DL-Phenylalanine

Quote from Bigpipn:

LMAO, to reply to a piece of literature written by Poliquin with that rubbish is akin to a bug hitting the windshield of a car. You are way out of your league here brother. You don't even have the discipline to complete 2 weeks of Poliquin's dietary suggestions. He is as strict as they come. He trains OLYMPIC ATHLETES.

I'm talking calculus and you run in with Algebra.. Just stop... just stop and go do some more reading...

Humans aren't meant to run 5 miles to catch their food, but rather sprint for 100 meters and throw a rock or an arrow at their food.

Sprinting was merely AN EXAMPLE of HIIT.

Just because you spent 2 weeks studying for your ACE cert doesn't mean you KNOW your industry.

The only time older ladies get hurt lifting weights is when the trainer neglects to address the structural imbalances.

I am NASM certified and I've trained hundreds of clients. If I've learned one thing it's that women have a MUCH higher threshold for pain than men.

You're right, most Americans can't do a sprint workout-most Americans are lazy bums. The point wasn't to do sprints and only sprints as cardio but to do HIIT.

ACE is about as bad as NASM. NASM hides behind a BS veil of intricate language for overcomplicated movements, I should know, I hold 2 of their certs. NSCA is probably the most realistic cert for a trainer, and much harder to attain that the NASM "vocabulary review tests". Too much time spent on "structural analysis" that is COMPLETELY WRONG, in the eyes of most chiropractors and orthopedists. NSCA is far better, I would advise trying to get that cert, as it was my first, and really was helpful. As an NASM practitioner, you should know that HIIT training is at the top of the training cycle, and is not meant for anyone. NASM is a joke, hope you don't take it as gospel, like most of the NASM certified trainers do, it's a waste of the trainer's/client's time and money.

P.S., try running 5 miles sometime, you might be suprised by it's intensity.

WE are all partial to our training certs, big deal, it's a piece of paper, results matter, excuses and meaningless certs don't.

Running 5 miles to a sprinter, human suffering from adrenal fatigue or weightlifter (anyone seeking an optimal physique) is counter-productive.

I can make you puke lifting weights faster than you can taking me on a little jog.

The structural analysis is NEVER over-stated. Adductor weakness has caused severe damage in many long distance runners' knees.

I have no time to break it down for others like they're small children. HIIT is 'at the top of the training cycle' because bottom line it is hard. I don't have time to go through training phases or protocols for coach potatoes.
If you want maximum results you have to put forth maximum effort.

FWIW, I don't take the NASM cert seriously, it is a joke, all of them are jokes because most people are pussies and we have to babysit trainees as they progress up the physical fitness pyramid. Ugh..

Good commentary, always appreciated.

Bottom line is do you run 5 miles to say you run 5 miles or do you run 5 miles because you think it's good for you?

this is thread is worth a bump. From what I've read it's hard to know which is the best: dl-phenylalanine, d-phenylalanine, or tyrosine

Tyrosine is a precursor to Melanin, if you want a better tan maybe that is the way to go...
