yep! haha, i started laughing. Then i started looking for the ROCK protein

 

Im a big fan of Optinum Nutrition, also i love Carnivore

 

i use to buy walmart protein its cheap but then i did a little rserch and found that not all protein powder are made equal, now i only buy MTS and MTS only, cheap, pure. tasty. 45 bucks for 5 lb tub.

 

bench pressing is no bueno for your shoulders.

Chocolate Milk and NOW Whey Protein.

 

This is incorrect.
Power, Strength, and size can all be achieved, but long, slow cardio should be avoided.. Look at any Olympic Sprinter. Do you think they got as powerful and big as they did from running slow? Nope. They did sprints, over and over and over. All while at their max heart rate.. Now here's the trick.. Go hard for 30 seconds, then rest for 30, then balls to the wall for 30, then rest... See where I'm going here.. Intervals have proven to be most beneficial for the body.. Slow Cardio actually increases the chance for hypothyroidism, and is more likely to "eat" muscle.

 

I can assure you non of the IFBB pro does HIIT lol.


On another note has anyone of you guys take a week off after month and month of training, i've been doing 6day on 1 day off for the pass 4 month now and i had to take a week off this week because of finals. man my body is thanking me, i feel like im on cloud nine.

 

I don't like taking more than 3 days off, I start to feel like shit.

 

Anyone take Casein protein before bedtime? I physically can not eat any more with the amount of hours I work. Especially with the intensity at my job. Not to mention the damn heat (20-30 degree's hotter than outside). Winter is great, I can eat a fat horse all day. But Summer drains me and forces me to drink alot of water. I haven't gained weight in awhile and my only hope to increase my foods is at night.

 

I do. I don't do it for mass gains.

 

I'll give it a shot. 3 sticks of celery loaded with PB sound good?

 

Yup. It's also in Milk too

 

Giant glass of chocolate milk for me

 

I already have 4 servings of milk with my supper usually around 8 pm, depending on when I get done with the gym.. Which is usually 6pm. I hate milk lol

 

My Wife bought an extra gallon of milk this week... with the same expiration date. Trying to finish 2 gallons of milk before I go out of town for work.

 

if i did that i would feel like shit all day, i only drink almond chocolate milk now, they have omega 3 and calcium without all the animal hormones
