I'm just wondering about the 1.5 grams of protein per lb body weight. Do the grams count like say 100 grams of chicken = 100 grams of protein or do they mean the actual protein percentage in the meat which is like 25%?

Actual percentages.

If your diet is 3000 kcal a day and you want to eat 250 grams protein then the total calories from protein is 250 * 4 = 1000 kcal. So 1000 out of your 3000, which is 33%.

Update: I've lost fat and gained muscle. My goal of running 50 miles/week at 7 minute/mile pace has now changed, since after getting a taste of fitness again, I'm not satisfied with leisurely/casual running. So I'm gonna train for an 800m race in April 2010 with a goal time of 1:51. Next week I'll start some more intense training and leave jogging just for recovery days. As long as classes don't interfere with my health and workouts, everything should go fine.

Wow, so do you run a little more than 7 miles a day? You are a tank. ._. I am trying to run non-stop but my weak stamina only allows me to run like 2 miles at most. After that I'll wear out. Does anyone have any helpful running tips? Is it my breathing that's the problem? Or is it my technique? What is it?

Yeah I've got ~5 years experience running cross country and track competitively so it was easier for me to establish a good running routine, since it was more like resuming my routine after a very long break.

When I started running, I was young and still developing physically. I don't know much about starting as an adult. But my general advice would be to find what the hardest run you can do every day is, so you aren't accumulating fatigue, and do that every day. If you're recovering well (food+sleep) then at some point it's going to get easier (maybe 1-3 weeks?). Then increase the pace or distance, so that it's at that max difficulty again, and repeat the cycle. This definitely isn't the optimal program but it works.

Being exhausted after 2 miles without any training definitely isn't abnormal. I don't think there's any reason to worry about your breathing, technique, etc at this point. In fact, breathing and technique are two things that are generally optimized with experience. Again, optimal technique will require more specific things like drills and stretching and strength training, but if you're not seriously competitive, your body's natural ability to optimize movements will suffice.

Well done Nony! Sounds like a good objective buddy, let us know how you progress.

Here is a question I want to through up to the brains here. I buy my protein in 1.5L containers. How many grams is that likely to be? I have only ust realised that when I measure out my protein, I am doing it in mL, which does not equal grams...so I probably have not been getting enough protein...

if it makes a difference, the powder i use is in the ratio 33:6:2 for protein, carb, fat.

any help here would be fantastic.

also, up to 30cm biceps! After 5 weeks of no progress, ive added 2cm in two weeks after the diet revamp. Whoop!

I think it's your fitness. Run more often. Run more often. Run more often. That's really all there is to it.

just measure out 50mL or w/e and put it on a scale imo.
(if you're at home your parents shoudl have a scale for baking purposes, if you live in an apartment... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. well I guess I can weight what I use and the ratio should be roughly the same?)

You'll end up with no muscle mass doing that.

Just had my chest and back waxed. My nipples are so tender right now.

waxed nipples?

As for no muscle mass, the poster didn't ask about muscle. If it's working out for muscle mass, then that's a whole different issue.

If you run heel toe you should strongly consider changing it. Terrible for your joints.


I'm pretty sure that I run with decent form. I've never gotten shin splints before this though. I've ran in track and field for two years with no problems. This is really annoying.

She put wax all over them so the strip would get the hair around. Some sort of sadomasochist.

HAHA awesome energies!!! i too will have this procedure some time in the distant future!!!

i finally got my induction (if you can call it that) at my new university gym....but i overworked that session and didn't go back for 4-5 days :@

i tried squats and deadlifts for the first time after printing out 2 pages of 10pt font instructions to take to the gym with me. they are TOUGH without a trainer for guidance... but i hope to have them down soon. i felt like i was starting to get them right, with my chest out etc. i haven't noticed ANYONE else doing them....which is really annoying and makes me feel like people are staring at me :@

deadlift question: i kinda have a large penis and when i pull the bar up it kinda knocks into my dick and makes it stick out . does anyone else have this problem???? what am i doing wrong...every rep i am consciously trying to avoid riding my dick up with the bar.....

the biggest problem at my gym is there dont seem to be many "small" weights. the olympic size bars weigh 20kg (correct me please) and i have seen 2x 5kg weights and 2x 1.5kg weights that fit them. my first visit to the gym i waited until last to try the barbells and actually dropped one straight onto my neck and got stuck under it i was tired and my brain had shut off

similar, the dumbells have 2.5kg gaps inbetween each other, so i am kinda stuck doing a few reps at 12.5 then giving up and doing a few at 10kg :@

Dead lifts should be done away from that part of your body. It'd have to stick out already to ride it up with the proper form.

Rest position is: shrug up your shoulders, hold the weight with straight arms.
Proper form is: bend at the hips, the gluts and hips head backwords, the weight drops straight downwards to right below your knee caps. Hips should be about right angle at bottom. Back should be perfectly straight.
The lift is: return to rest position while holding back straight. Shrug up shoulders at end.

It's only near the penis in the rest position. I don't know how you're getting the bar under it.

i think
a) possibly my body is crafted in such a way that the rest position pushes the bar under my dick perfectly.
b) i only have 1 pair of shorts and they have netting inside which might contribute to my penis positioning. tried to find new shorts today in the shitty shops but everyone was saying its "off season" now :@
c) probably my dick sticks out anyway.... i always have to hold my dick in when i sit on the toilet (and wonder if other most guys have to do the same - i think they do)
d) obviously my technique is nub and thanks for trying to define the positions. i will also look again on youtube at videos. when im not on a shit computer

Best way to see if you're doing it wrong/right is to get a video of your deadlift and post it up for critique. Side view slightly angled to the front is good if you can.

Suggestion: get form fitting exercize shorts. I guess Energies uses compression pants, I use my cycling shorts.

But as several others have mentioned, it's likely that your form is off.
