Olympus Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 actually mens health mags are never full of BS, some you may wanna question, but most of the contents in them are written and prescribed by certified people in their fields..personally, id rather read/buy MH than MF, Ironman, etc etc (although at times i would buy them on sale just to check out their bikini/lingerie issues biggrin.gif or scanning for stuff) just my two cents biggrin.gif The problem is you have to skim through all the ads and BS to find the genuine useful stuff Quote Link to comment

Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 i like this article..thanks enka actually mens health mags are never full of BS, some you may wanna question, but most of the contents in them are written and prescribed by certified people in their fields..personally, id rather read/buy MH than MF, Ironman, etc etc (although at times i would buy them on sale just to check out their bikini/lingerie issues or scanning for stuff) just my two cents I agree bro, my personal favorites are Men's Health and Men's Fitness. I look for the articles on nutrition, exercises. I admit there is a lot of advertisements but of course we just have to ignore those.Anyways, most of the articles are written by doctors and certified experts. Happy easter!! Quote Link to comment

carlos_palanca Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Guys, Any known side effects of taking HYDROXYCUT ? Quote Link to comment
rockybrawler Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 (edited) Guys, Any known side effects of taking HYDROXYCUT ? heart palitation, increased heart beat, nervousness, jittery just like having taken too much coffee. Hydroxycut is basically just caffeine so it makes you so alert. I felt very strong and hyped up when I took hydroxycut hardcore. Edited April 10, 2007 by rockybrawler Quote Link to comment
Olympus Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 IN short, if you have heart problems, stay away from fat burners Quote Link to comment
boy_tusok Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 guys just a little info I've read, I find this too important not to share. DO NOT DO STRETCHING BEFORE ANY ACTIVITY.Yep u read right, explanation? The muscle part that is being stretched becomes relaxed, so in a certain exercise involving a combination of muscle parts, it will not be a concerted effort of all the muscles concern and may lead to injuries.Instead do warmup exercises, those that we do in elementary schools like jumping jacks and rotating our hands arms hips knees ankles.. Correct me if I'm wrong on this but this is what I read in Men's Health. the first thing i do when i enter the gym is 5 min. cardio and then stretching (10 sec. per muscle group) then i warm up by lifting half the weight that i would normally lift then on to my exercises. am i doing something wrong?

You don't need to stretch anymore since you are already warmed up Quote Link to comment

koolkalangxyz Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I have a problem doing squats. I'm not sure whether its because of poor execution or i have a back problem. Each time i've tried doing squat i feel pressure on my lower back. Its not painful but just sore/stings. And I'm doing this with only 70lbs. Can somebody advise me on what to do?
