Protein/ Workout?

[bbs22201]

You should be toning not bulking

If you want to lose weight, you should be doing cardio and eating a healthy diret to burn calories. Protein powder doesn't help you lose weight

also it syasy u shouldnt use it till youre 18 because if youre below 18 ur body is still developing, and if you take a lot of it frequently at your age it can destroy your kidneys.

Im not builking I only eat like 1200-1500 calories a day I am just using the protein to because I need more in my diet and im trying to build a little muscle. I used to only be getting about 50g's of protein but my body isn't built to weigh like 120-150 so I need a little more protein.

1 more thing also if you eat more protein and build a little more muscle you burn more calories at rest thats why you shouldn't skip leg day

if your body isnt built for something your trying to achieve i recomend not trying to achieve it.

I just mix protein powder into my banana milkshake. I play football so my workout is either whatever the plan in the gym or just practice.

I don't know what you're working out, but if you want speed for pretty much anything, core is a must. That's what I've learned from track and swimming.

To be fair its useless to take protein shakes during the growing stage of your life. I can give you an article to read if you like.

srsly?
ya ur 14, but u dont need to take those for whatever sort. just eat lol. ur still growing.
get on a program and start from there.
eat 1200-1500 calories each day? not sure if srs. if u are, that is way too little.
if u want to build adequate muscle at a good pace, you have to bulk. otherwise you will gain lean muscle very slowly.
and yeah, at least 2-5k depending on intensity/volume.
youre picking up weight, but youre trying to eat as a good amount of protein as possible.
eating potein alone wont help you gain weight.
Post ur routine.

I workout as well but don't really work to hard on what I eat unless I can't go to the gym for awhile...like now, I recently left to work and now that Im back haven't been able to hit the gym much and have no waits at home so I really can only do cardio witch I can't stand...but I guess you have to do it. Honestly I plan to buy a good amount of waits and other gym stuffz due to being a lazy person and not wanting to get ready and go, now I have no excuse. Last thing is I really only drink smoothies on occasion but would love some recommendation for protein shakes.

This is true it will not help you lose weight. Now this isn't a bad thing, you really just want to lose belly fat and gain muscle which does weigh way more.

Losing weight/ building muscle. I have lost 20 in 2-3 months and thats why i do heavy cardio but I do weights to get stronger and maintain muscle mass as well as build. I researched a lot and people say you can't lose weight and build muscle at the same time but I have gotten a lot more muscle definition in my legs as well as arms

you are correct. it technically is possible to gain muscle at the same time you're cutting, but it is very difficult and slow.
Please keep in mind that losing weight is based mostly out of diet, or what i would probably say 75-80%. cardio makes the process slightly faster (HIIT probably more effective). So even if you do all that neat stuff, a bad diet can make it look all for nothing, and may even just make the situation even worse. Eat healthy, but don't starve. Eat a good amount, and take away a decent amount of calories each day or so. When losing weight, there always has to be some sort of shortening intakes.
Again, building muscle won't be as effective when cutting. food is vital for gains.
Later if you're looking for building muscle or strength, i recommend a program. You can look for one online like ICF 5x5, etc. Currently I'm doing Babylovers SS, a variant of SS. It consists of mainly compound movements. keep i mind that if ur looking for gains, compound exercises are most effective, and should be the base of your workouts. sets and reps are 3x5. the exercises are: barbell squats, bench press, deadlifts, barbell rows, military press, chin ups, dips, and a range of optional isolation movements. Every program has something called a progressive overload. you add weight each session. every exercise is increased by 5 pounds except for deadlifts, which is 10 (might change later on in heavy weights)
This program helped me progress a lot, and im sure others will help as well. In just 2 months, I raised my squats and from nub 95 lbs to 230 lbs, and other exercises has progressed a lot as well. I gained massive strength in short time, and thats the benefits of programs. It takes less time each session, but it consists of heavy lifts.
I recommend a program. If you want adequate muscle, a program from someone who is experienced will help you a lot
