RE: Protein Shakes/Supplements

[Bloodarrow42]

Time to get back in shape for wrestling season (first year wrestling). Been getting tips from Fuh, but thought I may as well post here.

 

How often should I use protein shakes for working out? How many times a day? Before/after workouts? Anything else I should have? Any other tips/etc? Right now in the 145-152 category, probably going to aim for below 145, but at the same time work on gaining muscle as well.

I use 20g\scoop protein powder, half scoop about 40 mins before gym, full scoop after workout. Id have em with breakfast too, other then that up to you

[Parumpapapums]

Never used them when i workedout/didsports Gl

Gaining muscle but losing weight? Mind = blown

[Flynn]

I'm not health/fitness expert

 

But I normally drink 2 shakes a day.I count them as meals, get 6 meals a day, 2 of them being protein shakes :)

i made a topic about this and yes im mad!

 

anyway... before a workout you should actually have food. i'd say some fast burning carb like rice and a good protein source like tuna. or just a tuna sandwich. THIS IS NOT THE IMPORTANT PART. if you want to though you can take a shot of jack3d or w/e the supplement for energy is.

 

Keep your workout under 1 hour. After that within 30 minutes take a protein shake. 1 and a half scoops preferably. (make sure your taking it with no fat, it slows down the rate of absorbtion. ei skim milk makes them taste good, water is better ) Also to raise your insulin to absorb protein faster some people use supplements like maltose something (its a supplemental sugar) or simply just a tablespoon of honey, a banana, melons

 

1 hour later eat your MOST IMPORTANT MEAL (anyone who says breakfast is, dickslap them) high protein and high fast acting carb all with 0 to very little grams of fat. EI some chicken breast (as lean as it can get) with some rice.

 

If your gonna get whey protein shakes also try to get some caesin protein shakes or cottage cheese. When you go to bed take a caesin protein or cottage cheese for a slow acting protein called caesin. It'll stop catabolism which will hinder your results a more than people think.

 

Btw its hard to lose weight while increasing strength unless your super fat. but at 150 pounds, i'd say just try to lose weight and sustain muscle.

Well what I do is drink one in the morning to get that protein in my system, it helps wake me up and it also helps from the work out the day before as my muscles get really sore and you need to get them protein asap. Then I do a full work out and drink one AFTER the work out.

 

I did recently buy P90X (I highly recommend it) and they have pretty much the same approach as to my first statment. Below I will list my meal for a day so hopefully that gives you a good idea.

 

 

This is the energy booster plan I am using btw and the * means immediately after work out.

 

 

Breakfast

1 cup Oatmeal

8 oz Skim Milk

1tbsp Protein Powder

1/2oz Raisins

 

 

Snack *

1 Protein Bar *

1 Recovery Drink *

 

 

Lunch

1 Shrimp Pasta

Pomodoro

 

 

Snack

8 oz Cottage cheese, 1%

 

 

Dinner

6 oz Extra-lean burger patty

1-1/2oz Low-fat melted cheese

2 cups Salad greens w/ cucumber and tomatoes

2 tbsp Dressing (your choice)

1/2 cup Fresh Berries

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hope this helps :tiphat:

Your last statement is very untrue. Of course it is not easy but it is DEFIANTLY a obstacle you can overcome and if you eat right and have a good work out YOU WILL be burning fat while GAINING muscle.
