I've been hitting the gym pretty hard with high-intensity workouts, and I'm thinking about adding whey protein to my routine. I'm just wondering if it's actually good for building muscle and if there are any downsides I should worry about as I get older. Could it have any negative effects later on?

I'm really into my morning walks, and I've been gradually increasing my distance to about 22.5 kms. But lately, I've noticed I'm super exhausted by the time I get home, and sometimes I'm just drowsy all day. I've even caught myself dozing off during travel. This has been going on for about a month. Any idea why this might be happening or how I could fix it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing fatigue and drowsiness due to physical exertion. You may benefit from taking a supplement like Vitamin B12 to help boost your energy levels. I recommend taking a Vitamin B12 supplement with a dosage of 1000 mcg daily. Additionally, make sure you are staying hydrated before, during, and after your walk. If the symptoms persist, it would be a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I'm having this pinching pain deep in my left bicep, kind of near the middle and close to the bone. It kicks in whenever I flex my bicep, and I got this from the gym. I've rested but it hasn't eased up. Why hasn't the pain reduced even after taking it easy?
The most likely causes are tendinitis, a muscle strain, or nerve-related issues. However, if the pain persists or worsens, its essential to consult a healthcare provider who can properly assess your injury and guide you through a treatment plan. In the meantime, rest, ice, gentle stretching, and avoiding activities that strain the bicep are crucial steps. A tailored rehab plan or physical therapy might be helpful to fully recover from the injury.
