I am using currently soya isolate almost out but already have a big bucket of whey from BP.

PWO @ min = 40-50g soya (soon to be whey)
60g oats (as i am trying to reduce BF%)
heaped teaspoon of peanut butter
heaped teaspoon of honey
blended with half skimmed milk half water

you guys probably think this is crap but do you have any suggestions on this or how to change it without buying L-Glt etc also have some CEE on the way so that could be added to Pre or post.

cheers and sorry for how many of these you guys and gals get..

Hi mate, I started around your age (but I think still only look about 25 cough*) so crack on with it, I've gone from 13 stone fat tw@t to 17 stone no so fat tw@t. It can be done at our age so don't let that put you off.

PWO I have:

40g Protein
60g WMS (Waxy Maise Starch)
with water, and a few other bits do a search on this and you'll get the full range.

With regards to yours Oats are fine but WMS is a lot better I'd drop the Peanut Butter, Honey and Skimmed Milk, maybe some glucose instead and deffo water.

But I'm no expert in this field so bump for someone who is.

cheers for that harry, what makes me cringe is the fact I started at 13 yrs old lmfao if only i had carried on, this time though I am trying to learn to do the whole thing properly.... well so the age will allow.

That was my biggest failing when I started, I really wasted two years with bad diet and training, then I found this board and learn't so much. They say when you get to a certain age you stop learning, b0llocks, I learn something new everyday with this board (even if it's only that Daps is moving house) LOL.

There really is some good info and people on this board and the mods will bend over backwards (some forward) to help you mate, just ask away. As I say age really isn't stumbling block if your focused.

Nail the training and diet and bingo!
