Now onto whey...
This is where i have no knowledge at all so i have a few questions. (as i sit within 10yds of GNC entrance lol) Ive heard it helps gain muscle mass faster, includes an ass load of calories and at the same time also helps get rid of fat or what the body does not use to build muscle. Also i know its a daily doseage type supplement but lets say i dont have time to work out one day and still take the whey. Doesnt it do more harm then good because ill be pushing so many calories into my body that i wont be burning off along with my daily food intake (breakfast and dinner)? and even if i take it on days i work out is it even still effective?

NO-xplode and Nitrix are not caffeine pills, do they contain caffeine? some might, but more importantly they contain vitamins and suppliments your body needs to produce large muscle or keep yourself going for longer. you really have to research what it is your looking for. L-arginine helps blood flow, i take pills for that from GNC which is right next to fish oil which helps your metabolism, you can find these in products like NO-xplode and Nitrix. they use high quantities of everyday vitamins to produce a desired effect, ie, more stamina, rapid muscle growth, faster muscle healing. These things are like the **** you see anna nicole smith trying to sell you, these are things scientifically designed to help your body and workout.
whey which is just powder protein is good for you plain and simple. its recommended you take it three times a day regardless of if you can workout that day or not. you cant go eat a cheeseburger and then take weigh and expect to loose weight. whey which is protein is the basic muscle building, fat burning element in your body (per say). having a high protein intake (like atkins diet) promotes weight lose and also helps yours muscles repair after a workout. you should always have a high protein diet, thats why people take whey.
the main point is you can take all the **** you want but if your not working out regularly and keeping a good diet its not going to do a damn thing.
i hope that helped some?
