the fuck

protein powder/weight gainer isn't some magic substance that makes you gain weight, they're just used in addition to normal meals

he needs to eat more, plain and simple. try eating 5-6 meals spread out over a day.

yeah you need to take in more calories than you burn but it's a bitch to count calories. the easiest way is to buy some weight gainer protein. I mean like the 11lb bucket of it. it seems like a lot but you'll need it. I've recently been bulking and I've been through 3 of em in a 6 week period and I gained about 15 lbs of muscle mass. do like 6 scoops a day with whole milk. i split it up 3 scoops 2x a day or you could do 2 scoops 3x a day whichever is easier.

just like training in the gym you gotta train yourself to eat good. here's good basic diet stuff that i got a lot from:

Supps
Nutritionwise, I just take MenScience Multivitamin. For workouts, I use MyoFusion chocolate whey protein and a couple other MenScience products: Thermogenic Formula and CLA supplement. I don't really see the need for creatine or any of those other pre-workout supplements. A lot of them have caffeine so I can't really have them anyway since I have high blood pressure.

do not listen to anything this guy says. that is on the border of absolutely impossible even with anabolic steroids.

if you want real/practical results, figure out how many cals you should be eating a day and make sure to hit that number consistently. real food is way better than protein powders anyday, enjoy your bulk because cutting is not as fun

ayo goldeni how did that Musclepharm fat burner workout for you?

I was curious if there was excessive caffeine in that? I was planning on stacking with Assault.

F/22, it worked pretty good. Unfortunately I didn't take great advantage of it cause I didn't really drink 1 gallon of water a day (diuretics is crazy) & it kept me up all night cause I always took the 2nd set at around 5-6. I lost 2% BF from it, coulda lost more if I followed it better

But I'm starting again.

I just bought it from WinnyVs.com they have buy one musclepharm product get the same one free, I talked to the lady since its not on the site she said just buy one & they throw another one in there, its going until the 31st.

Just got in some CLA and now waiting on Extend(BCAA) to add to my supplements.. Decided to pass on a fat burning supp and just use CLA and Protein! Here is what im going to work with for awhile:

- Whey Protein
- Multi Vitamin
- Omega 3
- CLA
- BCAA

About to finish week 4 of this program and im going to switch programs.. Going to do a lean muscle training program next week for 12 weeks.. I will burn more fat and build lean muscle faster! But its been going good, i should be at 10 pound loss mark by sunday which is perfect in timing...

ON is awesome but I got tired of their flavor. I could hardly go through a 2lb tub of their vanilla ice cream flavor, got tired of it after like 6 drinks, same with mint chocolate.
