You didn't increase because your legs were not recovered from squats on Saturday.

Put 3 plates on that b1tch next time and pull it.

Damn dude - good eating!

Back workout looked good and cable crossovers are fine. Pushdowns are fine also - do slow negatives on the way up (5-6 seconds).

Why don't you get yourself some whey + carbs PWO and save the Muscle Milk for bed time?

You don't know why you're using Muscle Milk? Niiice

I think you'll get better results using whey protein + carbs PWO and the MM @ night you know?

A 5lb. tub of whey protein has like 60 or 70 servingsi n it and it shouldn't cost more than 27 bucks...think about it

I never said idk why im using muscle milk...im using it because of the calories in it! it has way more than any other protein...im trying to bulk so im just using that because of the load of cals. but i might switch if i dont see good results from this.

tampabay3990 · #74 (**permalink**) 06-21-2006, 08:32 PM

8:30-woke up

1:00- 4 egg whites and 1 yolk, 2 peices of toast

2:00- 1 pack of tuna and 5g of creatine

4:00- serving of muscle milk

6:30- Large Sub Sandwich (atleast 800 calories)

9:00- 8 oz of grilled chicken breast

10:45- 1/2 serving of muscle milk

That's the wonder of MM. It's a multipurpose protein blend.

You're not gonna see the results from the Muscle Milk really, it's gonna all come down from your diet. I honestly think you don't need to switch anything. My point is that if you're going to use a supplement, you shold use it to gain the most out of it.

Muscle Milk isn't exactly optimal as a PWO shake ESPECIALLY if you're bulking. What's the point of wasting a serving of Muscle Milk in water when you can be using it in milk for more calories if you just take it at nite? I hope you're not taking the MM in milk after workout because that would be a waste of a good supplement.

For PWO= whey + carbs + water/Gatorade
(In your case) Bulking powder = Muscle Milk

I know jlozan has been sticking w/ you this whole time and I'm almost positive he'll agree with me

Thanks but I can't help but get the feeling that you're being sarcastic

Hey don't thank me, thank yourself

What are you planning on taking the whey with PWO?

I used to take it with Gatorade and throw some glutamine into the mix also. Try and get your PWO shake in no more than 15 min. after your workout to keep that anabolic window open!

How much ON whey did you get for $29?

I don't know what flavor you like but i have 2-10 lb. bags of ON whey if you're interested when you're done with the tub you just bought.

PM me if you like
