glutamine, dextrose, creatine, aminos, ....

[skinnyfromtoptobottom]

Hi.
I'm wondering whether it would be a good idea to take

-creatine
-protein shakes
-weight gaines
-glutamine
-amino acids
-dextrose

in my diet? is that too much stuff at once or can you do that when trying to gain mass?
if i can do that, when and how should i take glutamine, amino acids and dextrose?

Just do a search on each topic or item my friend. For starters, the above is good for adding mass if done properly. Glutamine, amino acids and dextrose are particularily effective post w/o.

All depends on your diet....

I would take creatine 3 times a day at 5g intervals, while protein is to be taken upon your protein needs. Weight gainers are really not needed, but I think you can switch them as Meal-replacements. Glutamine, take 10g of glutamine post-workout and 10g before bed. Amino acids, if you know how to load Aminos post workout then do so, deplete first then load up.

Dextrose, being so high on the GI scale, I recommend doing only post workout, or on a carb-up.

Mr X. What is the protocol for Amino loading post workout?
Do you recommend the 6g cocktail of aminos prior to workout as being suggested by research?

The best way is to start the load 2 sets before your workout ends, take 2g of aa before the workout is done (2sets left) then do two GRUELING sets to get the maximum pump (even if you have to do 100reps). Then take 4g immediately followed by a protein/dextrose shake.

what is the idea of taking aa DURING workout? will they be transported into (damaged) muscle cells immediately after i've taken them (so still during workout and maybe even during those 2 following sets)?

oh, i forgot about that:
why should i even bother taking dextrose? i've once read i can/should take it, but dextrose is sugar, right? and isn't it right that too much sugar will burn muscles somehow?


and will taking all that stuff fuck up stomachs?

Not, it's not the same, the glycogen transport chain and the blood flodd will increase the amino acid uptake 10fold before the workout is done.

Too much sugar burn muscle???!!!....NO!

That' s new one, I'll have to add that to my bodybuilding myth list. Nope, it is absolutely incorrect, and the "f** up stomach" part is also incorrect.

What about pre-loading with 6g Amino's (BC) prior to workout?
