Hey guys I was reading through one of the other mags and found this info and wanted to get your thoughts on this supplement program and timing.
Wake Up:
3 g Arginine
5 g BCAA’s (4 - Biotest BCAA’s)
1.5 g acetyl-L-carnitine
WHY:
“Take these amino acids on an empty stomach.
Arginine is best known for it’s ability to stimulate growth hormone and nitric oxide production. NO increases blood flow to muscles and optimizes muscle growth.
BCAA’s Promote muscle growth and recovery
L-carnitine enhances fat metabolism aids in muscle recovery and enhances the function of testosterone”
After Shower:
20 g Whey Protein (1 - scoop Isopure)
2 Tbsp Honey
WHY:
“When consuming a fast digesting protein like whey after sleeping you provide an alternate source of amino’s for your muscles to use for fuel and you replenish what your muscles lost. The honey provides a source of carbs to restock your liver and muscle-glycogen levels which stop your body from looking for amino acids to fuel it.”
Lunch:
Multivitamin
Mineral (3 - Biotest ZMA)
1 g Vitamin C
3 g Fish Oils (4 - Biotest Flameout)
WHY:
“Vitamins and minerals need whole food to optimize digestion and uptake. Providing these early in the day allows them to support muscle growth and aid metabolism.
Fish Oils help prevent muscle breakdown, improve muscle growth, joint healing, brain function and aid fat loss”
2 Hours Pre-Workout:
1.5 g acetyl-L-carnitine
WHY:
“taking L-carnitine before you train makes it available to enhance recovery following the workout. It also provides more testosterone receptors for the increase in T-levels that follow a tough work out.”
1 Hour Pre-Workout:
500 mg Tribulus Terrestris (2 -Biotest TRIBEX Tribulus Gold)
WHY:
“Take only on training days as it immediately increases muscle strength by enhancing firing of nerves that stimulate muscle fibers
It also works to help temporarily boost testosterone without causing long term blunting of its levels”
30 Minutes Pre Workout:
3 g Arginine
5 b BCAA’s (4 - Biotest BCAA’s)
WHY:
“Arginine increases blood flow to muscles. Enhanced blood volume delivers more oxygen, nutrients and anabolic hormones to your muscle cells.
BCAA’s act as fuel for your muscles to get through the workout also extra BCAA’s prevents your stored muscle BCAA’s from being broken down.”
Immediately Pre-Workout:
MRP Containing: (3 - scoops Biotest Surge)
20 g Protein
40 g Carbs
5 g Creatine
Immediately Post Workout:
5 g BCAA’s (4 - Tablets Biotest BCAA’s)
30 Minutes Post Workout:
MRP Containing:(3 - scoops Biotest Surge)
20 g Protein
40 g Carbs
5 g Creatine
Dinner:
1 g Vitamine C
3 g Fish Oils (4 - Biotest Flameout)
30 Minutes Before bed:
3 g Arginine
Just Before Bed:
40 g Casein Protein (2 - scoops Biotest Metabolic Drive)
What would you change? ADD or Subtract? Where would you add a fat burner like HOT-ROX?
