    Plain cottage cheese is boring...... what to add?

    On the back of my dairy farmers tub is 12.5/100 g of protein. It is meant to be a good slow-release protein to have overnight. It is relatively low in kilojoules as well. I would recommend going for a low fat and low sodium variety (the dairy farmers low-fat cottage cheese seems to be the...

    bicep curls suk

    Interesting, I suffer severe RSI (so much I changed from a computer programmer to a nurse). I feel your pain :-) Best advice, stick with what doesn't aggravate. Anything that doesn't aggrevate is either benine or good.

    Funny stuff you have seen in the gym

    I have done that at home, but only with a standard bar. Doesn't seem to be a problem with Olympic size bars. I have been working out at home for a while, and then I went into the gym and did my barbell biceps curl in front of the mirror. I realised then that my body is completely...

    Are you over 15%bf and still bulking?

    This is a little confusing. Is he saying that you can't gain muscle as fast after you reach a certain percentage body fat, or that you shouldn't gain more than one pound per week (suggesting that if you do gain more than one pound per week the rest of the gain will be fat)? If it is the...

    Try taking it into the bedroom to spice up your love life, instead of whipped cream use cottage cheese!

    Plain cottage cheese is boring...... what to add?

    I don't think this is going to answer your question, because I think you are trying to down it just before bed. But I have replaced ricotta with cottage cheese, so for example if I make a lasagne I use cottage cheese instead of ricotta. Cottage cheese is also great on sandwiches and toast...

    How could you improve this physique?

    Come on Shrek. What's with the thought police? I thought they guy's package was dwarfed by his muscles too. It's an honest comment. And Kindred, you took a peak, don't kid yourself ;-)

    music

    That makes me feel old. The genre of music that was after my time is no longer in vogue. At least not as old as Shrek ;-)

    Best supplements for muscle gain?

    The ancient Greeks also had sex with young boys, so just bear in mind it is important to pick only the good things from an era.

    Does Glutamine live up to the hype?

    Thanks for the info, it is uncommon for people to do research outside of marketing material ;-) I will search for the article, thank you for the heads up.

    music

    As part of setting up my home gym, I want to build a decent sound system. Currently I only have a radio, so that sits on triple J. but I don't find emo conducive to motivate me to destroy my muscles. For that you really do need: Tool, Danzig, Marilyn Manson, slipknot, Pantera I do like lots...

    Back muscle building.

    I've had back problems for a large part of my life, due to an old rugby accident. First and foremost, the best thing you can do is stretch every day. Stretch at least once, in the morning but preferably two or three times. Stretch as if you are stretching your legs out, because this stretches...

    What are peoples opinions of WPC?

    No wonder I had difficulty dissolving it in milk. But seriously, I use WPC (un-flavoured) and have had no problems with it. It is part of my diet and I feel like I am getting good gains. All of my old shirts are now tight around the chest and arms and I am consistently improving technique and...

    Bulking, what's a good meal before bed?

    Tuna, sardines AND 350 g of cottage cheese just seems like a lot of food to have before bed. Sardines and cheese, together at last ;-)

    Bulking, what's a good meal before bed?

    Isn't that a bit extreme, especially because you're only training three days a week? I wonder what your breath was like after you ate the tuna and the sardines. "Goodnight hhhhhhhhhhhhhooney" ;-)

    Dorian's Diet

    There must be a difference between the protein requirements of a body builder using anabolic steroids and one that is not. Most formulas for protein requirements don't have a 'I take steroids' checkbox.

    leg superset

    My idea of a superset was that there was no rest in between sets, but after I did two sets had to stop. If I wake up really sore tomorrow, I'll know it worked good! If it works well might do a giant step on triceps and biceps. I think a bench press/push up superset would work well also.
