tumpang thread abit..

regarding eating egg white..do u guys remove the yellow part of the egg..or is there a special egg which only has egg white?

Eat egg yolk also. If not you are wasting all the other nutrients, as the egg yolk only has them. The egg white consists only of protein and water, and the yolk has the same amount of protein. Regarding cholesterol rumors, it ain't true. Go search online for more info on this.

Finally free to post... I went gym workout 4days in a row for the first time.

Monday - Back and Triceps
Tuesday - Shoulder
Wednesday - Legs
Thursday - Chest
and everyday abs...

Didnt do much each days.. around 1h plus only.
Been eating a lot too.. but because of tired and lazy, miss supper most of the time.
I see slight improvement on my body.. chest growing like 3D object. Haha.

Good!!!! 4 days in a row!! Keep it up!
btw, you should train back and biceps and not back and triceps:). triceps should go with chest...ur abs needs to rest too!

Thanks for the advice. I need to wake up earlier to reach gym early to have more time workout next time. Going back to home now to have a rest.

Added on November 26, 2008, 10:11 pmFinally, I come back to my old thread.
History, I start working out from May, and my last post on July.
Throughout the time, been busy working, but still working out at gym although not constant.
Very sad that I still the same size, same weight after 6 months.
Is it really genetics as my family members are thin?
Is it got worms in my stomach? (I drink vitagen and yakult regularly)
I desperately wanna gain weight and muscle mass.

Please give advice on my diet and workout.

Diet
Breakfast
1 glass of mix fruit juice
4 tablespoon oat + milo
2 slices of bread with tuna
2 eggs

Lunch
Typically normal lunch like chicken rice, kuey teow soup, etc..

Pre Workout
2 slices of bread with tuna
1 scoop ON's whey protein

Post Workout
1 scoop ON's whey protein

Dinner
Home dinner, typically rice with meat, vege, beancurd and eggs.

Post Dinner
1 scoop ON's whey protein

Workout

Wednesday - Back, Should and Biceps

I always try to push to my limit, which I hardly can finish my third set.

hi, wat about ur workout content?
why are u having post dinner? i think that u are wasting ur protein in ur pre w/out and post dinner

Was trying to have more protein in every meal.

I don't think you need protein for pre-workout instead of BCAA. But I don't see any problem for consuming whey protein for post dinner (assuming it's 4 hour after your dinner)

Any recommendation for pre-workout and post-dinner? Really wanna gain weight and size now.

Hmm....perhaps the cheapest dextrose could help you? Take for pre and post workout, your energy will increase a lot, but it's not recommended for fat loss people due to dextrose have high GI and will create insulin spike = store fat if it's not well used. I usually take a shake of protein for post dinner = pre-bed.

So how much gram whey protein powder u use on this workout day total? How much whey protein u eat on non workout days? U look rich since u eat so many times

Ur breakfast the tuna, protein how many g? At least around 100g. My advice, ur lunch chicken rice probably less than 100g meat, protein, so u can preprepared, cook at home b4 ur work some more, hire maid cook 4u, or sth and ur post dinner whey u can try eat 1st thing in the morning u know.

And why dun u buy even cheaper whey so u can eat even more.

Hmm.. I dont understand why you said I look rich for eating so many times. I thought it's correct we should spilt our meal to around 5 times a day.
My breakfast tuna, one serving is around 20g protein I guess, what do you mean around 100g? 100g protein per meal or per day? It sounds more logical if per day.
So, you're suggesting take whey protein first thing in the morning?
Btw, your last statement I really cannot understand, sorry for that.

I got a friend who successfully gain weight and muscle in half year time. He was a diver and go gym 2 days a week only.
He advised me to take 4 scoops of ON's whey protein, cause that's what he did.

By the way, I still looking forward to add and improve my diet. Thanks.

Ya it sounds more logical to me if its 100g protein, but I mean 100g meat per meal, not 100g protein.

Do u know there're even cheaper whey out there?

I choose ON's whey protein cause it's recommended from most people and it taste good also. So, enlighten me if there're cheaper or better whey out there.

Holla Kelv,

Having the same problem as u. Hard to gain weight despite the diet. Anyway
Scivation 10lbs is RM300 cheap good quality whey. U can also buy whey from 4rings 6.6lbs for RM180, i never tried it.

I think we should not rely much on whey, better increase consumption on real foods like eggs. DO u take multivits? I am adding multivits soon to my diet..

I didnt take any multivitamins. It helps? It's rather expensive right?
I just bought some extra BSN protein, the Lean dessert to be taken before sleep and between meals.

My latest diet..

Diet
Breakfast
1 glass of mix fruit juice
4 tablespoon oat + milo
2 slices of bread with tuna(if no tuna, will be kaya and butter)
2 eggs
+ 1 scoop ON's Whey(24g protein)

Lunch
Typically normal lunch like chicken rice, kuey teow soup, etc..
+1 scoop BSN Lean dessert(20g protein)

Pre Workout
2 slices of bread with tuna
1 scoop ON's whey (24g protein)
+4 tablespoon oat + milo, again..

Post Workout
1 scoop ON's whey (24g protein)

Dinner
Home dinner, typically rice with meat, vege, beancurd and eggs.

Before sleep
+1 scoop BSN Lean dessert(20g protein)

I am thinking of shifting the whey protein for preworkout to be taken double scoop after workout.
And also adding eggs somewhere between meals.

Hey, anyone consider animal pak ? It looks like very complete, more ingredients than the vits i see sold at pharmacy.

Definitely true, but I think the price is too skyrocketing.

That's the ultimate vitamin pack right there. Well I suppose different people have different budget.
UN daily formula multivits is only RM30, can last for 3 months for one bottle btw. Couple that with craetine mono and bcaa..

Well, if only RM30 for 3months, I surely will give it a shot. I can get it at any pharmacy? What's the full name for it?
Now in desperate mood that I'm whackin whatever food and nutrient that I can afford.
GNC got buy 1 free 1 promo, and I'm considering should I buy BSN True Mass or ON's Pro Gainer.
So envy people trying to lose weight, while I trying so hard to gain mass.
Nvm... eat eat workout workout rest rest all the way!!
