Pros & Cons of High-Fat and High-Carb Diets
To use stored bodyfat as energy, the body must function in a net energy deficit - i.e. energy consumed (dietary calories) must be
less than the total amount of energy (calories) the body expends. Only when your body bums more calories than you consume will it
draw on stored fat for energy. It is a fine line to walk, however, because if the energy deficit is too great, you will also draw
on stored protein from skeletal muscle and internal organs for energy. This is why it's important to keep protein intake high -
while losing bodyfat - to minimize these losses. If you are familiar with my program, you know that I do not .. read more on HIGH-FAT & HIGH-CARB DIETS »»

Effective Weight Training Techniques for You
Using this method you start with a heavy weight, execute the set to failure, then without resting reduce the weight and repeat. You will continue lowering
the weight and doing additional sets until the muscle is totally trashed. Larry Scott made this system popular with his 'down the rack" dumbell presses. He would start with
the 90-pounders doing 8 to 10 reps, then go down the rack, dropping 10 pounds per set until he could barely do 6 to 8 reps with the 20s. Drop setting is the ultimate training
technique to use to muscularize your body. You will be able to use this system with great ease on selectorized equipment also. It is .. read more on TRAINING TECHNIQUES »»

Understanding the Calves: Calf Training 101
The importance of good calf development for a competitive bodybuilder cannot be overstated. No other bodypart receives such close
scrutiny or comes under more criticism. They can literally make or break you, and poor calf development has been the ruin of many
an otherwise well-developed athlete. Good calf development is essential for balancing the mass of the thighs and torso and is
necessary for a complete and balanced physique. Unfortunately, of all the body's muscles, calves are undoubtedly the hardest to develop, except for those who are genetically
gifted. We use calves when we walk, run, jump, dance or climb .. read more on CALF TRAINING »»

BCAA - Amino for Ultimate New Muscle Growth
A little background: What bodybuilders seek to achieve is a state of positive protein balance. They want more protein
coming into the body than is leaving. Protein is on average about 16 percent nitrogen by weight. Since nitrogen is easy
to measure in the lab, nitrogen balance is used as a way to measure protein balance. Nitrogen is also a good way to keep
track of the protein economy in the body because carbohydrate and fat do not contain nitrogen. When we eat excess protein,
it can he stored as muscle, but it could also be converted to fat. If it is converted to fat, the nitrogen is removed as
ammonia and is excreted .. read more on BCAA MUSCLE GROWTH »»

Side Lateral Raises - Performing the Exercise
Proper performance of lateral raises is to lean forward only far enough for the dumbbells to clear the tops of the thighs.
Notice that the faces of the dumbbells are forward. Throughout the movement, maintain them in that position; make sure they
remain in a plane about 10 degrees in front of the body. Keeping your arms nearly straight, use muscular contraction in your deltoids to raise the dumbbells out to your sides. At
the top of the movement, your little finger must be higher than your thumb; you may have heard this position compared with
pouring .. read more on LATERAL RAISES »»

Bodybuilding History - Shredded & Ripped
Believe it or not, the requirement that bodybuilding competitors be ripped to shreds, cut to the bone, and displaying striations
and vascularity over their entire body while maintaining huge size and muscle mass is a relatively new phenomenon. Being "ripped"
(the saran-wrap-over-raw-muscle look, as if all fat is removed from the body and the skin is so thin that the striated muscle
appears to be bursting through it) has become a prerequisite for the winning of modern bodybuilding contests, but this wasn't
always the case. Ripped is a relatively new .. read more on RIPPED & SHREDDED »»

DHEA & Bodybuilding: DHEA Effects on Fat Loss
There is one substance that shows real promise as being a safe and effective fat buster. Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)
is a natural metabolite produced by the body. When it was initially given to mice as an experimental treatment for cancer,
it was found to not only result in the mice developing fewer tumors, but the mice taking DHEA lost bodyfat. Since these
early experiments it has been found that people with higher levels of bodyfat have less DHEA than thinner people.
Furthermore, DHEA has been found to decrease as we age, and, as you well know, we gain bodyfat as we age. Much of our
current knowledge of DHEA .. read more on DHEA BODYBUILDING »»

The Importance of Sleep for Bodybuilders
We often think of sleep as a simple state of quiet and inactivity into which the brain passively sinks. But many complex activities occur
in the brain and body during sleep. Sleep doesn't turn off the body's systems. In fact, some systems are more turned on during sleep than
during wakefulness. Of major importance to bodybuilders is the fact that the body is in an anabolic state when asleep. During this phase of metabolism, growth
occurs, tissues rebuild, protein is assimilated and many important energy stores are replaced. This counteracts catabolism, the opposite
phase of metabolism, in which the daily tearing-down .. read more on SLEEP & BODYBUILDING »»
