thanks for you help |
Get a weightgainer. and eat alot of carbs |
wats specifically is a weightgainer |
a shake that you drink when you workout
for example,
http://pics.drugstore.com/prodimg/208967/200.JPG
get one thats 1k cal. +
my cousin takes one thats i think 1200 cal. per serving and i think he's gained 5+ lbs already. |
honestly a 1200 calorie gainer is overkill, your gonna sh%$ it out anyway, and its probebly maltodextrin and whey concentrate (think sugar and low grade protein) cyto gainer at 580 is fine, add some milk, peanut butter, etc etc and you will have a lot of quality calories. |
really ? that sucks. haha, well my cuz took cyto gainer before that and he never really gained any weight, but the cookies n cream was fkcn good ! |

yeah, I really like NO-Xplode but sometimes it got me a little jittery half way through a workout
I was going to get Superpump originally, but you get 10 less servings for $10 extra. And I've heard really good stuff about Shock Therapy. I ordered the free sample of Superpump 250 though. I
ll try them out later today or tomorrow, and post my results.
Also, has anyone tried White Flood, seems like it works, but it's filled with stimulants?

Shotgun is what you take when you're body starts to become immune to NO-Xplode.
NO still works good for me, I can feel it wear off little by little though.
Redline is a good thing too.
Its a liquid and you only need 4 oz. (comes in 8 oz bottles)
As for those who stopped using NO-Xplode.
You guys that you're suppose to use it for about 6 weeks, stop using it for 6 weeks, and then start up again so your body doesn't build up a tolerance.
If you do it right like you're suppose to, theres real no reason to hop off a pre-workout supp that works effectively.

I'm doing a 16week marathon workout and today was the day of the week i hit the most miles and i got 10 miles. By the time i hit my 10 miles my neck was aching and my shoulders because of the jogging motion. My leg was perfectly fine and so was the breathing and such. Today was to get 10 miles but I felt like i could've continue , you know just to push myself but my body was aching and it was really annoying. Any advice or do you think its just something minor and just jog it off ?

yeah, NO-Xplode still works for me, but its a bit out of my price range this time around so I thought I'd try out a new product. I should be getting my Xtend and Shock Therapy tomorrow, can't wait to try them out

Personally, I take them post workout, and sometimes I'll have one for breakfast or as a MRP.

how strong is your core?
if youre new to distance running its like anything else, it take a while for your muscles to get used to the motion...yes even upper body.
when i started running I would get cramps in my biceps randomly...now thats compltely gone
what marathon are you doing?
and more importantly...what plan are you following?
any specific ?s please feel free to PM me, i'd gladly help with what I can

"better" is in the eye of the beholder.
calorie wise you burn more running/walking than biking
2 miles wont add much to your "thighs" (please be more specific tho, thighs arent a muscle) and they'd probably get cut up, not necessarily bigger.

It should say on the container; look for Directions
The protein shake i take says to take it ONE HOUR BEFORE, ONE HOUR AFTER AND PRIOR TO BEDTIME
doesnt say to drink during but it says to take a protein bar during the workout.

You gotta find the good deals son! lol
I got one of mine on GNC.com when they were having a sale and got it the NO and a mixer for under 40 shipped.

I always take mine afterwards as well. Though most say take before, after and before you go to sleep. Who the fk can afford that? lol
If you're gonna take once or twice a day, definitely do it after you workout, and if you can, before you sleep.

I would consider my core to be stronger than the average dude at the gym, i've been lifting for over 3 years and jogging for over 2 years but i never tried a marathon workout. I'm training for a full 26.2 mile marathon and I'm following a 16 week program but I'm going to alter it and make it more difficult and longer because I'm going to do the marathon for next year with a couple of friends and they have catching up to do. So its more beneficial for me since I have enormous amount of time to train and I can push myself so I am well more prepared than others and do really good.
Jogging isn't new to me so this is my 2nd week and I'm on week 5 of my workout.

^^do you have an shorter race times? also do you have a goal marathon time?
that plan makes it seem like you are running every day, is that the case?
i dont like that workout because it doesnt tell what days to do what run, also at what speeds.
http://www.halhigdon.com/marathon/inter1.html
i used this plan for my first marathon, and was easily able to finish (but not in a great time). luckly your marathon is next year...spend some time now working on a solid base
...after i did that plan i stepped up to this one for my 2nd and 3rd marathons, peaking at 55 miles a week
http://www.roadtoboston.com/djapps/trainingPlans/viewPlan/5/startDays/?displayStartDay=6&planStartDay=6&unitsType=Miles
now i'm doing a diff plan written by the same guy but peaking at 70 miles a week.
to get the base you will build off you could use one of the plans above (or by using the mileage in your plans and following the Long run on the weekends, middle long run in the middle of the week model)
you dont have to follow it exactly, i do my long runs on mondays normally, and sometimes wednesdays..but the idea is that your fresher for the long rungs by doing the midlong run in the middle of the week, and a slower recovery run the day before
after having a solid base 16/18/24 weeks away from the race start the specific plan of your choice
Long Runs cannot be over looked, they are the most important runs of the week, and most of the time they will be a big chunk of your weekly mileage also they DONT HAVE TO BE FAST, most people recommend doing them 10-20% slower than your desired marathon pace. you still get the physiological gains but recover quicker.
do some speed work, maybe a tempo run or a desired marathon pace run every other week.
have you changed your diet since you've started running more?
http://www.amazon.com/Advanced-Marathoning-Pete-Pfitzinger/dp/0736034315
good book with some very good training plans.
also this website....http://mysite.verizon.net/jim2wr/ covers a lot of FAQs and random things you may want to know.
also, its really far away. but dont skip the taper at the end of the plan, it really works and is REALLY needed
