    I checked it out on line. They have supplements. Is it possible to get natural raw cissus?


    Yes. I would like to be somewhere in between, but yes, preferably on the gymnist side.


    Hmm. Interesting. The trainer guy at the gym told me that as long as I eat to gain weight, do strength training(weight lifting), do minimum amount of cardio keeping my heart rate within a specific range that he showed me, stretch, I would actually gain weight. Mostly in lean muscle. The heart rate thing had to be in a certain range because if I go below, it is pointless, and if I go too high, it will affect my ability to build muscle. I wasn't too clear on the whole calculation. If anybody knows a link on how I can calculate my heartrate range, and what all that means specifically, I am interested.


    What is the purpose of taking creatine after the workout? Shouldn't it be taken prior only?


    Yes ty. That is why I said I will take the shake w/0 creatine when I sleep. Would you happen to know where I can get some cheap? I'm looking for a good link with lots of customer reviews on best products. If I want reviews on computer parts, I can go to newegg, and see what the customers rate as the best.

    This seems to be a pretty decent site:
    PROTEIN
    CREATINE

    you dont need all these supplements when you are starting up, dont be conned like everyone else with the pictures on the front. Creatine is completely unneccesary, that is for people that have reached their natural plateau in training and want to take it too the next level

    just eat more and more regularly and make sure it is the right stuff, and hit the weights properly

    No, that's what steroids are for.

    Lixluke, I'll reply to your message when I have time for a lengthy reply.

    What pictures? I thought creatine was for beginners that need to build lean muscle. OR anybody that is trying to build up.

    There is quite alot of construction jobs. All of them slave jobs that pay crap for intensive very dangerous work that has the opposite effect of being good for the mind and body.

    I found the following routine to be very good.


    2 hours before workout, take some nitric oxide. (NO Explode is relatively cheap and works wonders)

    Workout. I usually concentrate on two muscles a day.

    Within 30 mins. of working out have some whey protein and some natural protein, like peanut butter and especially meat.

    meat=cholesterol

    peanut butter=cholesterol

    Eat fish for protein....it's omega3 oils are what you seek for health while getting proteins.

    Well I would disagree with you about contruction being a slave job that pays shitty, but that is not the point of this thread. I will say that I do agree with you, in part, about contruction jobs not being the best choice for physical activity. Sure, you'll be strong and you'll feel manly, but you'll end up like most contruction workers: fat, fatigued, and aged. The amount of work done in the course of a week by many of them is not something the human body can do naturally (unless you are gifted or highly trained). Plus, you aren't allowed to take a "meal break" every 2-3 hours... especially if you have an asshole for a boss. This makes you fat since by the end of the day, you eat so many carbs to make up for the missed food you needed hours ago that it all gets stored as fat.

    They do get paid shitty. And a huge majority of them are imported from mexico because mexicans are the only ones who take the shitty pay. The construction around here has been nonstop for the past few years. The entire downtown is under construction. There are tons over tons of construction workers in Miami everywhere right now. Even if they got twice as much, it still is not worth the importance of the job.

    Law of supply and demand. If every single person in a nation has high level of education as such that everybody is as educated as a doctor. And everybody has high levels of physical fitness as such that everybody is as physically fit as a gymnist. Every person is physicall fit, and well educated. Who would take the important dirt jobs. Everybody qualifies for high level work. Therefore, people choose where they want to work based on desirability and incentive. Low wage jobs have the least desirability, and therefore should be paid according to what people who are highly educated would consider an acceptable amount of pay to do them.

    As have already been mentioned:

    -Eat nutritionally-dense food;
    -Avoid animal products;
    -Hemp produces the healthiest and most complete protein available for human consumption;

    As haven't been yet mentioned:
    -Green tea helps to burn fat, but only drink the decaf variety, since caffeine is a dangerous drug that can cause heart arrhythmia and precipitate sudden death;
    -Eat a variety of foods, including leafy green cruciferous vegetables;
    -Abstain from ejaculation for seven-day intervals to maximise your body's natural testosterone levels (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12506329&dopt=AbstractPlus)

    Why should he avoid animal products? I don't agree with that.

    you should consume protein within 20 mins of a workout not 30. and also before a workout.



    peace.
