At least I like the approach, waiting for more stuff. I like the general advice, many "internet nutritionists" seem to miss that point completely.
About the milk thing - that's basically word to word what I got from another researcher (the ph.d type, not the internet forum kind). Personally I don't feel a difference - I tried going without milk for about 2 months and pretty much had the same results and sensations as with. I'm not discarding the possibility though. Anyway, what ever your nutritional "thing" is, it's not to be underestimated. Even if there's no proven value, the psychological effects can still be considerable.
For example, I've never observed any significant performance difference if I drink coffee or not. On the contrary, when I'm "on coffee" and skip the morning cup, my performances falter. But during intensive preparation I still cut it out, not as much for the physiological effect, but because that sort of uncompromising attitude helps me maintain a similar "training mindset" through out that period. If I start to make compromises in diet, I pretty much start make them in training also and then the whole thing crumbles and folds.
I'll be very interested in what he has to say about creatine as I'm pretty convinced it makes reasonable difference in cw, a little in dyn and non existent in STA. Bust my myths and save me some money
So far that's pretty much the only supplement I'm putting my money on (tried quite a few).
