Recovery after Brutal Workout--PRO ADVICE WELCOMED

[Manninen dude]

I will take in 100g of vitargo, 20g glutamine, 5g bcaa's and 60g wpi after a workout.

Dont waste your superior genetics. When it comes to _optimal_ post-exercise recovery supplementation, MyoZene is the way to go.

I use ETS a product from atlargenutrition. This has helped incredibly with getting lean and keeping size. I mean I am maybe 15 pound heavier this year and thats the only change I have made.

It is?

Great questions. I would think that the shorter your cycles and the longer your breaks, the safer, less risk you ar taking. Gh, I would say, no less than 3 months, but 6 is better. now, I have heard of this one guy, you guys might know him(his nickname is "The elephant"(LOL) He has gone as long as 1 year without stopping, in the past using low dosages, but recently higher. it is a bit of a risk, but I understand he just turned pro, so he wants to be the best he can be, and he has had no adverse side effects......... He does like 8ius of growth, and will go about 3-6 months on it.

Or so I have heaard about "The Elephant"..

How long had you been on the ETS?

so basically what your saying is screw the protein shake and eat real food instead. i agree, the protein makes me bloated and soft, i switched to solid food instead of a shake. even though im not getting as much protein as with a shake ive gotten harder, stronger, and had gains

[hangclean]

I have made the best strength gains of my life in the last year because I stopped taking a post workout shake.  I eat rice and eggs after I workout now and I think I will continue to do so.

[DK II]

i stopped taking protein shakes this year too and made decent gains.
i will add some aminos and creatine again soon.

but i really think that real food is a far better choice for PWN than shakes.

past= mohamad ali = natural recovery

present simple= ronaldo, kaka and zinadin zeedan:)= natural recovery with simple stimulations such as ephedra, caffeine

present progressive= lance armstong, 90% of baseball leage and 100% of boxers = moderate usage of hormones and other stimulating substances

and present perfect= priest bobbie heath dexjax ron,,and 90% of bodybuilders out there = heavy use of hormones combined with experiemental use of exotic substances for specific effect on specific muscles.

Monster imbalance on carb:protein ratio.

Who tells you to eat so little carbs and so much protein?

And why?

If these were the only supps he took, then there would be an imbalance...

it does... its called anabolic support. 
btw, when i started using dextrose, glutamine, whey, and creatine post-workout, I recovered much quicker and ultimately gained some size, approx. 20 lbs over the last 4 years.  So yes, it works. but you can get dextrose just about anywhere. 

The whole idea is to get some good carbs and protein in your system shortly after you complete your training. Whether that's done in solid or liquid form is solely up the the trainer himself. I've been doing that for years. Back in school, I'd consume a weight gain shake (Mega Mass 2000) about 30-45 minutes after finishing my workout, usually after a trip to the pool or jacuzzi. I started that after reading an article in IronMan ("The 7 Secrets to Gaining Mass", I think was the title).

The only difference between then and now is that I don't wait as long to guzzle down my post-workout drink and I take some creatine post-workout as well. The drink consist of CELL-TECH and whey protein, mixed together (if the whey is powdered), or I down an RTD, like IsoPure, about 20 minutes after finishing my CELL-TECH.

I'm pleased with the results. It's been working all this time and I see little reason to stop now.

Edit - The title of that article was "The Seven Sacred Rules for Packing on Muscle Weight You Should Never Break".

exactly, just be a fucking man and EAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What makes you think that folks aren't doing that? I usually have dinner with my wife and kids after I come home from the gym. But, this is AFTER I've consumed my post-workout drink(s).

[MCWAY]

The brutal geniuses in the supplement industry have you essentially buying a special kind of sugar (dextrose) for your postworkout drink, LOL!  I see many of you chug down the appropriate amount of whey isolate along with some glutamine (useless supplement folks) and perhaps even a special kind of creatine.   Unreal!  Let me ask you a question:  Are ya huge yet?  If not then why not run out and spend your hard earned money on some sugar, that'll get you huge in no time!  Don't want to miss that special "window of recovery"!  LOL!  The supplement industry OWNS so many of you, over and over again.  Odd how the most successful and massive bodybuilders of all time runs out to eat some chicken, rice, beans and cornbread after a workout and totally misses his "anabolic window of opportunity" since it takes several hours before the food is digested and yet he makes great gains.   His anabolic window must have an extension I suppose...

I thought this "anabolic window of opportunity" lasted 30-45 minutes. That would give Coleman plenty of time to hit his favorite restaurant and chow down. Of course, he has access to all those nice BSN supplements, which he can easily consume on his way to the Black-Eye Peas Restaurant.

Since he frequents the place often, odds are that Coleman pre-orders his food, which is waiting for him when he arrives.

The bottom line is this: Whether in solid or liquid form, post-workout nutrition is a MAJOR factor in stimulating growth. Get some nutrients in your body as soon as possible, end of story. Despite what some would like to believe, nobody is any more or less "hardcore", because of the method in which he chooses to get those nutrients into his body.

do you cook them together or separate?

I try to do it different every time.  I usually have five eggs (whole) and two cups of rice and I will put some green onion on it for flavor.  A little hot sauce doesnt hurt either.
