Fitness misconceptions
-
Some people think that weight-training is all about drinking 1000 protein shakes and trading solid food for protein drinks instead.How do i know?I keep seeing idiots put 4 whey protein servings into one drink and drink straightaway after their exercises without even eating carbohydrates to drive protein into muscle cells faster through insulin.

Vigorous excercises stresses and strains the heart.

layman keep thinking that weight-training is about how many protein shakes you down through your throat without even eating carbohydrates to replace those glycogen levels in their muscles.I hate those meat-heads who think everything is protein this and that.

Solid food should be your primary source of protein/carbohydrates not some bloody drink!I drink only 2 servings per workout day

They want to have big muscles fast and have no idea about the metabolism. Many guys think nonsense about fitness. One guy thought he gained muscle mass after 4 days in gym, got really excited when I tried to explaine him that's not possible. So I let him believe that nonsense, it has no sense to explain things to stubborn people.
The wanna be Rambos are a special species. Nothing against them, but soetimes they should train their brain too. -
Got muscle no brain?

insulin drives protein into muscles??? since when?
-
YES It does, i even asked a nutritionist

The same with people who think starving themself will make them thinner.
The truth is.... having 6 meals, instead of three will make them thinner. the portion of food divided into 6 instead of three. -
Like a friend of mine who took weight-loss pills in a bid to lose weight. He claimed that the pill will prevent carbs from being absorbed, causing him to lose weight.
He ended up being hungrier and eating even more. The only thing he lost was his money.
Bottom line... if you want to lose weight, just follow the tried and tested approach: regular exercise, and a healthy, well-balanced diet. -
close and ban

4 servings too much lah...4 servings is 80g of protein AT LEAST.....
in order for muscle to grow, protein is important but so is carbo. after workout u have 60 mins to pump in carbo and protein...after 60 mins u pump in the absorbtion not so good....so called window period lah.
its not how much protein u take at a go, its how much u take a day. for me, the ideal is 130g per day for max growth but i dun hit it anyway. it is important to drink 1, ONE serving of protein shake every now and then through out the day. u really need protein to grow and eat more carbo oso. multivits help too, it makes u eat better....
note that the regular whey u take is speedily absorbed one so dat explains why u need to spread out the servings out evenly as u dun want ur 'fuel' to run dry after 3 hrs. casein protein is more time-released but lower in bio-availability....so b4 u sleep its good to take a serving of casein or cottage cheese so during the 8 hrs ur 'fuel' is not totally 0.
afterworkout best is take weight gainers but not those which have high sugar content cos it will make u fat easily and u be a round ball of lard in no time. seen a guy, shorty, totally rounded....totally no cutting...see him go suntan i dunno wanna laugh or cry. yes, he has lats. yes he has pects but all covered in a layer of fat....dats fugly...totally ugly. -
woohohoho...we need more muscle to click the mouse..
