I think they give you a MUCH lower quality of grad education.
If it’s the best you can do, perhaps it’s better than nothing.
But if you’re really serious about getting the most out of grad school (rather than just getting the diploma) then you should investigate “real” grad school.
Bottom line - Im a big fan of authentic experiences in life. You simply won’t get the full experiences you’re meant to have if you’re unwilling to re-tool your life to accomodate and support the genuine path.
1st of all I would like to thank you for putting out that awesome ? No Nonsense Nutrition ? DVD. That DVD is like a bible to me! This passed summer I was going to compete in a Mr. Russia fitness model competition. I needed to look good, so my friend and trainer Xavier recommend for me to try your methods of leaning down. So we purchased the DVD and went from there. In about 6 weeks I was 20lbs lighter, I felt healthy, happy and satisfied with my build. So thank you for that!
I am currently training for a Fitness Model Expo competition that?s going to be happening in June ?05. I am currently 5’11" 217lbs at about 12% BF. My goal right now and for the next 5 month is to pack on as much lean muscle mass as possible while keeping my BF% as is. In the last 2 weeks i went from 214lbs to 217lbs. I noticed a little gain of softness around my face and abdominal area, as well as around my pecs. How should I be attacking this bulking up phase that I?m in right now, I?ve started back in Sept. If you would like the details of my current nutrition and training plan, let me know i will post it up or e-mail it to you. You can also see my thread on here at this link. http://www.t-nation.com/readTopic.do?id=514501
What are your opinions on calorie cycling to keep hormones in peak condition and the body on it’s toes?
I prefer slow and steady to win the race AND ONLY IF IT"S NOT WORKING do we fool with cycling etc. When in doubt use the simplest method! Then, and only if the simplest method doesnt work, do you make it more complex!
If you’re strictly following a ME Reloaded type protocol, in which you’re eating <10g of fat over ~8 hours (two pre-wo, ~6 post), even longer if you then go to bed, what effect does this have on the digestion of fat-soluble vitamins (A D E K) that are absorbed with the help of dietary fat?
I don’t think it’s a problem. (Thats my way of saying the answer would be take too much time to include here however I may write an article about this).
BTW, glad you like the training stuff! We’ll have more of that coming up for sure. Actually the smart ass from above (Carter Schoffer) should be publishing some training articles here in the near future. He’s the SL S&C guru and he’s good!
Interesting article topic - can I use your girlfriend’s friends as study subjects? If they look anything like the girl in the pic you sent (Im assuming that’s your girlfriend), I’d be glad to do a thorough assessment with them. You have good taste in women, my friend
As far as diabetics, my 7 habits article would help diabetics tremendously. Type 2 diabetics get into trouble precisely because they don’t follow the good nutrition habits we take to be true.
If they start, their problems will reverse themselves.
These Q/A are great and have a compounding effect on everyone I’m sure. Well done JB.
Why is most lunch meat bad?
and,
if you have a 1st degree AC Sprain does it cause any muscle imbalance or muscle/shoulder problems? Is there anything you can do to supplement it with calcium and/or glucosamine to force it to heal faster immediately after the injury occurs. My friend was wrestling and got tossed on his shoulder recently. I told him I would ask while hes out of town and call him.
I have an *important question now…
I am always looking for ways to become more coordinated and athletic. I already have good hands when it comes to catching footballs, but on occasion I still drop a few balls that I get upset about. What exercises can I do that will allow me never drop balls?(become a freak literally) Power Drive has helped my focus but as you mentioned athletes may need more than the two servings? How much more to really have a great impact?
Creatine timing isnt important. Add it to Surge or whatever.
As far as bikes…Right now I’ve got an old Yamaha XS11 but as soon as I set foot in Austin Im heading to the BMW dealer and picking up the new GS1200. That bike kicks ass.
(I’ve ridden a wide variety of bikes…Vulcans, Fat Boys, Sportsters, Heritage Softails, Old and New BMWs, Triumph, etc and my all round fav is the BMW GS series).
It sounds like you don’t need much help from me. Use the DVD concepts (The Science Link Individualization - Outcome Based Decision Making) and you’re golden!
