I:

  • train combat sports (judo, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and occasionally wrestling, muay Thai, MMA and wrestling), though I'm very much still a beginner
  • enjoy punishing forms of short-duration conditioning
  • lift (poundages at roughly 175 pounds bodyweight: squat in the mid-200s, deadlift in the upper 300s, press just over 100, bench about bodyweight, so altogether nothing special)
  • and sometimes have more time for reading than training, unfortunately.

comment Why do distance running training programs tell you to do long runs so slowly?
In the absence of hard scientific evidence, people who get things done rely on A) people who have done the thing before: coaches, athletes, and B) their own reasoning powers. I think an absence of studies is perfectly normal.

comment Is drinking extra milk a viable method for increasing my daily protein intake?
I think we can disagree without calling each other dogmatic. :) Part of my point is that while you're technically correct in that milk isn't proportionally high-protein, this misses the point: milk is easier to add to a full diet than the equivalent weight of bread, or a pound of tuna. (You mentioned this.) Adding the milk to 3 big meals will increase protein (and caloric) intake to a sufficient level for almost anyone. And as you point out in the 2nd-to-last paragraph--that 1400 calories that milk has over tuna is important for gaining weight.

3L of milk = approx 12.6 cups = approx 100g protein. Is that not a significant portion of protein in a day?

comment How to grow muscle while burning fat?
"your problem is 100% diet related" - is this accurate? No exercise plus a caloric deficit equals looking good? You don't recommend any lifting or metcon workouts?

comment How to grow muscle while burning fat?
This may be true for trained individuals, but the person asking the question is an untrained novice. Don't novices build muscle while losing fat on beginner compound weight training programs all the time?
