So I tweaked my elbow doing chest last week and reaggravated it last night...not a serious pain, but nagging enough to notice it often. Anyone else get these minor pains/aches/tweaks?

Just gotta rest it a bit, or use lower weights. Happened to me, took a couple weeks ago, and eased back into it. Thats all you an really do, if you keep pushing its just gonna take longer to heal up later.So I tweaked my elbow doing chest last week and reaggravated it last night...not a serious pain, but nagging enough to notice it often.

My shoulder didnt bother me too much today, I could actually bench with the barbell today. Granted I didnt do a lot of weight, but still tons better than using machines for chest.
Protein Cheesecake: 2:1 Ratio P/C
I like things that taste good.
I analyzed cheesecake recipes from America's Test Kitchen, Chantal, Joe Pastry and even Paula Deen to come up with this, and I've eaten one every night for the past 7 nights. My criteria for this recipe was that it must look good, taste good (even to my wife), be macro friendly towards my diet and eaten in one setting. Also, no water baths or leaving the cake in the oven for 5 hours. This recipe is just for a 6" NY-Style Cheesecake.
Macro's: 834 calories; 123g Protein, 63g Carbs, 10g Fat
12oz - Fat Free Philadelphia Cream Cheese
10oz - F age 0% Fat Free Greek Yogurt
2 whole eggs
3/4 Cup - Granulated Splenda
1/4 Cup - 1% Milk
1.25 Scoop - Trutein Vanilla Protein (42.5g)
1 tsp - Vanilla Extract
1/4 tsp - Kosher salt
Directions: All ingredients at room temperature.
1. Preheat Oven to 325 - Prepare 6" cake pan with non-stick spray and parchment paper in the bottom.
2. Cream Cheese in mixer - mix on medium until creamy - scrape sides of bowl down.
3. Add splenda - mix on medium until incorporated - scrape sides of bowl down.
4. Add eggs one at a time while on medium. Again...scrape.
5. Add the rest of the ingredients - mix on medium for 3 minutes.
6. Pour in pan - extra batter in mouth - yum.
7. Bake at 325 for 30 minutes. Turn oven to 200 for 50min - 1 hour. Remove and let cool on the counter. Wrap and refrigerate overnight.
The 6" pan is important, I've had friends try it with a ******ed glass pie plate and it was an epic failure simply because the cooking times need to be adjusted for different pans and cake thicknesses. If you don't have a 6" pan, buy one, or you need to remove the cheesecake when it's 155 degrees in the center. I use this pan, http://www.amazon.com/Parrish-Magic-...pr_product_top
Adding flavors are pretty simple...want chocolate? Add in 3 tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder and replace the milk with 1/4 cup brewed coffee (or milk will still work).
Changing macros is easy by either adding a crust of Graham Crackers, Oreos or animal crackers. If you add a crust, omit the parchment paper. Toppings are as creative as you want to get. Here's a couple of photos..
Straight up with Raspberry sauce
Maple Protein Cheesecake with Candied Bacon Topping
Chocolate Cheesecake with Cool Whip and Blackberry Sauce
And here's what started all of this...this frumpy, sad excuse for a protein cheesecake I found somewhere online. To think that people are eating this and thought it was good enough to share with others. Epic fail.
I just sent that recipe to the broad who made my cheesecake. Repped.
i've used all kinds of intraworkouts and other supps that are supposed to be for recovery but the thing that worked best for me was getting enough rest and upping my protein intake. even if i train fasted now, i don't use anything intra - i couldn't justify that purchase.What supplement provides the fastest recovery?
I think creatine is very beneficial to anyone who lifts, IMO. It doesn't matter when you take and you don't have to cycle it or anything.Who here takes Creatine? I'm thinking about adding that to the stack. Never took it before.
