Pre-workout

Jason 9 years ago • updated by andy 9 years ago • 2

Is it ok to eat a protein bar pre-workout rather than a whey protein shake? Does having a whey protein shake have the most benefits?

Answer

I personally prefer MTS Whey + Carb 10, but if YOU perform best with that, game on! If over 30g carbs, add this for a sick nutrient partitioning pump: https://www.tigerfitness.com/MTS-Nutrition-Nutrient-Driver-120-Capsules-p/1002692.htm

counting vegetables

Joel 9 years ago • updated by Marc Lobliner 9 years ago • 2

Do you need to count the calories of the vegetables you eat? Some think that vegetable as a simple carbohydrate has no impact on physical composition and that if you need it,  you can eat them in large quantities without putting on fat.

Vacuum exercise for tightening waist line

Todd Gebert 9 years ago • updated by andy 9 years ago • 2

Is the Vacuum exercise adequate for tightening up your waistline along with other abdominal exercises.? I have heard this exercise helps tighten up a distended stomach even if you are already lean. If it is how many reps/sets would be sufficient to add into an Ab routine?

Answer

It will help control your stomach by being able to "suck it in", but bodyfat dictates abs and genetics dictates waist size. See this:

Best exercises besides the Big 3/4

Matt Dorler 9 years ago • updated by andy 9 years ago • 2

Besides the standard big 3/4 exercises (Squat, Deadlift, Bench, Overhead press) what are your favorite exercises for each muscle group excluding the big 3/4?

Answer
andy 9 years ago

I have no favorites to be honest, I think every "logical" movement has its place but I am a huge fan of mostly closed chain movements and don't do many open chain movements anymore.

Stimulant ban

Brett Bowles 9 years ago • updated by andy 9 years ago • 2

Since DMHA is soon to be banned in Australia do you believe that America will do the same?

Answer
andy 9 years ago

Probably, but the government has a tough time actually enforcing laws!

Answer
andy 9 years ago

It is actually a mess! Can be 30% to 90% whey--just a scam protein in most of the applications it is used in and a marketing gimmick. This is why I believe a quality isolate/concentrate blend like MTS Nutrition Machine Whey is superior to.....everything!

Answer
andy 9 years ago

Dan, I am not sure what this means. Bone structure is different in all people....and it does influence gain potential as do all genetic variables.
