Endocrinology 2000 Mar;141(3...Regarding green tea:<br /><br />Endocrinology 2000 Mar;141(3):980-7<br />Modulation of endocrine systems and food intake by green tea epigallocatechin gallate.<br /><br />Kao YH, Hiipakka RA, Liao S.<br /><br />Ben May Institute for Cancer Research, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and Tang Center for Herbal Medicine Research, University of Chicago, Illinois 60637, USA.<br /><br />Green tea polyphenols, especially the catechin, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), have been proposed as a cancer chemopreventative based on a variety of laboratory studies. For clear assessment of the possible physiological effects of green tea consumption, we injected pure green tea catechins ip into rats and studied their acute effects on endocrine systems. We found that EGCG, but not related catechins, significantly reduced food intake; body weight; blood levels of testosterone, estradiol, leptin, insulin, insulin-like growth factor I, LH, glucose, cholesterol, and triglyceride; as well as growth of the prostate, uterus, and ovary. Similar effects were observed in lean and obese male Zucker rats, suggesting that the effect of EGCG was independent of an intact leptin receptor. EGCG may interact specifically with a component of a leptin-independent appetite control pathway. Endocrine changes induced by parenteral administration of EGCG may relate to the observed growth inhibition and regression of human prostate and breast tumors in athymic mice treated with EGCG as well as play a role in the mechanism by which EGCG inhibits cancer initiation and promotion in various animal models of cancer.<br /><br />But then Charles Poliquin put this in an article:<br /><br />"CP (Charles Poliquin): Green tea has been shown clinically to increase testosterone, decrease estrogens, and increase detoxification rates in the body. It also serves at increasing metabolism.

I go to failure in that last set and hobble my ass out of the power rack and into a nice hot shower (and it feels like that Irish Spring commercial where all the naked bitches pop out and giggle). If your shower following a workout doesn't feel like that, you're obviously some sort of city-slicker pussy.<br /><br />And of course, if you've no need for a shower after your workout, and instead head to starbucks for a cafe latte and biscotta, then perhaps settling down in a nice gay marriage with three adopted Asian children is right up your alley.RainingPiPshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02808266508794004505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835524249360195666.post-52148914932978908682010-10-13T00:30:51.769-04:002010-10-13T00:30:51.769-04:00Another little gem:

A Bulgarian session is basically Snatch, C&J, Squat, all up to daily one rep max then drop down for volume work (doubles and triples) to get a total of 30 to 50 reps for the exercise. They have two to three sessions per day.<br /><br />I also know this because I've been squatting in this manner every day for 4 months now. I've only missed three days so far, and I've increased my squat by a steady 10 kg per month over this period. <br />It's pretty damn uncomfortable and tiring at first, but once you adapt, it becomes like breathing.Lucnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835524249360195666.post-39921753060937916222010-10-12T19:30:02.567-04:002010-10-12T19:30:02.567-04:00I think the jury's still out on that, but the ...I think the jury's still out on that, but the bulgarians definitely seem to limit their time per session to an hour or so.<br /><br />Green tea's a bunch of antioxidants- I know of no study showing it to affect test one way or the other.Jamie Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16182869171233847161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835524249360195666.post-63877221503780640842010-10-12T19:01:31.221-04:002010-10-12T19:01:31.221-04:00Jamie, I'm surprised you bought up the decreas...Jamie, I'm surprised you bought up the decrease in testosterone after 45 minutes of hard exercise.

I'm mainly interested in it giving me a better boner, and when i take it i think it does (i'm nearly 40, but still wank twice a day - mainly because i'm married). But i'm always put off by that famous article saying green tea lowers your testosterone. When you google it though, some sites say it raises it, and tonight i read some Poliquin article about middle age "andropause" and he's saying it raises test. Any opinions?

But i do think that SOME exercises need to be done less frequently, ie squats, deadlifts etc. And also bench presses, dips, overhead presses etc. Squating once a week is fine IF you've fully recovered from any previous leg work.

He set<br />multiple World records – and is the only man to<br /> set World records in FOUR different weight classes.<br /><br />In addition to his weightlifting success, Tommy Kono<br />was a four-time winner of the Mr. Universe contest<br />(held in conjunction with the World weightlifting<br />championships), and served a coach in three Olympics.<br /><br />He is the author of Weightlifting, Olympic Style and<br />Championship Weightlifting.<br /><br />So when it comes to lifting, Tommy Kono knows what<br />he’s talking about!<br /><br />Here’s what Tommy Kono shared with me about workout<br />frequency.<br /><br />“Brooks,<br /><br />My thoughts on this. Once a week is better than no<br />workout or too many workouts a week. Sometimes those<br />who train forget that they need to tax the muscles,<br />but the muscles need time to recover. You tax them<br />too often, and it becomes routine, so it is like work.<br />The muscles won't respond to routine.<br /><br />I believe that is the reason having 3 workouts a week<br />was good with the light, medium and heavy system. You<br />are really taxing the muscles once a week although you<br />are training 3 times a week.<br /><br />I've always believed in the idea of getting the most out<br />of an exercise using the least amount of time so Quality<br />is insured and you retain enthusiasm for the exercise<br />program. Some thrive on working hard all the time but<br />what happens is that the trainee develops the capacity<br />to train long and hard but the results don’t compensate<br />for all the time and effort put into the training plan.<br /><br />I've always stated that it is better to be under trained<br />than over trained. A little bit of weight training goes<br />a long way. It pays bigger dividends than long, drawn-out<br />sessions.<br /><br />In my first book, I mentioned about going through Army boot<br />camp. I had no time to train for over 2 months but I competed<br />in my 2nd Nationals. With just 3 technique workouts in 2 days<br />and resting one day, I was able to total as much as I did in<br />the Nationals the year before.<br /><br />Tommy”<br /><br />So there you have some “radical” ideas from one of the very<br />greatest weightlifters of all time:<br /><br />1. Train 3 times per week.<br /><br />2. Use the light, medium and heavy system.<br /><br />3. Train heavy ONE day per week.<br /><br />4. Less is more.<br /><br />5. A little bit of the right kind of training goes a long way.<br /><br />6. Emphasize QUALITY, not quantity, in your workouts.<br /><br />7. It’s better to undertrain than to overtrain.<br /><br />You might want to print this email out and save it – because<br />Tommy Kono just gave you some of the very best training advice<br />you’re ever going to see.<br /><br />Thanks to Tommy Kono for sharing his thoughts with us – and<br />thanks to everyone out there who reads this email and who<br />applies its teachings.<br /><br />Have a great day – and if you train today, make it a good<br />one!<br /><br />Yours in strength,<br /><br />Brooks Kubik"drayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01485898408046401676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835524249360195666.post-65942565829690913812010-10-12T12:22:37.984-04:002010-10-12T12:22:37.984-04:00I'll be sure to reassert the idea that we'...I'll be sure to reassert the idea that we're training right up to the point where you shit blood- that was my aim.
