Hi to everybody. This is my first post. Great site with lots to absorb and I think it may take a while for me to get my bearings. I am 42 and have been working out pretty steady for a year now (3-5 times a week) with some results...waist down to 32 from 36, gained some muscle and have pretty much kept the same weight of 165-169 since I started. Looking to move to the next step, get rid of that last fat (around the middle and still fighting to get definition) and trying to keep or increase muscle. Started NXLabs Methyl Ripped 3 days ago. Taking BSN Cellmass after workout at 6:30 am and around 7 pm, and about 15 ozs of protein shakes throughout the day. I've read through many of these posts and still don't know if I'm headed in the right direction. Any advice or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I'm a little shocked. From what I've been reading here, I thought supplements were spposed to invoke some sort of emotional response.
C'mon, somebody help me out here. Was I supposed to pay a membership fee I didn't notice?

What's your diet look like ?

Personally I like Cellmass, lot's of people dont like to pay the high price but I get it cheap and it works for me. I use it only on training days pre and post.

Why dont you post your diet, and training regement, then we can help asses what you need to do to take it to the next step.

Cellmass is pretty good and has worked well for me. I have not tried the Ripped supplement before, but like Talo and Hrdgain81 have mentioned post your diet and routine and we will be better able to give targeted advice. Good luck on meeting your goals and while membership dues are not required donations of beer are accepted

Cardio sucks

Been lifting weghts at gym for about a year with no set weight program. Used trainer offered by the gym (at a price of course) at first but could not see any direction of any kind - just had me moving from 1 piece of equipment to another, so have been wandering aimlessly for the most part of that year wih some results.
Just now focusing on muscle groups...Day 1:up at 5am,- take Methyl Riped, work on chest, home at 6:30 with scoop of cellmass, protein shake 30 minutes later, breakfast at office (banana, yogurt, oatmeal), protein shake and granola bar mid morn. Methyl Ripped 6 hours after first dose. Whatever I can get my hands on at lunch (burgers-no fries, salads with chicken etc), protein shake in afternoon, scoop of cellmas when I get home at 6:30pm, a standard meat, veg dinner with family around 8 pm.
Day 2 will be same but work on arms. Day 3 shoulders. Day 4 legs.
All days with 30-40 min of cadio afterwards.
I've just recently convinced my wife to keep the crap out of the house so that meals are healthier but its been an uphill battle.
This obviously is going to take some research. This site has offered me the most direction yet but I'm trying to make sense of it all and figure out how all this information can apply to my situation.
Thanks for the reply.

I haven't been to San Antonio in 2 1/2 years but will make sure I don't forget the suggestion next time I'm there.

Look into a starting strength program or something like that. With a program you wont be "wandering aimlessly" like alot of people at the gym. It will be good to have set goals...reps, weight etc. 30-40 min of cardio right after lifting is not so reccommended. Your muscles are starving for nutrients and recovering at this point and the cardio will be killing that. Do it on your off days. It looks like you lack alot in the "real food" department to. Try get in another meal or two of good clean protein and complex carbs. Shakes are good pre and post workout, but other than that nothing can replace real food!

The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.
