Hi Duke, welcome to the forums. You have a great attitude. I think all of us have had those lectures from unhealthy people.

Hi Jason, welcome to the forums.

Hi HCPinGviini, welcome to the forums.

Milk is a source of high protein. Milk is not a source of good protein. I gave up meat and dairy for my health. Now I'm glad that the entire planet benefits from my choice.

Thanks Ryan. Sounds exactly like what Tim was doing in his video that I watched. Thanks for shipping my Vega today I need to look around your store for other things that I need.

I'm trying to self diagnose the pain that I've experienced lately when squatting. I was watching Tim Van Orden's videos on youtube. He has had problems with this band and what he pointed to was exactly where my pain is. http://www.huetheronline.org/vbb/iliotibialband.jpg So my investigating started. From Wikipedia.org Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS or ITBFS, for Iliotibial Band Friction Syndrome) is a common thigh injury generally associated with running. Additionally it can also be caused by biking, hiking or weight-lifting (especially squats). The (especially squats) caught my eye since I've been squatting a lot for a couple months. I've found stretches to try and I'll take it a bit easy on the squats for a while. Anybody else had pain in this area and any suggestions?

I just ordered a big tub from vegan essentials. Guess I should have read this thread.

Breakfast: 2 bananas Morning Inclined Treadmill: 50 minutes, 3 mph, 11 incline Eats: banana, rice and veggies, watermelon Evening Workout:Squat Night didn't go as planned. The second rep at 225 was very hard and a bit painful. So I stopped. I did warmups and acclimation sets working up to 225, so I'm confused. Maybe I need a break from these high rep sets. Evening Inclined Treadmill: 30 minutes, 3.3 mph, 7 incline I could feel the slight pain in the side of my thigh while treadmilling So I lowered the incline and raised the speed. That seemed to help.

Hi Ronin, welcome to the forums

Strawberries

Breakfast: 2 bananas Morning Inclined Treadmill: 40 minutes Eats: 2 oranges, banana, fruit smoothie, peanuts, another banana, watermelon No veggies today, should probably fix that tomorrow Evening Inclined Treadmill: 60 minutes No lifting tonight, just treadmill. My legs are feeling a little better today, the soreness has moved to my pecs. As soon as my legs feel ready, I'll squat 225 again to see how many reps I can get. Hopefully more than 10. 20 would be great, but I'm not expecting that many.

Are you related to Potter? I think he dips his peanuts in peanut butter.

I figured that you knew because of the cool shades.
