Posted by Artie Rome I don't lift heavy because I don't want to get all super swoll and huge. I've lost 20 lbs of fat and gained 30 lbs of muscle in a few months from light weights, high reps and drinking lots of protein shakes. It's all about the protein shakes. Sincerely, OT guy that has never had his body composition checked.


Tell me more about adding 30 lbs. of muscle in a few months.

Studies show that the more meals you intake before a workout, the more your muscular system is relaxed and prepared to take a the heavy strain of lifting.

But again, they are just studies. Everybody's body works different.


I'm no expert, but I've read the best time to work out is when your glycogen levels are at their highest point, which for most people tends to be mid-afternoon.
