which type are u guys going for? just 'Impact Whey Protein'?

alrite mate - yeh Impact Whey Protein is the best valued one on there and most popular. You dont need the Isolate unless your lactose intolerant imo.

If you haven't registered before and order use MP108083 as a referal code and you will get 5% off. I will get some "points" but they are worth hardly anything.

Flavor wise I have used.....Chocolate Nut which is nice, Chocolate Smooth again is good, The Mocha and Latte flavors taste more or less the same and taste well nice if you mix it in a blender with Snake Hunter HD. Protein Starbucks!!

Look at their Instant Oats too as you mix the unflavored stuff with whey to make a quick meal. Its basically porridge oats ground to a fine powder to make it easier to mix.

Been off for two weeks just focusing on revising and such. After my exam tomorrow I'm back on the the gym wave hard. Tuesday is Chest and triceps day and I'm going in. Need to make up for lost time.

some cleverd*ck gone and wiped the mirror in front of my favourite rack, i hate mirrors in front of racks but this one was so filthy it no longer functioned as such, it had this one fleck of blood that i used to focus on when squatting, someone had either been squatting very hard or picking their bacne. it was their for months but now its gone. I missed it today.

[time_bomb]

purchased some oats and a few whey sample packs from myprotein, ill see what its saying then purchase a full bag.

How do you lot manage to stay disciplined especially you uni guys during your term breaks? I've been doing really well for the past 4 weeks, my diet has been on point but i have been working loads so it is easy to stick the routine. Day off today for a long while and i am catting hard for shitty food and drink, am yet to give in but have a proper urge.

[serpent]

Couldn't resist munching... Went and bought some super nutty Gronola cereal but also bought and ate two Nutrigain bars on for on the way back.. Feel like i have cheated a bit as i was trying to stay as carb free as possible but at least its not junk.

[JayB]

IIFYM ftw!! (google it) You can get youR protein, carb and fat intake from anything like chicken and rice to a box of chicken nuggets from McDonalds. People favour what they refer to as "clean" foods as they are not calorie dense so you can eat more of it.

You can lose weight and trim up eating McDonalds on a daily basis if you want. This dude is an example of that.

There is no "good" or "bad" foods. You see competing bodybuilders eating pop tarts and cereals etc nowadays.

Also google LeanGains by Martin Berkhan and see what people eat and still get shredded.

[Seymour Cake]

Also the guides and things people follow on the Internet and usually body builders guide. People who compete and body building is their life. If your like the majority of people who go gym for fitness, well being and to look and feel good then you don't have to be so militant on yourself. Obviously the more strict you are with diet the better, but your not gonna loose anything if you miss a meal, or pig out every now and again.

For me it's about balance. If I am constantly worrying about calories/protein etc 24/7, then I wouldn't even be happy.

Eating a general well balanced diet, going gym and executing correct exercises/lifts, resting properly = no reason why you shouldn't make gains.

other important thing is you have to enjoy your training. bare dons force themselves to go gym and hate it. find a something you enjoy 1st and then build from there. Otherwise you wont last very long.

/I've been ill all week and been clawing at the walls to get back in gym. Finally over the worst if it gonna bang some press ups and pullups 2moro. then hit gym on monday night to get back into di swing.

[time_bomb]

yea eat a diet of mcdonalds and pop tarts and die of a heart attack aged 50 with ur big muscles.

[Em Dott]

My return to gym was not good. Felt so weak. Monday I'm back on the ball.

You done the right thing by taking time off bro. Otherwise you would of been ill for longer.

I always get myself back into it by doing sets of pull ups a few days before too. Gets you pumped up eager to start lifting again.

[Guest chap44uns]

iam addicted to oats

very nice filler

[time_bomb]

tried the banoffee sample from myprotein, tastes pretty good, mixes well, and no stomach issues.

[serpent]

Ha, I'm not following a body builders routine as I don't want to get wedge.

I'm just wanting to maintain a healthy clean diet. Eating donalds yet still going gym isn't the one for me, if it works for you though that's kl.

I was just saying when I'm at work I have set times when I eat etc and am so busy that its easy to stick to a routine, days off when I'm just chilling at home I just wanna munch, not necessarily because I am hungry just out of boredom moretime.

[Guest M12]

I hate it when people say "i dont want to get wedge", like say you're going to do a couple bicep curls and wake up tommorrow looking like Arnie.

the cookies and creme and choc mint flavours are nice too, should try them

[serpent]

Its not like I'm new to gynming it, I know the cue. Not everyone goes gym to get big belive it or not.

Was only asking how you guys stick to a routine when you're either off of work or on term break from uni...

[time_bomb]

yes its true, i am someone who doesnt go gym to get big, i go for fitness and strength, my workouts are based on performing better in sport. I'll do half hour - 45 mins cardio before even touching a weight.

[djbmc]

do people have an arms day or do u do them at the same time as something else? i'm thinking about doing bis and tris one day a week, but i can't seem to fit them in without them still aching when it comes to working something like my back/chest.

[gattsu]

most people do tri's on chest day and bi's on back day
