i think its mostly protein , but about a litre of thick oil comes out when i cook it. wth is all that oil? o.O i just put my plate on a slight angle, push the beef to the top, and let some of the oil droop down to the bottom of the plate so i can eat around it -_- | ||

 Ok, I have to admit, I'm no one to complain; I don't really look at my eating habits. Yeah, I try to eat more healthy (I try to get my weight DOWN) but sometimes I just am too lazy to cook and then there is the pizza service... | ||

 no idea if itll help though but a good as any time to try. i just hope to god its not related to dairyits not really gym related but it is nutrition and general health, so i wonder if any of you know someone whos had to deal with this? its "possibly" helped by low carb diet, which the "possible" fungus is "possibly" supposed to thrive on, which isnt helpful when you're bulking | ||

Essentially it comes down to the fact my hamstrings are too stiff to actually squat. So that's the first thing that needs to get resolved. however, he doesn't say how to stretch hamstrings other than "do it", so do you have any advice? Essentially in the squat section he says that there are certain negative things caused by unflexible hamstrings. I'm experiencing everything, which makes my squat form shittastic. I used these stretches to improve my flexibility when doing squats. I don't know if all of them helps to squat but I did them anyway  the first vid is probably the best way to improve flexibility for squatting. You can also put your elbows against your knees and push out. | ||

i just found something fascinating... have you ever heard of "oil pulling"? its a traditional indian treatment where you swish sunflower oil round your mouth for 15 minutes every morning, apparently it cures just about everything (woman said it grew back her teeth). its supposed to suck out toxins from your body into the oil, which you spit out after 15 minutes. http://oilpulling.com or google it or google "oil pulling dermititis" | ||

I dont trust any "treatment" that is supposed to free your body from "toxins" and whatnot. but maybe there is some science behind it, we will have to wait for eshlow :p | ||

I like to use anything I can get from mince, leg, ox tail basically any cut that needs to cook a long time and is rather cheap. they have more flavour. buy dry beans like soy, black, red, chickpeas etc and soak. cheap and taste better. defrost 1kg chicken breast (around 4) and let all the water drain out. do this like 1 day before. my recipe that i freestyle every time and always comes out different in a bigass pot: 1kg mince beef medium heat fry slowly. drain fat. push the meat away from the bottom and fry some crushed garlic, crushed ginger, diced onion, diced carrot, diced celery, LOTS of black pepper, chili flakes, salt, tomato pure just to make it taste better. add your meat now cut into big chunks and brown them up. then add whatever "sauce" I have in the fridge which is usually a combination of ketchup, pasta sauce, chili sauce, chipotle, some chinese XO sauce shit and then add a box of ready to eat bean chili (canned chili) which you can usually buy pretty cheap, just a mix of beans in some flavoured sauce. I like to add this because it gives it a nice authentic flavour. then add the presoaked beans because not enough beans duh. then I add my usual suspects like 2 star anise, 1 cinnamon stick, teaspoon sichuan pepper, a couple bashed cardamom and give it a big stir. then simmer that shit for 2-3 hours. now you can cut up your chicken and mix them into the goodness. 15min is enough. then i divide it all up into lunch boxes and freeze. shit is delicious and you can eat it with rice, pasta, bread. lots of tender meat and chicken and beans. everytime i cook this my friends knock on my door saying the whole corridor smells awesome. | ||

I dunno the weights available for lbs to buy the same like Sinep's suggestion. 4x25lbs 4x30? 35? lbs 4x50lbs 2x60?65?lbs so is this a good set of weights to buy? can someone confirm is this is correct or something. thanks. Usually the highest "standard" weight plate in lbs is 45. If I were buying weights, i'd want to following: 2x 2.5 lbs 2x 5 lbs 4x 10 lbs 2x 25 lbs 2x 35 lbs 4x 45 lbs That's enough to keep your deadlift going for a LONG time (2 plates + 35 + 25 =345 pounds) while still having enough smaller weights to progress your lifts only 5 lbs at a time. If you didn't want so many plates, I suppose you don't really need the 25's for anything, you're just going to max out on deadlift sooner. | ||

Anyways, so the program doesn't rotate like SS does? Like A B A, B A B.. ? How the hell do you increase on dead lift/ OHP then? | ||

Madcow's is more of a program designed to make a powerlifter than anything else, hence the additional attention on the BB bench. | ||

Yeah, see what they say about what you're allowed to do. There's definitely bodyweight stuff you can do if they don't like you lifting weights but we need to know what your restrictions are for your particular surgery. | ||
