Hey guys, I'm not sure if I should post all this here, but I guess I will find out soonBut I have a few questions.
Okay, so i'm 16 and just joined the gym. I also just doscovered I can't have lactose, and therefore can't have my protein powder. I was wondering if soy protein would be suitable? I would post a link, but it doesn't allow
No soy. Eat meat, eat beans.
Okay, so second is food. I'm not getting enough protein, or as many calories as i need throughout the day. All i really have access to is chicken nuggets, meat pies, fish, beef patties etc.. are any of these even good for me? And I work every day so it's hard to find time to cook up stuff. Can anyone suggest something easy I could take to work and eat in 30 mins? I usually take sandwiches to work and it's obviously not enough to eat.
Your right, that's not enough to eat. All the foods there are crap. Eat veggies, meat, nuts and fruit.
Don't tell me you don't have enough time to prepare meals. I was working 14-16 hour days and still managed to train and cook food. If you can't be bothered to prepare meals, you won't be bothered to train. Trust me.
Last is the actual working out. Okay, so I use machine weights, is this going to hinder me? I just feel comfortable using them. Also, i'd like to know if 5 exercises for legs, and 10 for upper body is enough? I'm not trying to get huge (and may be in the wrong plcae) but yeah..I need to gain weight
Machine weights suck. Get a barbell and go nuts. Look for PTC beginner program and get into that.
All you need to be doing is
Squat
Deadlift
Bench
Mitary press
Bent row
Pull ups
Thankyou to anyone who took the time to read this, and anyone who could offer me some advice on any of this.
