hey guys just wondering, when is it a good idea to take protein shakes? age wise?
i would want to take toning shakes not mass ones, but i think im still too young.
to be honest, its not like taking protein supplements will do you any harm. But as Gazzo says, its fairly pointless unless you are getting a bit serious and your ultimate priority needs to be setting up a good diet for yourself which is imperative and more important then any supplement.
P.S you could probably start doing a bit heavier weight SOON. Maybe not yet, but I started weights at 16 and started trying to build up my body with heavy weight at about 17.
Speaking of Nenna, I've taken a month of because of travelling and a few other things and I'm going getting back in the gym next week, any latest crazy shit you reccomend bro?
Yeah man long time no speak haven't seen you round these parts much. Same for Il Re. I'm all on my lonesome here.
To be honest I'm pretty much in your boat as of the last week (been very busy being a social butterfly etc.) but I've been doing a lot of cutting and cardio taking a weight loss supplement and eating fuck all carbohydrates while I'm not doing weights. I should be back on it tomorrow though.
I walked into my gym to say hello to some people and the thing a lot of people are doing right now is 5x5 workouts (5 sets of 5 reps) its turned into a massive fad. I really don't like the idea of it to be honest. Its more of a strength builder, I mean if 8 to 10 reps is the prime amount of reps for muscle building then why fuck with it? I'd only do it as a plateau buster and that would be a last option for me.
