there is no way you'll get fat by drinking protein shakes. especially pre/post workout shakes

seems like most people are getting on the juice nowadays... what are you guys taking for weight gain? I started working out heavily about 3 months ago, started taking creatine and protein. I was up to 185lbs a few weeks back. then i hurt my shoulder and had to take a few days off and i stopped taking creatine. I'm back at the gym now and only taking protein after working out. I'm down to about 175-180. I'm guessing i lost the water weight from creatine... I'm 5'10, so i wanna get to a solid 190-200. Is there anything I can take to help me get there? I wouldnt mind going on the juice if I had to, but I need to know the right stuff to do for that as well...

Also to all you steak eaters out there, where do you buy your steaks and how do you cook them? I've been gettin mine from superstore and just grilling them up to a medium rare? I'm a little skeptical of them though...

i just made this over the weekend... it's THE most delicious protein shake i've ever made or had. rivals any sort of starbucks blended drink in my books plus it's a whole lot healthier:
- about 1 cup leftover cold coffee (i don't measure i just pour)
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- about 1/4 ish cup (organic) coconut milk
- about 1-2 tbsp natural peanut butter
- lots and lots of ice... enough so after it's blended it hasn't all melted away
BLEND and ENJOY!

Finally went back to the gym yesterday, I'm surprised that after 3 weeks I havent really lost much strength, if any for that matter..
I still cant go 100% yet though.
Should I start loading up on steak again even if I'm not training at 100%?
Also how often should I be eating steak? A couple of my buddies said just to eat it a few times a week, not everyday?

Fuuuck, anybody have any interesting workouts for doing the glamour muscles (e.g. Biceps/Triceps)?
I've been doing squat/dead/bench for awhile now, but am going on vacation at the end of June and decided to focus on the glamour muscles a bit. However, I am finding it entirely boring doing endless curls and skullcrushers.

Ohyeah, I am thinking of adding supplements to my regimine, I currently only use Whey protein and creatine monohydrate.
My goal is to get more muscle definition for my trip,and am going to be going on a cutting phase in about a week. Planning doing more HIIT/tabata and Plyo along with just some maintenance lifting to prevent possible muscle loss, along with Bikram yoga on my off days (i.e. every other day). Diet will be super strict with lean protein and carbs strictly from vegetables and oatmeal.
What readily available supplements would be recommended? That SuperPump stuff looks good to up the intensity of my workouts. Something simple that I can buy at Popeyes, I don't wanna do the whole EC stack hassle.
Thanks!

I've been doing that and my arms are growing pretty fast now. They were always my weak point..

Bought myself a new present today for completing the 2 last exams I will ever have to write (Hopefully, but not likely). A new iPod touch and the "Gym Buddy" app for recording my workouts. Hopefully this can keep me on track so I can progress a little more then just memorizing. Just completed my first workout with it, and it seems to be pretty simple. I like it.
As for cutting carbs on a cut. I generally try to cut them pretty much right out. the only carbs I get are from veggies, and when I cheat a little, it's generally something with some carbs. Pretty much just try for as much protein as I can get, and pack in the veggies.

you gotta give a better response than that - we're looking to exchange ideas, not shoot each other down here
anyways, what is it that you suggest someone does otherwise?
how do you address the body's utilization of protein? how is consuming less meals advantangous to more meals?
