http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1467-3010.2010.01871.x/full Lots of confounding factors in a lot of the studies (like not differentiating between processed and unprocessed meat which obviously makes a difference). Overall though, "There is no evidence that a moderate intake of lean red meat, when consumed as part of a healthy balanced diet, has any negative health effects." And at least the vege/vegan thread went away.  | ||

Sure.... but can't you just use the top of the squat rack frame to do pullups? Most cage squat racks have a bar up top or at least part of the frame you can hold onto? | ||

Squat - 275lbs (+10): 4-3-3 Deadlift - 305lbs (+10): 2-1-1-1-1 Didn't feel the strength to do benches so wussed out Dumbell Flies: 35lbsx10, 40lbsx5, 40lbsx5 Dumbell Press: 40lbsx5 Pullups: BWx8 (+4) Factors contributing to failure: 1) Lack of rest (been getting ~5 hours of sleep the last few days) 2) Lack of recovery (Maxing out on Powercleans on thursday midnight) 3) Lack of proper shoes (inexcusable) 4) Being in a rack I hate - the one below, b/c I don't feel freedom of movement in it. ![[image loading]](http://thekillerj.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/squat_rack.jpg) Gonna think about taking a light week to recover, or soemthing along those lines...  | ||

Pain is another matter. Distinguish between the two, and if you feel actual pain rather than fatigue/soreness, stop immediately and get it checked out. | ||

My wrists hate me on pressing days since I suck at keeping them steady. | ||

Squat 155x3x5 today (very hard) and Deadlift 160x5 (decent). So all in all a good workout. Tried to Bench with the Smith Machine, but my shoulder was not convinced. I have been doing a lot of shoulder dislocations lately and I felt that they helped quite a bit, but if so, it's not enough until now to bench again. At least Dips are possible, that's a start. | ||

What I used to do was find a doorway and hold on to the frame for chinups. Alternatively you can find a horizontal pole (like one to hang clothes on), go to a playground with bars, etc. | ||

My fitness regime consists of 80% cardio/fatburn/interval exercises on my bike, or in the gym on the rower and cross trainer, and only 20% weight training. This thread seems geared heavily towards an emphasis on weight training, and specifically free weights which I almost entirely ignore... What are the advantages and disadvantages of the regimes outlined in this thread, compared to my current one? What exactly are you doing currently? what people refer to as "cardio" and "intervals" can have drastically different meanings | ||

Fat loss is mainly reached in the kitchen and while cardio certainly helps out it doesn't give anything for building muscle. Weightlifting on the other hand will build muscle and with certain lifts (or added cardio sessions) plus a good diet you get all three: muscles, good cardio-vascular fitness and leanness. | ||

http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0018604 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-13134292 lol@ BBC article jabs at ketogenic diet "Diabetes UK said it was "questionable" whether humans could sustain the diet." "The highly controlled diet, which is 87% fat, mimics the effect of starvation and should not be used without medical advice." "Dr Iain Frame, director of research at Diabetes UK, said: "This research was carried out in mice so it is difficult to see how these results would translate into any real benefits for people with diabetes at this stage. "It is too simple to say that kidney failure could be prevented by diet alone and it is also questionable whether the diet used in this model would be sustainable for humans, even in the short term." Funnily enough... ketogenic can reverse diabetes altogether IF the damage done to various organs is not too severe. But these comments are pretty hilarious since it's like the "diabetes organizations" didn't know about ketogenic diets beforehand? Come on now. It's just ignorance. The traditional diabetes diets actually probably cause diabetes. | ||
