Is it ok to break kre alkalyn 1500 capsules in half and pour the powder from 2 of em into a glass of water and down them that way? Having difficulty swallowing them now. I would be doing this for pre and post workout

edit: instead of the glass of water could you pour the powder in a protein powder shake? (ON whey + water)

Need a routine for my girlfriend.
Shes 18 115lbs and just starting to workout. She knows nothing about lifting and isnt strong (for a girl) at all imo.

Can you help me make a diet/workout plan? She will be going to the gym 5-7 days a week. Main goal to lower bf and build muscle.

Thanks!

Don't need this anymore. Somebody sent link. Thanks.

Hey Raynor!

I haven't been around for a while and I actually let myself go for around 2 months without working out at all. Feelsbadman.jpg

I've gotten chubby and flabby lol, I'm getting back into this and I want to try intermittent fasting.

So, first thing I want to do is cut down 15lbs...

This is what I got from the intermittent fasting calculator

-20/-20 (2548 cal.) TDEE

Protein: 33.8% - 215.5g – 862cal
Carbs: 33.1% - 210.8g – 843cal
Fat: 33.1% - 93.7g – 843cal


I was wondering if you could help me out planning the meals. I hear that a lot of the guys in H&F do 16 hours of fasting and 8 hours eating.

What would the plan look like with the numbers above?

Please give me an example, would this be spread out into 3x meals in that 8 hour period and what should the macros be for each meal?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and if you would even have suggestions for my training that'd be great...I want to focus on the fat loss but to also keep as much muscle and shape

Kre Alkalyn had better results in test subjects during many laboratory studies. Increases of Vo2 max and decreased water retention. Also less kre alkalyn can accomplish the same as more monohydrate.

No they are not bad or a placebo effect. Anyone who says that probably got their information from the FDA lol.

You don't have to cycle it, although I recommend maybe 8 months on with 2 weeks off and then right back into it.

edit:

and no you don't look fat taking kre alkalyn lol

No i don't think this would be acceptable. The price would be much higher that way.

Do this instead:

Do not put it into a shake, take it with water PWO and a shake maybe 15-20 mins after that.

This is the premade plan that happens to fit your GF's description and needs:

I know you already have the link, but I sent that to be double-sure

Hey there.

well based on pure math alone...each meal would be around 72g protein, 70g carbs, and 31g fat.

that would mean that in 3 meals you'd want something like:


Meal 1 - 6 whole eggs w/ peppers and onions + 1 oz cheese + 1 30g protein shake + 4 slices whole grain toast (assuming the toast is around 17-18g carbs per slice)

Meal 2 - 8 oz chicken breast + 2 tbsp olive oil + 2 cups brown rice + 1/2 cup black beans + green salad

Meal 3 - 8 oz 90/10 lean beef + 2 cups pasta + 1 tbsp olive oil + grated romano cheese + 12-15 stalks asparagus


That's a quick approximation of a daily meal plan to try and hit your macros without eating insulin spiking foods while still getting sufficient fiber, etc.

how does white pita bread in a shawarma compare with white rice in terms of carbs?

is it just as bad? should i even be eating it?

first of all i want to say that i eat it because of the chicken + copious amounts of veggies

Low in fiber and not a slow acting carb.

I would replace with whole grain pita or brown rice.
