I recently learned from a bodybuilder that this bodybuilder would take a 2 to 1 ratio of carbs and protein within 1 hour after a workout. The bodybuilder...
How long should I do the HIE intermediate program? I'm on my second 4 week iteration and wasn't sure at what point I should go to the advance, or do I have to...
Thank you for your response Joel. Yes, he is taking thyroid hormone replacement, I think via pills. I believe the rest of your response covers answering my...
Mark, I am pretty sure from memory you should stay on intermediate for up to 6 months before doing advanced. As for carbs after a workout apparently this stops...
Mark, Have a read of this discussion on the Dave Draper website: http://davedraper.com/forum/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/35608/an/0/page/0 I think it should...
Thank you Joel. Now that you guys have said that I do remember it being 6 months. Like I had responded earlier I need to get back to the HIE and refresh my...
I've got a questions about soy milk. I know I've read somewhere that too much soy milk can increase estrogen levels in men, however, I'd assume that there is...

Hi, I am wondering if Joel has ever addressed the Warrior Diet? It advocates eating a big meal at night and not eating during the day. The author claims this...
Hi Rosheen, I've never read the Warrior Diet; unfortunately after reading NHE I find other diet books difficult to read! Too easy to pick apart usually...... ...
Joel, Thanks for getting back to me... You make a lot of sense! I was reading an interview about the Warrior Diet and just the basics were captured in the...
Joel, it has come to my attention that protein absorption may be much more efficient than what Rob argues. Apparently, up to 98% of protein is absorbed and...
Simon, I'd love to see the research you're talking about. But even if protein absorption is much higher than previously suspected, it doesn't necessarily mean...
Hi Joel, I'm going on vacation for a week but will put together a post when I get back. I wish you all a good Easter! Simon ... necessarily ... an ... or ... ...
Ive switched from BB eating to normal NHE eating months ago, i dont recommend it to anyone who doesnt want to lose lean mass and strength with the fat that...
Luke, I'm sorry to hear you're having so much trouble with the NHE plan. Assuming you're doing everything correctly, no one can give you a 100% guarantee that ...
Joel, i used to eat high carb/low fat but due to the massive energy swings went to atkins then NHE. Always wanted to sleep on high carb. Have you tried...
Luke, The current research on post workout nutrition is still quite contradictory. Here's an interesting article written on Testosterone Nation last year ...
Joel, thanks for the link i will check it out. Am i going to try 30-50g carbs post workout? I probably will and possibly even pre workout aswell, but want more...
Luke, Body fat estimation is rather difficult. I know you've heard it countless times before but sometimes the mirror is the easiest method. I would consider...
I'm so clueless on my Bodfat - I'm 32 5-10 175 with a pretty defined six pack and my bioelectric scale says im 19%. It's going to give me body dsymorphic...
J, 19% does sound high for you. I'm assuming your arms would be pretty defined as well? A few veins? Deltoid definition? If this is the case then you'd ...
Yeah, have veins showing at the biceps, at the shoulders,etc. Even have one poking out of my lower abs a bit. then on my calves and this goofy vein on my...

Hi Jason, Have you read HIE or just the section in NHE on exercise? In HIE there is a clearly defined routine for beginner, intermediate and advanced. Maybe...
Im currently prety far into the HIE and thed the NHE book. Maybe im missing it. Im on the part about jumping and cardio stuff. Wrist seemed to hurt with both...
Jason, The workout plans start on page 183. Are you relatively new to lifting weights? The wrist pain may just be temporary as your body adjusts to this new...
