How much was that, and how big is it? Just curious since I don't ever trust a word one of those meatheads at GNC says.

For the record, you never need 3 scoops of that. Your body can't even absorb 60g of whey protein at one time. It'll turn half of that into fat.

As far as arm pain, ice it and see how it is in a couple days. Could just be your body reacting to something it isn't used to. Prepare to be sore at first...it takes a lot longer to recover from workouts when you first start, but that time goes down quickly as you continue.

Cost $50 and it was 3lbs.

Pain in my arm has gone away.

Unfortunately I'm at my mom's until a week and change so no working out.  Will likely have to just concentrate on eating good foods except on my cheat day which is Sunday (go go gadget football)!

I'd be careful with the pain in your arm after curls. A lot of golfers elbow is due to lifting weights rather than from playing golf.

That's how I got my golfer's elbow about two years ago. I am over it now but it's pain in the a$$ having golfer's elbow. (No pun intended)

Yeah, I just think I tried to start with too much weight and strained myself as I forced myself to finish it.  Definitely going to do less weight on curls while still having it be challenging.

As for this protein talk, I'm not getting anywhere near as much protein in a day that I need.  The closest I've gotten to my goal of 193g is 155g.  Never realized how tough it is to get a lot of protein in a diet.

Man, that's why I don't trust GNC. For future reference, ON 100% Whey is $59 for 5 lbs.

That's what I get for wanting it before the holidays, haha. I will say, I got the vanilla flavor and it's quite good.

Ha, nice.

Mike's a good dude to look up to as someone starting out. Should have seen him a year and a half ago...looked like he'd never lifted a weight before. (Sorry Mike, I just mean you're inspirational lol)

Thanks. I lost 50lbs from last September to May of this year just working out with kettlebells and tracking my calories. Then I wanted to get stronger and "repair" my metabolism so I started learning barbell stuff and eating more. I'm still very much a beginner when it comes to this stuff but have learned from some smart people.

Ha, thanks. You probably saw me at my heaviest, I was 220lb. And you're right, never did any lifting, some in college but that was just dumbbells.

220 was your heaviest? I think 225 is the lightest I have been in the last 10 years, haha. What are you at now?

I got down to 167, and I'm now 176. I'm probably going to gain a couple more pounds and then get back on the diet in mid February.

As usual on Mondays, I trained legs.

I always start my workouts with 20 push-up but using my fists and 12 pull-ups.

Then did

- Leg press

- Leg extension

- Hip abductor

- Stiff legged deadlifts

- Calves

Quick session cause I train leg twice a week.

I bought a 10 pound sledgehammer & then grabbed a free tire from craigslist.

I just hit the damn tire until i get tired.

So far my favorite workout ever.

Do you practice your "lag" while you are doing it?

You never wanna develop a flip in your sledgehammer swing...
