Ratsun: Health/Fitness

[I'm BLUE]

Ok Ratsun ,,,

 

Long Story Short ,,,I use to lift when younger ,,, stopped along the way ,,, got unhealthy ,,,, Changed my lifestyle about a year ago ,,, Eating Much Healthier ,,, Drinking LOTS of water , Taking Vitamins A,B,C,D , Omega fish Oils ,,, lots of protein (different sources including powder) ,,, Cut Alcohol Completely , Cut Caffeine down significantly

 

I do Cardio Exercising for ((( 30 minutes - 1 hour ))) daily ,,, ( Running(not much)/Jogging/Swimming of that like ,,, )

 

I Lift Weights Every Other Day for ((( 30 minutes - 1 hour ))) ,,, (3-4 times a week for muscle recover/rest period )

 

I have recently "plateaud" in Lifting Weights (hard time building above currently where at) ,,, (,,, I am doing a variation of Strength training/Drop Sets ,,,)

 

 

My Question(s) is to Ratsun Members/Anyone ,,,

 

(1) If you have "plateaued" what did you do to "break" it ,,, and continue to gain ?

 

(2) What is your Diet ?

 

(3) What Supplements do you take ?

 

(4) What is a good overall protein powder for building ? Does it work ?

 

(5) How long have you been doing your "routine" ?

 

(6) Does it work for you ?

 

(7) What would you change ?

 

 

 

This is kind of a weird thread ,,, a few funny's are fine ,,, ,,, but I am trying to gather as much information as I can to better myself ,,, and improve my routines ,,, and yes I have "searched"

 

Please Post as much or as little as you deem fit ,,,

 

 

 

 

Thanks Ratsun !

I have sex with much younger women, it tends to burn off more calories quicker. I also ride my bike all over. Working o the datsun helps too. I take green tea tabs and have great energy. I am at work at 5am and usually don't get shuteye till around midnight, so keeping going is the big secret. I have lost so much weight since my divorce lol

^^^ HOLY CRAP !!! kinda looks hardcore ,,, :cool:

 

 

Too bad my knees and ankles are giving out ,,, :rolleyes: ,,, gotta be careful with them ,,, so I have to use machines like treadmills and Elipticals ,,,

 

Military Presses strain my back pretty good ,,, :unsure: ,, so IF I do them I am careful/lighter weights

 

 

Free Weights are best for a lot of things ,,, for me at least ,,, :D

:lol: ,,, Jenny crank ,,, nope never done that either ! :)

[izzo]

Good, don't. Thought i was cool enough to not get addicted.. I did.. Took me a few years to get out of it. the shit that happened in between was unreal. haven't been back since, never will be. To much love for the life now days to even think about the past :D

[metalmonkey47]

I have food allergies. Nasty ass deadly allergies that have had me in the hospital 4 times in the last year.

 

 

 

I GUARAN-fucking-TEE any of you stop eating anything milk, wheat, and soy related perminantly for a month, you will see a drastic change. My metabolism rate is so high, I can eat all day for hours, and never gain a pound.

 

 

 

 

 

BTW, izzo, glad to hear you were man enough to kick it. I've seen friends die from that stuff, and it ruins lives. Keep it clean bro.

I need a bit of wheat ,,, or my muscle gets eaten/nutrition !!!

 

Good to know on the dairy though ,,, I LOVE MILK :D :(

Me i work out every day for an hour then i run 4 1/2 miles drink water every hour to clean out the system for lunch it`s a salad with no dressing and grilled fish then i do half hour on treadmill and for dinner it is only organic fruit ,, and only snack on apple slices

 

 

BUT this guy not so much

 

I really wish this had been in focus

 

 

Seriously... the boys weight coach tells them to never intake more than 40 grams of protein (assuming bottled kind ) in a meal ( he stresses way less ) and if starting a protein regiment start very small and work your way up.. Apparently it causes the blood to go acidic if to much at once. and it could cause kidney stones if you dont drink shit loads of water to flush the extra out. But he is a health freak and seems to like torturing the players with un-godly amount of reps instead of mass weight.

Sounds like an excellent regimen :D ,,, I wish I could do 4.5 miles a day ,,, Yes absolutely WATER IS KEY :) ,,,,

 

40grams you say ? ,,, this is good !!! I think it was like 1 gram per pound of body weight or something like that for body buidling ? ( I am not sure at all !!! )

 

I eat A LOT of protein ,,, but I drink 6-10 glasses of water a day ,,, lol at the un-godly amount of reps :lol: ,,, yup !!! good ol days

 

I am planning on "building" soon ,,, Still In "cut" phase ,,, I am only competing against me :lol: :D

 

Thankyou for the advice on the kidney stones !!! I forgot about that to be honest !!! ( der der der ) :)

I weighted 205 pounds five years ago, then I got married and gained 70 pounds, a year ago I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and dropped 45 pounds in 3 months, and that was because I wasn't eating at all. I started to feel very bad when I was eating something, now a year later I'm eating "normally" but I try to avoid junk food and try to ride my bike everyday for at least 1-2 hours a day to keep my weight at 230 pounds.
