  1. Run HCG for a bit before stopping the AAS then taper off the HCG. Gives the testes a head start on recovery.
  2. Few more tidbits: Energy is 'the capacity to do work.' This definition is very specific. It is has nothing to do with some colloquial uses such as 'feeling' energetic or a person having 'positive' energy. 'Energy' drinks often contain little to no food energy but are instead stimulants. Stimulants may make stored energy more available but are not a source of energy themselves. In the context of food, we use the 'Calorie' measurement for food energy. Spelled with a capital 'c" denotes a kilocalorie (amount of energy required to raise the temp of one kilogram of water by one kelvin/degree celsius). This is an older unit of measurement; the modern unit is the Joule. One kcal is equal to 4.19 kilojoule. A pound of bodyfat contains about 3,500 Calories (kcal). A pound of pure fat contains 4,086 Calories. The difference is that bodyfat also contains some water. Energy cannot be created or destroyed - only converted from one form to another at no more than 100% efficiency. Energy is also conserved. This is why you cannot lose weight by eating more calories or vice versa(all else being equal). The human body can turn protein into carbs (glucose) and carbs into fat but cannot do the same in reverse. So protein is a more versatile macro. Carbs themselves do not make people fat. It is the calories that carbs contain that contribute to excess energy intake that cause it. Complex vs simple carbs is an outdated classification. Use GI instead. Test on Monday. ?
  3. I don't think those values are on the 100 glucose scale. Glucose powder is listed as 138. Parsnips 139? Fettucine only 46? Think that is the old white bread scale...
  4. Exactly. It is the gym management that needs to set and enforce policy. If the level of noise was exceeding what was acceptable then the random member could have asked the deadlifter to stop and/or gone to management. Instead, random gym member took it upon himself to address the situation by assaulting the deadlifter. Innapropriate period. The deadlifter would have been in his legal right to defend himself and as it stands has a basis to press for criminal charges and file for damages in civil court.
