I used to be skeptical about that kind of thing, phoenix246, but you might be onto something. I always thought my dips were capped at about a dozen, then I switched to a slight decline angle and suddenly got to eighteen without much extra effort. It really does make you wonder what else our bodies are hiding.

That's a good question. Did your dad ever tell you what "one job at a time" actually meant to him, or did you just have to figure it out from how he lived?

Did you grind up the lentils first or just toss them in whole? I've been experimenting with blending them into ground meat to stretch it further but not sure if it really saves that much in the end.

Most folks overlook how it changes your brain chemistry over time though.

Used to think that was just a gimmick, but you're proving me wrong.
