Quick post today, no time to really go in depth with anything. So I will post a few things.

Last nights training.

Training: Push

Dumbbell Floor Presses: 3 sets (1 second pause at the floor)

Shrugs on the standing calf machine supersetted with neck extension on the lying leg curl machine: 3 Sets (The shrugs on the calf raise felt good with a full stretch. The neck extension on the leg curl will definitely get you some weird looks from people. But who gives a shit, I want a bigger neck. I layed backwards on the machine so my head rested under the leg pad, put my hands on the floor for stability, and extended with the neck.)

5 Reasons Soy Sucks
From T-Nation

Q: Soy protein is touted as a health food, but Testosterone has always said that people should avoid it. What do you think?

A: Soy is for dorks. That's what I think. But people love lists, so here are five reasons not to eat soy:

Reason 1 — Toxicity: Soy increases your toxic load. It's one of the most sprayed crops. Their high content of pesticides increases your ever-increasing toxic load. In addition, aluminum content skyrockets in processing.

Reason 2 — Potential hypothyroidism: Soy contains goitragens, which are compounds that lead to hypothyroidism. To learn more about fighting hypothyroidism, attend one my Biosignature Modulation seminars.

Reason 3 — Blocking mineral absorption: Soy has a high content of phytates, which are known to inhibit the absorption of both macro-minerals (i.e. calcium) and trace minerals (i.e. zinc). The good news is that meat consumption blocks phytates. If you're going to eat tofu, make sure to eat some meat (ironically) during the same meal.

Reason 4 — Link to Attention Deficit Disorder: Soy-based infant formulas are linked to ADD. They contain 80 times more manganese than breast milk. Too much manganese content is linked to neurotoxicity.

Reason 5 — Increased cardiovascular load: Hemaglutinin is found in soybeans. This compound is known to make red blood cells aggregate, therefore increasing your cardiovascular load.
