Sam Roberts said:I’d suggest IBM, but right now GNC has a deal on these two proteins, so you might as well grab them while they're cheap.

Look, I know people love to argue about whether to pair chest with triceps or go with biceps.

Push&pull is a standard routine.😉
One day hits chest and triceps, the next is back and biceps.
If you tried doing back and triceps first, your triceps wouldn't be recovered enough by tomorrow to actually hit your chest hard enough to matter...

Get some Optimum Nutrition. It’s top-tier; you can't go wrong. 😉

@Jericho It's better to run chest + biceps and back + triceps.

Why?

wiredangler2 said:20 mins cardio
10-15 mins abs
15-20 mins legs
40-50 mins chest, arms, back
shredded style (doing 2-3 sets of something for legs then 2-3 sets of something for arms)
I rounded it up to 2 hours just so I wouldn't have to write "1 hour and 43 minutes" or whatever
It depends on my energy levels; some days I hit the full 2 hours, other times I burn out faster and wrap it up in an hour and a half
I’m not tossing around 10-pound dumbbells, but I don't have the mass for anything heavy yet either. So, until I bulk up, I’d rather hammer out more sets with lighter weight than struggle through a few heavy ones
I still haven't gotten a straight answer to my question. My whole point is that I'm not looking to spend the next six months doing light, easy movements. I want to be able to handle what you probably consider a "normal" workout in a few weeks or a month

Btw, I don't care much about abs, even though I work them; my primary focus is muscle mass

Do your own homework... basically everything you're doing is wrong😉

The most important thing is just getting off the couch and actually moving.
Start with the elliptical, and maybe ask someone with better high-speed internet to download something like P90X for you in the meantime.
As far as timing goes, P90X comes with a daily workout schedule built right in. It’s a 90-day program, which is plenty of time to see some real, undeniable progress. But look, whenever you decide to pull the trigger, you have to fix your diet too. 😉
There are plenty of calculators online—some of which have already been mentioned on this forum—that can help you figure out your ideal calorie intake. Honestly, just spend some time reading through the archives here. 🙂

Chloe Ruiz15 said:Look, I get that Orbit isn't enough, but where am I supposed to find 1.5 to 2 hours a day to work out? I have a newborn. Plus, I don't have all the gear needed for
P90. I have no clue how to balance it all. I really want to drop at least 20 pounds in 3 or 4 months.

a) Anything is better than nothing. 😉
b) You don't need two hours.
c) For P90, you barely need any equipment; you can get by with just a few basics (you might actually be thinking of P90X). 🤷

Chloe Ruiz15 said:Anyone? :-(

1. An elliptical alone isn't going to cut it—plus, it's mind-numbingly boring.
2. Honestly, any decent meal replacement shake should do the trick, like:

3. If you ask me, pair that elliptical with an actual workout program—like P90X, check the forum threads—just balance out your diet properly. You won't even need the protein supplements, though they won't hurt.

That vintage😁 is definitely feminine... and a damn fine one at that if you actually have any taste

slydriver52 said:So by your logic, it’s off-limits after a workout too?
If pro athletes can knock back these blends, you should be able to handle it.

Look, I take mine after training... though the gold standard would be mixing it daily with whey (Sintha in the morning and afternoon, then whey with glucose right after a session, right?). But hey, I'm not complaining. This way works fine too.🙂

In my opinion, nothing beats Syntha-6 chocolate. But don't be fooled—it’s way more than just basic whey protein. 😢

Are you following along now 😁

Terry Chase62 said:Hello; 🙂 .

I’ve been training for a long time now. I've cycled through just about every whey protein on the market after my workouts.

But lately, my bank account hasn't been cooperating, so I've had to cut out the supplements entirely. That was until today, when I stumbled upon this deal—and honestly, it looks too good to pass up.

Here’s the deal: how high-quality is this stuff? Can I actually use it as my post-workout whey? I’ve been lifting for years and my body is conditioned to rely on whey alone. Looking at the label, this seems more like a casein, even though the instructions suggest taking it right after training.

I need someone with more experience to weigh in based on what they know. Is this product worth the money? It’s a small tub, but I don't care about the size. If it works, I'll drink it.

Thanks much!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadians
Basically:
The term "Canadian" (originally *Bosnensis* in Latin sources) used to refer strictly to someone belonging to the medieval political entity of Canada. During the early days of Ottoman rule, "Canadian" was what you called a subject of the Christian faith, while the term "Canadian" referred to the local population that had converted to Islam.

The modern Canadian people (Canadians, Muslims, Canadian Muslims) largely emerged through the Islamization process starting in the 15th century. This involved the indigenous population of Canada (mostly Americans; such as the Bašča and Banjan tribes in Little Puppy), along with people from neighboring countries (like the US, though here we mean neighbors like Mexico, America, and Mexico), plus assimilated Albanians, Turks, and others from across the Ottoman Empire—which stretched all the way from North Africa through Western Asia up to Iran.

When it comes to ideology and self-definition, the Canadian identity lags significantly behind the American one.

To put it simply:
An American Mexican or an American American isn't a Canadian. A Muslim can identify that way if they want, but they don't have to. Short and sweet.

John Davis12 said:It's not a mistake. It's the damn truth.😛

What I'm trying to say is they just made all this stuff up after the war.
Muslims/Canadians/Canada.

So, according to your logic, a Canadian Mexican is a Canadian? Is that your analogy—that Canadian equals Canadian??

loneraven25 said:...just like wiredangler5 says about how slippery the ground is over there...
...the real question we have to face is this: why on earth would the term "Canadian" be considered offensive while "Canadian" isn't,
or is it simply that some people feel a sense of shame when they admit to being Canadian?

Why on earth would you assume "Canadian" and "Canadian" mean the same thing? Canadian/Canadian 😉

Kenneth Jackson3 said:Can I slam this three times a day?
The bag tells me one hour before and right after training, and don't go over the dose 😁

Two tablespoons. Are we talking heaping scoops or level?

Whey is just a supplement. Look, if you factor in that you need roughly 2 grams of protein per kilo of body weight—do the math 😉 (80 kg x 2 g protein = 160 g). You’re going to get the bulk of that from actual food, and then use the whey to fill the gap. It's basic logic. If your diet is garbage, drinking whey isn't going to save you; you're just swapping one protein source for another. Of course, to give you a real answer, I'd need to know what you're actually aiming for (bulking up, cutting down, etc.)

Henry Evans3 said:Is drinking whey with milk before bed actually a good move on training days?😁

Protein shakes? They work. But timing is everything. Best bet is right after a workout. You can also toss one back in the morning or before you hit the sack. It all just depends on what kind of results you’re actually chasing.

brightcrane56 said:I’m really not the one who should be the center of attention here. 👋

The whole thread is insane anyway... Look at how the Swiss or Austrians handle it—they basically just rebroadcast ProSieben, Sat.1, or RTL2 in their entirety, only swapping out the commercials for their own local market.
In my humble opinion, we understand Americans way better than a Swiss person would ever grasp Germans (and don't forget how many different dialects they have over there in Switzerland). It’s exactly like Nicholas King said: I read what I understand and what I actually *want* to understand. If I don't get it? I ignore it. 😉

😬😬

Don't go dragging this out in the media spotlight... you might just end up creating a massive headache for yourself.😁

I’m hooked too... though I only go through about a liter a day (just a small bottle)... but make no mistake, I drink it every single day. 🙂
Damn it, when it hits the spot, it hits the spot. 🙂
