Bulking up with no protein shakes or something

[F l i c k e r]

Who cares man. If you want to bulk up just go buy the shakes. 100% whey protein powder. There is nothing wrong with it. It can do two things...

1. Bulk you up

2. Help aid in muscle recovery


So what is the downside? Pros use it all the time. There is nothing wrong with the stuff. Its just a more pure form of it. Bruce Lee even drank protein shakes. Albeit not from powder but never the less its a protein drink.

Milk I heard can cause pimples which many people add in their shakes...even Lactaid milk I guess. Friend uses Goats milk actually and has no problems. Says it is better for humans than milk. Human breast milk is even better if you can get a healthy women to give you that. A valiable hormone in Human breast milk. Milk is also said to be bad for people that do cardio so don't drink it before if you do. Positive affects after a workout though...although, who knows with studies and you always have to go by you.

Maybe Chocolate gives you pimples but I'm not positive. Whey is actually dairy so it could but it really depends on you. Everybody is different.

Fish; Chicken; Red Meat; Beans; Eggs; Pasta, but try Grain or Wheat unless you are allergic. Grain and Wheat has high protein, carbs, and Fiber and it digests slower than regular pasta so it shouldn't make you tired.

Protein Shakes are great. Best time to take them is before and after a workout. Maybe an hour before and then within an hour after or right after. Eat a little bit of Fat or Carbs with the shake because Protein needs one of them to make it sufficient. Olive Oil is always a great source of Fat as well as Nuts. There are a variety of grades/qualities but your best bet is Optimum Nutrition 100% whey. High Quality for the price and I never heard anything about it being a tainted product. It's pure Protein and nothing else added. I like it because it is light on the stomach compared to many foods, especially before a workout and right after when the body thrives on it. Fish is my next choice because again, it is light on the stomach. Followed by Chicken and Red Meat (but get a nice cut) and always eat fiber with it. Veggies as well. Drink Water.



*******Anything anybody says on these boards should only be a starting point. Do your own research as well and ask around.
Everybody is a bit different so keep that in mind.

Hello guys I just want to ask if there is a way to bulk up without using protein shakes or bodybuilding drinks? Cause im kinda shy when going to a store to buy those type of drinks cause im a little bit on the skinny side. My size is actually good but I want to bulk up more to look better. hahahahahahahahaha

You shouldn't be shy about buying there products, there is nothing embarrassing to it... you are only using there store to by some items they will be more than happy because they are earning more money. You shouldn't feel embarrassed about it mate, its your choice what you spend your money on at the end of the day... why does it matter on what they think.

being big and being strong rn't the same thing. if u wanna get big eat a high carb, high protein diet and lift lower weights/higher reps (i think, i always get the weight bit mixed up). if u wanna add lean muscle lift heavier weights/lower reps (like i said, it could be the other way around). functional strength is far more important than being big

If you're feeling nervous about being seen buying protein powders and that stuff, go for Egg Whites or Egg Beaters. I like to mix it 50/50 with smooth orange juice, or if I have it, Dole Pineapple Orange Banana juice. Just stir it with a spoon and you literally don't even taste a difference. Even drinking it plain doesn't taste bad, although it's an acquired taste.

Unfortunately, today I was out of OJ and I tried mixing it with g**** juice... tasted awful.
