Gym And Supplement Discussion

I'm at 74/5kg and 10%BF. I was stuck at 72kg for a while but have started making better progress this time around. I'm probably not going about this the same way as everybody else, I'm gaining muscle mass and and at the same time keeping lean the whole time. Diet only, no supplements, although I'll be going on some protein soon but that will be about all.

I've gone from 70kg to 77kg to 85kg but gained a fair bit of fat from bad dieting while training, I stopped training and dropped my weight down to 70-72 and started training again. So far I've gained 2-3kg and dropped body fat in the process..... I'm doing it over again with a better diet and it's working a lot better for me this time.

Since this is a suppliment thingo I thought I might add what is the greenline or nengun of suppliment sites;

www.professionalwhey.com.au

I haven't found a cheaper place to source WPI. They get the stuff from the only source for quality WPI in the southern hemisphere Fontera's factory in NZ.

Hope that helps. :happy:

Another tip for those who might be looking a tribulus and a variety of other so-called natural hormone boosters;

Most of these snake oils have zinc, manganese and B6 added. These are actually the ONLY active ingredients. There is plenty of data around these nutrients and theraputic ratios. When you weight train and as you get older you need more zinc for hormone production boost.

Cenovis Zinc plus is about $6 for 100 tablets from woolies. Works a treat. :blink:

aldi spec protein store lol.. good to see the "no frills" stuff..

one thing that gets me is.. why would someone under the age of 25 want test boosters? nothing (apart from actual test) will work for you unless you are actually low on test. Waste of time and money.

So you add Magnesium and B6 with those Zinc tabs?

When do you take the Zinc tabs?

    • VCAM doesn't really increase peak power, it just widens the powerband. So if you were giving up power with adjustable cam gears to get better low-end response yes in theory it "increases power" but otherwise not really. Stroker kit might put you in a more efficient region of the compressor map which will get you more power but at say 7000 rpm I'm not sure that much will change. The original HKS GT2530, -5s, and GTX2860R gen 2 are all roughly the same kind of turbo. If you want 600 horsepower those are the turbos you need. So 500 whp. Just expect to spend some quality time trying to figure out intake/exhaust piping. The "twin turbo" pipe is an obvious place to start. Make sure the actuator preload and all of that fun boring stuff is set up correctly. Throw a VCAM step 2 at it if you want good response, 2.8L stroker too. If you're not actually wedded to 500 whp all the time you can barely get there with -7s or Nismo R3 turbos, you just have to run E85 or race gas and run them hard:
    • It's used in the GT-R, GTST/GTT, and Z32 VG30 NA + TT versions. Nissan still makes them new, they're not cheap but they're not expensive either. Personally I would just get something direct-fit and be done with it but I'm not that handy at fabrication.
    • FS5R30A the nav box isn’t it? I did think about those. Any issues? I wondered if the bell housing off an rb30 patrol would work as they are the same gearbox but with a transfer I believe.
