Nitrotech

Oblivion02 · Mar 5, 2005

I had been taking Nitrotech, chocolate flavored. It tasted great, and I felt a great increase in energy and strentgh. The only thing I dont like about it is that it is too expensive for me... Im 15 and I have to be asking my parents to buy it

nitrotech is more hype than substance. muscletech also would add creatine to it, dont know if they still do.

you can find 5lb containers of whey online for roughly $25.00 from eas, optimum nutritrion, dymatize, designer whey, etc

MuscleTech-CellTech has creatine in it; might want to stay away from that too though. It has 300 cal and a lot of sugar too. Probably just an allergic reaction, but it also gave me a rash.

Im sticking away from shakes and stuff for a while since i read an article that those things havent been tried on young people(im 15) and that they could cause liver cancer, and some other stuff... So I will just stick to my multi vitamins, and cautious nutrition

abear · Mar 7, 2005

do you have a link to that? a protein shake causing liver cancer would be a good read

Oblivion, don't believe everything you read. Protein will not cause your kidneys to suddenly shrivel up and your body to shut down.

If you want a protein powder, do something simple like Bioplex, ON, or Dymatize.

What I was doing was eating foods with protein, like milk, meats, etc. How many grams of protein should I be taking daily?

abear · Mar 10, 2005

typical recommendations are from .8 to 1 gram per pound of bodyweight

yup depending on ur goals... and your workout reginmen...

Oblivion02 · Mar 10, 2005

And what types of food should I be eating to get a good amount of protein daily?

abear · Mar 10, 2005

eggs, milk, cottage cheese, yogurt, chicken, fish, lean red meat, turkey

Oblivion02 · Mar 13, 2005

I dont have access to cottage cheese since I have no idea what it is lol... But the rest of the stuff, im actually already eating... Whats the best food for after the workout? Something with Whey so it gets to my muscles fast...

abear · Mar 13, 2005

whey, milk, dextrose, maltodextrin, oats, fruit, even food like chicken and white rice or potatoes can and will do. whatever you can tolerate at that time.

i do whey and dextrose in water and eat a banana.

Oblivion02 · Mar 13, 2005

Well usually after my workout I have rice with anything else like chicken, maybe beans, egg, etc. With my food I drink water... Then afterwards I have a nice cold glass of milk... Does that sound good for after workout? Oh yeah, and I sometimes have rice with Tuna

abear · Mar 13, 2005

thats more than fine.

Cheese has alot of fat cals, but is high in calcium and has 7g of protein... Should I be eating this cheese? It has 50 fat cals... I think its called string cheese or sumthin... Taste pretty nice... Whut u guys think?
