hi guys, im just started working out. im 22, 171cm and 202.5lb (yes, im overweight )

i wan to slim down as much as i can and at the same time build some lean muscle and was doing some research on which protein to take. GNC is overprice so its not my choice, and i did some research comparing ON 100% and MyoFusion elite. Most ppl recommend MyoFusion cause its better, cheaper and tastier.

so my question is, will taking protein help achieving my goal? or should i just go workout without taking any protein? i got a workout journal at the member journal thread, my routine is inside there and today is my first day.

oh and MyoFusion contain whey protein isolate so i think it can hlp wit my fat loss also.

You can start working out without protein 1st.

Once you get serious, then only start using supplements.

Sometimes, you might get demotivated and waste your money somewhat..

And protein is just protein. Get the one that you like pretty much

I'm on Syntha-6 purely for its taste

ic, coz i din workout much and suddenly start working out and now my body hurts from just now workout so i thought i might get protein to hlp recovery as well.

recovery?

That's a diff category no?

Rest more for beginners would be better.

That's what I do. But then again, if you workout and your muscles did not feel sore, that's not really a workout

well, it does hlp recovery n improve endurance though.
yeah my chest is feeling really sore right now.
oh ya, if u free, could u hlp checkout my workout routine in my workout journal n giv some opinion? kinda noob to workout, nt sure doing it right or wrong

Haha.

I'm also starting to recently train. Could not give much opinion as everyone has different training method.

For recovery, you can get some protein meant for recovery if you need it.

Generally, Supplements are taken if you are going to go full swing for some time

haha, alright thanks. will do 1~2 week and if not demotivated, will get supplement to help out next month.

Don't get demotivated

Based on your workout journal, you're doing some quite heavy work for a person that don't exercise much.

Let your body adapt to the change 1st before you start supplementing yourself.

Just my opinion.

There are other doctors here that could help you definitely

ok, will try adjust my routine a bit if i cant take it or mayb will take it slow. hope to achieve my goal this year.

Sidenote - Don't expect to get so much result for a short period of time. It's a lifestyle.

ok, thx~
will wait for other ppl to come giv some advise

he already answer ur question, so even other give advise also same. just go train hard, eat well and rest. without protein u sure able achieve ur goal

Well, believe it or not?
With proteins actually helps you cut down weight/burn fats faster.. But most importantly is "EAT CLEAN".

Here comes the "eat clean" statement again?

Define eating clean?

In b4 washing your foods with water....

i just order myofusion 2 days ago, and wow they still havent ship it out...=.=
wat is eat clean?

Avoid Fried foods, sweet drinks, junk foods unhealthy fat etc etc. . Make your calories count.
