Thread: Building Muscle/Working out

I firmly believe in protein shakes...also in multivitamins...and also creatine. creatine is much better now than it was in the early 90s when it became the supplement for highschool and college athelets...

it is pure now and as long as you keep your supplement to around 2-3 grams pre workout and around 5 grams post workout you can benifit greatly. cycle this supplement 2 months on 1 month off and you will be fine...

and as far as only needing 46 grams of protein that is simply too low...that is what the fda says...but they are the ones that came up wtih the food pyramid that had people eating 11 servings of grains and made people fat from all the carbs....

if you are working out...1 to 1.2 grams of protein for every 1 pound of lean muscle mass...so if you are 200 lbs with 25% body fat you have 175 pounds lean muscle...so you can easily take in 175 grams of protein in a day...

you only need carbs in the morning and some preworkout...then some quick digesting carbs post workout...even just sugar is good after a workout...along with your 30 to 40 grams of protein and some good fats...

high protein diets burn more calories ... plain and simple...

I like how this thread has taken off...i thought this may be a good topic for people to discuss...fitness and diet are two of the most debated topics next to government healthcare steroids in baseball...hahaha

jockeys...have you tried MRI Black powder...works better than xplode for me...

and i just use plain old GNC brand protein

and plain old gnc creatine monohydrate...

good so far...

O yeah and as for the creatine factor....

when you first start your cycle you will imediately notice big gains...when you start your second cycle you will again gain but just not as noticible as the first time...

but it does work...

Test boosters..no, hi sugar creatine drinks...good but too expensive...all the other sups...stay away from...

creatine monohydrate powder with cinnomon and some sugar...these help to absorb and utilize the creatine...

the only other supps to try would be Glutamine or BCAA these are amino acids from protein...the most important aminos for muscls growth.

man i love this topic...
