Hi, I'm a college freshman, and I never go to bed on the weekends before 3am. That being said, would it be better for me to go to bed on weeknights at the...
I would say go to bed as early as you can as many days of the week as possible. Going to bed before midnight 5 out of 7 times a week would probably be better...
Also, make use of naps whenever possible. That was a very important skill I learned in college! It's not as good as night time sleep but it's way better than...
Wow, quiet in here...... Question: Rob endorses a 50 gram per meal protein limit & a minimum time between meals of 2 hours. So, if you have a protein shake...
My protein shakes usually have about 30 grams of protein. Also, I usually have a protein shake no sooner than a half hour before the workout, so that there...
One more thing: Rob recommends a rather large meal (especially for bodybuilders) a couple of hours after the post-workout meal. Say you consume 50 grams of...
Hi everyone. I started the NHE diet plan about 1.5 months ago. I started weighing about 250 LBS. within the first 2 weeks I lost about 10lbs but now im stuck...
Hi guys, Just started working out and wanted see if anyone had a few pointers on reps and weight to lift. I can bench about 180lbs about 2 times starting fresh...
Hi Simon, You've brought up some excellent points. Just for the record I've been using around 25 grams, almost immediately before & after, so no worries! You...
Hi Jason, You're obviously keen to get started lifting weights, but you'll soon find most of your questions answered by Rob's book. As a beginner, the best...
Hi Jason, It's still fairly early to tell if you're doing anything wrong. It looks like you're about to start lifting weights seriously which should certainly ...
Joel, I am little confused about warm-up sets for each exercise. I find the intensity drop considerably if I add warm-up sets. I assume that it's OK to drop...
Jason, the reason you gain weight after carb-loads is probably glycogen water. When your muscle cells are filled with glucose/glycogen, water also comes along,...
Simon, For the most part I do the same as you. After a cardio warm-up and a really intense first couple of sets, I'm as warmed up as I need to be. I find the ...
Hey Joel, thanks for your answers. AS for the shakes, Im putting in Whey powder and Soy Milk (low carb) and sometimes I put some greens in it as well. Whenever...
I have just switched fromm bb eating to regular nhe about 6weeks ago. I was 86kg with about 26% bf...now im 79.5kg and 23.5% bf. I have lost a noticeable...
Jason, Reviewing your diet again, in light of the fact that you only sometimes add lipids to your shakes, it seems like it's fairly low fat. Do you ever have...
Hi Luke, You lost 6.5 kg in 6 weeks. That's 2.4 pounds per week. I'd say that's bordering on too fast, but at least the fat is coming off. I don't remember if...
Joel I am using a set of scales to check bf %. These scales you have to set it with your height and gender..after it checks your weight it gives a reading of...
Luke, Does the scale also ask for your age? I'm highly suspicious of those mainly because if you're older it will tack on extra fat. As far as your dilemma, I...
Hi there! I just finished reading the new group posts. I see that I unsubbed from the other list prematurely. I'll have to go back and read. I may have...

Hi Renae, welcome! First things first: after the initial 7-day induction, have you been feeling good on the diet? Increased energy? Reduction in cravings for...
Thanks for the welcome, Todd and Joel! Yes, I've done really well with it after the induction period. Don't have any cravings to speak of. Energy levels are...
Hi Renae, welcome, I hope we can all be of help! I don't see a reason to try to up your intake of carbs during downcycle, if you find it difficult to do so. I...
Thank you, Simon! I very much enjoy the NHE plan, mainly because there are no forbidden foods. I still want to make the best choices for my health that I can ...
Renae, Do you have a medical condition, or a genetic predisposition that you know of? Have you had a medical recently? You mention that you like cheese and...
