And easy skippy, I missed your original post. It wasn't a matter of me NOT wanting to answer you. | Ah alright thats cool steve.
I'm a tad short on time right now but off the top of my head. The use of creatine for long distance runners. I am finding more and more long distance runners loading up on creatine in hopes it will help their performance.
I wish more people understood energy pathways in general. The PCr Ep has little to do with anything beyond anaerobic situations. As we both know that means ATP replenishment through PRc and AnGly(for the sake of argument) has little to do with marathons. |

I look at all these posts and think, THANK GOD I JUST WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT! Its terribly confusing stuff to build muscle apparently!
BTW - is doing all walking on treadmills and swimming good enough? Do we all need to weight train? My legs get very muscular with walking and swimming alone. Am I missing out on some benefit that weight training offers?

That's about it.
Most overcomplicate things quite a bit. However, you should make things complicated until it's required to sustain progress. Quote: |

| It really depends on what you'd consider "good enough."
Ideally though, you'd weight train as well as the other various modes of exercise. Weight training does not always = muscle building. There are a lot more health benefits that are associated with weight training.
Add to this that most people will never get to where they think they want to be in terms of physique without adding resistance training into the mix. |

As far as where you gathered your information, a RD don't mean much to me,neither does any cert or formal education for that matter. I have seen a 17 year old high school kid wipe the floor with a PH.D, paper is paper.
