Hi I'm Lee Labrada, your lean body coach and welcome to this weeks ask Lee.
This week's Ask Lee question is from Mike Peter, of Atlanta Georgia. Mike writes:
QUESTION: " Lee, Both my teenage son and daughter are getting into bodybuilding. What are the best and safest supplements for teens?"
ANSWER: Well Mike, as a father of three boys, I have been through the teenage years, and recognize your concerns about choosing safe supplements for your teenagers as they start weight training.
My advice is to keep it as natural as possible, because safety comes first. Unfortunately there are many supplements on the market which are shady at best. Stick with the tried and true supplements which include a high quality protein supplement and a multivitamin.
And remember that no supplement is going to take the place of good nutrition. Make sure that your youngster is eating a well-balanced diet that includes plenty of protein from lean meats such as chicken, fish, and lean cuts of beef, and plenty of complex carbohydrates, including sweet potatoes, oatmeal, potatoes, and rice and bean for example. For more information on a well-balanced athlete's diet, be sure to see my nutrition videos on the Labrada UA-cam channel, and my articles on Labrada.com
Once your youngster is eating a well-balanced diet, you can add a protein supplement taken in the form of a shake 1 to 2 times per day, along with a multivitamin taken with breakfast. We've had really good results with using Labrada's lean pro eight protein powder, as it contains high quality whey protein and has the earned the highest rating for its taste. If a teenager is going to use a protein supplement, it better taste good otherwise they're not going to use it.
Two protein shakes per day can add up to 80 g of protein to the diet. Because most teenagers don't eat enough whole food proteins in their normal daily routine, the protein shakes can be very valuable for helping them to recover from weight training exercise, and providing plenty of building blocks for their young muscles. The multivitamin will give them nutritional insurance that they're getting the vitamins and minerals they need for growth.
Finally, once your teenage athlete has been weight training and consistently consuming their protein shakes, you can add some creatine monohydrate to their daily diet, and this will assist with recovery and strength.
Creatine is naturally produced in the body every day. A Creatine monohydrate supplement is safe as long as there are no pre-existing kidney problems, and the athlete stays well hydrated. It's important to drink lots of water when you are weight training anyway. Creatine has a history of being safe and effective, and I have given it to my own teenage boys since they were 15 years old. 2 to 3 g per day is plenty, taken with a meal.
So there you have it a safe and effective supplementation program for teenagers. I hope that you found this video helpful

I'm 16 years old, weigh 162 and I'm tryna gain weight and muscle for football season. I go to the gym 5 times a week. Is creatine monohydrate safe and if so, how many grams a day.
Hey Jonathan, creatine monohydrate from Labrada Nutrition is safe to take when you're a teenager, however we would recommend that you first understanding your total calorie intake for the day, along with the amount of protein, carbs, and fats your eating roughly per day. Our whole food nutrition is the foundation for performance, if we do not have balanced nutrition plan no supplement will help you as much as it could with a balanced diet. Hope this helps explain things, at your age you would ideally be consuming roughly 20 calories per ideal body pound per day as a growing young man. Wish you all the best with your fitness goals.

Hello guys

Hi im 17 i take whey protein

Omg! You are so honest. If this was some other bodybuilders, they would give a list like this.
-whey protein
-casein protein
-bcaa
-glutamine
-l-carnatine
-creatine monohydrate
-pre-workout
and the list would go on
Thanks for the vid Lee!
Guhan Seyon thank you for the kind comment. The Labrada Nutrition team and I realize that supplements are supplemental to a great whole food nutrition plan. Supplements work when used properly in conjunction with whole foods. Supplements where not designed to fill the gaps we are missing from whole foods, which we often try and do. Thank you again for the comment, all the best Guhan.
I'm 16 I train a lot 6 days a week is creatine safe? Or it is unnecessary at this age?
Hi sir, i'm working out almost 2 years now (aproximetally 1.5 year) and i use BCAA's,creatine monohydrate,whey protein and HMB, (im using the bcaa'a, and the hmb 1 week now), im using whey and creatine 1 year.Should i stop anything of these? can they be harmfull for me in the future? Thanks
+jason virtuspro Thanks for the question, we don't feel it's necessary to stop any of those supplements. At the same time some forums and online resources will point out taking a break from Creatine Monohydrate every 8-12 weeks may ensure the body keeps producing it's own PCr levels. So that is the only caveat, taking a break from Creatine only may be beneficial every 8-12 weeks of supplementation. Hope this answers your question, all the best.
I had used you mass gainer, and I got outstanding results in just one month
hi lee, I am 16 year old turning 17 in two months . i have been traning on and off since last 4 months using optimum nutrition 100% whey protien and a good diet . i am 76 kgs and 175cm , wanted to start pre workout suppliments !!! is it safe for me to take suppliments like amino energy and creatine together before workout . plzz help. advance thanks
Hey Syed, yes all Labrada products are safe to consume with other supplements. Thanks for your interest in Labrada Nutrition.
I'm a 14 year old that works out quite a bit, now I'm a big boy though. I weigh in to about 350, don't be mistaken though I only have about 20% body fat. I'm about to enter highschool and I want to play varsity as a freshman which is a hard task so I'm trying to step up my lifting game to give me that extra edge what do I do? what all should I take?
+Dillon Carpenter At 14 and as big as you are, you don't need any supplements at this point, just good whole food nutrition. It sounds funny but your Mom was always right, make sure you are eating your veggies along with your protein and carbs because the veggies will help make sure your body utilize all the possible nutrients it can from your energy producing foods. To give yourself an edge, training is going to be the key, and at the Highschool level quickness is an asset. Try throwing in some HIIT training sessions along with your weight lifting to help with your reaction time and speed of recovery, hope this helps, all the best.
hi I'm 14 and I play soccer/football every day, I'm skinny and want to gain weight mass. What would be the best supplement for me?
BTW I'm from England
Hey Buba, if you have had a chance to read other questions below you will
find very similar questions already answered. That being said, at 14
your focus should be on whole foods, if you already know how many grams
of protein, carbs, and fats you are consuming per day, along with eating
veggies at each and every meal, then yes looking into supplements like a
whey protein can help with our overall muscular development. We do
recommend that you start with whole food nutrition first, there's little
benefit to adding in whey protein if we don't already know how many
grams of protein we are consuming per day. Also we recommend that you try and aim for 18-20 calories per ideal body pound per day. If you want to weight 180 pounds that would be roughly 3,200 - 3,600 calories a day. Hope this helps, wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
I found this very helpful as someone who has always been worried about the risks that can come with supplementation. Great video!
+Colwyn Zephyr Great to hear you enjoyed the video, all the best this week.
Creatine really that's for over 18 years of age..
I am 16 and am trying to put on some weight. I've been working on my diet as well as working out. is the supplement you mentioned in the video a good choice for me? Thanks!
Brady, thanks for the question, if you are not gaining any body mass
with your current diet, you really need to increase the food until you
do. Gaining about 1 lb a week is the most you will want to shoot for. Be
sure to keep your meals balanced, and ideally having a fruit or veggie
with every meal. Be sure to try and consume around 1 gram of protein and
2 grams of complex carbs for every pound you want to weigh. Basically
eating a whole potato size complex carb and an 8 oz extra lean piece of
meat 4 times a day with veggies will go a long way. If you are still
having trouble, throwing in 40 grams of whey protein could help for
sure. Wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
im 15 years old turning 16 in 2 months, my mom wants me to stop taking protien and creatine because she says im still a kid and she says that is not for anyone under 18, any help on hoe to convince. her and the doctor that its okay? cause i go to the doctor in 15 days and shes gunna tell the doctor that its bad for me, help?
+jklspicyweener We would allow your Mom to ask the Doctor. His opinion is very important. They key to growing is to consume around 1 gram of protein per body pound per day. So all you need to do is talk to your Mom about helping you make sure you are reaching your protein goals. For a if you weigh 150 pounds - 150 grams of protein a day will work great. A 8 oz chicken breast or turkey breast will have around 45-50 grams of protein as a simple reference. Hope this helps, your mom is only trying to do what is best for you.
hey! im 16 years old and im doing regular fitness training but im under weight can i take mass gainer or protein supplements?
A mass gainer or protein powder could be beneficial. However everyone should start with whole food nutrition. We recommend anywhere from 3-5 meals a day coming from whole foods. With the goal of gaining body mass we suggest around 20 calories per ideal body pound per day. So if you do not know how many calories you eat in a day, we suggest starting there, once you have a rough idea on how much food you are eating you can then determine which protein powder will fit your needs best. First and foremost making sure you are consuming extra lean protein, complex carbs, veggies and fruits, along with healthy fats each meal should be your main goal starting out.
I'm 15 , I need to cut weight . What is the best fat trimming supplement for me ? I weigh 180 need to go back to 165
Hey Eric, at 15 you do not need a single supplement. You just need to eat healthy food choices. Make sure every meal has a handful of dark colored veggies, and extra lean protein the size of your palm... Also try and stay away from all soda, and fried food. You will easily reach your goal if you can follow these few guidelines. Wish you all the best with your goals.
Im eating healthy and i want to add whey Protein to my diet. You said take Multi vitamins in the morning. Which vitamins would you recommend and protein shake
Etim, we would of course recommend our Labrada Nutrition products, here's the multi vitamin - www.labrada.com/store/GN-0146.html. We have many options on protein powders, here's one of our top sellers - www.labrada.com/store/LeanPro8.html wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
Hi lee im 17, 5 months to 18 can i take serious mass now?
Cuz i wanna get some weight and i eat food well too.
At 17 consuming a weight gaining powder to help reach your calorie goals for the day can work well. Be sure to consume at least 2,000 calories from whole foods before adding in a weight gaining powder. Wish you all the best with your fitness goals, this is not Lee, just an employee of Labrada Nutrition.
Sir,i had an appendix operation about 1 year ago, can i do supplementation and heavy lifting.? Thanks.
+Arslan Arshad The only person who should answer this question is the doctor you performed the surgery for you. Sorry we couldn't be more help, all the best.
Hello im a 15 year old male and i take protein powder in the morning i just bought creatine when is the best time to take also its called creatine x3 just woundering if its safe and what does it do
+maxpop39 creatine is a nutrient found naturally in your muscles, and by supplementing creatine, you will saturate your muscles with it. Because the aim is to saturate, the dose timing is fairly irrelevant, as long as your are consistent with it. We cannot comment on the safety or effectiveness of the product you purchased because we do not manufacture it, nor have we heard of it.
is there any problem by changing brand of protein powder i have using standard gold now iam using labrada lean
All Whey protein is the same, its the other ingredients outside of the
whey protein that you will want to look into. There is no problem
switching from one brand to another. All the best.
Is the lean pro 8 still available in the UK?
What are your opinions on adding amino acid supplements? (Arginine,Glutamine,Lysine)
Hey B Jensen, we always like to start with whole food nutrition, so as long as you have your macro nutrient needs covered each and everyday, then adding in an amino supplement prior or post training can be very helpful with the bodies needs for a positive amino acid turn over rate. Meaning you will recover and fuel your muscles that much faster when training. Hope this helps, all the best.
Hey Lee I need help. Football is coming to an end and I'm researching supplements to use. I'm nervous to use creatine because of people claiming it causes hair loss and is bad for you in the long run. I'm almost 16. Should I worried to take creatine?
+xCaspow Thanks for the question, I have never heard of creatine monohyrdate ever making anyone lose any hair. With that said, you are such a young a growing man, that we would recommend making sure you are consuming enough whole food calories each day before supplementation. So with that said, 20 calories per body pound per day should be your goal. With roughly 40% coming from protein, another 40% coming from carb, and 30% coming from fat.... Even though this is more difficult to figure out then taking a supplement these guidelines will help you far more then any supplement can at your age. With that said though, if you are able to make sure you are eating lots of extra lean protein, good carbs like potatoes and rice along with healthy fats, then adding in a supplement on top of all that can help for sure. Creatine can help as long as your nutrition is well rounded and executed almost everyday and is very safe to consume. Hope this helps, wish you all the best.
Labrada Nutrition Thanks for the help Lee! I really appreciate it.
Thanks a lot. This really helped me.
Hey Lee, I'm 15, 5'10 and only weight about 130 pounds. I am starting to workout and am wondering if it is a good idea to take any mass gainers, or protein shakes. And if so which specific kimda.
Hello i am 16 year old and i am training calisthenics for a year without any supplements and my results are the very good.I can do front and back levers and straddle planche and about 35 pull ups and about 100+ push ups and about 40 - 50 dips At ounce And less in my work out .I tried to measure my body fat % and it was 8 % (not 100% accurate).My question is do i need to start taking supplements and if yes what type of protein should i take (Cant take lactose).Thanks very much. I am not trying to impress just asking and again thank.
+Nick Frazer you will never "need" supplements as long as your whole food nutrition is on point. That being said, at your age, a whey supplement and glutamine supplement could definitely help you get in your required protein and aid with recovery!
Thank you very much for the support. :)
Hey, i'll be 18 in 6 months and i'm having trouble gaining weight. I bought an organic plant based protein but i dont know if its safe for me to take it. What do you recommend?
hi I'm 15 years I'm training for 2 years and I want to gain weights is mass gainer and creatine are safe for me
+Mazen Mostafa Thanks for the question. At the age of 15 all you need to gain size is a calorie surplus. You must eat more calories then you burn in a day. So, with that said we recommend trying to aim for 20 calories per ideal body pound per day. Now at 15 we don't expect you to know your macro nutrient break down. So adding in a weight gainer shake to your everyday meals is a good idea. If you do not gain any weight while consuming a weight gaining powder, this will mean you need to increase the size of your whole food meals until you start to see or feel a change in your physique. Hope this helps answer your question, all the best.
my parents think that creatine or whey protein is bad for me so they won't let me get it and Iam 14
That's okay Edward, right now all you need to grow is whole foods. Once you get older and on your own if you still feel those supplements fit your fitness needs then you can try them at that time. Fitness starts with whole foods, supplements are designed to supplement a well balanced whole food diet. Wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
I am 16 years old and I am planning to buy creatine. I am 195 lbs. Should I be taking 5g everyday or just after workouts?
+Veklorin Thanks for the question, research shows the continued consumption of 3-5 grams of creatine monohyrdrate each and every day proves the best results long term. Also having your creatine post workout with some form of carbohydrate is also a great way to ensure your body uses the supplement to the best of it's ability. Hope this helps answer your question, all the best.
+Labrada Nutrition Thanks a lot!
Im 15 and turning 16 in 2 months, i've been consistently training for 4 moths now and taking whey protein and creatine along with it, do you recommend any other supplements?
Hey Matt, thanks for the question, focusing on your whole foods first is really all you need at your age. Adding in Whey and creatine is a good choice. Here's what we recommend - 20 calories per ideal body pound per day. Of those calories we recommend a minimum of 1 gram of protein per ideal body pound, plus 2 grams of carbs per ideal body pound per day, the remaining calories can come from veggies and healthy fats. Wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
+Labrada Nutrition Thanks alot
Hi i am Looking for some Guidance. i am big into rugby and im at the point where i need to start taking supplements to bulk up and build that muscle but something that will also get me ripped. i need something to boost my workout and the energy. Could you advise me on any supplements?
+Gus Richards Hey Gus if you goal is to gain size, then we recommend you start with whole foods, when you can gain about 2 - 3lbs a month using whole foods, is a great time to implement supplements to really help make sure you optimize your lean muscle gains. A good solid protein powder should be the foundation of anyone's supplement program if the goal is to gain muscle. We recommend around 1 gram of protein per body pound per day. Pre-workouts are all very different, be careful when buying a pre-workout we advise using pre-workouts that a) tell you the amount of each ingredient - truth in labeling - and a product that you feel comfortable taking, you should know why each ingredient is in the pre-workout if you really want to know your stuff. Hope this helps, all the best.
Hi i already eat alot of protein through meats and things. But i dont feel like i am gaining any muscle.
Umm hello I'm 15 years old and I took a fat loss protein a couple of times but I didn't notice it was meant for fat loss. Will this harm me in anyway? Thank you would really appreciate the answer .
Hi Daniel, we can't speak to the ingredients in the protein powder because we don't know which one you purchased. However most supplement companies will never include ingredients that can hurt you. So as long as you purchased your protein powder from a reputable company you should not experience any negative affects. Hope this helps answer your question. Next time be sure to read all your supplement labels closely you should be able to say and know what each ingredient in the product is for. All the best!
+Labrada Nutrition Thank you it did answer my question I kind of did some research on the powder it's called ce nutre protein it doesn't seem bad but thank you anyways and yes will read all the supplements before taking any thanks.
Hi, just a quick question is it safe for teens to take Beta Alanine and Citrulline Malate? If so how much should you consume?
+Andrew Clark Great question, science shows supplements are safe for any age. However here at Labrada we recommend teens wait till there at least 16 to 18 and have your parents consent to use products such as these. It's not due to health reasons, it's simply for the fact that a growing teenager has all the natural help they need for energy and growth. At this age a great whole food nutrition plan full of protein, healthy carbs and lots of veggies is ideal. For info on the proper amounts and what these supplements can do for you, please take a look at this article article all about pre-workout supplements written by Hunter (my son) - www.bodybuilding.com/fun/hunter-labradas-guide-pre-workout-nutrition-supplementation.html Hope this helps, all the best.
Lee do you think whey protein and creatine can cause colitis desease? Ive known 3 people that got this desease after couple years of being on this stuff but of course its not known if it really causes it. What do you think in your opinion?
Hi Gerson, thanks for your question, whey protein along with creatine does not cause colitis as far as we know. What we can say is that thousands and thousands of people consume whey protein and creatine on a regular basis with perfect health. Thus we feel it's more then safe to consume whey protein and creatine in the proper recommended amounts. Hope this helps answer your question, all the best.
Thanks for your reply lee! I know your not a doctor but do you know what can cause it. Any particular thing that comes to your mind?
Hey I am 16 yrs old and I m really skinny and tall. I weigh 125lbs and I am 5'10.
Should I take weight gainers or whey protein? And are they safe?
And if possible can u please suggest a workout plan for ectomorphs like me.
+Zain Ul Abedeen Thank you for contacting us here at Labrada, what you are asking for is an entire nutrition and workout program. For that we recommend heading over to bodybuilding.com where they have many great free online trainers you can follow. With that said you will want to make sure you are consuming around 20 calories per body pound, per day. For example if your ideal weight was 150 you would aim for 3000 calories a day. Along with a good macro nutrient split of possibly 40% Carb 30% Protein and 30% healthy fats. A weight gainer shake is very safe for anyone to use. The choice to use a weight gainer shake is up to you. We recommend finding out your total calories goals for the day, along with how many grams of protein, carbs, and fats you ideally want to consume and go from there. Whole foods must come first when trying to gain mass, a weight gainer shake is meant to help you reach your calorie surplus after you have already ate all your whole food meals for the day. Hope you find this helpful, all the best.
+Labrada Nutrition thanks alot for the reply very very appreciated...
Btw can u suggest a program for me from bodybuilding.com ? I can not decide which one to go with! Thanks again btw
+Zain Ul Abedeen The Lean Body Trainer is a great one - www.bodybuilding.com/fun/lee-labrada-12-week-lean-body-trainer.html
hi sir labrada is a muscle mass gainer or full body mass gainer because my age is 21 and weight is 55 should I use labrada muscle mass gainer plz help me sir...
Syed, to gain muscle mass we recommend consuming around 20 calories per ideal body pound per day so if you want to be 200lbs that would be close to 4,000 calories a day, to maintain a body weight we recommend anywhere from 15-17 calories per ideal body pound per day. So either weight gainer will help you reach your goals, you must also take into account of much whole food you are consuming, so if you're only having 3 smaller meals a day the higher calorie weight gainer will be your best choice. Hope this helps, wish you all the best with your fitness and nutrition goals.
Labrada Nutrition thanx sir

What if I do not have the condition "Lee Labrada" is this supplement bad for me?
im 13 and have about 100g protein a day and workout...rly how important are vitamins?
Hey Joe, vitamins from whole foods, meaning veggies and fruits are extremely important, we recommend a minimum of 1 cup of veggies with each whole food meal. If you feel you're still in need of more nutrients after consuming 1 cup of veggies per meal, a multi vitamin supplement could help. Thank you for the question wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
Labrada Nutrition thx im looking at multivitamins and i found protein shakes with 60g so i can split into 2 servings....66 cents per serving...super cheap...thx so much...im going to get fruits and veggies
hi lee.. yesterday I bought labrada brand first time.. I hope I l get good result..
Hey, Lee I'm new to the gym and workout three days a week, I was wondering if creatine is useful for me or not
big thanks
Hey Jason, this is not Lee himself, just an employee of Labrada. Here at Labrada we feel whole food nutrition must come first, if you feel your diet is dialed in for your goals, then yes adding in Creatine monohydrate can be useful during training for sure, it will help you break through plateaus and push the limits of your training.
Hi Lee
I'm 11
Do Alot of working out Ij the morning
Is Shredz (www.shredz.com)
Safe..
i wanna go Onto the 30day plan Remeber the International Supplements (which ill get) Don't have Yohimbe And/or synphire
+Ruan du toit Thanks for the question, however I am not going to be able to answer if another companies supplements are safe. We aren't familiar with the ingredients they choose to use in their various stacks. However I can promise that any of the Labrada Nutrition supplements we have are safe. www.labrada.com All the best.
+Labrada Nutrition What Products Can You recommend for me in Lut of your stuff
+Ruan du toit At the age of 11, we would recommend sticking to whole food nutrition and perhaps adding in a protein powder to help you reach a goal of 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per body pound per day, along with at least 2 grams of carbs, and healthy fats, especially at such a young age with many years of potential growth. Here is a great protein powder that can help you reach your goals, we recommend no more then 2 scoops a day. www.labrada.com/store/leanprowhey.html This bag would last you roughly a 3 - 5 weeks depending on the amount of use and number of scoops you take a day. Wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
I am 110lbs
I'm 15, I play basketball a lot, I try to eat as much as I can, unfortunately school's food is kind of expensive and I don't really eat all the time, so when I save up enough money to buy A LOT of food, I buy 5 or 6 tortillas with beans and cheese, 4 or 5 flour cakes with ground meat and rice inside, and sauce with cheese on top, and maybe 1 or 2 bottles of natural lemonade, bottomline is i want to take protein supplements, my dad told me I could and that I should take half of what my mom takes (my mom usually takes two cups), and I wanted to know if it is safe enough for me to do it, but I am not sure if it's safe to take protein supplements even if you don't eat regularly. Also a classmate of mine told me I could die, which is kind of tricky.
P.S. I eat at home but that is until I arrive and that is at 6:30 p.m because as soon as school is over I go to basketball practice, and the supplements we have are, Body Fortress Super Advanced Whey Protein and Creatine, and Universal Protein.
P.s. By cups I meant scoops, my mom gets 2 and I get 1 of each and mix them.
+jonh trollenzki Whey protein powder is the same as eating chicken, beef, fish, and every other source of good protein out there. There is NO health risks what so ever consuming whey protein powder. You can even take 2 scoops like you Mom does if you want... More often then not, a scoop is 20-25 grams of protein. For most men, 50 grams of protein at a time is perfect, you don't need anymore then 2 scoops at one time. So feel free to keep having 1 or 2 scoops of your whey protein. Hope this helps, all the best.
+Labrada Nutrition is it still alight if I mix them all at once?
+jonh trollenzki If you are referring to mixing 2 scoops of whey protein powder together, then yes this is okay. The most protein we recommend in a sitting is 50-60 grams for most adult males. All the best.
I'm 12 I am on the football team I am a little on the heavy side at140 I want to take creatine is it safe
+Isaiah Berg At the age of 12 creatine is not needed. Good whole food nutrition, with a balanced diet of whole food carbs, extra lean proteins, and lots and lots of veggies will be the key to gaining muscle, and having plenty of energy all day long. Hope this helps answer your question, all the best.
+Labrada Nutrition thanks
Hi Lee and all the people that are doing a very nice work into the website and i really like that you guys are responding to all the comments and i haven't seen that on a lot of guys that are doing vids on youtube. I would love if you can respond to my question. So in one month i will turn to 17 and i'm going to gym for almost 8 months and i would like to start using supplements. I want to increase my muscle mass and i was looking to take impact whey protein, maybe creatine and i don't know if BCAA are good to be taken at this age. What do you guys think? Thank you a lot and i hope all the best for your youtube channel and website.
Hey "HI MOM" first thing first will always been whole food nutrition, if you roughly know the amount of carbs proteins and fats you consume per day, then adding in supplements can assist with your fitness goals. A good whey protein post exercise is what we recommend, around 25-50 grams of protein per shake. In addition, we recommend you shoot for 1 gram of protein per ideal body pound, per day.... So if you want to be 190 lbs then we would like to see you consuming 190 grams of protein from extra lean proteins like chicken and turkey breast meats, along with 1 protein shake a day. Creatine and BCAA can be added in down the road, we recommend adding in 1 supplement at a time. Hope this helps answer your question, all the best.
Hello lee. I'm a big fan. I have a question. I get very sore the next day of my workout. Can you suggest something to reduce soreness.
Hey Sumit, soreness is a great indicator of how hard you are working, stretching before and after a workout is a great way to help with soreness, also stretching morning and night before bed. The more we can move the muscle (stretching) the more blood flow we bring to the damaged tissues (your muscles) and the faster they will recover. Also making sure you are consuming around 0.6-0.9 grams of protein per ideal body pound per day will also help with your recovery. Wish you all the best with your fitness goals.

Is beach body recovery safe for a 14 year old
+Justin Monday We are not sure what Beach Body Recovery is, so unfortunately we are going to have to say we don't know... At the age of 14 we don't feel many teenagers need supplements, we feel focusing more on whole foods like potatoes, rice, beans, along with veggies, and extra lean proteins will be your best bet. These are the building blocks teenagers need to grow. It's hard to gain weight as a teenager, you are growing at a rapid rate, so high amounts of healthy foods will be by far the best way to go. Hope this helps.
i'm 14, 120 pounds and i play baseball but i was just wondering how much protein i should be getting a day and What kind of multi vitamin do you recommend?
Cole we recommend anywhere from 0.6 up to 1 gram of protein per ideal body pound per day. So for yourself if you aimed to consume 25-30 grams of protein per whole food meal, along with 1 protein shake a day you would be well on your way to well balanced nutrition. In terms of a multi vitamin - www.labrada.com/store/GN-0146.html wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
Nice video. The protein chef sent me here!
Myles Storey appreciate the support, Protein Chef is doing great things! Have a great week.
can you suggest supplements for men 45 and over please.
Hey Gordon, thanks for the question. The great thing about supplements is the fact they are meant for everyone. Which supplements you choose to use greatly depends on your personal goals. With that said, a good whey protein powder (Such as Lean Pro 8) and a supplement such as ElastiJoint are two that anyone over 40 could benefit from. Here at Labrada we like to recommend around 1 gram of protein per body pound, per day, no matter your age. There are many more supplements that could help you with your goals, we just don't have the space to write them all out :) If you want to learn more about the supplements please visit our side www.labrada.com Thanks for your question, all the best.
thanks a lot.I was hoping for a miracle supplement to help the tendons. I cant lift heavy like I used to but even with that I find myself going to the physical therapist every once in a while because of an impingement. This time it is the top of my bicep tendon that is inflamed near the shoulder. The joys of getting older.
Hey Gordon, ElastiJoint may be a great product for you then! The key to the supplement is taking it everyday (time of day does not matter as much) for at least 3-4 weeks in order to allow the ingredients such as glucosamine to have a chance to lubricate the joints. Here's a link to the product. Hope it can help you. All the best. www.labrada.com/store/ElastiJoint.html

I'm 14 can I take whey protein?
Short answer is yes Harry you can, but be sure to consume around 60-70% of your protein needs from whole foods. We recommend anywhere from 0.6 up to 1.0 gram of protein per ideal body pound per day.
I'm 14 and I used to take whey but then I switched to pea which tastes like sh*t but does the job...
Is it ok to drink Creatine with whey protein together?
+JaseH123 Good question, the answer is 100% yes it's okay to consume creatine monohydrate with whey protein, all the best with your fitness goals.
+Labrada Nutrition thanks
Great video! I would be grateful if you answer my question.
How much and what type of carbs should we be eating with 1 scoop of whey each day so that the diet remains balanced and doesn't skew due to high protein content?
+Vaibhav Gupta Thanks for the question, post workout we recommend a 2:1 carb to protein ration. Lets say 1 scoop of protein is 25 grams of protein, we would recommended roughly 50 grams of carbs from either a carb supplement such as Labrada's Power Carb, or a whole food carb such as instant oatmeal. If you are consuming a shake any other time during the day the carbs and protein needed would be determined by your needs for the entire day. Here's our online free program that explains all our nutritional tips - www.bodybuilding.com/fun/lee-labrada-12-week-lean-body-trainer.html wish you all the best.

Can a 16 year old take pre workout
+Jason Bat yes he can, but it's not neseccery, a 16year old boy is full of energy he doesn't needs extra energy.Just drink a cup od coffee 45 mins before ur workout and ur fine :)
+Jason Bat Yes you can, but as mentioned earlier, you should be careful, pre-workouts will have varying amounts of stimulants. Try sticking to a coffee or a pre-workout that has a maximum of 300 mg of caffeine per serving. Also important to note caffeine has a half life of 6 hours, so if you are taking pre-workout at 6 pm. You may find it difficult to fall asleep or get a restful night sleep, so be aware of what stimulants you are taking. Hope this helps answer the question.
great video as always !
Blue69HD greatly appreciated, hope we can continue to impress with all of our videos. Have a great week Blue69HD
Lee ,sir I am 13 and interested in bodybuilding and iam quite confused to take which protein supplement..... and my mom and brother is also interested in buying me a protein supplement so which one should I take and firstly no whey cause we can't afford it so plzzz help me sir...
Hi Midhun, this is not Lee just an employee of Labrada. At 13 sticking to whole foods may be best. Whey protein is the primary protein powder in the world at the moment, so it will be hard to find a cheaper alternative to whey. Try your best to consume some protein at each meal. Portion size could be about the size of your palm at each meal for easy measuring. Wish you all the best with your fitness goals.
