specific supplement recommendation about specific work out for basketball...

[mihaill]

hello guys ,

I would like to use this supplements creatine monohydrate, whey protein and perhaps hurricane xs for this specific training.
(I am 85 kg - 8% fat )

# morning
aerobic running 5-10 km at an easy pace
training for vertical jump.

#evening
basketball -team work.

How do you suggest my supplement usage and dosage should be.

regards,

Training days

XS - After your morning workout, as this will be the hardest on your muscles.
Creatine - Doesn't really matter. For the sake of it, you could take 5g before each training session.
Whey - I would have a shake with your last meal, so after your evening training. You could also have one with breakfast, to give your blood a boost of amino acids, before your training - this is what I do.

Rest days

XS - You could have one as a snack, when there is a long gap between meals, like lunch and dinner.
Creatine - Doesn't really matter. You may as well have it in the morning, just so you can get a routine, and get it over and done with. I used to have a heaped tea spoon - roughly 10g... I think.
Whey - Whenever you need that boost. Have it as part of a meal, or as a snack.

As what you do is clearly hard on your joints, I would recommend taking omega 3 supps(unless you eat a lot of fish), to help combat inflammation, and potentially protect your joints.

If you take Hurricane XS you don't need any more creatine, it has 5g creapure per serving which is plenty if you have two servings a day

thnks for the answers... perhaps I'll take the hurricane ... What about protein ? should I take 2 scoops per day with hurricane - 5 meals? My goal is power and explosiveness not too many extra kilos...

For me, i used it straight after workouts and then about 6 hours later on in the day. Then on non-training days i would just have one serving in the morning, i didn't think I need 10g of creatine on a non-training day. I'm sure someone will come along and prove me wrong on that. As for more protein i took Impact whey protein before my workouts and sometimes on non-training day for extra portein consumption, not sure that's necessary for you if you're trying to avoid putting on much weight
