SPORTS SUPPLEMENTS - what to take, what not to, and why

You are absolutely right about genetics playing a big part in getting swole but how do you "look" swole and not be it? Also, how do you know ex-cons are in horrible shape? Have you been to prison before? Another thing is not all people who workout in the park are ex-cons. Some people either go to the park for convenience or don't have acess to bally's or NYSC. I actually prefer the park although I have a membership to NYSC. First, I like to workout outdoors, I get a better pump improvising(sp?) and it is just a whole different vibe. The whole supplement thing I won't touch on anymore because I still think that 85% of it is still trash.

I think i missworded some of that.I meant some people are big and look muscular but actually not that strong at all.Ive never been to prison but have relatives that are always in and out and I used to work out at a gym where a grip of ex cons all work out together.I have a membership to 24 hr fitness but never work out there.I work out at a small gym where people take working out seriously and not there to prance and chitchat.
 
No, I am not a spokesman for Musclemilk, no I am not an average guy. I am at an advantage. I have never been fat, I've always been involved in sports ( football, track, hoops). I've played college football, I was trained by a very good strength and conditioning coach, and it became a part of me. I was blessed to have God given genetics, and this is the life I've always been around. See, there is a big difference in certain men, some men like to workout, I LOVE TOO ! I've been lifting weights since I was 14. I've been doing sit-ups for 21 years. It's a part of me. Body weight excersises, great shit dog, I'll do as many pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, dips, as ANY nigga on the street. I still do em. I'm 5'10, 228 lbs. I'm built like a football player, always have been. What I try and get across to everyone, is if you are going to use a supplement, I tried to point you in a direction of what works. Cytosport supplements are pretty good, that's my choice. Anybody that reads my post knows, diet is my #1 shit. Man, the food really sucks sometimes, chicken breast, brown rice, veggies and water, everyday :puke:but I decided 10 years ago, NO LOVE HANDLES, NO GUT. Lastly, I've said this over and over again. If you want that BOMB-ASS SEX, if you wanna fuck her like never before, I dare you to get in shape, I DARE YOU TO TRY, instead of making excuses, for those of you that do. WHATEVER YOU DO, STICK WITH IT !

You don't have to be strong to get a muscular physique. Strong is for powerlifters, strongman contest contestants. Some peoples' goal is to get a muscular physique and you don't have to be able to bench 600 pounds to achieve it. A muscular physique is created through hypertrophy in which lifting the correct amount of wieght and not over extending yourself is created. Have you seen the guy that some one posted whom set the bench pressing world record? He was'nt muscular at all and looked pretty out of shape if you ask me. Now take some pro bodybuilders who absolutely cannot lift that amount of weight but have some of the best physiques in the world. Dog, I'm really trying to understand where you are coming from because I still don't understand what one has to do with the other.
 
Got some N.O. Explode and Optimum Whey Protein from Bodybuilding.com...:yes:

Got some chicken breasts, yogurt, bananas, tilapia, bottled water...:yes:

Ate some fuckin' chocolate chip cookies...:angry:

(I'm trying though.) :lol: :dance:
 
ok my dumb ass went to sport authority and copped a bench and some weights now what....lol


normally i work out wit my brothers at the fire house but most of them ninjaz done transfer


a nucca like was all city bball bak in the day now im alot more bulky and husky then i use to be but can still push the rock but i do want to get bak to the shape i was bak in high school
 
I used to be 260 now I am down to about 220 with about 15 percent body fat I started out with muscle milk, multi mineral multi vitamin, green tea capsule, and b-complex. That shit worked then when I hit that plateau that everyone hits when there body stops responding as well I added a key ingredient: Vitamin C. 1000mg Vitamin C before cardio has been proven to help the body oxidize fat better. I started to see results again and as for the weight training I have been keeping with it. As for protein that Probolic 12 hour muscle feeder is the truth but I use that in conjunction with muscle milk. So in the morning after cardio I use Probolic, before workout and after muscle milk then for bed probolic shit works trust me. Hope this info helps contribute to an already great thread.
P.S. Muscular development is paramount to working out and fitness pick a copy up and be amazed by all the potent info in their pages every month. Peace!
 
I am a big fan of BSN and VPX products myself.

No-Xplode or No-Shotgun pre workout.

I am going to start taking BSN's Atro-Phex which I believe is a replacement for a product they used to have called Betalin. That product was way better than Hydroxycut or Lipo6.

You have to cycle on and off, and after a couple of weeks they have no effect. I'm not sure if they're good products for women either.

Yeah I know. Generally after 90 days, it does nothing for me. The Atro-Phex is BSN's new version of Betalin which I used before they took it off the market. That worked better than Hydroxycut, Lipo6, Ripped Fuel, and Redline.
 
I like to keep it simple with the sups but concentrate more on my diet and workout regimen.

Here is an automated spreadsheet to track your fitness progress.

1. All daily progress is keyed on a single page, no more jumping back and forth.
2. You type in your weight in the morning, click 1 button, and a new daily menu is created, dated, and all of your caloric/fat/carb/protien goals for the day are filled in automatically!
3. All of your foods are available in pull down menus.
4. Exercise tracking is also available via pull down menus.
5. No more cut-n-paste. Keeping track of everything now literaly takes a few seconds each day.

This is really helpful because I'm a vegetarian, but maybe you should post one for those that aren't.
