The use of a mixed grip, then twisting of the wrist to a normal grip after the bar is "cleaned" makes me cringe....

My cheat meal got a little carried away yesterday. The future father-in-law, brother-in-law and I went fishing all day yesterday. I packed all my clean food in a cooler, but after a few whisky and waters, I said, "fuq it." When we got back, we went to Mexican and I got a big ass fish bowl margarita and fried fish tacos Needless to say, my progress has been set back a little #zerowillpower

How Much Protein Can the Body Absorb?

By Monica Reinagel, MS, LD/N, CNS

The precise amount of protein at which the muscle-building effects peak will vary from person to person, of course. Someone with a very large or muscular body, or someone who is engaged in heavy workouts might be able to use a little more protein than someone who is smaller or not as athletic. But, in general, if building muscles is your goal, you're probably better of spreading your protein intake out among all of your meals than by eating the entire day's allowance at one meal.

However, those who claim that all of the protein you eat is utilized are also right - because building muscle is only one of the things that our bodies use protein for.

Remember Tinker Toys? It's a collection of sticks and wheels that you can put together to build anything you want. You could build a Tinker Toy house, for example. Then, you could take apart the house and reconfigure the same pieces into an airplane.

Protein is sort of like the body's Tinker Toy set. Every protein is made up of special molecules called amino acids, which are like the individual Tinker Toy pieces. When you digest protein, your body breaks it down into the individual amino acids and then uses them to build enzymes, hormones, immune factors, transport and storage molecules, and all kinds of other useful things, including bigger biceps.

Protein is an essential nutrient because you can't get amino acids from fats or carbohydrates. No amino acids, no enzymes. No enzymes, no life.

When the stakes are that high, it's not surprising that the body prioritizes its use of amino acids. Survival first; six-pack abs second. But when the body has all the amino acids it needs, protein can also be used as an alternative source of energy or calories. In other words, if you have some Tinker Toy pieces left over after building your house, you can burn the extras for heat!

And this is the sense in which all of the protein you take in does get utilized. Protein beyond what your body needs to replenish its amino acid pool (or can put to use for muscle building) is metabolized into glucose and used for energy. And whenever you have more food energy than you need, the surplus is stored as fat. Nothing is wasted.

I rec'ed the MP combat yesterday in the mail. I got the 4lb tub in milk chocolate. I drank some last night after my workout and then this morning before I came to work. Last night I mixed it like I have always done with the ON, stir it with a fork once I put the milk in. It would stick to the fork a little but not much. The combat doesn't mix as good as the ON with a fork it leaves some clumps. This morning I mixed it in our bullet and it mixed really good but its foamy like anything you mix in the bullet or atleast in my experience. Taste is good, seems a little sweeter than the ON but still have a really good flavor. I guess thats the only review I can say about it so far. Wish ON would have a blend like the combat is.

dwalden2 · Apr 5, 2014

Sinuses started bothering me Thursday, had a terrible workout. Then yesterday I felt worse and didn't go to the gym at all . I feel like a terrible person for not going. Tryin to decide if I feel good enough to go today and have a decent workout. There's no point goin if I get there and half-ass everything...
