The shake's at night thought. The point of the toast is the benefits of protein specifically in the morning.

Protein in toast?

I think 1 whole egg + 3 egg whites would be a way better option for you.

Peanut Butter, toast is just a delivery method.

I'm doing this at work, so eggs aren't an option (nor is a morning protein shake really, unless I do it at home, which is iffy given my timing).

The official Dids thread gets much more traffic than mine [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Anyway, thanks Dids. Looks good, and keep up the burn!

Dids,

Agree that freeweights are best whenever possible. The reason, which another poster alluded to, is that they improve your balance and 'core' stability, and force you to integrate the way you use and develop your muscles. I started out as an all-machine guy but was converted to freeweights and it's def better. The other upside is you can get some weights to use at home if you can't get to the gym for some reason or want to do a light followup the next day.

Also agree that back/biceps, chest/triceps and legs/abs is a great breakdown for lifting, for the reasons above.

Great to hear you're having success and good luck. I should really make a thread like this and start going to the gym more often, I've been really bad since moving to the city.

So you can make toast at work but you can't access any water or milk to put into a shaker bottle with protein powder you've brought in with you? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

The smoothie I make needs a blender and frozen fruit, but that is an idea.
