How are you feeling from day to day psychologically?

Do you experience lethargy quite a lot?

Are your sleep patterns consistent every night?

What do you mean by this? and what does Lethargy mean?

They are all symptoms of ovetraining which, if you don't have already, won't be far off.

Raw eggs? damn your keen...

[Cammo 0]

Why the raw eggs?

[ohjoshua 46]

Why the raw eggs?

yeah,well

partly- dont want to denature any of the protein with cooking

(i have to cook my steak a little or its very hard to chew)

partly- if every aspect of my life is intense then its easyer to achieve a higher level of intensity in the gym. its all comparitve.

partly- fun, makes me feel like im in a train em up movie

FYI

What’s the difference between LIQUID and RAW egg whites?

The human body cannot completely and safely digest a raw egg white so if you like to do the “Rocky Routine” with a raw egg or raw egg white in your drink, you are wasting your time, not to mention the threat of Salmonella.

Avidin, an enzyme found in raw egg whites, blocks the uptake of Vitamin B6 (Biotin) causing a vitamin deficiency. You must cook the egg white to neutralize the Avidin and allow your body to safely digest the protein and utilize all its Amino acids.

100% pure liquid egg whites from Egg Whites International, are cooked, and yet kept in a liquid state. They are heat pasteurized and salmonella tested. The pasteurization process heats the egg white to 134 degrees for 31/2 minutes. This proper temperature kills the salmonella and neutralizes the Avidin without damaging the protein, to allow the egg white to be digested safely by the human body.

When you cook an egg white to the point of scrambled eggs, 150 degrees or more, you are overcooking the protein and denaturing the true value of the protein. Therefore, 100% Pure Liquid Egg Whites are “liquid” but not “raw”, making them the purest and most versatile form of protein, known to man, In The Entire World

That was taken from a post in a US forum I visit.

the guy that posted it knows his shit when it comes to nutrition.

[ohjoshua 46]

cheers for advice.

so i was kinda on the right track about not wanting to denature the protein.

didnt know i was blocking the vit B.

live and learn (if the salmonella doesnt kill me )

I've heard that egg whites are the best protein. And yet other places (like here) say that whole eggs give a better protein, and that whey is better still. Anyone know what's correct? Or does it really depend on which product you sell?

How come you do upright rows on back day? And what are the hanging feet hooked poll hugs?

[ohjoshua 46]

How come you do upright rows on back day? And what are the hanging feet hooked poll hugs?

1. maybe I am miss using the word 'upright row'.... what i call an upright row is me standing is a squat postion not paraell but quite low. start position- BB held a couple of centermeters off my knee and follows the the line of my leg (never resting on the leg) to my waist.

this actually mainly hits my traps because they are required to staticly hold the weight above my leg at many points.

2. I dont know this real name of this exercise because I 'invented' it.

( dont doubt the fact that other people have used it in the past, but because i came to the conclusion without aid of the perdesors knowledge I dont have to give them credit)

exercise is basicly opposite to a push up.

for this execise a horizontal hanging poll is used.

both hands grip the poll next to each other (fingers linked if you have grip issues).

Then loop both feet arout the poll

you should now be hanging upside down in a position similar to a push up with legs exented as far as possible.

starting position- arms fully extented

end position - your face is pulled up by your arms to your nose is above the poll on the left side of it and your right peck is touching the bottom of the poll.

each rep is done to ulternate sides.

Note: if you like this try my 3/4 dead shrugs (best overall all body mass building exercise) :pfft:

Yeah, its funny how sales people love to drop the 'b' bomb. They can get away with it very easily as long as they dont use specifics.

example.

"whey protein is the 'best' protein source."

Whey protein may be the best fast release protein (more specificly)

but may be inferor to proteins such as calcium casainate before bed, as cc is a slow release protein.

To me it sounds like he's trying to pimp a supplement more than anything else. Protein is denatured by the HCL in your stomach anyway so trying to save your protein from denaturing isn't the smartest thing to do.

I like my chicken cooked regardless....

nice good insight. I didnt know that for sure.

i can just remeber when i was at uni we did a protein test on a peice of raw lean steak - it came up with a high protein reading.

then boiled it in a beaker- it came up with almost no protein.

this is because the protein is denatured.

but seeing you say our stomach acid does the same thing. It doesnt apear to matter if its cooked or raw. thnx EU

Not at all - he's not from any supp company - he was trying to clear things up between 2 guys that were argueing about it.

Here's a good read.
