    With the all the food im eating, dont see the need for whey, its ok if youre on the go and have no time to cook, ones that benefit are the ones that needs a quick protein meal with low volume or calories, creatine is a hit or miss for me, positive effect, strength gains is up 2 to 5% on major lifts and almost 50lbs difference on deadlifts, negative, its the water weight..i gain 5-7lbs on creatine..some people gain only 2lbs..well everybody is different..

    On creatine

    Yeur honor, you are using bad products. Too much impurities

    These are the best

    SFH Pure (available sa isang crossfit gym sa quezon city)



    Naked Whey (wala pa ako nakita sa pinas. So padala sa balibayan box)



    And ang whey protein eh use only after workout pag hindi pa agad makakain ng tunay na pagkain. So treat whey as a "crutch"

    Try this for your whey needs. Pretty sure you'll like the taste

    Skipping meal(s)? Our body needs protein every 3 hours so our muscles can have a steady stream of amino acids. When our body doesn't have enough amino, it will begin to eat away our muscles for fuel.

    I eat 6-7 times a day and i prepare my own food.
    3-4 pre work-out
    2 post-work out

    Pre- workout
    6 scrambled egg whites (no oil)
    Salt and pepper
    1/2 cup oatmeal

    Grilled chix breast
    Brocolli
    Spinach
    Brown rice

    Grilled fish
    Lettuce
    Cucumber
    Kamote

    Eat more to burn more.

    With all due respect, what science is this? Amino acid as fuel?
    AFAIK, our body uses glycogen as fuel first. If glycogen is depleted, liver converts fats into ketone bodies for fuel.

    No more glycogen and fats???- That is the time the body converts protein into glucose.

    I maybe wrong but it takes more than just 3 hrs of fasting for our body to turn to muscles for fuel.

    "Without sufficient energy, the body has the innate ability to break down muscle tissue for use as an energy source during heavy exercise. This process is known as gluconeogenesis, which is the production of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources. The part of the reaction is known as the glucose alanine cycle. During this cycle, BCAAs (three of the essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine) are stripped from the muscle tissue and parts of them are converted to the amino acid alanine, which is transported to the liver and converted to glucose.

    Branched-chained amino acids are metabolized directly in the muscle and can be converted into energy to prevent muscle catabolism."

    The operating phrase there is "Without sufficient energy".

    How long before we can say a body has "no sufficient energy"? Will a 3hour fast or missing breakfast deplete us of energy?

    If you read my previous post, I wrote the body has to deplete the glycogen stores first before turning into proteins for fuel.

    - depends on your metabolism, fitness level, activity, frequency, volume, intensity of training throughout each day-week, etc..

    - No Sir, but on experience(s) skipping meals and fasting gave me undesirable results, they are unsustainable practices, designed for short duration. The most successful way to be in great shape is to commit to a healthy eating and training. Skipping meals slows down my metabolism and prevents me from doing high reps/intensity training. I’m doing extreme dynamic training principle and shredding/fat loss protocol which requires me to be eating meal every 3 hours to encourage metabolism to burn fast and feed my muscles. It also pushes back cravings and makes for more steady energy levels. We all know the science behind it- the high protein content is going to help you retain your muscles rather than lose it. This is the most important part of your diet because you need to protect your muscle to get the shape that you want, protecting it against destructive metabolism or catabolism.

    A trainer once told me- anybody can train with a certain degree of intensity for 60 minutes or more but it takes a real mental strength consistently stick to a pre-planned diet day after day. The most important part of any transformation plan is consistency- stay consistent, all day, and every day.

    Today’s exercise- shoulder + triceps
    Rest one second per rep of each rep in drop sets (for example: in set 3 rest 10 seconds then 20 seconds)

    2. Seated lateral raise to standing lateral raise 4 sets 10, 10, 10/20, 10/20/10
    3. Rear cable crossover 4 sets 10, 10, 10/20, 10/20/10
    4. Dumbbell shrug 4 sets 10, 10, 10/20, 10/20/10
    5. Triceps rope extensions 10, 10, 10/20, 10/20/10
    6. reverse grip triceps pushdown 10, 10, 10/20, 10/20/10
    7. seated triceps extension 10, 10, 10/20, 10/20/10

    I dont disagree with you.
    Fasting is not for all. It will work some.

    I tried it and will try it again. It is just like missing breakfast anyway (16hrs fast). The effect on me is more mental. Having able to control the urge to eat.
