Hi everyone... I just signed up here because I have been working out for years and just can't seem to reach my goals as far as appearance.... maybe i can seek out some advice here.... I hope to!! I've been working out off & on since I was about 15, but here for about 5 years I've been working out hard core and I'm pissed because I don't look the way I want to. I take glutemine and Amino Acids the only thing I'm bad about is the protein shakes. I don't know if breastfeeding has to do with anything but any advice would be much appreciated.
Erm, yes, breastfeeding requires a phenomenal amout of calories.
Protein shake, only really necessary after training.
STATS:
weight - 116, height 5'2" , bodyfat% - around 16%
goals -- my main goal is to be more cut everywhere, build calves (my calves are really small) and if possible build my glutes up, you know ...bigger
Nelson Montana has some awesome routines for calves, the lads swear by them. I will see if I can get him to post it here.
Calves are one of those genetic things, you either have the muscle fiber type that they just GROW, or you really have to work at them.
- I work out 4-6 days a week and I will be honest I don't do much cardio at all...after I had my baby 6 months ago I started doing aerobics twice a week and felt I lost too much weight so i stopped.
Have you ever trained less? Like three days, more rest?
Muscle grows when you are NOT training.
- I eat real healthy, alot of proteins... my eating schedule consists of eating small meals every 3 hours I mostly eat eggs in the morning with some form of meat (turkey bacon/ turkey sandwich meat) I cook alot of chicken, Tilapia, Turkey mignon, brown rice and always some type of vegetable..mostly green beans, broccoli, carrots and green beans.
Have you worked out your calories and macronutrients?
- NO medical concerns... thank the Lord!!
