While the cubed raw fish dish poke has been a staple in Hawaii for decades, it has only recently infiltrated the rest of the country—via customizable poke bowls. But is this trendy specialty a better choice than a spicy tuna roll?
That depends, according to...
I’m getting into powerlifting but still want to stay lean. Is high carb intake essential for strength athletes?
Strength athletes typically require fewer carbohydrates than endurance athletes because the carb requirements are mainly determined by the time, or duration, spent training and the...
So I've been dealing with this weird skin problem for a while. My arm pits have been lanced about 30 times to drain these lesions. During the summer it really flares up. Sometimes I wish it was just herpes. You can at least lift with herpes (jk). Anyway, I went and did some tests. And it came...
Love it or hate it, coffeehouse chain Starbucks can be found in almost every country on the globe and on seemingly every other urban street corner.
Its omnipresence is great when trying to fuel up before the gym or get some post-workout protein in, and, as a bonus, its selections are remarkably...
Burger King and the Whopper have been around for a long time in the U.S.—the chain opened in Florida in 1954, and the iconic burger hit the flame broiler soon after in 1957. As with most fast-food joints, you’ll find the cleanest protein and best nutritional value in its grilled chicken...
Fresh out of high school in 1983, Jimmy John Liautaud started a sandwich shop in an Illinois garage. The shop has since grown to almost 3,000 stores—with plans to build up to 5,000 in the near future—and Liautaud is still the chairman of the board.
Today Jimmy John’s is known for fast and...

also not really worrying about carbs or sugar... just hitting the numbers. feel like success has been pretty good.. attached a pic...
Carbohydrates are very important for stopping the catabolic effect that training causes. Consume them as soon as possible after training—if you go without them for more than a couple of hours after your workout, the window that allows for your best gains closes until your next lift.
There’s...
People often ask me a lot of specific questions regarding protein and carbs, trying to dissect these two vital nutrients in hopes of creating a better nutrition plan. Using a broad brush, one could say that carbs energize the muscles, providing fuel for hard training, and that protein is the...
Been reading about diet and this came up. First time I've ever heard about it. Can you guys that know about it or have used it fill me in on its benefits? Much appreciated brothers.

12-Step Carb Loading Program

Add the appearance of 15 lbs of muscle in one week.
Flex Wheeler was known for achieving drastic changes in his physique in less then 10 days. One reason for this was the implementation of successful carbohydrate depleting and loading. The system...
If you’ve ever dieted for a bodybuilding contest — or for an extended period just to reduce bodyfat — then you know what you want to do right after that: nothing but eat all the decadent foods that you’ve been avoiding for the past couple of months. Sure, that’s one way to follow up a restricted...
Flex Wheeler was known for achieving drastic changes in his physique in less then 10 days. One reason for this was the implementation of successful carbohydrate depleting and loading. The system, which requires large but temporary changes in carbohydrate, sodium and water consumption, can lead...
Myths galore abound in training, but that’s nothing compared to the fallacies that get strewn about on the topic of bodybuilding nutrition, specifically as it pertains to fat burning. One self-appointed diet guru will tell you that carbs act a certain way in the body; however, he’s contradicted...
