I recall looking into this when it last came up. Came across a "story" written by a guy who consumed what he feared to be a large amount (I think it was like ~400g/day), and when he spoke to his doc about it he was advised it was high but acceptable, for his size (he was like 200lbs built I think). The article then went on to explain how your body handles excess mercury etc which was pretty interesting

I do recall a few years ago of some athlete who ate a lot of tuna and having higher than norm mercury levels. I say it would have to be an isolated case. Well hoping anyways... I eat the best " John west " lol

Not me, I eat shitty Coles brand tuna and it tastes like ass to be honest. Meh, I eat tuna for the brotein, not the taste.

Well looks like I'll stick with my "2 cans of tuna a day routine" then haha :)

The trick is to time your purchase of tuna for specials...JW/Greenseas usually $1 a can at either woolies or Coles.

Or buy 4 pack of JW/Greenseas, which works out 1.50/can.

Yep, saw that come on sale right after I purchased 24 cans of Coles tuna. FML.

Hahahaha bad mistake

I gave the Coles tuna a go the other day, lemon and pepper

It tasted like a lemon meringue, disgusting

Yep, worse even was that I threw the receipt in the bin and couldn't exchange them for the JW ones :(

I made that mistake once, so I jsut stick to springwater now. There's an old saying about not being able to polish a turd..... hahaha

Give the JW or Greenseas lemon and pepper a go, it's much better. Hot chilli is good too but my digestive system didn't agree so no more :(

Will do mate, will keep an eye out and stock up hard when they're on sale again :cheers:

Hey guise - I don't have a build thread but I did a few measurements last night after 3+ months of solid gym work. I don't want to sound like I'm tooting my own horn too much, but I was really excited by the results; and most of my work in the gym has solely been attributed to information I've extracted from the health+wellbeing section on these forums. Much love brah's. :wub:

I started my first day weighing in at 76kg's, 174cm tall, 17.8%bf, thin, pasty, scrawny and generally weak as piss.

I started doing around 4 or 5 exercises of each upper body days, followed by lower body days, then a day off, then repeat.

For upper body:

Chest press 3x8

Shoulder press 3 x 8

Lat pull down

assisted wide grip chin ups

incline bench press

Military press

pull ups or bro curls

suicedes

rope pull for tri's/

For lower body

Squats

Deads

plate leg press

quad extension

hamstring curl

lunges

standing/seated calf raises

I would also try and do some hypertrophy stuff after each workout, mostly 30 seconds on/off on the rowing machine or spin bike. Or I'd do some sprints in the park or on the beach.

So last night, I weighed in at 78.5kg's, 18%bf, and a 7cm increase in chest width, 1cm decrease in belly circumference. 2cm gain in arms and legs.

tl:dr: Massively stoked that SAU fitness can provide excellent info. Cheers!
