ON gold and muscletech dont have egg and they are the best proteins in the market. So i guess vegetarian proteins are as good as any :P

 

ON is kinda bad nowadays, Muscletech, Nature's Best and BPI are good now

im still using ON and its as good as before for me. Any particular reason you feel its bad now?

I was using it for 6 months, No Visible Gains. ON HydroBuilder is good...not Gold Standard. Its good for maintaining. Thats all.

I had a plaster on my left foot for a month, and now it has atrophy. The thigh is fine, but the calf (and any foot muscles below that) have almost halved in size. The foot is now flat. What can I do about this?

The bone is still healing now.

What is the best way to improve upper body strength? I can run for as long as I want without much fatigue and have strong calfs and thighs, however my upper body strength is pretty much meh......... i can not even do 5 pushups without severe fatigue and even hit the gym for 3 months non stop without much fruit. What can I do to increase upper body strength? Does my vegetarian diet have anything to do with this. Also I am pretty slim. 5'11 and weigh 65 Kgs

Pull ups and push ups afaik. Ask the trainer at your gym. :P

Do PLP to improve upper body strength. Start with 1 pull up, 1 push up and 1 lunge on the first day if that's all you can muster.

 

Then increase the count by 1 everyday. The trick is that you don't have to do it continuously. If by day 4 you can still only do 1 pull up at a time, spread out your routine to do it 4 times during the day.

 

It's really helpful and doable. Even better if you can convince a friend to do it and keep each other in check

Any option with On or Muscletech?

 

My current weight is 76Kg height 5' 9.5"

 

I DOnt' want to go below 75 or above 80

 

Sorry for the late reply. Was busy with festivities.

 

Next time, buy Muscletech and see the difference. I myself changed from ON to MT (Nitro tech series) and saw results quickly.
