I’m a sophomore turning a junior and i am bout 5′10 and 149lbs. I don’t know if i should take any supplements like creatine or whey protein to gain muscle faster and gain weight. I need some ideas on what i should take?
Depends on how much you want to spend. Here are my favorite Supplements in order what I like and use the most.
Whey protein
AAKG (arginine any version is good for me)
Glutamine
Creatine – not to often because I eat so much red meat.
I was able to go from 135 lbs to 175 lbs in one summer. I ate like a horse, made sure I ate at least 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight, and I used Mike Mentzer High Intensity training routines (AKA heavy duty).
Here is a youtube clip of one of the routines. clip is kinda boring, but gets the point across

Now here is my whey protein schedule
Right out of bed 50 gram shake/smoothie
Immediately after workout 50 gram shake/smoothie
Right before bed 50 gram shake/smoothie
Then sometimes if I wake up in the middle of the night, I will go to the kitchen and have another 50 gram shake/smoothie.
This blows up recovery and puts the mass on quick!

Here is a WICKED gainer smoothie video
Try and eat a couple of these mega gainer smoothies per day in addition to your normal Diet and your sure to gain!!!
I’m a thin girl, except for in the hips, what’s a good Excercise for me to lose a couple inches in that area?
I would keep the hips, guys like curves but to lose a little all you have to do is jog, hit the treadmil or exercise bike. You could even run up and down stairs for 5 minutes.
I am a Program Coordinator for a Summer Youth Employment Program. One of my students is interested in becoming a personal trainer. This one is out of my field. I’d like to give him info on how to beomce one.
How do you become a Personal Trainer? Do you have to go to a 4 year college or trade school for it?
not at all. you have to take a test for certification. the test is pretty difficult though. you need to be able to identify all the muscle groups, and then depending on the certification he goes for, he’ll have to identify exercises that go with those muscle groups. THen he’ll have to get experience, and then he’s a personal trainer.
Years of medical research confirms that genetics predetermine much of who we are. Our grandfathers knew this when they coined the phrase; "An apple doesn’t fall from the tree". In president Obama’s Health care plan a "wellness initiative" is proposed whereby those who are obese will be fined for their susceptibility to medical complications. Since geneticists have confirmed that many people are obese because of their genetic predisposition then, is the fine imposed under the Wellness initiative discriminatory and unconstitutional?
You are misstating the issue. Genetics plays a role, certainly. You can be predisposed to arteriosclerosis, diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, certain cancers, and yes even obesity… but that does not mean your destiny is carved in stone. It just means you have to work harder to stay healthy. Using your genetics as an excuse for being fat… or anything else is a cop-out.
As to the "fine" you refer to for being fat, I don’t know enough about whether there are any allowances for health conditions that could contribute to a person being obese to say for sure, but since obesity is already classified as a disability, I would say it "could" be considered discriminatory… again depending on how it is decided. If contributory conditions were factored in, I would have no problem with the otherwise healthy obese having to pay more… just like I wouldn’t have a problem with smokers paying more.
I am thinking about becoming a Fitness model. I love to workout. I just want to know what I have to do in order to become. My ultimate goal is to be on the cover of a magazine. How do I do that? Can you guys help me?
you can THINK about becoming a fitness model all you want, but millions of other people are thinking of the same thing. if there were a secret weapon that would ensure you would become famous, everyone would be, so noone can really help you here. you have to not only have the body, but the face, the skin, the hair, the talent, the height and a TON of luck and connections to get any modeling job. you will also have to be a client of a well-known modeling agency, and they dont take just anyboy. anyway, male fitness models dont really become famous. i worked for a modeling agency and did some modeling a few years back, and i cant name one.
