Please help advise for the the best pre/post workout shakes/meals. Especially what have you guys found to be best practices with POST workout shakes? Should I add some carbs to my post workout shake? What is the best protein type for Post workout? Any help is appreciated, thanks and God Bless. | ||

Depends on your goals. What I have found to be an extraordinary shake has been 2 1/2 scoops Muscle provider in 16 oz apple juice diluted with 6 oz water and consumed pre, during, and finished after training. In five weeks I've gained 8.2 lbs and have remained relatively lean as I head into my first show early summer. For cutting and pre contest it's always been 2 1/2 scoops Muscle provider in water with no added carbs. Once I made the switch to this for pre-contest, I've never even considered doing anything else. What are your current stats and goals? This will give us a better idea. Aram N. Hamparian Pro Natural Bodybuilder | |||

My real goal is to lose fat while gaining (at worst maintaining muscle). I'm a former powerlifter with great genetics. I'm 5'9', 245 and all natural. Wanting to trim fat down to a very lean 215-220 range. I have been following a strict diet for the first time in my life, that I actually got off of a post on a Beverly forum, with awesome results. Also, do you include pre and post work out meals and shakes as part of the daily diet? Or do these not factor? I'm trying to figure out if I should eliminate some other meals due to these necessities, or just keep my diet the same.. I'm feeling awesome not really counting those (Pre/Post) and keeping my diet schedule the same daily... Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! Thanks. A | |||

Yes, I factor them in. It's very important to know what your macro's are, then construct your ratio's around them. On my non-lifting days, I simply eliminate the workout juice/Muscle provider shake to come to my non-lifting day numbers. So for arguments sake, my workout drink comes to 52 gram PRO, 66 grams CHO, 2.5 grams FAT,and 495 calories. Since I am not consuming this drink on non-lifting days, I am consuming 495 calories less than on lifting days. Aram N. Hamparian Pro Natural Bodybuilder | |||

Thanks so much for that advice. How can I get a better understanding of the macro break down that may work best for me? | |||

Faithforce, For supplement recommendations check out the homepage at www.bodybuildingworld.com and look for the Master Supplement Recommendations link. This area has some specific goals and the prioritized supplement listings to achieve them. For anyone wanting to lose fat, UMP, Lean Out and 7 Keto Musclean are all at the top of the list. You can also read more about each of the products by clicking on them in the Master Supplement Recommendations section. Directly above this link, you can see the Frequently Asked Questions link. This area contains the best nutrition plans for specific goals. I always recommend beginning with the Achieving a Fat to Muscle Transition for anyone who wants to lose fat while still building muscle. BI product consultants are available by telephone M-F 9am-5pm and able to answer any further questions. CR | |||
