    Diet and cardio will always be #1 for fat loss, not weight loss.
    Start with your basics - Eat-Smart protein powder, aminos, liquid multi vit and kre-alkalyn caps I you'd like.
    If you're interested in a fat burner w/out the jitters I can get ahold of that plus many great pre-workouts that are stimulant free so you won't be "jacked"out of your mind.

    Ya, I need to work legs for sure! Have really enjoyed running right now as my boxing conditioning has gone through the roof from it and it helps me keep the weight down for sure! Not great #'s but for just starting I'm running 5k's in 25min and have a 7min mile! When I started I was running 10 min miles. My resting heart rate is in the 50's now so think I will transition to sprints/more leg work??

    Was thinking of trying NO explode caffeine free since I work graveyards and workout out after work in the AM and don't want to be spun! A friend said to look for something with creatine, glutamine and NO but not sure if it's got good amounts of those! Could I just have that pre-workout and a protein drink with glutamine after and hit the sack? I'd prob end up doing an Upper/Lower split 4 days a week and hit some light jogging in the evening before work like 2-3 times a week!

    Upper/Lower would hit all the big moves like squat, dead, cleans, press, handstand push up (bench and dips jack up my shoulder), rows, pull ups and then some arm work! Reps would prob be 5x5 for bigger lifts and 3x8 for the others.....sound decent?

    I use H-BLOCKER and MORPH...BOTH are stimulant free MORPH opens the flood gates for protein synthesis by allowing the pump to take action in a time released pill. (use 3x a week as it stays in your system for up to 48hrs)
    H-BLOCKER soaks up the muscle fatiguing ions allowing me to get an extra rep or set in all while providing me with the vascularity.
    On my days off I use PWR for a pre workout that contains the beta alanine that you can actually feel.
    Let me know If I can help ya out. 100% $ back guarantee

    Just heavy and as many as I can do. Usually around 10. New thing I started but instead of having my mind set on doing 8 or whatever I just try to go til I physically can't. Between 6-10 is what I aim for.

    I like whole food vitamins but find I really dont need them with my Jack LaLane Juicer and I eat fruits/Veggies with almost every meal!

    May try West Side for Skinny Bastards to try and put on some size once my work competition is over. What's the consensus on cardio and weights together? Could use as a warm up/cool down on upper body days???

    I'll pm u prices tomorrow.

    Cardio POST weights. The point of cardio post weights is to target the fatty cells after the glycogen cells are already depleted.
    If u do cardio before weights you'll just burn up extra energy. If you're worried about warming up then do max 10mins LOW intensity or just light weight warm ups on free weights keeping your rest periods low for a few sets.
