What's the best flavor of this brand of Protein Powder? I'm almost done with my Strawberry flavor and it's pretty gross, looking for another that I can mix with either milk or water.
Protein general I guess.
>>35381823
Buy only unflavored and add what you want to it. Or preferably just leave it plain.
>>35381823
Cookies and cream

Hi /fit/. I was wondering if you guys knew of any cheap high caloric yet nutritinal foods I could buy to survive the next month as a homeless person. I have around $100 alloted to food expenditures but I'm unsure of which foods would keep me relatively healthy without having to spend what sad amount of money I have left.
For the last week and a half, I've been surviving off of large Crazy Bread with meat sauce from Little Caesar's. It's less than $3 per day, but I know it's not something I can continue to afford in the long run. Any help is much appreciated.
canned beans
>>35381636
Oh shit man be careful out there, good luck man :(
I'd suggest BK chicken nuggets
>>35381649
Is there any specific canned bean I should look for? Kidney, garbanzo, pinto, etc.?
What are your thoughts on Intermittent Fasting?
>>35381476
greatest thing ever.
weighed 182.8 yesterday morning before having my christmas feast.
181.6 was this morning's weight... and i was afraid i had over-eaten.
as someone who was formerly type 2 obese, and has played with every weight loss method in the book (even bulimia), IF is the most fool-proof and effective method ever.
literally just don't eat for the first 6-8 hours you wake up, and that is it.
black coffee can help blunt appetite (i don't really use that tip, though).
also you might want to eat half a piece of fruit to maintain liver glycogen levels from time to time (Basically when you feel hunger pangs that don't go away after a few minutes)
though i have been using vitamin gummies instead.

read the sticky
I tried it but counting calories has worked far better for me, and I always know if I'm hitting my macros properly.
IF seems like it's for lazy people who just want to eat whatever without feeling guilty.
So I went to buy some Whey. 2kg of generic whey (120cal/24g protein per scoop) was $40 at the grocery store. At the supplement place, a 900kg tub of Whey (same scoop ratio) was $70. The dude told me that the amino acids in the expensive one are way better than in the cheaper one.
Does this really matter that much, or is it just some way to jew me out of money? Does it really matter, especially for a beginner/novice, how expensive your whey is?
>>35381466
900kg for $70? Enlighten me on where I can get this deal Op.
>>35381466
>>35381532
Fuck I meant 900g
you're getting gypped if you're paying $70

Why haven't you switched over to Dumbbell Pressing already? Also don't give me that "But I do both." You are a Bitch pusher so no need to speak.
>>35381329
is there a serious difference between the two?
i did bench for like 4 months, then went on to dumbbell and honestly i feel like i was doing better with the bench
>>35381337
Dumbell is a good accessory for barbell bench

You are a moron op
Hello /fit/
Does someone have experience with the Insanity Asylum program?
If you don't know, it's the second part of a hardcore program to get "athletic". The first one is mostly to lose fat but I don't need that. The black instructor is gay haha
My goal is to get my worn out body back in shape and see how far I can gain endurance and speed at least once in my life.
There's stuff about it :

I know for a fact it's legit, someone I know got nice results but I need a bit more input before I get to it : I still hesitate with the Bronson method which seems very interesting too.

>Plyometric conditioning as a workout
Do it on top of weight training if you're fat or cutting. Prolly good cardio as it's more varied.
Yeah. I got zhredded in five weeks and am now running half marathons.
You're gonna get a bunch of stupid responses, but it's GREAT

So while I save up the small fortune to purchase another one, what are some good exercises I can do with one dumbell?

Do i just throw away 4 pounds of whey powder?
It tastes like crap, and no one in my family wants free whey powder.
>>35380820
make it into smoothies
>>35380820
If you can't man up about the taste, sell it on your uni's local Facebook market
>>35380820
Eat it you faggot. It's not supposed to taste good.
how do i into calves?
>>35380712
Weighted calf raises
Also, always do your cardio at an incline
>>35380712
literally by training them.
make sure you are doing your calf raises on as tall an object as you can manage, for a full ROM.
make sure you keep your spine straight and knees locked (i.e. don't cheat the weight up there using momentum from your legs and back).
if you are still having trouble feeling it in your calves, try playing around with supination/pronation of the foot.
outside of that, bodyweight single-leg calf raises are a good follow-up to weighted calf raises.
i also like to do calf-based plyometric work after i train calves
>>35380712
Calves are 75% genetics, you got em or you don't
rate my macros /fit/
just starting lifting so ive heard I can gain muscle and lose fat at the same time for a while.
scooby says 30% of kcals should be protons, but ive heard youre supposed to eat 1*body weight in lbs. Which should I go with?
Also, is a lower carb % good for losing fat so I dont have any unused carbs stored as fats?
>>35380663
kek, it's more like 1.5g protein of kg body mass
>>35380663
Listen to >>35380670
1.5x is perfect.
Also, you need less carbs and more fat, unless you're doing a ridiculous amount of cardio.
I'd say go 30% proteins, 35%/35% carbs and fat
>>35380704
can i get a second opinion on this?
also you again, you said 1.5*kg for protein but then also said 30%. Does that mean you think I should decrease my daily caloric intake until 30% = 1.5*kg?
