Anything to help me with P.E ?

BbuilderTeen · 08-29-2007, 01:18 AM

17 y-o
During school i have 2 P.E classes in a row, just starting school they murdered me today considering there early in the morning and all we do is train in there.

2 mile walk, then 5 laps ''1.25 miles no walking'' after abs, obliques and push ups.
By second lap i almost threw up...

Can anyone help me out on this?
Its def hard workouts everyday, any supplements i could take to help?
My goals to gain muscle and size..any words of advice for this kid?

Note: our main lifts are bench press, dead lifts, and squats.

Well man there is no supplement thats going to help the fact that your out of cardio shape. How ever there are somethings that will help aid in recovery and strength.

For recovery you can use the following
Bcaa(Helps fuel Muscles)
100%Whey Protein(Help build Musle also)
Multi Vit.

For Strength you can use the following
Creatine.
And any of these will help a bit also:
No-xplode
No-Shotgun
SuperPump250

Also i almost forgot most important is eat eat eat! Dont underestimate natural foods. They will help you more than ny supplement will.

looks like you need to up your cadiovascular fitness, when do you do the lifts compared to when you do the cardio?

If your a school, you need to build up your endurance and stamina. You will adapt to the change and you will build and recover.

If you can, I have noticed in increase in my recovery time by taking a fast digesting weight gainer (I take IDS Smart Gainer) right after your done. But everyone else is right, your cardio just sucks right now and you are going to need to get that up the hard crappy way, by just dealing with it and working on your recovery. Eat tons of protein and good carbs (whole grains) and make sure you are getting enough sleep at night!

We tested our 1 mile for our weight training class today and our teacher was talking about cardio and how it's super important to everyone. But just keep running a mile or two a day and maybe even try slowly increase that. Running strengthens the mind if you keep pushing yourself and just don't stop. It's all a mind game.

yeah my cardio is not the greatest, smoking makes that way worse so ive quit that already..
I was thinking of brining two protein shakes to our class, take one b4 an after wrkin out. Maybe some creatine before as well to boost me up.

Sound ok or no?
Thx

Not a bad idea, but if I were you take a protein shake one hour before P.E. class then 15-30 minutes later take the creatine. You might even want to add glutamine, they work great together.

I wish I had a gym class like that in highschool. All we did was play basketball everyday.

**rIPPDUP** · 08-29-2007, 11:21 PM

try glutamine, bcaa's, and whey for now. taking creatine is a bad idea because you won't be getting any of its gains because of your constant stages of dehydration. creatine requires you to consume massive quantities of water and if you can't, or are using water a lot such as sweating, then you really can't benefit from using this. try out the combo that i previously said.

BbuilderTeen · 08-30-2007, 12:29 AM

yeah i was skeptical about creatine because theres quite a bit too it. Just one thing im not sure of, ive never taken glutamine and bcaa, just follow use instructions on bottles?

p.s. soo im not the smartest on protein, is it smart to take it before and after. ''50g protein per drink''

BbuilderTeen · 08-30-2007, 12:58 AM

WoW
so im gonna speak up an ask now so i know, what kind of bcaa an glutamine am i lookin for, theres so many dif types. Anyone have any recommendations?

**Tall HardGainer** · 08-30-2007, 02:33 PM

Optiumum Nutrition makes great BCAA's, and MHP has a pretty damn good glutamine. As far as the creatine is concerned, yes water is an influencing factor, but it is a major factor with a monohydrate type of creatine (even the micronized version) however, creatine etheyl ester works differently and doesn't use water as a means of transportation. 5g of Creatine Etheyl Ester is the equivalent of 15-20grams of monohydrate because of the absorption ratio. With monohydrate you have to take in a lot because not all of it gets through the cell membrane and thats what causes the "Bloat" with creatine monohydrate. When you are on something like an ester form of creatine you are not necesarily getting that bloat because of the ester molecule attached to the creatine, its using a different means of transportation and the absorption into the muscle is pretty much 100%, thats why the serving dosages of creatine in Creatine Etheyl Ester are so much lower than monohydrate. So yes you can take creatine for the class and it should help.
As far as your shakes go, I would take a shake that has about 30-40 grams protein 1 hour before class and take the creatine and glutamine 15 minutes before class, so that it will kick in a little after you've started your work and it will carry you through the rest of your class. At the end of class make sure you get a good fast digesting protein shake in you because you body is now in a state where it is absorbing everything to feed the muscles that have just been worked. If weight gain is your goal, I suggest IDS Smart Gainer, its fast digesting, has a good amount of carbs, protein and calories to help you recover faster.

I don't think gym class is that great in hs.

monkeybiker · 08-31-2007, 02:57 AM
