hmm, I see what you mean but I assumed (wrongly) that Hovi5 was referring to tearing the muscles. I did that and it was over 3 months before the doctor allowed me to do anything (not that I was complaining as it was agony just walking).

I think that Hovis is a personal trainer/fitness guru or something, he may be talking sense. Calories give you enegry, they do not create muscle. The exercise that you do, does, and as said, the protein repairs your muscle fibres. I know that much. What you need to do is slow your metablisim down, then you will put weight on faster than you ride a bike...which isnt hard  Wish i was 12 stone!! Im wieghing in at 17st 7lb! |

IMO every day is a bit hardcore but it can be done i just dont see point 3-4 days a week is ok but as blue says you also need the rest at least 48 hours before you train the same muscle a good intermediate routine is
day 1 back & biceps day off day 2 chest & triceps day off day 3 legs & shoulders & you should be incresing the weight every 1-2 weeks you say you have low BF% what is it if you dont mind me asking? & how do you know? & is the weight you put on all muscle? |

Oh, I gotta question! Is there anyway to lost fat without transferring it into muscle (my muscles bulk up unbelievably quickly) and doing so with a buggered knee?
(My personal trainer was not helpful, I had to prove that I could shift more weight on the machines than him before he would believe me when I said I do not need to do weights) |

 walking on the tredmill should be ok & you can incline it to make it harder. a cross trainer would also be good as there is no impact on the knee, bike should also be ok.jogging/running is probaly not a good idea (depending on how bad the knee is) light cardio working at about 65% of your max heart rate or on a scale of 1-10 .........10 being totaly flat out about 6-7. you should just about be able to hold a conversation with sombody |

creatine is a chemical that your body produces taking extra creatine in theory will let you train a bit harder
if you take creatine you might be able to do 10 reps instead of 8 without it but it takes time to build up in your body ( 6 weeks i think) edit did they use scales or calipers to do BF |
