Best book on Lifting

Quote from nitro:

A measly 3 pounds from removing the 8 and turning into a 7. I have three more days to do it, but there is like zero delta of it happening. So I will have to be patient. Maybe one more week.

I was busy this afternoon and I forgot to have my usual oatmeal that gives me a bit of a boost before I workout. So I get to the gym and I am starving. They sell me one of these power bars, and it more than did the trick.

Discovered a trick that has helped me a little bit. In order to intensify my workout, I have had to run/walk/run/walk. The hardest part of running is the toll it takes on my knees/legs. So I tried "fast walking" the way those Olympians do, and I was amazed - I am able to go almost indefinitely in that style without tiring, and the reading on the treadmill is definitely cranked.

I took a picture of myself with my head cut off, but I though better of uploading it since I don't want killer to get all steamy.

If I were looking to lose weight and needed an energy boost before working out, I'd consider having a cup of coffee rather than a chocolate bar, whatever fancy name it may go by.

Really? What if it is within the caloric intake for the day? I have heard that pre workout protein and post workout protein is ok?

I'm not the science guy, but I don't see the point of ingesting protein just before working out. I've always had my best workouts hours after a light meal. And I'm not even looking to lose weight. The idea of having a sugar-rich "power" bar before working out wouldn't even enter my mind. However, I have had a regular coffee on occasion shortly before working out. Perhaps those more knowledgeable on this topic will chime in with their opinions.

As for remaining within your caloric intake, I think there are better ways of doing so. Out of curiosity, could you list the ingredients of this power bar and its nutritional breakdown?

My gawd man, it is not even in the same ballpark. But hey, we all have different tastes. Thank gawd or we would all be after the same woman.

Different strokes, but that chick from Bones is ghastly when compared to C. Bell in her prime.
