I have been on 2 Muscle Milks a day and use to take it with EAS HP but quit after awhile and just stuck with a Protein shake diet...

I shop at Vitamin Shoppe

Little expensive at first but after 4 years, I get a pretty good deal on the side

Ya my neighbor gave me some muscle milk a few months ago, but I only used it a couple times. Too much fat IMO.

It does have a bit of fat, but it's "good fat" so I wouldn't really worry about it turning into adipose tissue. MM is also a blend of mostly casein protein and is fairly slow digesting, which makes it ideal for use as a pre-bed shake to cut down on protein depletion and muscle catabolism while you sleep.

Creatine Monohydrate is not very soluble in water. Mix it with OJ or some other viscous fruit drink. You have to drink it as soon as you mix it or it will all settle to the bottom of the cup....

eat a peanut butter sandwich and drink some milk before you go to bed every night. i was told this back in highschool and it worked. i used to have the same problem until i got introduced to beer. so u might just start drinking a 12 pk every day

12 pack a day does it for me. Been doing it for 5 years now and I can't seem to stop. LOL

But I'm starting to get back into shape and need to learn a workout plan and what to take everyday. Can someone help. Need to get ready for boat season.

I would imagine that your definition of "a lot" and mine differ considerably. I bet if you actually wrote down just how much you eat on a daily basis, it wouldn't be nearly as much as you think.

Allstarhealth seems to have the best prices from all of the links provided(For what I'm looking for).
I also noticed the only difference between the EAS phosphagen HP and ELITE, is that the elite has beta-alanine. Not sure if thats worth the $25-30 difference..mmm.
www.supplementwarehouse.com is the only place to buy. Ask for non-expired product if you are worried about getting. Syntha-6 was 22 bucks a jug last time I bought. They also price match and knock off another 5%. I always shop around looking for cheapest and then copy them the link.

[QUOTE=Donohue96M6Z28;10827483]Ah I see what you're saying... What CM do you recommend?[/QUOTE

CM is a waste. Its also highly damaging to liver and kidneys. Look for a Esterfied Creatine. Ester Ethyl to be exact. I like Cell Mass for that. I hate working out without it. Esterfied creatines are almost 100% absorbed. Im very sore when I work out and this stuff definitely shows me a difference when I use and dont use it. I recover about 60% faster. I use Super Pump 250 for my preworkout. The NO Xplode was good but not as strong as SP250.

I really hope you were posting this as a joke, because just about everything in this post is incorrect.
