My A level journey and athlete lifestyle blog

Some food I ate yesterday @Kraggor
It was chicken thighs coated in Jamaican seasoning which was peng af and I ate it after I did my core workout

Would you recommend creatine? Someone recommended it here and I'm prolly gonna get some in two weeks I think it's like £25 from Holland and barret

Good luck with that 😹 Yeah hopefully I will have got all the practical notes done by the end of Easter and I'll have memorised them
Have you personally memorised all of the AS practicals? What s your favourite practical skill? Mine is making up a volumetric solution and carrying out an acid based titration Yeah I'll have a got some practical skills questions I really need to try and master them since I want to Chemistry at uni

You can try creatine, for some it works and others it doesn't. Never buy supps from Holland & Barrett or any shop for that matter lol, well overpriced. You can get a kilo of creatine for like £13 from MyProtein.

Damn, they do look delicious to be fair Can't wait to get back into working out next week

Haha, going well atm, doing some flight mass spectrometry questions. I have reviewed all practicals, but I still need to practice memorizing them, probably by rewriting from memory. My favourite practical is probably the acid-base titration, and test for anions. Oof, good luck with Chemistry at uni. xD

Nice flight mass spec is pretty easy tbh that's good, haven't studied the test for anions yet but it sounds cool thanks I think I'm gonna love chemistry and I'll start of with a foundation year which should give me enough knowledge for the bsc degree

OK thanks ill checkout my protein I don't have a bank account atm but I can use my mum or dad's would recommend powder or capsules??

Yes, it is pretty easy, just simple maths knowledge if you ask me. Yes, test for anions is pretty fun and easy to learn too, hence that's my favorite one yet. Yes, a chemistry degree is highly qualified, especially if you do want to become an industrial chemist. Enrolling as a foundation year will give you a period of retraining before embarking on a degree.

Capsules are just the powder, but in capsules lol. They typically work out a lot more expensive so just get the powder.

Powder is best but I'd say.creatine isnt necessary as long as you're eating right etc but it can be beneficial. I didn't notice any difference when I took it for 1 month but that's just me.

Perhaps your body didn't process it well. What supplements are you currently taking? I'm currently taking whey protein and protein boost already made protein drinks and I also drink protein water which I get from my local Morrisons

Yeah to be an industrial chemist I nerd a bsc and masters in Chemistry yeah I'll be able to enhance my practical skills, gain a foundation chemistry knowledge and learn everything I need for the bsc as my grades probably won't meet the requirements to go straight on to a bsc and it should be pretty fun today I phonecalled uni of South Wales and they've emailed me some info about their foundation year

OK ill stick to the powder and how do you consume it do you mix it with water or milk?

They sure were dank and I've got some delicious food to eat today! Like I can't get over how delicious the food is 😱 Oh cool I look forward to reading about your workouts and ill be sure to update you on my workouts/ athlete lifestyle and diet 😁

Damn, they do look delicious to be fair Can't wait to get back into working out next week

Glad to hear you got some tasty food! Haha food is just too good in general for me. And tbh I do sometimes now feel these cravings. Like there are times now I just want to eat because of the positive taste sensation but not to fill hunger
Started my workouts again this week and it feels good to start again. Hoping to double up my workouts next week if I feel like I can do it
Awesome please do! Always love to hear how others are doing there bits and even learn what to do or what not to do and if it would fit my way of doing things

Honestly I used to take supplements but not anymore because even if I have 60g protein a day I'm still making gains lol. Last supplement I had was optimum nutrition whey protein back in 2018 but in my opinion I don't need it but maybe next year I'll consider whey protein again or something also it made me have watery poop idk if it was he whey protein or milk because low key I might be lactose intolerant but idc I'm still having dairy Haha
