Tell me, you did not just say that ... What does being a Noob got to do with Protein intake? :S

@hackboy89 : Get ON (Optimum Nutrition) 100% Gold Standard Whey Protein. If you are in NCR, get it from any Neulife retail store.

Guys!

I have been working out regularly at the gym. I'm slim and fit as such but under weight so I have been taking Serious Mass for last 4 weeks now to gain some weight. I would like to now switch to Whey supplement. Hows ON Whey 100%? I'm working out everyday for 2 hrs at the gym for last 2-3 months now.

Taking any supplement or working out 2 hours a day will contribute nothing to your mass gain if you are not eating in calorie excess. Find your daily maintenance and start eating atleast 500-1000 calories above maintenance daily. Also, if you are lifting weights daily for 2 hours, you are most certainly over training yourself which would be counter productive and you may end up losing muscle mass than gaining any. Giving proper rest to muscles is important for recovery.
 
Re: The Fitness Thread !

Let me rephrase that....if you are a noob, you dont need to spend 5-7k on a tub of whey isolate hoping it will buff you up, instead fix your diet and start working out first...once you start strength training, then start suppliments
 
Re: The Fitness Thread !

What's the expiry like, for Protein shakes after the tub has been opened?

I have a half a tub of Dymatize Elite which I haven't used since almost an year.Guess I have to throw it away.
 
Re: The Fitness Thread !

Just a bit of information about whey - Couple of days back i finished my box of MuscleTech NitroTech Whey Concentrate, I then bought a pack of British Nutrition Whey Isolate.

Firstly, MuscleTech Whey works, I can see the results with my 4-5 days a week workout and ofcourse I followed a strict diet with 1 cheat day per week. No aerated drinks whatsoever, a couple of 650ml beers/week.
Secondly, I obviously don't know how effective is British Nutrition Whey isolate since it has only been two days but it is way easier to mix this with water than it was for nitro-tech. It is considerably cheaper than MuscleTech since the former is an Indian brand imo and the latter is American thus imported. Plus it is more widely available than any other brand at retail stores in Hyd.

Another thing, an advice for people who are trying to lose weight. Stop paying so much attention to Whey, if you are taking it, it is cool. But it is not going to do any magic for you if you are not putting in the physical effort. Sweat it out at the gym, go for a run on the road, that's how I lost 20 Kgs in the last six months
 
Re: The Fitness Thread !

Should i continue with Serious Mass or switch to Whey Protein? I'm trying my best to have a good diet but living alone is kinda hard. I'm still 3Kg underweight :/

If Whey then which one should i take?

hey, for how long have been taking muscletech? I am confused between ultimate nutrition, ON, Nitrotech & Elite. Which one is good? My objective is to develop lean muscle mass with moderate bulk n good definition.
 
Re: The Fitness Thread !

I have had both ON and Muscle-tech. What I have found is that the results with Muscletech come faster but they are not as everlasting as ON. Muscletech is also way thicker than ON which I personally do not like. You cannot go wrong with either of them.
 
Re: The Fitness Thread !

As Bluffmaster suggested go for ON if its available in your city, I personally haven't had it but maximum people suggest ON over anything else. However if its not available go for MT NitroTech, had it for a couple of months approx with good results. Will give some feedback on British Nutrition after 45 days or so.

Re: The Fitness Thread !

need some quick tips guys:

i'm 25years old and 5ft 10 inches tall and weigh 86kgs; i was always plumpy but oflate i have become very fat and the fat seems to have concetrated in the stomach/waist region. my waistline is now 38 and i want to reduce it so can you suggest which is best?

to join gym or buy a treadmill and do some mild exercise at home only?

oh, just so that you know, my day begins @ 8 and I head out to office @ 9 in the morn and return @ 9-30 or 10 at night and i travel by bike and sit in front of some old pc the whole time in offfice...so there is no physical activity at all :(

also i don;t want to build a body or anything...all i care for is to reduce the fat around the belly :P
 
Re: The Fitness Thread !

Any reviews abt venky's & british nutrition, its cheap & one of my client recommends if u have tight budget.
 
Re: The Fitness Thread !

As mentioned a few dozen times in the thread
You cannot spot reduce belly fat or boob fat or butt fat
If you loose fat, it will b e from all over the body
How to loose fat? Reduce the calories you eat

if calories eaten>calories burned then you gain wt
if calories eaten<calories burned then you loose wt
don't think going to the gym few hours a day is going to increase burned number a lot....you are going to have to decrease input

The schedule is one you made for yourself, if you want more time you have to change it yourself

*********
the gym is to get fit
the kitchen is to get slim

Re: The Fitness Thread !

I went through the thread and found that most of the people have queries with weight loss .

I am looking for some serious help for Weight Gain ( Actually Muscle Gain ) .

Have been working out for 1.5yrs ( Now on a break since 10months ) and all my gained weight has gone back to where it was . I surely did mistakes that time as I was a noob that time . ( Although i Still consider myself a noob ) . It would be really helpful if someone out of this thread , who is actually active in BB and have known the secrets to weight gain , what technique to follow , how much to workout , how much to rest , what part to workout on what day , Diet , supplementation etc etc , can pls help me .

Anyone out here who has gone from Skinny to Massive ??

Compound exercises and GOMAD for skinny to massive. Period.
