Hey thanks for your quick replies. I should have said in my initial post that im already using flaxseed oil, ANPB, cashews and olive oil in my diet. I often worry too much about eating carbs late, or carbs and fat together, so im always struggling to fit in a gainer shake. I think i will buy...

Hi there, im doing a bulk, and im struggling to get the calories in at the moment. Im shooting for about 4000-4200 per day and ive got all the macros worked out on excel, its just that im getting sick of eating all the time. I really dont like veggies (ie broccoli, spinach etc) and i know...

Im currently using the BSN elite stack (NO-Xplode, Cell Mass, Axis-HT and Nitrix), im getting pretty good results with this altho it is a little expensive. I just ordered a bottle of Yohimburn and a pack of T-rex, i just thought if they go together ok? i dont want to have an adverse reaction...

When i workout I have my PWO of 50g dextrose 50g whey within 30 mins of working out. 1 hour after my PWO shake I will then have 3 teaspoons of ANPB and a couple of small chicken steaks (390 cals, 40g protein). Ive been doing this for a while now, im in a bulking phase. Is this ok?

Ive been on this forum a few times and i see a lot of people talking about bulking and cutting phases. I was wondering what are the main differences between these type of eating plans? Is it just calories? is it the amount of carbs? the amount of protein or a combination of all three? Please...

Every morning i make up 60g oatmeal and 40g whey for my first meal. I use instant oats for ease and add the whey in with the oats before pouring on boiling water and mixing up. Ive read previous posts stating that heat will destroy whey protein and render it useless. Please advise me if what...

Hi there Ive been lifting for about a year now and got serious about 5 months ago. Im currently taking creatine and using YES topically on my gut and handles. I take 1 multi vit tablet per day and was wondering if i should be taking amino acid tablets? Im not an expert on this and some of...

Thanks a lot, im gonna try to find some casein protein in the UK. The last question i had was this: Would you ditch the chicken or keep that in there as well? as i said i eat the chicken somewhere around 11:30pm, would i be ok to take the casein right after that? let me know Cheers Paul

H, thanks for answering quickly. I havent actually got any casein protein in the house at the moment. Any suggestions on what i should do in the mean time? I have the normal stuff, ie whey, flax, etc i normally drink a whey shake with flax around 11am, and another without the flax around 9pm...

Hi there Ive read a few threads about having enough protein as a last meal to keep the muscles fed throughout the night. Im currently trying to clean bulk and im having 8 chicken breast strips aroud 11:30pm, this consists of about 300kcals and 42g protein, im also having a protein bar which...

Hi there ive been out of action for 2 weeks due to a chest injury, and im doing 45 mins swimming as my chest is still sore. I was wondering what PWO if any i should be having when i get back. I normally do 40g whey/70g dex after lifting for an hour. Let me know Cheers Paul

so is this stuff no good then? how much different is it to ANPB? this was £1.09 for 270g, the all natural stuff will be a lot more im guessing. Cheers Paul

I didnt know if this was the right stuff, so i bought it anyway as it wasnt too expensive. Its Organic peanut butter and the ingredients are as follows Roasted Peanuts (97%) Palm Oil (2%) Sunflower Oil (1%) Sea Salt. After reading the previous post i dont think this is it. Let me know tho...

Thanks guys Im off to Morrisons (they took over safeway) later on to try and find this ANPB. Obviously im gonna look in the aisle with the regular PB. What are the ingredients on the ANPB likely to list, (ie is it just peanuts and butter!!) and what are they likely to be on the regular stuff...

Wow, thanks guys I didnt realise these were so bad for you! Ill look into making my own, cos i work full time and really need the convenience of at least 1 or 2 bars per day. Ill see what recipes are about and take it from there. Thanks again Paul
