Advisory meeting #2

EQ: What is the best way to increase muscle mass in bodybuilding? 
Answer 2: Having evenly prepped meals throughout the day that satisfy you with enough micro and macro-nutrients to target muscle growth. 


-Macro and Micro-nutrient basics why they are important and the ( proteins, carbs, and fats) science behind it all.

- TDEE ( Total Daily Energy Expenditure ) total number of calories one oxidizes or "burns" in a day. Broken up into three parts ( Resting Metabolic Rate, Thermic effect of a meal, and energy expenditure of physical activity)

-Setting it all up ( Diet Planner, Tracking your intake, Managing meals away from home, What to put into your shopping cart, Preparing food in advance for the whole week)

Conclusion Sentence: Having all these components will most definitely effect muscle growth in the nutritional part.

Independent Component 1

LITERAL
(a) I, Christian Velez, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.
(b) Will, Brink. Bodybuilding Revealed. Book. My Mentor (expert in weight training field).
(c) Provide a digital spreadsheet. Check
(d) Explanation of what you completed: for this independent component I really did lots of mentorship with my mentor. This really was the most important and helpful source for this project. I got all of my 3 answers to the EQ from this independent component.  

INTERPRETIVE
Defend your work and explain how the significant parts of your component and how it demonstrates 30 hours of work. 
Provide evidence (photos, transcript, art work, videos, etc) of the 30 hours of work. For this independent component I did manage to get a new personal trainer who happens to own a gym. I was actually learning from both mentors at the same time which was really convenient. Learning the importance of weight training and how to prevent injury during a workout. Then whatever I learned that day I would research the science part behind all of this stuff. Ive learned so much from this independent component. I will be putting up more videos of the different workouts that are helpful to all for preventing injury in the gym. I also have pictures of the supplements and nutrition that I have been taking and eating.  

APPLIED

How did the component help you understand the foundation of your topic better?  This component really gave me more time to really research and discover many great ways that I could answer my EQ. The foundation of this component is really the basics of weight training and getting to know how muscle mass is really increased. Mentoring almost everyday to really become an expert in the field of weight training isnt easy. There is lots to still learn but I now know the 3 most important parts of my eq.
