Its a glucose replacement to regular sugar. It has no weight gaining ingredients, apart from a concentration of calories. Some people use it for restlessness, loss of appetite if I remember rightly.
I wouldn't recommend using it for long term, obviously as its like sugar still.
ALos, when recommending stuff for posters to use, please can you give more information and not just 'use X'.
I think dextrose is a better choice than slim fast because its more calorie dense. You can buy it from asda or the chemist.
lol
I haven't rea the rest of the thread I can't be arsed.
Personally, dextrose is good in my opinion for after weights as you need to replace glycogen stores, maybe a small amount after Cardio too. But more importantly is getting that protein in both pre and post workout!
Here's a crazy tip for you too, if you want gain weight, then EAT BIG.
That's what I found on Google when I was looking up more information about dextrose.
:no:
If you want to gain weight, you need more calories, its not hard is it!
But its true, "to get big, you have to eat big".
As for injecting dextrose, thinking about it now DR's may inject. I am not 100% sure.
I know guys who religiously need to eat 5000-7000 calories a day to gain weight... so it can be done, I'm talking real eating though. Like 8+ Weetabix and a protein shake for breakfast, plus a pint of milk on top. etc.
Bloody Nora, I struggle to eat 2 Weetabix :eek2:
fuck, you can't link to the page. I am not advertising here, but that's the thread about the instructions: here
and I D/Led the pics of the guy and uploaded them here.
holy shit!! first 2 images are "before".
I am skimming through a (NON-BODYBUILDING) forum, not unlike thesite, but there is a thread/manual for dietry and exercises...
Seeing that fitnessroom usage only cost me - let me check - around 20 fricken euroes for A WHOLE SEMESTER as a student. god bless studying in austria.
magnificent.
30 pound are 44€ tho, so chill out and stop trolling :thumb:
What would I do without you, my dear.
the first gym I've been to was when I was still in grammar school, and it was like ~200€ for 10 months, that was always the reason not to keep on training, because when you slack of for a bit, it's not really paying off, and you paid for nothing.
Let's so how much time I'll find, since the first month I will practially sit in uni from morning to late late afternoon.
Yes, yes, I think this is a tad out of 'shape' again as well, but it's just that I pretty much have this guys 'before' physique, and I realize to what he's able, while I struggling in the fitnessroom for ages.
Diet, and the whole surroundings just seem to be more important that I originally thought.
/edit: and I don't know what should look "not natural" on the second one. Every skinny lad doing physical work or A BIT OF training looks like that if he has <12% body fat. That's nothing unusual
