You don’t have to be a gym rat to appreciate what certified personal trainer and Men’s Health cover model Avedon has to say in this sensible, easily customizable approach to nutrition and fitness. Unsurprisingly, Avedon’s technique boils down to eating a series of small meals throughout the day, emphasizing lean meats, whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables. Some recipes, most notably protein shakes, call for protein powder and/or other nutrients requiri (more…)

Same question again…but i think it was misunderstood slightly.
I have thin calves genetically. They have become slightly thicker with muscle after two seasons of both winter and spring track. I have also been wearing ankle braces- that were thick and heavy that might’ve added some bulk to my leg. I will not be practicing over the summer much and i will take on swimming instead, or walking around. My legs are still nice, but just not as slim as they used to be.
How long would it take for the muscle from running that i don’t use as much anymore to slowly leave? And how can i speed the process of making my legs leaner? Should i diet because of i am less active now and i could return to my daily life?
I heard from a friend who did several sports that every sport she took made her legs thicker but after a few months of inactivity, her legs became slimmer- and not full of fat..just less bulky. Anyone know from experience about the changes in between seasons?

i notice i am more prone to muscle injury these days. i cycle for sports and i injured my muscle two times on the same spot. is there any food, supplement good for muscle to prevent injury.

or SHOULD I even have one?
I don’t get enough protein in my diet or eat foods that help my muscles form/recover after a 90 minute intense running session.
Should I eat a cliff bar or luna bar or myoplex or something?
Will I still tone my legs even if I have one?
Will it affect my weight loss goals?

im only 15 im 5’11 i weigh 200 lbs but i can bench 265 and incline 250. im trying to gain alott more muscle before next season my coach also wants me to gain about 20-30 pounds of muscle since ill be pretty small for a d-tackle. so i was looking for any good workouts i can do at home? i have a bar with up to 90 pounds and i have the perfect push up system. i also want to know if creatine or any sports supplements will help? also i want to build my chest muscle fast to so any ideas on that will be great also!

I am 5’11″ and weigh 165. I have a 32″ weist. Is that unhealthy? I am trying to get my stomach tighter and bulid more upper body muscle. Are there any good supplements to help speed up the process. I just started taking Mega Men Sport. I want to look good before summer roles around

i dont have a job therefore i cant afford all the super expensive whey proteina nd supplements that are like 50-60 bucks….and my parents arent supportive of it either since im not in a school sport of any kind and i wouldnt take 1 now…since im in 12th grade.
but do you absolutely need them to gain mass?? i know you can just eat like 5-6 times a day with high protein foods…but i cant exactly raid the fridge for everything that has protein in it lol.
i have friends who are going from like 145 lbs to 165 lbs of muscle mass and its kind of getting me discouraged (i weigh like 145 and bench like 195-200)
so are there any other solutions/ways to gain mass?

I am looking to gain lean muscle, not really bulk up and gain weight, I just want to tone what I have…
I’m taking whey protein and Mega Men Sport now and want to add something else…
Any ideas? If so, what’s a good regimen for it?
What’s the most effective schedule to take whey and other supplement?
**Please only reply if you have a product to suggest. I understand that diet is the only way and supplements aren’t the way…I want to work it into my routine, thanks anyway**
