Order? Workout - Supplements - Cardio

blnussbaum Posts: 5 Joined: 2004/04/21	2004/05/26, 02:03 AM I was wondering what order these go. Right now I eat tuna and a banana before working out. Then lift real heavy and take a weight gainer as soon as I am finished. Then I go outside and run. Is this the right order? I want to gain muscle mass but still have a little flab around my gut and lovehandles that I want to get rid of. The rest of me is not fat at all.

I had really good results in the beginning, now it's kinda slow, but that is to be expected. I run before I take my protein shake though. I don't know if it makes much difference, but I usually feel really full after my shake, and a bunch of water. -------------- Spark the fire that will torch the numbness inside.

Sorry....the weight gainer post workout is not ideal usually anyway. You want simply simple sugars and pure whey isolate or hydrolosate or combo of both. Most weight gainers have tons of other stuff in them to jack the calories up, that are counterproductive to post training scenario. You want no casien for instance, no fats, no fructose, and no unwanted carb fillers. ============ Quoting from blnussbaum: I was wondering what order these go.

bb1fit Posts: 11,105 Joined: 2001/06/30	2004/05/29, 01:16 PM Use 38 gr. protein, 38 gr. of evenly mixed dextrose and maltodextrin. In other words, 19 gr. each. 3.3 tbsp. of malto, 1.3 tbsp. dextrose. This is at your stated weight of 155, and for cutting(losing bodyfat). You will not be able to lose your love handles and add mass simultaneously. It is at best very, very difficult. Better to pick one and go with it. ============ Quoting from blnussbaum: It's not like I'm fat. I said just a little. The rest of my needs to bulk up.
