I eat 3 eggs and 3 egg whites every single day, no issues. I can't image 36 though, better get your own chickens!!

Any that says you MUST have a nutrition drink right after a workout is completely wrong. However, there is studies that it may help a very very small amount, but still just your overall nutrition for the day is the important thing.

Protein Powder with very low carbs PB2 Powder Almond Milk

Here is the way I look at it. I try and get in between 0.8 and 1.2 g of protein / body weight per day. Then the rest from fat and carbs. If one is a little higher than the other I don't worry about it, as long as I hit my calories for the day and protein.

Hit youtube, you will find a million recipes to try.

Here is another monster version with PB2 in it. You could dial back the protein powder a little and get it under 500 calories.

I just made a Chocolate Version of this too, it turned out pretty good. I didn't have quite a cup of yogurt left, plus I had to use a mix of things. I was out of Chocolate Protein Powder, and was almost out of Vanilla Protein Powder too. So used a mix of Vanilla and Cookies and Cream. I also added in a little cocoa powder…

Hit youtube, I'm sure you'll find a million of them

It depends. On the heavy day it's 1 - 2 minutes or so between sets. On the lighter days, usually 1 minute. I generally do 4 sets on everything too, so that could be why.

If you like Pizza, look at the bodybuilding.com youtube videos about their Chicken Crust Pizza. My family likes it and the macros are amazing.

Sorry all, I didn't see these posts. I use a hand mixer and mix it for about 3 - 5 minutes. What kind of yogurt are you using? Make sure it's a thick and creamy one. Chobani and Fage are both great.

I just finished Week 3 of this, so far so good. My squat and deadlift seem to be getting stronger. Bench is a little stalled, but I'm not too worried. I will do this for another 9 weeks, then try a different 12 week program, then switch back to this again.

It takes quite awhile to get used to getting up early and working out. Keep trying.

I use the jefit app for all of my sets / exercises.

Look into intermittent fasting. Just have some water / coffee / tea in the morning. Have your first meal late morning or around lunch, and eat dinner later like others said.

I wake up at 5:00AM, drink my vitamins, have some coffee, read work email. Get the kids up at 6:00AM, head out for the Gym around 6:30AM Workout for 1 - 1.5 hrs, get home around 8:00AM and start working again. Favorite, Bench and Deadlifts.

I always use the RockMyRun app, and they have tons of playlists and I just listen to what sounds interesting.

Have you plugged in all your data into MFP? Have you put in your settings that you want to gain weight, maybe 0.5 0.5 lbs or 1lb per week? Are you tracking your food with a scale to make sure you are eating enough?

I make this every morning after I workout 2 Servings Egg Substitute(92g) 3 Whole Eggs 1 Never Any Chicken Italian Sausage 28g Low Skim Mozzarella Cheese 480 calories 5 g Carbs 30 g fat 51 g protein

Every day I make this, pretty simple. 8 oz almond milk(30 calories) 4 oz water 2 scoops chocolate protein powder(mine is 41g each) 1/2 banana(about 61g) tbsp PB2 Powder

Day 1, 2, 4, 5 all done for P.H.U.L, I look forward to my 2 days off, and starting week 2!! Thanks again for pointing this out.

I did the day 2 of P.H.U.L today, and again a great workout. It took a little over an hour, so not too bad.

I did the day 1 of P.H.U.L yesterday, and had a great workout, but man that was long. I'll see how Day 2 goes. Also, taking a couple of days off was great, i was able to do 4 main sets of Bench 250lbs x 5

I always hop on the treadmill for 5 - 10 minutes before I workout to warm up the body a little. Do you have any shoulder problems? I have some arthritis in both shoulders, so that is why I warmed them up, but I could just try the bar and see how it goes.

I could consider doing that. Maybe I'll do some band or 5lb weight warmups for my shoulders before I start. I used to do that before I switched gyms. I just want to make sure my shoulders are warmed up some. I'll try lowering the warmup on my next Chest day and see how it goes.

I'll think about it this weekend. I may try that for the rest of the year. Sunday/Monday, treadmill Tuesday, Wednesday/Thursday, off Friday completely, treadmill Saturday

Are you just doing the 4 days / week then?

For the most part I document in a notebook ahead of time, and then log everything in jefit app while working out. No I'm not following any particular programs, no of any good free ones?
