Re: Workout Enhancers
 
I agree with what BD is saying to an extent. If your looking to burn fat while getting big muscles the best way is obviously to light. You still need cardio but, growing more muscle will bump up your resting metabolism meaning you burn more just by sleeping. I'd say mix in about half cardio and half lifting. Use a variety of lifting strategy. Highrep low weight to start off. But, you also want to lift some heavy weights in order to stimulate different muscle fibers to induce growth. Don't try using any magic pills just yet. If you take the basics and do hard work you'll burn fat in no time. A few supps i'd suggest:

Multi-vitamin
Protein powder (don't consume too much, but eat this instead of a fat hamburger)
L-glutamine (very important for quick recovery and to prevent muscle breakdown after your cardio, try to get L- seeing as it's the natural form of glutamine)

^^ The basics

If you want a kick start with your fat burning try some green tea extract or HCA (hydroxycitric acid).

If your new to working out alot, the weight will come off fast because you're basically gonna suprise your body. Good luck.

In my case Dexedrine, and it acts like a mild sedative with no effect on my appetite.

I usually eat once a day around 1 or 2pm. I dont eat so much I feel sick or anything. Just enough to feel good. Like a footlong sub and a drink. I've been working out for years, but never really did it in combination with a diet. I weighed 175 all through high school, and now I'm up to 200. I do not want to get over 200. Looks lik eI'll be throwin some more cardio into my workouts. Thanks for the info and suggestions guys!

JD- you lucky bastard.

You've seen the down side of it, Chris, I distinctly remember being incoherent in your car at least once due to lack of food.

I think you should just do a lot of steroids and become a totally ripped pissed off ----------er with a mohawk. :y
