    Spaghetti squash

    This is similar, if not the same, to a type of pumpkin that my Portuguese in-laws grow to use in a type of sweet. I think you might find it difficult to grow in a pot on a balcony as they have long runners. I've tasted the sweet and it is pretty bland, they also add quite a bit of sugar. I...

    Need Advice for 2 exercises.

    This must be a small work/apartment block gym. You should be able to perform the dead lift and one arm bent over rows, using the Smith machine.

    Diabetes treatment may lie in helping muscles to burn fat better

    Interesting article: Diabetes treatment may lie in helping muscles to burn fat better 28 January 2009 -- Scientists in Sydney and Melbourne have produced results that could silence the current debate about exactly how fat molecules clog up muscle cells, making them less responsive to insulin

    I found the uncle Toby's oats taste much creamier than the home brand variety, when prepared the same way on the stove top

    What do you do differently when you try to cut down on the body fat%

    I find it funny when non-alcoholics rhapsodise about how you can avoid a hangover. If you want bodybuilding advice, you ask someone who has lots of muscle. If you want hangover advice, you ask an alcoholic. EVERYTHING in the right quantities gives you a hangover, a hangover means you perform...

    One food for one year...

    Check this out, tuna is safe to eat and not a significant source of mercury poisoning: CHOICE - Test: Canned tuna (archived)) I'm not a fan of this question, eating just one food type for an entire year would probably kill you, unless you broaden the category and allowed two groups (i.e...

    My image is also way off. I imagined you as skinny, trying to build muscle, half Asian wearing a singlet and a white baseball hat.

    Pervs in the Gym

    No comment ;-) But for weight loss amphetamines are very effective, in less regulated countries like India they are used over-the-counter. Does this thread have anything to do with what originally started it anymore (Other than the fact that all the blokes commenting in this thread are purvs...

    Pervs in the Gym

    You are right again, kindred! Rather than look good through diet and weight training they should concentrate on eating disorders and cigarettes ;-)

    Pervs in the Gym

    A lot of girls do do 'pump', and the ones that go regularly look great. When I first started reading this forum I remember some bloke said "I want to start lifting weights but I don't want to get too big", the answer was a classic "don't worry, you won't"

    Full day workout and food please help

    That still seems excessively high. I see blood pressure that high occasionally at work, and they are generally from people who've just had a stroke. A stroke is VERY bad, to be avoided at all costs. The highest mine has been is 150/90, due to drinking too much everyday, very little exercise...

    Full day workout and food please help

    That's insanely high. I'm a nurse so BP is my bread and butter, I wonder why it was that high. That's stroke territory.

    Yes, you can also turn fat to muscle through Alchemy.

    Full day workout and food please help

    My personal preference would be to work out legs twice a week and leave chest/arms to just once, the arms get worked out two or three times anyway (chest, shoulders and back exercise work arms). Also, you need to work your shoulders as well, you can do that on leg days, but I find I get too...

    Raw Egg White

    Looks like it's pasteurised anyway, no salmonella risk.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for my Back/Chest day?

    Why do you think the dumbbell flye is ineffective? At the top of the axis it is easier, but I wouldn't say it is 'ineffective'. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/871VTEF7qIY&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen"...

    Whats the dif between standing military press and seated military press?

    Or if you are tall and the ceiling in your gym is too low, the seated military press is the only option. Unless I want to go outside :-)

    Raw Egg White

    I think there is a small risk of salmonella by eating raw eggs, but I believe this has been grossly exaggerated by the media (I have no reference for this, if you are interested enough you will Google it). How much was this carton? I have never seen this in Coles.
