Im running one on the front, really good, im not sure what pads are in mine though.

Paleo diet is very intense! Great if you can stick to it though, you should see some amazing results!

Nope because i use creatine monohydrate which is a mixture of amino acids which are the building blocks to repairing muscle, i avoid that mental pre workout mega pump creatine bullshit that you see advertised. I got my water to msucle ratio measure along with my bodyfat on my recent stat test and although i cant remember the exact figures (because the sheet is at home) it was pretty much spot on. Costco

I started at my local gym 1 and a half years ago, at that time i weighed 10.3 stone and had a jean size of 30reg (so i was a fairly skinny guy) at 21 years old. Through absolute hard work and dedication and a lifestyle change i managed to get myself to after 1.5 years, 12.2 stone with a 30reg waist size and a body fat percentage of 13.1%. Now i know this is probably the complete opposite direction that you are trying to go but i hope from this post you can maybe gain some good tips and advice that will help you out. There are so many bullshit fat loss myths out there you really really want to avoid. What you want to do is (and this may sound crazy) is eat 5 meals a day. You want to split your (im guessing) 3 big meals a day into 5 smaller meals which should be eaten no more than 2-3 hours apart, this forces your metabolism to speed itself up. NEVER and i repeat NEVER cut out carbs, this is a stupid myth and when done does result in rapid weight loss, however your body goes into panic mode and as soon as carbs are re consumed it takes all the fat back and stores excess as it panics that it will be deprived again. Carbs are a staple part of nutrition and are your main energy source, they also provide your body with glycogen which your muscles need to repair correctly after work outs or cv. Avoid refined carbs like white bread, pasta, rice ect. Stick to wholemeal, seeded ect. I actually find them to taste the same if not better, they also contain a great deal of fibre. Also keep your fruit and veg intake to at least 5 a day. NEVER SKIP BREAKFAST. A typical day for me is: 8:30am - 2 scoops of whey protein with 2.5g of creatine, a bowl of alpen and a banana 11am - 4 boiled eggs and an apple 1:30pm - a bowl of brown rice mixed with mixed veg and 3 turkey steaks 5pm - a dry can of tuna and a banana 8pm - 2 scoops of whey protein with 2.5g of creatine, 2 chicken breasts with wholemeal pasta and some kind of sauce and veg possibly before bed a serving of cottage cheese, as cottage cheese is a slow processing protein which works through the night. I probably do take it a little too far as the gym is one of my main hobbies, but i have seen massive results using this diet and heavy training at least 5 times a week, I go to the gym and do heavy weight training 5 times a week without fail and incorporate (HIIT) interval training into at least two of those workouts. The best cardiovascular exercise to loose body fat (proven by many studies) is HIIT (interval training) This for example: 30second sprint then 1min 30sec jog, performed as many times as possible within a 20min period, the reason HIIT is so good for burning body fat is because unlike slow jogging for lets say 3 miles HIIT doesn't take muscle as fuel. I know mines pretty extreme but anyway i hope some of this helped you out!
