Does eating dinner late at night, an hour before bed, make you fat?

I just ordered a bottle of L-Theanine, in hopes that the reports of it's combination with caffeine can help with my struggles in focus and energy. I've tried everything up until this point; a strict sleep schedule allowing me 8 hours of sleep, I've always had a good healthy diet, and for the past month I've been going to the gym Monday through Friday, not missing a single day. And while I definitely feel a lot better doing all this, I'm still struggling to find energy in the later half of the day to do the things I'm passionate about.

tl;dr experiences with L-Theanine and caffeine?

If you are doing low weight high reps (above 15). You are a waste of space. Either go home or lift heavier. You are robbing people of their gains.

I've been working a lot of strange shifts recently covering from a colleague. He's on call 24/7 and I had to attend a bunch of shit that went wrong.

As a result, my sleeping pattern is absolutely shattered. I've been grabbing an hour here, two hours there. How do I fix it now he's back? I'd like to have great sleep hygeine again, preferably 8 hours in the evening for my gains.

>> What´s your fun story ?

I was over at a frieds house once and a guy stopped over that is quite a meathead.

He stopped over to grab a vial of test from a buddy of mine. My buddy just joking around said if you inject the whole thing right now I will give it to you for free.

So he went ahead and filled 3 syringes to the hilt and injected it all. I dont recall whether it was enathate or prop, however does it even really matter.

Needless to say that guy was sick as a dog for close to a week. Extreme sickness for a couple days.

Bottom line, dont be a dumb ass.

Hey anon,

Last week I hit 1/2/3/4. Natty. Rest of my gym team has gone pro model or pro card bodybuilding.

Today went to the gym, could not even bench 35lb x 20. Had to drop down to 25 lb and I could barely do 5 reps per set. No tears or damage, I didn't even feel anything, there is not even post-workout swelling in the pec.

Feeling like I'm not going to make it. Any ideas on what this could be ? Going to a sport physio tomorrow.

Time to settle this once and for all, pic related is an excerpt from Practical Programming for Strength Training (Rip's book).
He shows a diet example for someone who is basically auschwitz mode and one for a fat person. I can't see this "shitty diet advice" everyone on fit is talking about, looks pretty well balanced to me.
Thoughts?

I wanna try this but looking at just the first day he has 4 different types of bench pressing going on for like, 4 sets each, I don't know how I'm gonna do it.

When I usually lift, I go for a weight I can only do 10 reps for in a set. I get through 3-5 sets and on my 4th or 5th I can barely get to the 5th rep.
