I'm looking for some advice on what has worked for the last week leading up to a contest. My fiance is 6 weeks out right now from her first competition and we've come across some conflicting info regarding what to do. We went to a contest prep seminar here, but it was rather general in the info...

Has anyone tried IsoPure zero carb by Nature's Best? What do you think of it? I've read the thread on Synthepure and I'm hoping that the Isopure is of better quality than that.

Ok, here's what I've been doing. I started with T prop 100mg ed & 75mg tren eod. This worked great for the first three weeks. I gained about 12 pounds, some of that was water retention, but that has since gone away. Since then 3 more weeks have passed and according to the scale I've gained 2-4...

300th post! and look it only took me 7 years to get there! My join date is September 2001.

Ok, here's the deal, I've been at this a long time. I'm 36 years old and started lifting when I was about 16. Lately though I keep getting plagued by recurring injuries. And not even the same injury that keeps coming back. I'll be making good progress for 3, 6 or 9 months and then BAM...

Has anyone used the OTC anti-estrogens instead of stuff like Arimidex and Nolvadex? I'm ready to go on cycle for the first time in a few years. I'll be using 100ml test prop and 75 ml fina eod. I'm just thinking that it would be great if I could buy something legally online instead of having...

The first and most important thing to find out when you're dieting is how many calories you need to eat per day to maintain your current body weight. From there you can then calculate what you need to take in to meet your weight loss goals. Here's a great link that will help you figure you BMR...

I'm getting a nice sweep to my vastus lateralis (outer thigh) and the vastus medialis (tear drop) is nicely developed but I'm lacking in upper inner thigh development. The wider the outer thighs get and the more pronounced the tear drop becomes the more obvious this deficiency is becoming. Any...

A question for those who compete. Why do you compete?

I'm sure some of you must read MD, but for those that don't they had an interview with Kai Greene on his leg training. He talked about doing "Jefferson Lifts" for hams. It's something I've never seen before. Has anyone ever tried this? What do you think of it? It looks awkward as hell, but...

As I've said I've been away for awhile and I was wondering if any of the old bros like dpsquat, WeirdAl or bstrongbwell are still around?

A recent thread about the economy got me thinking. How much do you spend per month on bodybuilding? This is not an inexpensive hobby especially if you take it seriously. Even someone casual about it probably spends $100 month just in gym fees and protein. But we all know that those of us at...

What feedback does anyone have on their stuff? They seem like a reputable company, certainly better than MuscleTech, who I've always thought spend too much on their "Special 8 page ad reports". Currently I'm using NO-Explode daily before training and Nitrix 3 tabs 3x per day. I'm also using...

Well, I'm back after a quite awhile of being away from MC. Due to my absence from the boards I'm without reliable sources (please don't send me offers unless I know you), but I have easy access to veterinary supplies (my fiance has a degree in veterinary medicine). I've previously done...

My show was last Saturday. I ended up missing the lightweights by 1.5 pounds, that was kind of a bummer. I still ended up taking 5th as a middle, but could've been first or second in the light weight class. Middle weight was the toughest class at the show and the winner of our class ended up...

Two days, huh? Good luck I hope you kick ass!

After the contest is over I'm sure most people's main interest is eating. After feasting on all the things you couldn't have for the last 12 weeks how long before going back to a normal bodybuilding diet? I'm sure it's best to gradually increase calories back to normal over a period of weeks...

I'm two weeks out as of yesterday. I'd like to know what you think about still eating egg whites at this point due to their high sodium content. Is it ok to keep them for awhile longer or do they need to go now. Also I'm going to start Taraxatone on Wednesday for 5 days, then on the Monday...

I'm aout 9 pounds away from dropping to a lower weight class than what I expected. How much weight can I expect to lose in the last two and a half weeks, specifically when I start to cut out water? I'm 5'9", 165# and planned to compete as a middleweight, would I be better off to try to be at...
