please check my article here http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/layne25.htm

explains why ala is superior

Thanks for the link to your article Layne. Very informative. Do you think ALA used in conjunction with vanadyl would be overkill or could it be useful for a 40 year old endomesomorph with a dead metabolism? Thanks Again.

vanadyl is going to increase basal glucose uptake but not insulin stimulated glucose update; so unless you are a profile of metabolic syndrome or type II diabetic I don't think it's a good idea

OK, I'll finish off my vanadyl and fat burners then give an ALA and Dialene combo a try. Incidentally, my gym has about 50 eight by tens thanks to the gym's manager TJ (a great natural competitor) and you are among the pics. You signed it saying not to let anyone outwork you (which I saw you had on tee's at one point). Actually it seems many of the drug free WNBF and OCB pics are congregating on one wall and I'll be bringing in a contest pic to add to that section. I was doing legs last night and relating your recent hack squat footage with a fellow gym member. Like yourself I am a fan of all bodybuilding but am always proud to hype the real drug free pros out there. Thanks again.

Layne,
I contacted the NGA to purchase my pro card and I was told that the promoter of my show (Earl Snyder) hadn't turned in any info on it. I tried to email him about a week back and didn't get a response. Any advice on what I should do?

Layne,

I searched your FAQ and couldn't find an answer to a couple questions:

1. What do you think of taking apple cider vinegar (or vinegar in general) prior to a carb meal to decrease the GI of the meal?

2. Why is R-ALA sometimes referred to as K-R-ALA?

Thanks

1. haven't looked into it much though I am not really a fan of supplemental acetate as it may be converted to acetyl CoA which may help with glycogen synthesis but will also initiate formation of malonyl CoA which will inhibit fat oxidation
2. it's not. not unless it has potassium added to it

I would email the president Anthony Bostino about your dilemma, he's a good guy and will likely have a solution. IF they are jackasses about it then I would find documentation from the show of your placing. If that doesn't work take a picture next to your overall trophy lol.

Do you think David Ps diet would be good for me. I am a natural and I am trying to drop my BF%

I generally don't recommend ketogenic diets... I would read through this thread, read my articles http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/layne.htm

I hate to sound like a jerk but I have covered my thoughts on ketogenic diets in depth multiple times

Sorry man I started to read through your sticky and got half way through and did not see much on it so decided to ask.
