    The RDA is 56 g per day for grown men, which is the minimum recommendations of the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range. Also the old 0.8g per kilo of body weight is based on nitrogen balance studies in sedentary people. Many newer studies suggest 1-1.4 g per kg for endurance athletes and upwards of 1.7g per kg for body builders. Keep in mind, that is total protein, not just supplements. I mentioned I started lifting during lunch. That was so I could do more cardio activities in evenings and nights. Considering how often I end up skipping the cardio, I'm still trying to find that balance with cardio.

    most people will tell you to have some carbs and protein both before and after workouts. but usually i'll eat bread or something with carbs about half an hour before working out, then go heavy on protein immediately after working out. a 1:2 ratio of carbs to protein is usually considered ideal (depending on your own goals, of course). after a good workout, your muscles have about a 30 minute window where they are primed to make the best use of protein. that's why I immediately drink it. (I make it the night before, refrigerate, and shake the hell out of it between sets towards the end of my workout) I don't necessarily follow that advice to a T. Since I've started lifting during lunch breaks at work, I very often do not eat anything before working out. My protein shake is similar to davos... I use blueberries, strawberrys, kale, almond milk, and protein powder. Usually I do between 20-45 g of protein depending on the workout.

    Normally I superset Squats with something like triceps extensions where I only do one arm at a time in order to get longer rest period between sets. At the same time, I hate idle time at the gym. By the time I had gotten to the end of my workout, squats were all I had left, and I figured an alternate wouldn't hurt too much. eta: my gym has 2 smith machines, but I refuse to use that contraption. there used to be room where I could just do it in open space, but that space now taken by an assortment of incline and decline benches for whatever reason. besides, i can't power clean and jerk 225 (my usual starting weight) then lower it to do back squats. well, i might, but i'll never know because i'm not going to try it. eta again: overhead squats may be a nice change of pace. hmmmm....

    I missed Tuesday and Wednesday at the gym. Just that two day break seems to have put me like 3 weeks behind. Today was squat day, but "that guy" was at the gym. You know who I'm talking about... he does a set, then has like a 40 minute rest before his next set. Then hovers over the rack and doesn't let anyone else use it. I got tired of waiting and just skipped rope and rode a bike.

    I haven't seen a PF with free weights. The best I've seen is 40 lb. yoga bars. I don't remember if I've seen dumb bells or not.

    Doctors only keep a pregnant mother to-be grounded if she is a high-risk pregnancy (twins, hypertension, diabetic, etc)

    Remember Joe Jurevicious, the WR for the Bucs who had a career day in the NFCCG against the Eagles? Google why he doesn't wear his Superb Owl ring.

    Well it's about time. Doesn't every other cable company offer a minimum of 50 Mbps for the lowest tier?
