here is a little extract for you to read

What is whey protein? Whey protein is a pure, natural, high quality protein from cow's milk. It is a rich source of the essential amino acids needed on a daily basis by the body. In its purest form, as whey protein isolate, it contai ...[text shortened]... nd its unique individual protein components.

So as for them not being healthy you are wrong.
How much is this Whey protein thing?

I don't buy groceries hence i'm not in charge of what I eat really. I eat what is cooked you know? πŸ™‚

edit: it's also a preference thing. There are just some things you are not comfortable with. I'm proud to say that I though myself chess. Didn't pay for any instruction or anything. Did it all on my own. Same thing here. Just a preference.

That was just an example. I was just clarifying the rep and set thing.

Okay so I read you guys ideas. Some question about it now.

Say you group the activities and you have 3 groups. Is it better to do all 3 groups, 1 set of each exercise, in 1 day and then take the next day off and then do it all over again.

one word for this and thats OVERTRAINING you are not giving your muscles time to fully recouperate, even if you have had a really hard workout and feel as if you can go again a few days later, I personally dont. Muscles dont grow in the gym them grow when you are resting, this is also why you need 8 hours sleep per night.

Or you do group 1, day 1 do multiple sets and then take 6 days off and then on day 8 you do group 1 again? Because 6 days off seems like a long time.

do one or two muscle groups day 1 with a rest day inbetween, then pick another one or two muscle groups and train on day 3 etc etc, there are many different routines out there to complement your lifestyle and there is never one fixed routine to follow, my first or second post with the routine was only for example of how to train muscle groups together and gives a range of exercises that hits all major muscles in the body.

and thats your perogative, you dont need to follow anyones advice but we are just trying to point out a few basics to get you started.

If you are wanting muscle mass I personally would go with a 40/40/20 diet or Pro/Carb/Fat.

This maybe a little technical for you at this stage so will understand if you ignore the post.

I will say one thing though (as SasQ said) if you dont put fuel in the car the engine wont run.

As for the Whey Protein this is basically what babies have in their bottled foods. (SMA)

Hm...

So day 1 group 1, day 2 off, day 3 group 3, day 4 off etc...

My problem with this is when you do group 1 again it will be on day 8 maybe. That means 7 days off for the group 1 muscles. These seem a like a very long time to me.

I don't work out that hard. Most 2 sets of each and I'm done in 30 minutes.

What about day 1, group1 , day 2 groups 2,day3 grp 3, day 4 group 4, day 5 off and then day 6 back to group 1?

So 4 days rest inbetween for each group? This is basically what I was doing before.

RahimK bro... the best advise was given to you by SASQ.. just do this routine for 6 months and you will see.. it works

You need to excrise the LARGE muscle groups first.. thats the CHEST, BACK, SHOULDERS AND THIGH muscles....,

So multiple sets of each exercise and at least 2 days off before doing the exercise again right?
