I've worked with 3 prep guys and they ALL say to can the protein drinks (except for post workout) and EAT real food instead.

i think the drinks would be ok as long as they aren't a junk brand. an isolate would be ideal

This is my boy and i try telling him that he should be starting some light cardio atleast right now. 16 weeks isn't that long. He is not very lean now. I think its better to be safe than sorry and have to rush at the last minute.

please give some feedback on the cardio issue

Whey protein isolate would BE A MUST if these are taken.

Many say (and I believe it's true) that burning BF is relative to the amount (and type) of calories you intake. Guys like homonunculus and T-Muscle (if I remember correctly) don't do cardio for precontest cause they tend to lose muscle. Now if there isn't adequate "time" to lose BF via caloric intake, then an additional load must be placed on body to burn fat (cardio).
