Best book on Lifting

  1. Whole Foods house brand in the glass jars (365 brand). My kids seem to prefer the taste of theirs to others. $6.00 for 14 oz. It's great stuff. We use it for everything, but it's a medium-temp oil, so you shouldn't use it for stir-fry cooking and high temps.

    I dissolve 56g of pure COQ10 in 14 oz. of coconut oil. IIRC one tsp is nearly 1g of COQ10.

  3. Do a pubmed search in coconut oil and you can read the actual scientific studies.

    425 Calos burned on the TM. Mild machine workout afterwards.

    Getting into it again. Weight 175 lbs. I think I have lost some muscle, because I don't look leaner. Belly area and "love handles" the most annoying thing on the planet.

    Target, 160 chiseled. BMI and the other one within or close to norm.

    Nitro, you seem like a pretty scientifically minded guy who seeks fact over marketing hype. I think you'd appreciate the way Crossfit is structured and the reasoning behind it.

    Here's an article from the founder of CrossFit and an excerpt from it. Since you're searching and asking questions, you should really inform yourself from the source, not third party opinions.

    http://library.crossfit.com/free/pdf/56-07_Understanding_CF.pdf

    ...The methodology that drives CrossFit is entirely empirical. We believe that meaningful statements about safety, efficacy, and efficiency, the three most important and interdependent facets of any fitness program, can be supported only by measurable, observable, repeatable facts; i.e., data. We call this approach “evidence-based fitness.” The CrossFit methodology depends on full disclosure of methods, results, and criticisms, and we’ve employed the Internet (and various intranets) to support these values. Our charter is open source, making co-developers out of participating coaches, athletes, and trainers through a spontaneous and collaborative online community. CrossFit is empirically driven, clinically tested, and community developed.

  9. So it's a fast/food kind of thing.

    Question: Will you be doing it for a week at a time and, if so, how often do you plan on doing so? Also, do you plan on working out during these grocery savers?

  10. I think you'll find the guests on your obliques to be the last to leave.
