I don't doubt it COULD. But i'm thinking it's the people who are already on their way there..or really arn't getting proper nutrition.Originally Posted by BigPapi328

i believe it. I did my own personal experiments and whey definitely causes hair thinning or at least causes it to happen quicker if thats your destiny. Especially ones with BCAA in them.
i've been on a protein shake for breakfast and after workout regimen for the past 2 years and my hairline was running away from my forehead now i stopped the shakes as an experiment for so far 3 weeks and I've noticed slight results. Strength wise I've been suffering a little bit but I look about the same maybe even a little leaner.
just google bcaa or too much vitamin A or creatine and hairloss and you'll see theres plenty of cases

I think I posted one of his older videos, but I've been following this guy called ice1cube on youtube. His workouts are pretty legit I must say...he went the all natural route and said it took him about 6 years to pack on 20 lbs of solid muscle.
I think I might just give this a try for my next leg day:

I like the idea behind it, but I just don't enjoy those types of workouts. Also, I enjoy working out with minimal equipment and based on my own feelings. It's a great way to build overall performance, but you'll never excel at any one thing(olympic lifting, gymnastics, sprinting, etc.) because it's a mix of everything.
There's nothing enjoyable about Crossfit workouts. They are grueling and 90% of the time, I ask myself why I even bother. And you're on the money when you say that you'll never excel at one thing when doing Crossfit, but for someone like myself who is just trying to achieve a higher level of athleticism, it matches perfectly with my goals.
ChewToy: Very good point about trying to finish as quick as possible, and I can't really refute this - I can say, however, that it's entirely up to the person doing the WOD to make sure their form is good and that they're not cheating themselves.
That workout isnt even that hard. 100 reps of squats at a medium weight in 30 minutes? Not too difficult at all. I'm surprised he had such a hard time doing it.Originally Posted by mcnoodlez

So should I just say eff HIIT, and do my eliptical workout?
It's a interval thing going from 34 to 36 every 5 minutes.....
I believe it's that hard. You see how low he is going on those squats.Originally Posted by Carlos Tevez

That is the same reason why I stopped HIIT.. I burn a way lot more on the Elliptical.
Are you sure that you aren't just a bit lactose intolerant? I drink A LOT of milk espc chocolate every day for the carbs and protein. I have a few scoops of ON whey as well... I want to educate myself on whether its actually harmful for me or simply people who dont deal well with milk prod.Originally Posted by Refuse2Lose24
Whey protein is not good for you in any way. I wish I knew this a long time ago. Dumping 2 protein shakes down my throat was the wrong idea. Besides the fact that milk inside the protein and that its really hard for the body to digest.
Its been a while since Ive consumed whey protein and I can feel a big difference in my body and digestive system functioning the way it should. It was making me bloated, constipated, tired, and making my allergies worse. Although Ive also cut out all dairy and drink almond milk only.
I have just decided to eat more whole natural foods and am seeing great results along with taking an occasional hemp protein shake instead.
The supplements (whey protein, no explode, etc) are garbage IMO. Just gaining more knowledge that if you have the proper nutrition and diet you will achieve the desired results you want.
Being a personal trainer for the last 2 years and just constantly gaining and learning new information helped me make the decision to cut out all supplements and just work out hard and eat healthy.
some people (i.e. me) are going to say both.Originally Posted by MOSTHATED770
