It's pretty sad/pathetic how he treats his wife in the videos. God only knows how bad and mean he treats her off camera. Dudes like sorry rude and really disrespectful on camera and laughs about it so his girl is practically forced to laugh at it too. Not cool. Fake a** Cristian. Talks about Jesus ask the time but doesn't live the life by faaaaaar

My tip as a baker and chef is to put the fast carbs before workout and slow carbs after. Oates for example are slow and has a low glucemic index and amazing amounts of lysine amino acid so would fit perfect in a shake after your workout instead of in the morning when you want easy digestible and insulin spiked.

@@dereklunsford_ I believe so too, I am also concerned about the fact that all grains contains phytic acid. The acid prevents or inhibits the body to be able to absorb minerals i.e magnesium and zink which we know are vital to not only recover from exercise but also prostate is heavily depending on zink for proper functioning. If you want to be eating grains without phytic acid you need to use bacteria to break it down, and the best way is through sourdough bread that has fermented over 18 hours as studies suggests that the phytic acid dissappears through fermentation.
