I have a few questions here, and if you could take some time to help me out, I'd really appreciate it.
*BUT.... I don't want some big seminar about eating 60mg of pynozymanning and 18cc's of amolymelium and drinking a liquid meal with 14gm of abanamamoid.... I don't know a lot about the technical side of things, and don't care to. I don't have the time or energy for that.... if you're going to answer, please answer in layman terms that I can understand, using real food terms. For example, chicken breast is a real food term. Telling me to drink 20gm of dextrose postworkout, won't really help me. Thanks.*
Okay, so.... I don't have much money, and can't afford to buy supplements. It's simply out of the question. Having said that....
1) Are there any cheap alternatives to supplements (ie. once someone told me that skim milk powder is good.... I understand that these will be very much inferior to real supplements, but I have no choice).
2) What is the best food to eat first thing in the morning?
3) How often should I eat if I want to gain muscle (I don't care about gaining fat at this time)?
4) What are the best types of carbohydrate foods to eat for bulking (can't be bothered to read the whole article), in real food terms please (eg. oatmeal, rice etc....)
5)How often should I be eating them?
6) Please list the best and cheapest protein sources. I already eat lots of chicken, eggs and even ham (I know it's probably not doing my arteries much good, but it's cheap and convenient). Also milk.
7) How often should I be eating them? Should I mix them with the carbs or doesn't it matter?
8) Best pre-workout meal, and how long before training?
9) Best post-workout meal (keeping in mind that it takes me 15-20 minutes to walk home from the gym). Is there anything small and convenient I could take with me to eat on the way home? (Please use real food terms.... don't tell me to have dextrose followed by a liquid whey protein meal- doesn't help me)
10) Is there any way to make tuna taste better?Because I can barely get through a single can anymore.
11) Are there any good fats I should be eating to help me gain muscle, and what foods contain these?
12) What about meals before bed?
I think that's all.... if I think of anymore, I'll add them as they come. I know this seems like a lot of questions, but you only have to answer them simply and briefly. I just want to gain muscle, not become Mr. O....
Thank you.
