  • No proven side effects for creatine. Your body naturally creates creatine, it was however discovered that the body doesn't make the maximum amount of creatine it can use, hence supplementation. It's only creatine monohydrate that's proven effectiv…
  • As per the program, you can add chinups during bench press day and dips during deadlift day. Do this only if it doesn't affect the main lifts. The purpose of a beginner program though is to build up your strength and get you used to doing the move…
  • (Quote) Your body decides where to store fat. Usually at the waist, but when there's too much fat already it will be stored elsewhere. It will eventually be at your wrist as you can see with morbidly obese people, but I really doubt that's the loo…
  • Stronglifts was basically based on Starting Strength. Rippetoe has explained that the reason for that is he designed Starting Strength for his usual market. Which are high school kids starting out with weights and are primarily doing so because t…
  • (Quote) I was wondering why you're saying it's debunked when we're basically saying the same thing. I guess my saying regular intervals might be taken as me saying a person has to take protein something like every hour or so. What I meant was as l…
  • (Quote) There are vegan bodybuilders that build muscle from protein in soy and other beans.
  • (Quote) The only special thing about it is it's quickly absorbed by the body and the only time that's important is after workout nutrition. Though if you eat protein at regular intervals during the day you pretty much ensure you have protein ready …
  • (Quote) When you digest protein it's broken down to amino acids, these are what's used to build muscle. There are different amino acids needed and the body can break down certain ones to build others as it needs. Certain amino acids can't be made …
  • All forms of cooking destroy some soluble proteins, and the extent of the loss depends largely on the temperature at which the meat is cooked. Exposure to temperatures of 104 degrees F decreases soluble protein by 9.7 percent, while cooking at 176 d…
  • (Quote) Why did you stop stronglifts? How much were you lifting there?
  • Best is subjective. I would say salmon, but I bet a lot of people wouldn't agree with me.

  • Compound exercises are best for building mass. And even then it takes time to grow, if it was easy everyone would be buffed. https://youtube.com/watch?v=2zSWODbYbsc&index=98&list=PL3fB03J6Xve-2xYTXIjgHNCN1FQq8WmBQ
  • (Quote) We weren't telling you to do it faster, rather you're likely doing too many exercises. Here's an article you might want to read. jasonferruggia.com/how-to-build-muscle/
  • Creatine makes your muscles absorb water, hence not much left for your body so you get thirsty. No such thing as a nonresponder to creatine in my opinion. There are however people who already have creatine in them without supplement, hence no chan…
  • (Quote) It's fine as long as you get enough sleep whatever time it is you prefer sleeping. Also, stress inhibits muscle growth.
  • (Quote) GOMAD gets thrown around without the context it was originally intended with. SL was based on Starting Strength which was made by Rippetoe, the guy in this video. And this is what he says about it. https://youtube.com/watch?v=6HV-wvNa2GM
  • A person builds about half a pound of muscle a week. Beginners can gain more than that, other than that only way to gain more muscle is to use steroids. Gaining some fat is inevitable though, since you need to be at a calorie surplus in order to bu…
  • To add, the body releases cortisol about 45mins. after exercise. What this does is breakdown muscle to turn it into energy. The body developed this because in caveman days, if you're still doing something strenuous after 45mins. it's likely someth…
  • (Quote) Put simply, if you are still able to add weights to your lifts then SL is for you. Even if you only do this for bodybuilding, starting out with SL allows a beginner to ramp up the weight of his lifts and he can then switch to a bodybuilding…
  • Nearly a year ago. I remember now that I also tried out their cheap whey, the vanilla one. By mixing it I know there was whey in it, but no way to tell if they mixed in milk powder since it was repacked. When I asked if I could buy a sealed pack o…
  • I've bought dextrose from them.
  • If I remember correctly, dymatize iso100 is php3,800 at cnc.
  • Most meat are typically 20-25% protein. More processed versions have less, that's how you can tell that they have stuff added onto them.
  • (Quote) Compare your weight on a week to week basis, not day to day. As in take note of your weight everyday and compare your weight now to last friday's. Muscle builds at about half a pound a week, though I think beginners are able to gain more …
  • Dunno, just google it. Veggies, root crops, and rice are what I would recommend for carbs. Pasta, bread, and biscuits/crackers are what I avoid.
  • Meat is basically 20-25% protein. And you need about 130 grams of protein daily as maintenance, a bit more for muscle gain. So just check if you're getting enough. When I started I realized I have to double my food consumption so check as well if…
  • 120grams of chicken is good... for one meal. You should be having about five meals like that in a day (if that were your only source of protein).
  • It was a php1,000 off php6,000 purchase.
  • Problem with most pinoy typical diet is it's too much carbs not enough protein. For cheap sources of protein there's eggs, chicken breast, and ground beef. I'd suggest you cook at home instead of buying as it's a big difference in price if you hav…
