What does µg mean?
µg or (ug or mcg as it is quite often written) is the correct symbol for the metric measurement of microgram. It is one thousandth of a milligram or one millionth of a gram.
Take this as an example:
1g = 1000mg = 1000000µg
Or consider this, moving the decimal place:
1µg = 0.001mg = 0.000001g (also can be written as 1e-6)
µ is actually a symbol for the Greek letter (mu) that means small.
Due to there not being Greek symbols in English typography most of the time. As in our keyboards do not have this symbol, there are two commonly accepted forms of this symbol and they are: ug and mcg.

Cutting Plan - An 8 Week Guide
Our Cutting Plan: The safe and easy way to cut that fat and tone that muscle

Many people have a misconception that if they do the same routines that everyone else does that they will not only get slim and trim, but those they will have the toned muscles in the process. The idealistic thought that somehow fat will morph into muscle is just not true. The fat has to be stripped away and the underlining muscle has to be cut. This 8 week plan is not intended to build muscle but to tone existing muscles as well as cut fat. Continue reading

Bulking Plan - An 8 Week Guide
8 week bulking plan
Get muscle mass the right way
When working out there is a very basic principle to remember. Use heavy weight to build and light weight to tone. In our bulking plan we use both to help achieve the best results. Let us think about the logic briefly, perhaps you have been doing sit ups, some bench pressing, and leg lifts but you have not seen any muscle mass forming. When was the last time you did a burn out or maxed out your weight? If you answer truthfully, the odds are that it has been a while. And this is why no muscle mass has formed. Continue reading
