![]() | Re: New Guy Just Starting Out! welcome to the site dude i aint been here long either. Its packed full of usefull advice so take full advantage. In my opinion you need to figure out which you want to focus on either gaining muscle or loosing fat because you wont get any considerable muscle gains while your dieting down. im guessing by your meal regime that your on a diet, and in order to gain muscle you need a calorie surplus and a considerably higher daily intake of protein at least 1.5 grams per pound of bodyweight. perhaps others will advise you differently and feel free to correctme if im wrong, but if i were you i would firstly concerntrate on burning fat, then once i was happy with my weight loss i would start a new and clean bulking regime. also its not essential but if you want to maximise your training intensity get a training buddy and hit the gym because theres nothing like healthy competition to get you motivated !!!! |

![]() ![]() | Re: New Guy Just Starting Out! agree with deejpj, a good supp but a little too pricey. try looking at myprotein.co.uk or bulkpowders.co.uk, both advertise on this site, good amino count and pretty darn cheap! let us know how you got on with the thermobol, i tried it once before, and it made me feel like crap, not to mention that burning feeling from the hot pepper! but best of luck. |
