(for the 1st question, I have searched GetBig forum and found some infos but still cannot answer my question)
1. there are some posts talk about we
DO have a
LIMIT on the amount of
protein we can adsorb by our body
per mealand I've found infos about the process our body DIGEST protein, it needs enzyme to digest the protein and turn it into the essential and non-essential amino acids
so, based on some words from friends before(should be quite a many years ago), I've heard if we can increase the "protein digesting enzyme" in our body(should be stomach), then we can absorb more amino acid from food/drink (and avoid it's oxidation into things that give us energy)
is it true?
2. if I am having amino acid drink, when should I drink it?
before meal or after meal?
and also, my main source of protein(as least I think in this way) is milk
and u know when milk mixed with acidic liquid, the milk will become solidified.....
I ask this no.2 question is only because I know milk will solidify....
and I don't think I can have amino acid drink and then have milk immediately after that....
what should I do?
actually there's another reason for me to take amino acid supplement(absolutely not pills, as my mom will be quite nervous about it if she knows I am taking pills....)
I know that that amino acid drink I am having do have the BCAAs that can prevent "catabolism"(is it correctly spelled?)
coz.....my right bicep is smaller than my left bicep now(
)
no, I am not guys using left hands, I use my right hand to write(not a leftist)
my right bicep should be bigger than my left bicep before(but I can't make sure on it, as I haven't checked it always,
but I am really sure that they are at least of the same size, but not like now left bicep is bigger than right bicep)
I guess this would be the outcome of catabolism
I really want to avoid catabolism that it "melts" my muscles away.....
my profile is : I have been doing weight exercise for a month
I strictly obey the rules for weight exercise that never train same muscle daily
I only train one muscle after a day's rest(e.g. Monday train, Tue rest, Wed train again...)
and I am also doing weight loss exercise now(e.g. biking in gym, cross trainer, no outdoor activities)
the time for each day is 30-40 mins at least, about once a week there would be 1 day I'll do it for more than a hour(usually only once)
and YES, I DO do cardio everyday, but the average is only 30-40 mins
my weight loss target is : I am 5'5" and 143 lbs now(was 160 lbs around 2 months ago
)
my most wanted target is....slim my belly
it is still 33" now (it was 36"
)
my plan was 3-4 lbs drop at least per week, but now it seems....
oh.....hopeless
so anyone can help me?
oh yes, I have to add 1 point, that most of my body fat
is not "lost" after I go into the gym
I only start it 1 month ago
but the "160 lbs to 150 lbs" period is before that
I was running in outdoor sports ground then, keep on running in the morning(1 hour) and in the evening(1 hour), that is around at least 2 hour daily
and yes, I have to mention I am on a diet now(I start from 2 months ago)
my diet is low carbs diet
so after my gym my food will be only vegetables(only the leaves, never eat something like carrots, coz I know that these would have carbs)
but I have stopped this sort of meal after my gym, coz I do guess it would be one possible reason for my catabolism
anyway, thx for patience for reading my post
