Only problem, is that if you follow his recommendations, you're talking about shelling out $500 a month on stuff...

Hey! You an' the DFA got almost identical fizeeks! 'cept DFA's more like 165-170. And, strange as it may seem for a doctor, the Doc doesn't know his body fat percentage.

 

The more you weigh, the more you gotta haul to the chains!

Yeah I wish I was like rumr and weighed in at about 130, then I'd be a climbing badass!!!

 

I'm 5'10" 148, and there is no reason to hit the weight room! you don't need pumping iron muscles, you need climbing muscles. All these huge dudes come into the gym at western and can't climb a thing. All about the certain muscles

If you can get out climbing 2 or 3 times a week you don't need to lift weights, but if you're a weekend hero like me...it can only help if you don't get too big. I'm 5'8", 180 pounds though...so I'm fat and slow frown.gif

DAILY: multi-vitamin without added iron. glucosamine. vitamin e from vegetable oil. fish oil. caffeine.

rhodiola rosea on occasion.

works for me.

 

btw listing your height weight and % body fat is stupid. so is dissing weight lifting and other supplementary forms of training. the_finger.gif

So...break w/ the secrets! Anybody using Colgan's info?? Anybody??

 

If you are eating a well balanced diet and include MANY of the different colors of vegetables and fruits, you shouldn't need to spend money on supplements. Except maybe a multivitamin. Or calcium if you're a woman.

 

Overloading on specific supplements can create a lot of really expensive pee and poop. And some supplements can also create health problems (BTW creatine is one of them). Not sure what that guy has to say specifically on the subject, but you can literally flush a lot of dough chasing the supplement-yourself-to-get-the-body-you-want dream.

don't a lot of women need iron too? anemia seems a common complaint. more HCL.gif and cheeburga_ron.gif give lots of iron wink.gif

Yes, some (primarily vegetarians) need iron supplements during the time in their life where they are having monthly reproductive cycles. But if a woman eats a well-balanced diet they can generally get eough iron through dietary sources or by cooking in cast iron.

 

With calcium that can be different unless you eat a lot of dairy products. Some of us just can't stomach the stuff.

Why do you take Rhodiola? How did you even hear about it, it'a pretty obscure little supplement.

5'10" and 170-175 equilibrium weight.

 

I've been able to hone my physique to perfection by using the "Eat Whatever the Hell You Can Get Your Hands On That's Cheap" diet coupled with the "Workout at Random Intervals When You Have the Time" program.

What health problem does creatine cause besides gaining 8 pounds of water?

 

Excessive dehydration if you don't drink a lot of water with it. If I remember the discussion from my nutrition class last winter correctly, a few body builders' and I thought a football player's deaths were linked to its use.

I have been taking pure synergy (superfood) for a few years now - that helps by balancing my dietary intake.

 

ingredients

 

But for years, this was the recipe:

 

1. Deadly semen buildup

2. Killer green bud AM/PM

3. caffeine AM

4. alcohol PM

5. Good food

 

It got me to 5.12 tongue.gif
