Thats what I figured. Between you and Army of One copying posts from other sites and pasting it here as your own, I can never tell when youre serious or not.

2 years ago, (I was 21 in FSU) my lifting partener and I did a squat a thon contest of who could do 315 for the most reps. He went first and did 30 full reps, I went after him and did 50 full reps. It was awesome and the entire gym loved to see two friends challenge each other like that. Now at 23 I don't go over 225 for 10-12 reps. If you have a regular lifting partener, try to challenge each other like that.

Shit son. Class of '07 right here. You train at the Leach?

Very high protein diets is pushed my the magazines to sell more protein supplements many gym rats are brainwashed by this, clean carbs are important like brown rice, oats, quinola etc.

Bodybuilding workouts, 30-45 second sets followed by 1-2 min rest,
are primarily glycolytic.

So, if you're training in a carb depleted state, your workouts would figure to be sluggish, as you're relying on a slower burning fuel, fat, which is more appropriate for less intense training like jogging at 9-10 minute mile pace.

Of course, if you're dieting for a show, you might be willing to sacrifice the intensity for the increase in fat burning.
