work out stories

Over the past year I’ve been trying to gain weight and muscle. If you’re built like me, this is not easy. I’ve been skinny all my life…I could eat whatever I wanted and pretty much stayed the same size and shape. Putting on weight and muscle is difficult for me and takes a lot of time and work.

I’ve been eating like a horse and working out religiously, but I’ve also been taking some supplements. Here’s what I’m currently taking for muscle building supplements.

• Cytosport Cytogainer shakes - 3 to 4 per day (contains small amounts of creatine and glutamine)

When you get serious about losing weight, and/or getting in shape, and/or losing weight, and/or building muscle, your diet plays a huge role.  Probably more than most people realize.  Regardless of your fitness goals, there are elements of your diet that should remain constant.  You need to eliminate sugars, eliminate saturated fats, reduce carbohydrates, and increase your intake of protein and other vitamins.

It will take dedication and will power to effectively change your diet and stick with it. And as I’ve mentioned before, one of the keys to getting real results is consistency. Consistency in your cardio training, lifting weights, eating well, etc.  If you are dedicated to working out and reaching your goals then you can make a few changes to your diet that will really help.
