regular Milk is better then soy milk!

"The researchers took three groups of young men 18 to 30 years of age – 56 in total – and put them through a rigorous, five-day-per-week weightlifting program over a 12-week period. Following their workouts, study participants drank either two cups of skim milk, a soy beverage with equivalent amounts of protein and energy, or a carbohydrate beverage with an equivalent amount of energy, which was roughly the same as drinking 600 to 700 milliliters of a typical sports drink."-professor of McMaster university.


Researchers from McMaster University found that drinking skim milk after weightlifting outperforms both soy and carbohydrate beverages (similar to sports drinks) in regards to  muscle gain and fat loss. Those who took soy milk saw no loss in fat, whereas drinking milk led to twice as much as consuming carbohydrates.


Milk drinkers gained 40% more muscle mass than soy milk drinkers and 63% more than carbohydrate drinkers. While those drinking carbohydrate drinks lost 1 pound milk drinkers lost 2!

this article was published in the August edition of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. The McMasters team is now looking for the components that attributed to the massive weight loss and Muscle gain.

This is a legit study and can help you get the professional results that you have always wanted out of your exercise routine. See you next time! Peace.

Working Out at an early age

There is a common myth going around that working out can stunt your growth, this is however not true. The entire study behind it is purely sudo science (meaning based on no facts). In fact most professional athletes started lifting weights at a very young age. For example Arnold Shwarzinager started working out when he was in his early teens around 12, 13 and he is over 6'1. In fact lifting weights can actually strengthen the bones which could make you better in sports.

Hopefully by this short post you will decide that in fact that it is better for you to work out. That is in the case that you have been properly instructed on the form of the workout you are doing. Make sure you stretch before every single workout and make sure you do not put unnecessary strain on your joints and ligaments to avoid injury.

The muscle world

Hello,
welcome to my new blog where I will teach people like you the secrets of weight loss, muscle gain, and getting that toned muscular body you've always wanted. I am a student from Canada who has been working out for years and would like to kindly pass my knowledge and experiences onto average people like yourself. I don't consider myself an expert but I have been through enough to help others who were in similar situation such as myself.

Sincerely, Blog Man ;)
