You need more Protein

October 20, 2010

Here’s a concession I’m willing to make:
If you are on Anabolic Steroids there is a chance that you DO need an increased amount of protein in your diet.
After all, with one a good round of Anabolics you could possibly gain more skeletal muscle mass in 8 weeks then most men do in 80 weeks.
In fact, when you think about men in their 30’s, 40’s and beyond, a cycle of anabolic steroids may add more muscle then they would otherwise see in the rest of their lifetime.
So really, it’s reasonable to suggest that the nutritional needs may be different for people who are ‘on’. (i.e. they may need significantly more protein)
The other issue with Anabolic Steroid use that may necessitate higher protein intakes is that it is a situation of FORCED muscle growth.
Meaning your muscles are going to grow regardless (even if you are not weight training)…which makes me wonder:

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
