so who all works out in here?
Ok, I was wondering how many people work out in here.. If you do or have in the past what is / was your eating habits, work out schedules, etc. The
reason that I ask is because I plan on getting a membership with Bally's Total Fitness (I get a discounted rate through my job there) in the next
month or so and start working out again. I havent done this religiously since I was in the Marine Corps and want to put on some more muscle mass, more
weight (I currently weight in at like 145 / 150 round there and want to be bigger)... I also have a high metabolism and work overnights at Home Depot
stockng freight and what not..... So here's some questions
1) do you or have ever used any of the workout formulated stuff like weight gainer, aminos, etc. and what are the best to use
2) what is your work out regiment / schedule?
anything that you think that would be beneficial would be awesome and appreciated

I work out regularly through the PT programs at my various commands, it's alot of cardio with building on my own time really. As far as eating, I eat
alot of veggies, but drink alot of beer, so it cancels each other out

I work out religously 5 days a week. I use NO-Xplode before any workout (not just weights but running and hockey). If you are looking for added
gains increase your protien intake. Try for 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. Do it smart. Don't just eat for the sake of eating. Stay
away from white rice and white bread. Eat more whole wheat/grains, vegetables and lean protein. Baked Chicken. Fully thaw chicken breast add spices
like Mrs. Dash and bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Also increase your calcium intake. Good luck!

thanks for all of the help people PLEASE keep them coming as I am trying my damndest on this. I currently smoke but am trying to quit not only for
health reasons but to save money in the long run... when you smoke a pack a day and the cheapest that I get smokes is $2.91 a pack and then with gas
being anywhere from $2.58 - $3 a gallon here places a huge hurting on your wallet....
The problem with baking is I dont own an oven only have a range stove and a microwave. Is there a website that I can check out to tell me some good
recipes and stuff? What are some good protein drinks and foods that I can take to help out. I currently weigh in at like 143 and basically live
paycheck to paycheck. But I am trying though. What is wrong with white rice though... I know that I need to eat more rice though being that my
girlfriend is 100% Filipino, her parents being nationalized citizens from the Philipines, and she ALWAYS eats rice with like every meal.... Jason I
will remember what you said about ramen and peanut butter... I remember when I was a state and nationally ranked wrestler when I was in high school I
always ate Peanut Butter when I needed to put on weight the day of a match weigh in....

Hey Paul, whats up? Check it out, I have been working out pretty heavy, and here's what's been working for me. I eat about 1000 calories more a day
than I used to, but cut out alot of the fat so it works out. I eat tuna fish like 3 times a day (lots of protein and cheap). I use a protein
supplement (mass builder by twinlab) after I work out and NO-XPLODE before workouts. Also, make sure that you get at least 8 hours of sleep because
muscle rebuilds itself the most while you are sleeping. Good luck!!
I just can\'t seem to STAND STILL

awesome thanks man.... I know that I dont get the sleep that I should be getting because I work 40 hours a week at Home Depot overnights stocking
freight so I get a pretty good work out with that job and am looking for a 2nd job as well and if I go with this one werehouse job I will be working
40 hours a week with them as well so I will be droppin sleep to make up for money problems and all .... but I am hell bent on getting a good work out
and starting to eat better and all that jazz....
are there websites about nutrition that I can visit... Maybe I should take a Nutrition class when I go back to school in January to better help me...
where can I get this NO-XPLODE at and how much does it cost?..... also I currently have "Optimum Nutrition's PRE-LOAD CREATINE COMPLEX" is this stuff
any good or should I throw it away? thanks dude

THERE'S my problem! I average for or five a night. Makes me weak AND fat.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Smoking and Drinking are very counter productive to what you want to do. I know it sucks. I smoked for 12 years but since stopping cold turkey, I
would never go back. I also stopped drinking for 6 months this year. That was another great decision. Now I'm back to drinking but need to hang it
up again.

I've been working out for years. The only supplement I've ever taken was amino acids. Eat lots of protein and food rich in amino acids, the aminos are
what breaks down the protein into "muscle food". Tuna is always good. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches can make a big difference if you just add a
couple to whatever you already eat daily. I never work out without having a cup of Tim's (coffee) and a Wunderbar about five minute prior. Splitting
your workout (day/night) is effective as well. I'm not sure how effective this is but it gives you a wicked burn if you do a push/pull workout
(chest/back, biceps/triceps, etc.) And always throw in light weight/ high rep workout once a week. It keeps your muscles guessing and forces them to
grow. Finally, work tour quads heavy. They are the largest muscle in your body and when they grow they make everything grow.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

should I just get with a personal trainer on this to better to me the right eating patterns, sleep patterns and work out schedule to gain muscle and
put on weight as well.... I will be getting a membership to Bally's so I believe that they have them along with cardio stuff like Tae Bo and aerobics
and swimming pools
