Why do so many people think buying/using whey is like using steroids or something 
Got a myprotein delivery today at the office, 20kg of Whey , even the courier asked me if these 'chemicals' are for me lol

Yeah man protein shakes are amazing! You'll put on at least a stone of hard muscle in no time!
Lol, like my sister seeing me drinking a shake. "You want to be careful with that stuff" I'm like shut up it's only protein powder.

So they are not worth it i guess..
Hey..you cant hit on shakes man. I used to have one every night before bed...and one post workout. Since i stopped training...Ive still been drinking them just cos I like em!
I know thats sad...but I sooooo miss my 10pm chocolate shake for supper
Better be careful then as the wife says i'm too big as it is
, might just have em on lifting days (5 of em haha) but i'm just under 16st again weighed mesell last night and am 15st 12lb all time heaviest i've been is 16st 3lb, so with protein shakes might add another half stone... but then to cover it i'll have to start sommat else.Just wish i could get my arms bigger i swear i have a genetic deficiency in em they are stuck at 17.5, trying everything even loading my home dumbell with 65kg and doing tricep press from chest not doing bugger all apart from giving me better lifting on the bench
Protein shakes will have to sort it out grr

Dude he was taking the ****
Gonna use incline barbell bench for my ME exercise now instead of barbell. Had really good results last time I dropped BB bench for a good run, so hopefully this'll be the same.
I see you're back training bro (esn) - hows it going?

First week back after 6 months off.... things are feeling pretty tender and painfull atm, just about to hobble off to the gym now to train legs lol!

70KG x 2
80KG x 1
90KG x 1
100KG x 1
110KG x 1
115KG x 1
117.5KG x 1

Applying the 5x5 method thats proved very succesful for my bench, to my deadlift. Aiming for 190KG before I go home for easter. Though I'll be happy if my current 1rm(185KG) becomes a regular thing.
