Broccoli and carrots, most veges I think have decent amounts of fibre. Veges are good for adding bulk to a diet to help you feel fuller without really adding many calories, plus all them vitamins and minerals etc, mothers always know best eh :pfft: Oats and beans too, I think kumara skin has a fair bit of fibre, all good carb sources too.

And here was me thinking fibre was to keep you regular. :pfft:

You aren't wrong haha but I've also read that it helps burning fat, not sure how though, haven't delved that deep but also with the added bulk, fills you up so you aren't as hungry.

Normally you should get enough fibre but when calorie restricted it can be hard to get all the fibre you need

From memory there is soluble and insoluble fibre. Soluble is in stuff like vegies and oats and fruit and psyllium husk which is what metamucil and all them are made of. And insoluble is like the bran in wheat and the outsides of corn. Thats why they alwyas tell you to eat wholegrain bread coz the bran part of the wheat hasn't been removed. I get confused about which fibre does what but one absorbs heapsa water (i think soluble lol) when being digested so make you feel full and sort of (note sort of) block carbs from being absorbed into the blood stream (thats how they help maintain blood sugar levels). I think its insoluble fibre that has like no calories because it passes straight through without any change (thats why if you eat corn you will see it in your poop :pfft: ). But they both kinda pad out your diet and make you feel full.

Those are some nasty hacks! Are you ATG on them or 90ish?

Not sure about the blocking of carbs, I honestly don't know and haven't done any research but it'd make more sense to me that it would just slower digestion of carbs, lowering the GI of them in turn. It does however decrease the absorption of vitamins so be sure not to take your multi with a fibre supp or anything high fibre

The hacks done to the bump stops on the machine bro prob a little below parallel but not as low as we go on the smith or free.That weight isnt much bro just a good weight for a solid pump and squeeze at the top.

one hour incline walk this morning and that is all for the week time for some fishing:-)

The ones in America look to go lower than that. I don't think full ROM needs to be used on all exercises anyway (even though you were doing the best you could with the machine)

Have fun fishing, my rows will be waiting :twisted:

Yeh it binds with them and blocks them from all being absorbed at once.

Ummmm nope. Doesn't have any affect on vitamin absorption. And actually helps some minerals be absorbed. If that was the case it would be hard for the body to get the vitamins and minerals it needs since most come form vegetables which are high in fibre

I've read that it does lower absorption? How does it aid absorption?
