Almost done with my first Kilo of shake. I bought the cookies n cream flavour, apparently it was a new flavour so I thought I'd try it. Tasted alot like Vanilla ice cream but I'm not complaining. Gonna buy Optimum Nutrition for the next Kilo. I heard chocolate flavours mean less protein because the cocoa takes up a small % of the protein, so outside of chocolate what's an awesome flavour? (and not vanilla either)
On their website there's this "Rocky Road" flavour...what the hell is that?
I end up getting sick of the flavours I just get the plain whey. Plus it costs more!ghettoperson wrote:

Stretching post workout lengthens the muscles and encourages further muscle growth, or so I've read. There's a lot of literature on the net about it.
Good God I need a little weight. As much as I eat I can't seem to gain anything. I'm only 130lbs for Christ's sake.

Go to bodybuilding.com and read some articles about bulking up. Also read up about your caloric intake - you should be eating 500 cals above your body's maintenance level. If this doesn't do anything after two weeks, up it by a further 300.
If I remember correctly maintenance level goes a little something like
200lb -2k daily
180lb -1800 daily
165lb -1650 daily ... etc
Will vary according to activity level and metabolism of course. It's just a general rule. Michael Phelps need not apply himself to this formula with his 12k a day diet.

Will be way more mate. I know some ectos that eat 4000kcals per day (while working out, though) and still have a hard time putting on weight.Kmar wrote:

^Watch the fourth video there, he explains it really good.
That doesn't sound right, aren't men supposed to eat 2500cal a day and women 2000cal?Kmar wrote:

Try this, it's a rough estimate but gives you an idea.

Obviously genetic factors, activity level (see Micheal Phelps example), and age play into it. However, thinking back I think the article(s) I've read on recommended caloric intake were focused on trimming down. Not bulking up. .. so perhaps that's why the numbers were low. It would seem that a maintenance intake is more like 15 to 16 calories per lb, whereas losing weight would be closer to 10 calories per lb. oops. it was a long time ago ... like Muscle Media 2k days .Jebus wrote:

To lose weight or cut you want to eat about 500 cals below your maintenance.
For the record, ON Banana tastes fucking awful. Like chemical waste but with a hint of those shitty candy bananas in it.

I really can't stress enough how fucking disgusting this stuff is.
Yeah I fucked up and accidentally forgot to check the box that changed the flavour, it was on Banana by default.
