Post Workout Meal Nutrition for Best Results

---

The recommended post workout meal nutrition plan is to take in a meal of fast acting proteins and carbohdrates. After your workout your body is hungry for the important nutrients needed to make positive body transformation changes.

It's been shown that a post workout meal or shake consisting of protein and carbs helped to boost training recovery.

Glycogen, a complex carbohydrate stored in muscle and the liver, is rapidly depleted from muscles during intense exercise, whether it's using

Metabolic Resistance Training Workouts

---

What is metabolic resistance training? It is, in its simplest form, the combination of intense strength training with aerobic conditioning.

Metabolic resistance training (also known as metabolic conditioning) trains three major biological systems, muskuloskeletal, circulatory and respiratory.

Most people perform their resistance training and their cardio, or aerobic workouts, separately.

But, for the most part, this isn't how we function. And it's definitely not how most athletes

Roberty Downey Jr Workout

---

A Robert Downey Jr Workout depends on which role for which the actor is preparing. While he's fit, ripped and muscular in both Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes the two different characters required two different physiques.

For Iron Man the Robert Downey Jr Workout focused more on building muscle mass while staying relatively lean. For Sherlock Holmes, he lost that extra muscle mass, carrying 25 muscular pounds less than he did for his role as Tony Stark.



The amazing thing is that

A Work Out Schedule To Avoid If You Want Results

---

A good work out schedule is crucial if you wan to get results from your training program.

When you work out is going to be a very individual thing, based on your life, career, and other commitments. But that's not the type of work out schedule I'm talking about right now.

In this instance, I'm talking about your actual training program, not whether you train before or after work, or whether you take off from training on weekends.

I've discussed the concept of the split routine

Hindu Squats and Hindu Push Ups

Hindu squats and Hindu push ups have been around a long, long time. They are variations of the classic bodyweight squat and push up and have more recently been popularized in Matt Furey's Combat Conditioning book.

Hindu squats and Hindu push ups are fantastic bodyweight exercises that you can use as part of your overall fitness program.

But let's face it, for most people, just doing Hindu squats and push ups every morning would be a huge step in their fitness levels, as well as the

Best Bicep Exercises

---

While I have a few I consider the 'best bicep exercises', for me, the best bicep exercise is one you (almost) never see people perform, at least not for their biceps. And that's the curl grip pull up, arms shoulder width, or slightly inside the shoulders.

If you don't yet have the strength to make this a meaningful exercise, you can use the lat pulldown machine.

This exercise is the centerpiece for my favorite biceps workout that is part of my free arm training report you can get ==>

What are the best supplements for muscle gain?

---

Most of the best supplements for muscle gain aren't really anything new and exciting. Let's face it, the vast majority of bodybuilding supplements, whether for building muscle mass or getting ripped, DO NOT WORK!

Most are a complete waste of your money. But there are definitely quality supplements that can help you build muscle quickly as long as your training program and nutrition are in order first.

That's one of the biggest problems. People are constantly searching for some magic bullet that will give them amazing results but this isn't the case. Supplements are supplements.

Supplements are NOT drugs!

They SUPPLEMENT proper weight training routines and muscle building nutrition programs.

Now that we have that taken care of, what are some muscle building supplements that really work?

How Much Protein Should You Take To Build Muscle Mass?

---

How much protein to build muscle? I get that question a lot! Quickly followed by 'what's the best protein powder for building muscle?'

First things first, does protein build muscle? Yes!

Protein is the building block of muscle. If you don't get enough protein, you won't be able to build a significant amount of muscle mass.

You can also start getting a variety of health aliments as well. Our bodies need protein to build muscle, as well as for overall health.

As far as how much protein to build muscle, the reason it can seem confusing is because a definitive answer hasn't been discovered yet.

Protein intake is a lot like calorie intake.

There are a variety of formulas that will give you a good starting point to determine how many calories you need each day but ultimately you'll need to track, experiment and find out for yourself.

But it is a lot easier when you at least have somewhere to start.

Best Exercises to Lose Weight

---

The best exercises to lose weight are not the same old same old. It's not the stationary bike, the treadmill, the elliptical, or something you sit and spin around on until you're dizzy!

I wrote about hiit training secrets and how the average calories burned running a marathon is about 2,600 calories.

I don't want you to break down and cry but there's about 3,500 calories in a pound of fat!

So, you can see why traditional cardio routines aren't the best exercises to lose weight.
