well, the second page mentions how some people where dancing against their will so it's definitely not the power of suggestion that was at work here; not to mention don't you think they'd stop dancing before they died if it was as simple as that? there are ghettos in every us city but hundreds of it's resident don't get uncontrollably boogie for days.

a few people on dragon door and on the book's website have followed the diet for years and have had success with the diet and all say the same thing "i feel great!" or "i love this lifestyle!" if you think this is a lie for any reason check out the success stories on the forum http://www.defensenutrition.com/forum/inde...c=5;sa=expand#5 this doesn't mean that the traditional chinese or indian diet is bad or ineffective, i just choose not to follow it. this diet really isn't hard to follow either, the only thing you're really asked to limit is your processed sugars, simple carbohydrates, and to limit your eating during the day to fruits and vegetables. the reason there are so many diets is because people have different goals and you can seriously reshape yourself with diet alone. this diet is extremely convenient to follow since i don't have to worry about "missing a meal" or cooking and preparing anything while running late. if i where to have a breakfast on the go i'd just take a few strawberries and blueberries with me and be gone.

Traditional diet, not from speculating pre-historic man's habits, but simply from the most recent few thousand years reads like this: the diet isn't based on pre-historic man, it's based on the roman, greek (modern science/medicine/philosophy), and spartan cultures. i don't find it surprising that chinese medicine is going to back up the traditional chinese diet but nonetheless check out the statistics for americans currently (all of whom advocate breakfast eating) the basic warrior diet principle is that in these cultures you would often do your hunting and gathering throughout the day and then at night is when you'd feast. the undereating phase does not mean do not eat, you are actually supposed to eat something but it has to be light, like fruits and vegetables (to keep your body out of a catabolic state). then in the overeating phase you have a ~4 hour time period where you consume your main meals (starting with vegetables, then proteins, then fats, carbohydrates aren't recommended).

there hasn't been anything confimed, until the website posts the price it's just speculating

haha what luck! your blog has been discussed here http://www.thetaobums.com/Small-Heavenly-Orbit-t5889.html if you wish to comment on it, the small heavenly orbit was of great interest

wow 160kg!? that's 352 lbs lol ! the anabolic diet says 18 calories x lbs for the maintenance phase (3 to 4 weeks) then you can either bulk from there (add) or go on a cut (decrease) for your goal.

wow that bear form is hardcore hahaha

i was going to do essentially the same thing, water fasting throughout the day but the community on the board said that's not a generally good idea and eating something, although light, prevents your body from entering a catabolic state. maybe some protein powder with some water and fruits spread out throughout the day.
-
lol no offense but your little brother doesn't sound like me at all, i know what i have to do i just hated eating so much meat and fat on the anabolic diet that i decided to switch it.
-
for my bodyweight (160) i'd have to consume 2,880 calories to maintain my weight, i was never able to eat that much eating 3 meals a day with bacon, eggs, cheeses, meats, you name it. my goal is to get lean and this is what this diet is supposed to do, i'm already down to about 158 though from doing the anabolic diet but this diet seems to suit my needs more (i really hated eating so often).
-
yeah the anabolic diet has too much, i've lost weight since on it but you have to eat so much; my heart feels all strange now. how exactly did you do the warrior diet? from what i understand you can't eat your "meal" until at least 16-18 hours after your last meal (sleep included). in this fasting period you can have vegetable/fruit juices or simply water. i'm reading the book but there seems to be some inconsistencies, he'll say you can have whatever you want here and then in the next chapter say you should only eat a certain amount of something. still, i like the idea of having a daily small fast and then have a large meal at night.

i also agree with darinhamel & styrofoamdog, however, a good portion of this community practices some type of "energy work" and i don't think is willing to stop. -
i see some vibrations here could just be the picture though

i have just emailed him, have you spoken to him? interesting you have to take time off after emissions

i have asked him questions but he hasn't logged on this website for a month (last login june 28th)

because if you incorrectly practice the mo pai method you can seriously injure yourself, i'm not willing to take that chance without a guru edit: not to mention he isn't allowed to teach and if he did would be doing so against the mo pai's wishes

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...2501729_pf.html The largest study of its kind has unexpectedly concluded that smoking marijuana, even regularly and heavily, does not lead to lung cancer. The new findings "were against our expectations," said Donald Tashkin of the University of California at Los Angeles, a pulmonologist who has studied marijuana for 30 years. "We hypothesized that there would be a positive association between marijuana use and lung cancer, and that the association would be more positive with heavier use," he said. "What we found instead was no association at all, and even a suggestion of some protective effect." Federal health and drug enforcement officials have widely used Tashkin's previous work on marijuana to make the case that the drug is dangerous. Tashkin said that while he still believes marijuana is potentially harmful, its cancer-causing effects appear to be of less concern than previously thought. Earlier work established that marijuana does contain cancer-causing chemicals as potentially harmful as those in tobacco, he said. However, marijuana also contains the chemical THC, which he said may kill aging cells and keep them from becoming cancerous. Tashkin's study, funded by the National Institutes of Health's National Institute on Drug Abuse, involved 1,200 people in Los Angeles who had lung, neck or head cancer and an additional 1,040 people without cancer matched by age, sex and neighborhood. They were all asked about their lifetime use of marijuana, tobacco and alcohol. The heaviest marijuana smokers had lighted up more than 22,000 times, while moderately heavy usage was defined as smoking 11,000 to 22,000 marijuana cigarettes. Tashkin found that even the very heavy marijuana smokers showed no increased incidence of the three cancers studied. "This is the largest case-control study ever done, and everyone had to fill out a very extensive questionnaire about marijuana use," he said. "Bias can creep into any research, but we controlled for as many confounding factors as we could, and so I believe these results have real meaning." Tashkin's group at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA had hypothesized that marijuana would raise the risk of cancer on the basis of earlier small human studies, lab studies of animals, and the fact that marijuana users inhale more deeply and generally hold smoke in their lungs longer than tobacco smokers -- exposing them to the dangerous chemicals for a longer time. In addition, Tashkin said, previous studies found that marijuana tar has 50 percent higher concentrations of chemicals linked to cancer than tobacco cigarette tar. While no association between marijuana smoking and cancer was found, the study findings, presented to the American Thoracic Society International Conference this week, did find a 20-fold increase in lung cancer among people who smoked two or more packs of cigarettes a day. The study was limited to people younger than 60 because those older than that were generally not exposed to marijuana in their youth, when it is most often tried.

my personal opinion is that it's just better to stay celibate when single and then practice retention with your partner if you feel inclined to the path of semen reservation; the willpower you'll develop to not masturbate will transfer to giving you the power to not ejaculate.
