Should I Take Casein Or Whey Protein? Trying to decide on which proteins to use at what times and for what reasons can be a mind-numbing process. It is my hopes that this article can shed some light on the subject. There are basically two major proteins in the bodybuilder's arsenal. Those being casein and whey. The purpose of this article series is to give you an in-depth look at the properties of each of these proteins, explain what it all means and why it is important to you. The Myths So, you've got a choice. Well, I am sorry to say that those people are just plain wrong. To truly get the most from your protein supplementation, you will need to utilize both types of protein in your repertoire of supplements. The Facts Whey Whey is a by-product of cheese production. Fast refers to the amount of time it takes to be fully metabolized. The two dominant pathways here are the creation of a new protein from the individual amino acids or oxidation into urea and possibly glucose. This is a good thing! Casein But, here is the kicker.

Isaiah 40:31 gif by MarijaK5 | Photobucket Power Up Your Pull-Ups - Anabolicminds.com by Ben Bruno T-Nation Pull-ups are to workout routines like vegetables are to nutrition. We all know we should eat lots of fresh vegetables, but how many of us actually do? The same goes for pull-ups. It's an exercise that should be in any training program, regardless of whether the goal is strength or physique oriented. According to strength coach Mike Boyle, lifters should be able to do pull-ups with as much weight (including bodyweight) as they can bench press, meaning that a 200-pound guy that bench presses 300 pounds should be able to do a pull-up with 100 pounds added. In my opinion, a 1:1 pull-up to bench press ratio should be the minimum. Sadly, I rarely see that happening, and considering pull-ups have been removed from most middle school physical education curriculums – because so few kids can even do them – it's doubtful that we have a generation of kick-ass "pull-uppers" on the horizon.

inklewriter - Education Education inkle is looking to bring interactive stories to the classroom, and give teachers free and simple get-stuck-right-in software to use with their students. From within a web-browser, the inklewriter will let students make and play interactive stories with no programming required. Why make stories interactive anyway? The way our stories work is simple: the reader is given the text of a story in a small chunks, and after each, they get to make a decision about what happens next. That could be what a character says, or does - but it could also be a deeper choice, like why a character has done what they've done, or how they feel about something else in the story. Our first project, Frankenstein, uses interactivity to explore the different facets of Mary Shelley's original novel - allowing the reader to discover different aspects of the world, follow up hints and allusions in the text, and maybe even take some narrative paths that Shelley herself considered. Oh, and it's all free.
