It's terrifying how quickly a dream vacation or a remote island life can turn into a complete nightmare. You always think you're safe in these isolated spots until something senseless happens. Does anyone else feel like certain beautiful destinations are just a facade for something much more dangerous?

If that's the case, just keep doing what you're doing. Once things stall out, then you can start making changes.

Aaron Cruz3 said:And someone replied that if you mix it with oats or something similar, it works too.

From what I gather,
when you mix whey with slow-digesting proteins, fats, or complex carbs, it loses that "fast-absorbing" edge.

That’s why we usually drink it with water instead of milk after a workout (I think this has been mentioned before).

The bottom line:
You can definitely have whey on rest days if you add an "element" to slow down absorption. But, obviously, your actual diet—chicken, eggs, cottage cheese—has to be the main priority.
Whey is "just" a supplement.

What if I'm hungry late at night, say around 10:30 PM, and I'm heading to bed in half an hour?

Before bed, your best bet would be some cottage cheese. It has enough slow-digesting protein to feed your muscles all through the night.

I hope I'm not off base here; if I am, feel free to correct me.😬

PS.

One more thing.
Don't eat oats right before sleep. Your body won't be able to burn them off while you're out, and we all know where those extra calories end up.🙂

thanks Chrissy and the crew, it works👍

Oh, right, hatching😬
I’ve got this one section I don't want to hatch, but I'm stuck on how to bypass it while keeping everything else looking right
Is there a way to just select a single line?
I know it's doable because I've managed it before, I just can't seem to figure out the steps this time around🙂

I was thinking about just selecting specific lines and applying a break, since there are certain parts I definitely don't want drawn out.
Also, does anyone know how to hatch only the specific areas I actually need?

I'm stuck again

In AutoCAD 2005, when I create a hatch (you know, those diagonal lines for cross-sections), how can I select just one specific line within the pattern instead of the entire hatch object being selected at once?

What’s the best way to draw a line at a specific angle?🙂

Is there any way to pick up some whey protein in San Francisco, or am I stuck looking in Chicago?

Does Mavrović's bread count as whole grain?

I picked up a screwdriver today and started using it for some unconventional reps, and honestly? It’s actually not bad at all.

What do you guys think about using it as a makeshift "tool" for a workout?

I definitely broke a sweat, and it was pretty fun too.
I'm also curious—which muscles am I hitting hardest here, and which joints should I be mindful of?

How much are you guys spending on protein powder, how long does a tub typically last you, and how often are you scooping it?

2. Whey proteins don't have, and can't have, any fat. Since whey isolates are processed to strip away everything else, the fats are gone. [/QUOTE

I’ve never actually used protein supplements myself, but I’ve been looking into it and read somewhere that there's no such thing as a fat-free protein.[/QUOTE]

Just for the home crowd.

Tinchi said:So, were you eating homemade soups or just the canned stuff?

I’m a fan too. 🙂

Red ones are amazing!👍

Personally, I think the flavor is just okay—the white ones actually taste better—but I prefer this one because it keeps me full much faster, which is 👍.
Plus, it lasts longer.
How does it stack up calorie-wise? Like, 1 oz of feta from this vs. 1 oz of feta from a semi-white variety?

What makes that bread actually healthier than just grabbing some standard white Wonder Bread?
How does its calorie count stack up against the usual stuff?... 🙂

What’s the actual difference here?

1. Is it actually worth grinding out slow-motion pushups if I can only squeeze out 13 reps before hitting failure?
2. How much more focus goes into the chest when you elevate your feet on something like a bench or a chair, and what does that do to the rest of the muscles?

Do pushups actually help strengthen my back?
