Re: TB2/Conditioning for P.A.R.E

Good Evening All, I've achieved halfway decent numbers in my lifting (210 BP / 330 SQ / 400 DL) @ 185lbs but have been woefully negligent in my conditioning. To remedy this, I purchased TB2 Conditioning to mix in with my lifting as I will be applying to Department of Fisheries and Oceans (Canada). ...

Re: Do Your Roadwork!

I remember the video you are talking about. GSP was definitely ahead of his time and one of the first examples of an mma training camp being completely tailored to a fighter, similar to how boxers will be the sole focus of their own training camp. GSP travelled all over the place to get the best tr...

Careful with the BCAA lads....depletes serotonin/tryptophan and tyrosine (dopamine): http://suppversity.blogspot.ca/2013/08/the-neurotransmitter-depleting-effects.html Better off sticking with a complete protein.

Re: BCAAs vs Whey Protein...What's the Difference?

i'm going off memory here and incomplete knowledge and understanding. i believe protein breaks down to amino acids, and the common advice of 1g/lb of protein is in part to get the appropriate amount of amino acids to rebuild muscles. what you're really trying to do in eating/drinking that much prot...

Re: PFT Tips Thread

This from PPLE or TB2, worth bringing attention to:

Stop all training 3-4 days out. You're not going to improve within that time frame, your training is all behind you at this point. Take the time to recover and allow the adaptations from your training to take effect. Walking and stretching is okay.

BCAAs vs Whey Protein...What's the Difference?

From what I understand, whey protein is a complete protein that includes BCAAs. So what's the purpose of using BCAAs pre or during workout instead of just whey with water? What do BCAAs do for you that whey doesn't?
