Need help with nutrition and protein
Hey everyone! I have been weight lifting and doing cardio for about 2months and I have lost about 20 lbs. I am 6'1 tall and i weight 265 at the moment. My goal is to mainly get in shape and hopefully have a lean mass of about 180. I enjoy weight lifting and I want to lift more weights but I seem to have problem increasing the weight ( i am just not strong enough ). My questions are as follow:
1) Should i take protein shakes? will it make me gain weight?
2) just concentrate in weight loss then try to build strength and muscle?
3) what kind of protein shake? good with skim milk or stick to water?
4) does protein shakes make me fat?
5) is it ideal to try to lose weight by weightlifting?
sorry guys i have too many questions and i cant find the answers for them...I'm just new a member and I have goals that i would like to accomplish. I would appreciate any help because your help can change my life forever. Thank you!
