Good nutrition will do a lot for your gaining muscle/losing fat. There are a lot of good posts here, look through and see what you can find. Good luck and congratulations on having a spouse who likes to work out with you! Hurray for both of you! -------------- Challenge + Consistency = Results

Save your money, make smart diet choices. You will go much farther than with any supps, despite the salse hype on them. By the way, welcome to you and your wife. My wife and I work out together too. Nice to have you with us here on FT. -------------- Great people never want it easier, they just want to be better! Ron

My husband and I have made great gains since working out together. Both physical and mental. -------------- ~Victoria~ ...There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.--Beverly Sills
