Articles everywhere. Confused.

[Seifer]

Sometimes I read stuff that doesnt make any sense at all, and totally goes against the norm. I ignore it and move along. Like 'Are UFOs real' or 'Do cellular phones cause brain cancer'.


Then I read stuff that matters to ME, and it contradicts what I've prescribed to in my life.

One of the MAJOR things that I read totally opposing information on is OVERTRAINING (but that isnt what this thread is about). Some say nearly everyone in the gym overtrains 95% of the time, and some say overtraining doesnt even exist. To this day I'm still confused on the subject.


But I found this one recently:

MD is a great source. Some of their stuff they MEAN for us to take with a grain of salt, even in their paper print. But this isnt the first time I've read similar stuff about PWO C's.

Thus, the authors concluded that "co-ingestion of carbohydrate does not further augment muscle protein synthesis rates during recovery from resistance-type exercise under conditions where ample protein is ingested."

I hate being confused.

95% of the people in the gym overtrain? sorry but bullshit. i think overtraining exists but very few people push themselves hard enough to reach this point. i think when someone does reach this point it usually results in injury. if you dont injure yourself i wouldnt say your overtraining. shut up and train is my religion, maybe you should try it

Naw I didnt say that, I said I've read it time and time again.


And I've read stuff like what you said - it doesnt exist.


But this article still confuses me.

dude he's sharing an article for everyone to benefit from, let's stay with the brotherhood here and try to tear anybody down. if u don't believe in overtraining that's great, but let's not lay into someone else for believing something different than we do. That's called respect.

A lot of stuff on the internet can be confusing. Sometimes there is too much info out there.

There is a ton of good info right here on animalpak.com and you can ask questions from the pros right here:
