was going to start working out again and just wanted some advice on some stuff

my schedule for one, I was going to do this

mon: legs/shoulders/triceps/abs
tue: cardio
wed: pecs/biceps
thu: cardio
fri: back/traps/abs
sat: cardio
sun: rest

I want a schedule with losing weight and building muscle at the same time
I also was going to take GNC's 100% whey protein
taking that should I only take it after working the muscles?
or should I also take it after cardio too?
also what are the foods I should be eating for breakfast and dinner for a schedule like this?
thank you


legs/shoulders/triceps/abs is way too long of a day. I would recommend going at least 4 days a week to split it up better. Please see these plans below:

Hypertrophy Plan


Use whey protein ALWAYS post workout but also you can drink it before bedtime, first thing in the morning, or as a protein supplement during the day. Do not use it as a meal replacement though. (to do that you'd have to add some extras to it, like fruit and peanut butter or milk, etc) - Yes take it after cardio, but wait about 20-30 minutes before you do.

Hey raynor, Im on your keto plan atm
and i was wondering if there was another way i could lose weight/fat while keeping muscle (besides keto)

could u give me some examples? Im just wondering , because id like to try dif methods

BUT, most importantly , i miss carbs and other foods , Let me know pls



Hey there.

Unfortunately KETO is really the only way to go for maximum strength and muscle retention while cutting. If you want to do a solid cut without jeopardizing your gains, you will want to stick with keto. Other cutting routines cause way too much muscle loss.

I would highly recommend these tips below to help you with keto (to keep from going insane from lack of carbs).


1. Diet soda is the savior of all saviors - it will help a lot.
2. Peanut butter (try Naturally More or Power Butter) - this when added to cottage cheese or celery really helps curb that craving a lot.
3. Stevia - add this sweetener to whatever you want and it adds virtually no digestible carbs without harmful chemicals - great stuff!
4. Go hog wild on carb/cheat days to the point where you absolutely do NOT want to eat that sort of food for days - this also helps.
5. Visualize and keep yourself motivated. You can do it - mind over matter!

So far I've seen progress in every part of my body and my least improved part of my body is definitely my chest.

Can you give me a split to isolate just the chest and get it up to par with the rest of my body?


I recommend keeping up your EXISTING plan, but adding chest to another workout day (separated at least 2-3 days apart). So if your chest day was monday, you would hit it again on weds or thurs.

On that second day of chest, you are going to focus dramatically on the pump and hypertrophic training. Here is what you will do:


For every set, start out with lower weight and do a warm-up set of 15 reps. After the warm up set, grab some medium weight (what you can do for about 12 reps on your own). Do as many reps as you can, fail, hold the weights and go again until failure. Once you have failed the second time this is now the conclusion of SET 1. After set 1, set 2 will be the same fashion, but with heavier weight. You will then do a 3rd set with the same exact style (you should be around 4-5 reps now max). After the 3rd set, cut the weight in half, and go until failure (as many reps as you can - fail - and do it again). You will do these 4 total sets (plus the 1 warmup set).

Peform the following exercises using that method:


1. Bench Press
2. DB Flies (incline bench)
3. Cable Crossovers
4. Decline Bench DB Presses

that will be an extra 20 sets of chest added to a non chest day. If you keep this up, you will start building the chest to where you want it.

I would advise butter instead.

Buttery eggs are amazing in my opinion.
