, next step is to get rid of all the excess fat. And yes, no more shakes before cardio! Felt so nauseous when I did that yesterday, could have puked any time!

Did a little test to see how much strength i lost on my current diet and workout!

Bench press-
-70kgsX10
-80kgsX9
-90kgsX7

Didn't dare to go higher as i was tired and i might need a spotter.

Result-Not sure i can push 100kgs

Dumbell BP-
-40LbsX12
-50LbsX10
-60LbsX8
-70LbsX8

Result-Nothing changed,can still move the same poundage

Pullover-
60LbsX15
70LbsX10

Result-Loss of endurance


Seems quite ok to me.

Doctors, don't sell health. They sell drugs to "better" your health. I honestly think they're the wrong people to go to for absolute health discussions. Even my friend from Harvard admits that. He says that medical journals say massage and protein is the devil, but even he says you can ignore their ideas. After all, medical reports say that steroids doesn't help improve muscle and strength, until 1985. Steroids have been around since the 1930's. That's about a 50 year period of time, they took to figure something that bodybuilders and weightlifters have proven.

There's a saying; "Science, just goes further to prove what the coach already knows."

Aih the reduce gas thing is a really huge plus point for the HCl. But tak berani try lah. Lol. Sounds damn good though.

Guys I went to this chinese tukang urut and she said that my back prob is kinda serious and recommended pilates.

Anyone here doing pilates?

hahahhaha.. this might look dam slow.. now i know why when i asked about supplement ,Budak84 name comes out..

Finally seen the thread huh? LOL. I was stun-ned with his posts. Thought he was joking.

But his passion is simply amazing.

Anyway, I bought a few bb magazines from Cineleisure for fun. 2 FLEXes and 1 Planet Muscle. Freaking cheap.

As for FLEX, I would say that the ads take up about 75% of the entire mag. And TEAM MUSCLETECH guys appear everywhere especially Jay Cutler. Guess the passion came from there

Time magazine August 17th issue:
Why Exercise Won't Make You Thin

Holy schmoly! The whole thing talked about losing weight and nothing about body fat percentage.
I'm beginning to think it's a conspiracy to let people become fat and diabetic by the pharmaceutical companies. LOL!

but he way he reply comment to other post is really berlagak one. hahahha. full of passion and ego

Read about that, Men's Health published another online article to debunk the whole thing, lol.

Ok so these posts from both of you really piqued my curiosity. I searched up Budak84's history and..... what in the name of sweet Mary and Joseph is he trying to say in all of his posts? I don't understand anything he said. It's all so... jumbled up and incoherent.

he is a jerk... zzzz
