When you work out, you're actually causing your muscles to stress and tear. After the workout is the most important part, I understand, because your muscles are rebuilding. That's when your body needs the proteins the most and will uptake the most into rebuilding your body. Try for 2 weeks to eat 1g of protein per lb of bodyweight, with starting the first week taking protein twice a day immediately and one hour after exercise, then the second week adding a glass right before bed. See if that helps you.

I can't wear an old work Polo shirt anymore because my biceps and triceps are too big :eek3: :reechy: (But, the sleves weren't too huge to begin with)
