I have been wading through magazine, books, journals, dvds and many other publication out there about weightlifting, powerlifting, nutrition, supplements, injury prevention and so on.
What I have found are and will try my best to answer some of these questions:
1) some magazines contradict each other...for example: one magazine will say "Over training is bad!" and the other "Over training is bad but good if you want gain". Who should you believe?
2) Supplement ads, so many and all of them saying the same thing "We are better than the competitors! We will give you 50% more muscle, 350% more strength..." Which supplements should you take?
3) Confuse about nutrition? About diet? More carbs? More protein? More fats? Amino Acids? Vitamins?
4) What about weight training routines/programs? High volume, High intensity? Low Volume, High intensity? To cardio or not? 5x5? Six days a week training vs 3 days a week? Over/under training?
5) Warm up, resting, stretching, sleeping and so on...
I am not an expert in these fields but I have research, tried, failed, succeeded, and most important learned for my experience.
Hopefully, you will take the time to read through it, make CONSTRUCTIVE
criticism, and share your opinion.
Lastly, when in doubt, KEEP IT SIMPLE!
