Stay away from sugar(its ok to take some in after you train though), pasta, white bread(or any for that matter).

Eat: Brown/ Wild Rice, Frozen or Fresh veggies, any lean protein (Fish,lean beef, Poultry), Sweet Pot. instead of Baked. Egg Whites w/ a yoke or 2. Protein Shakes are good but theres no substitute for whole food...Breakfast should be your largest meal. Take about 5 grams of creatine in before you lift...No need for a multi you get more then enough Vitamins through your diet. Always eat a complete meal...but especially make sure it always has protein in it. 99% of those protien bars are loaded w/ sugar, back in the day i did like the pure protein bars I believe from worldwide. Like posted above try to have your post workout shake within a 1/2 window of training( try for the 4/1 like wildbillyt said) and like LS1 4Good said eat a full meal about an hour after your post workout shake. If you need anymore advice just pm me. I worked at Ultimate Fitness in Ocean for about 5 years and IFBB professional Rich Gaspari was my personal trainer and dietician when I use to bodybuild back in the day so i have a good bit of knowledge.

I am gonna grab a lot of eggs and some chicken when I go home this weekend. I will look into getting some rice too.

As for creatine, still have not decided what I wanna do with that aspect of lifting.

Question:

Do you know [redacted]?

Who is that?

Guy I know who is/was close with Gaspari

Ah ok.

What is your opinion on taking creatine Bill?

what and how you eat all depends on what your goals are.

Just a good enough diet so I have good recovery. I honestly just enjoy going to the gym and working out, its a nice break from things.

Yea I just did a search on him, looks like he competed in the 07 NPC...ive been outta the game for years so more then likely I dont know him...I was w/ rich in the early/mid 90's(when he tried to make his comeback).

Ok, got myself a lot of eggs, brown rice, some plain chicken breast and a lot of broccoli. Need to get some milk tmmr though.

Trying to eat a hearty breakfast and then some scattered meals throughout the day.

Next question, been talking with my brother, and I can't decide on whether to get back on a SP250 cycle with sizeon, or take Met Rx Xtreme Creatine Blast RT.

Thoughts?

sounds like good food. i mean u dont need to go over the edge with the health food moreless just watch what you eat..

as for the supplements..did u try going without them yet? that blood test got me scared ****less and u know the supplements that just came out, who knows what problems they can bring 15-20 years down the road

Yea, going on three weeks with nada. And you got a blood test while on cycle and after lifting.... granted I did too.. LOL but what did you expect?

yeah you are right..but still, i mean who knows what it can do later down the road

Dude, not to sound like a dick, but what brand of creatine doesnt make that much of a difference... just choose a price and flavor that fits you

Well I was more curious about the differences between the two.

i'd go with the size on, size on has useful other ingredients in it, whereas the metrx is 5grams of creatine mono with a whole ****load of sugar

Whatever works for you. I use the Met-Rx stuff because it was cheap enough and did the job.

Sorry for the continued dumb here... but what is the big difference between size on and the metRx stuff?

There is a big price difference.

Sizeon has a lot of proprietary **** in it. Met-Rx is creatine mono and dextrose.

Ok, so the Met-Rx is a cleaner chemical? If that makes sense..

no.. the metrx is

So I got some pre workout stuff, and will post up on how I like it when it gets here.

Any thoughts on stuff like jet fuel for cutting? Ron mentioned it to me, and I have been looking at it.

Cant go wrong w/ optimum nutrition supplements(ON)...Great quality and good price...leave u some bucks to get that boat anchor running right :nod:
