If you’re still having issues with the food intake (and it sounds like you are), you might want to consider increasing your Zinc intake. Chris Shugart suggested that to me in the LiveSpill awhile ago, and I’ll say it definitely helped. Obviously run this by zraw first, but it’s an idea.[/quote]
What does zinc help with?

Wish I could give you a good answer.

The livespill conversation went pretty much like this:
Me: I have a very low appetite, is there something I should be doing with my training to change it?
CS: If you’re having appetite issues, you should take more zinc.
Me: What about changes to my training to stimulate appetite?
CS: Just take the zinc.

I know that doesn’t help. However, my appetite improve once I started taking 50-100mg of zinc a day.

So I don’t post much but have been following this because HT is a beast and it’s inspiring to watch his become even more beastly. The past few days, though, all the pictures started displaying as T-Nation icons. Am I the only one this is happening for? My apologies in advance if I just didn’t catch a rather obvious explanation.

Does anyone know why all the pics posted on T Nation appear as the T Nation logo on my computer ?

Is this jihad from my computer or from T Nation?

New program, HT. Some should look familiar. Same concepts as the last phase, just a little different layout

A1. 6-Way Raise- 8-12 reps
A2. Prone Rear-delt Raise w/hard flex- 8-12 reps
A3. Slight-Decline Dumbbell Bench w/3 second negatives+hard flex- 8-12 reps

B. Swiss Bar Bench against Chains- See Chart

C1-3. Bicep/Tricep Giant Set- As many total reps/exercise as possible in the given range in 10 minutes

;ooks good strong.

nothing new to report, but my daily weights after hitting an all time low of 205 (from earlier post) has maintained from 207-209. no changes visible from the mirror, so no need to post more pics. ’

measurments, being lazy again, just know that the heat has kicked in, and i have broken out my shorts and other various summer wear and it fits on me like a tent, i will need to go shopping as i think i have probably went down another pant size.
