im doing advacned GVT apparently,i got this from this site…striaght copy and paste
so why don’t you use whey or Surge ?
Surge is not reccomended for my age, though i can still buy it. Why because my parents say its a waste of money, even though its my money and they have a hard time paying for all the food i need.
you are sore because yours recovery last longer than some guy who use whey , because you don’t use liquid protein whit fast resorbation which helps faster recovery .
how many years do you have ?
im 17 if you wanted to know age
im in the workout 2 pattern and i love the program because you might feel bad the next few days,but when you walk out that night,you feel awesome,ill put some numbers up wen im through
