This is How I Eat and Train to Build Muscle and Strength
Whenever I do head to the gym, my bag will consist of a few things. Starting with the Weight Belt for when I attempt to smash a cheeky Personal Record. I also generally have at least 2 shakers on me (1) for either Pre-Workout & BCAA and (2) for a Whey Protein for my post workout. If I am only bulking, I like to try a new whey protein from the counter of the gym this tends to excite my taste buds. Additional must haves- Water Bottle, Towel, Journal, and deodorant.
