I alternate and spot train... If I feel like Im lagging then I throw it in

I don't do calves on leg days because you're sort of incorporating your calves already in all of your exercises. I like to do calves after upper body exercises and Ill never to core on leg days because you should be engaging your core a lot to balance.

 

Took preworkout for the first time in a week. Pooped twice before leaving for work

 

dat intense dosage of caffeine haha

 

I've been eating my protein shakes more consistently in the morning. Pretty sure I witness my thumper dump implode on itself. Thing was so gawt damn big that scientifically it should have had its own gravitational field.

 

They are thick

 

That's what I sort of figured after my post... YOLO NO SHAME

 

Nope

 

I want calves like this



I am a long ways away

But I do work them on both my legs days. Shaky foot on the brake pedal

 

Can you cook with protein powder? like it were thrown into cookies or something?

 

yes you can

I dont see why not. What everyone needs to realize is your body will only take what it needs. Anything extra just goes down the shitter.

Better spandex up then....

I had a friend who was taking a pre -during-and post workout shakes. It wouldn't be small servings either. He didn't believe us

I have actually been thinking about getting into bike racing. I wouldn't be anything special, but that's why they have noob races

And you can build up a race bike (aka something you don't mind crashing) for under 600 if you play your cards right w/used parts.

 

Snicker doodles and oatmeal raisins?

 

O yes, I know far too well on how much bikes cost. I did downhill for a small stint. Bout 4 years, spent well over 8k on bikes, at one point I had six, I'm down to five now. But yes buy everything used and you can have yourself a decent road bike.

 

Better start biking like you want to do an iron man. Those fuckers have cows not calves.

yep. I make protein pancakes

1 scoop vanilla protein powder
half cup instant oats
mash up one banana
egg whites
pecan bits

mix it all up and cook on low heat. they burn easy. you can also add in applesauce too if you want. When using banana or applesauce you dont even need syrup bc they are so moist already

 

when ever I make mine they come out sorta thin... Same with yours?

 

thats the best way to fuel your body before to fuel your body to actually last and not harm it. During is a what ever your body wants really (I do water only). Post is the most important part.. your body is starving for fuel after a workout and in order to prevent muscle breakdown you need to replenish your glycogen storage.
