| Under Construction Join Date: Sep 2004 Posts: 3 Rep Power: ![]() | sorry bout the double post but...... i Recently bought: Reflex Instant Whey 5lb tub and LA Muscle Creatine Pills Im quite a skinny guy and im looking to put on some muscle and burn off excess fat. I dont really eat alot during the day, sometimes nothing, so im currently going to drink a few of the protein drinks and take a few of the pills (2-3) during the day then workout after work, then when i get home i eat a big meal. Am i doing anything wrong here, do any of you have any advice for me to help me along? When i got to the gym i do about 20 minutes on the rowing machine or cross trainer and do free weights and alot of situps. Mostyle just free weights and situps and i try throw in a bit of cardio excercise. Any help would be much appreciated..... |

I smoke a joint a night about an hour before bed, I have to as I have been smoking for 15 years and can't sleep with out it (unless I have sleeping pills) so I use the lesser of 2 evils. I don't agree that it blights your muscle gains badly, I am currently 200lbs. It does increase your estrogen but not significatly (does depend on how much you smoke and which varitety of course). Skunk or nothing for me. ______________________ "Training is not a hobby but a way of life" "All of my advise is for role playing purposes only, I do not in anyway condone the use of steroids" | |

You need to eat if you want to grow mate, supplements are exacly what the name suggests, not a meal replacement. ______________________ "Training is not a hobby but a way of life" "All of my advise is for role playing purposes only, I do not in anyway condone the use of steroids" | |

I stopped about 4 years ago after using it for about 7 years constantly (about 1.5 oz a week). I have never looked back mate, it will suprise you how much it holds you back, I gained 2.5 stone when I stopped it. With regards to the sleep, put up with it as your body learns to get tired by itself after a while. If you are needing it to sleep its a problem. I save my smoking pure weed for 1 week a year in amsterdam only :twisted: . The other 51 weeks I am a saint.
