I know it has been one day but was curious as to when some visual improvement is seen. It is big motivation to see your hard work paying so wanted to know.

You can see a difference in as little as 2 weeks or as many as 5 weeks. Remember: your diet has as much (or more) to do with it than your training routine. -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!" "Pain is only weakness leaving the body."

I've been concentrating mostly on my upper body because I've never really had much problem with the lower half. I've started to see little things, like my shirt sleeves getting a bit tighter and a little more movement in my chest when I flex. That's a great incentive to keep pushing.

But, I've been paying strict attention to my diet, weight training program, and cardio program. For the fastest and safest results, you should do the same. There are no reliable shortcuts, or quick fixes.

If not, and your experienced with training you may never see gains depending on your exercise selection and your diet. Also make sure your workout benefits you and not someone in a magazine, the most important goals are yours and nobody else!
amitpat Posts: 19 Joined: 2002/03/19	2002/03/27, 02:26 PM Thanks a lot guys. I am also paying attention to diet. I had just one question. Say I finish my exercise at 6.30 pm when is the best time to have Protein Shake after that.
