Syntha 6 or ON Gold Standard?

Gold Standard, you get 25 more servings per 5lb container (73 scoops vs 4 so you get a better bang for your buck, plus it has less fat and carbs

 

[luckyluchiano]

I hear Syntha 6 is like Muscle Milk, taste good because its damn near a milk shake

Thanks, guys! I'll give Gold Standard a go. How does the taste compare to Syntha 6 and Muscle Milk?

Nice job illest. But not a channel I'll subscribe too.

Needs to be more entertaining.

The other fitness channels are successful due to them giving advice. Some comedy.

Yours is just following your gym workouts.

You wanted us to critique so there you go.

Any Chocolate n mocha cappuchino

are you hitting your calorie goal for the day? If you are you should be gaining weight. Thats how thermodynamics work. My guess is that you're not getting in enough calories. In terms of your macros, First ensure you're getting enough protein then fill in therest of your cals how you see fit depending on your budget preferences etx

I'm at 4,275 calories a day. My macros break down like this 453.5g protein (I believe this is waaaaay too high) I upped my protein shake consumption as a way to increase my calories but in turn obviously that took my protein totals through the roof. My carbs are at 376.5 and fats 102.5g. I talked to someone else and they suggested cutting back on protein and adding in more carbs with more sandwiches and pasta. What are everyone else's thoughts? Any suggestions are appreciated since I'm trying to gain weight and don't wanna keep going around in circles here.

Jelly, wish I could eat 4000+ calories a day. I'm a fatty at heart and love food.

 

[ag 47]

Don't argue on taste ...it's all subjective anyways. Quality of protein/amount of servings is where it's at

 

[dauldierce]

4k calories..... Sheesh.

What are you eating.

And how many shakes do u take per day.

No need for more than 1 per day. I only take them after I workout.

But I wanna know what your eating. Just curious.

LOL word, song gotta be a pro bodybuilder eating that much. Avg bulk I see for normal dudes are 2800-3500.

Anyone have any opinions on Dymatize ISO-100 100% Whey Isolate (http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/dymatize/iso-100.html)?

This is what I used before, but now that I'm on a cut, I'm trying to limit my calories so I haven't taken any protein shakes, but I most likely will start. About the same price as ON ($68 for 5lbs) for 81 servings.

106 cals
1g Fat
0g CHO
24g Protein

thoughts?

 

[dauldierce]

I had a 2lb of the rich chocolate, VERY good very rich coco taste. You can get 10lbs of the elite isolate for like 86, only about 6-10 more calories.

Does anyone know of this 5 x 5 thing I keep hearing about. They say it is good for beginners since beginners cant afford to isolate muscle groups. I've been thinking of looking into it what you guys think?

iLLest, peeped the video, looks good so far, and any motivation is good motivation when it's bettering yourself, props sir.

To the users using myfitnesspal, add me le14, I'd like to see how everyone else is doing in regards to meals, plus with more people as friends, it'll help me be accountable and it adds to the motivation factor.

 

[eracism]

Can someone tell me what exercises one would do in this little bench? They have this at my gym and I don't know what it's for... it's non-adjustable. I just use a regular bench for dumbell exercises so I was wondering what you can do on this ****** bench. If I sit on it, I don't even think my legs would be at a 90 degree angle so I am confused.

^^ DB shoulder press or DB seated curls or DB over head triceps
