How do i weight train and marathon train when i have a very high metabolism? I cant put on weight when i do endurance running but wish to achieve a high standard in both. I lift weights then burn off muscle when running, even when taking creatine. Any ideas?

"Gotta eat if you wanna get big." - Friend of mine

If you have a high metobalism CRAM IT in your mouth. You need to be eating twice or three times as much as you do now. Try aiming for 6,000 calories if you eat 3 or maybe 8.

    * After puberty your essential muscle growth is over and your muscle starts to deteriorate.

    * As you age you lose muscle. "If you don't use it, you lose it."

    * The act of pregnancy further accelerates your muscle loss. The amount of protein your baby needs to develop requires the baby to steal protein (muscle) from you!

    * Dieting and aerobic exercise without strength training causes muscle loss.

    * Weight training re-builds your lost muscle.

    * Women who weight train won't increase their muscle size much, just their muscle's density and strength. So forget the fear of "bulking up."

    * MUSCLE BURNS FAT!!!!
