Hey Bros!
I have a question in regards to my 8 year old son who plays soccer. He is actually a very good soccer player only thing is that he is skinny.
What do you guys suggest as what to take? Is protein powder good for him? What kinds of vitamins are suggested?
What can you expect in terms of diet for a 8 year old. He likes candy stuff like that, but besides that I want something that can increase his appetite.
Thanks in adance

at 8 years old I wouldn't give him anything to increase his appetite. You could be setting him up for a hard time later. The farthest I'd go is replacing his candy with a protein bar. Maybe a kids vitamin
X2 ^^ also try and give him a extra meal or two but i don't think it will be that easy with a 8yoQuote:

It all comes down to genetics as well!
I was like that when I was younger!
And actually he looks more athletic but a bit on the skinny side.
All advice given here on point.
A few years from now he will eat lots more.
thanks Bros

Tren is a good first stack with test of course. LoL
Throw in some DNP so he doesn't put on too much fat? :)Quote:

You ask me why i asked this question here? First because I felt like asking and second, i never mentioned juice for my son duh... it was a simple question
Why do YOU ask?

Honestly, because I got mixed up and somehow was convinced you were a mom with 1 post who came here and was asking this question. In which case I would have been kinda confused as to how she decided on this place....its been a long day
You thought some lady came on here and created the handle "BigPimpin76" to ask questions pertaining to her child? lolQuote:

BigPimpin, at 8 years old, the only thing you should be feeding him is good healthy food. Junk food is fine for a treat, but you need to be building good habits for him. And soccer players aren't exactly jacked anyways.
Honestly, being nervous about a skinny kid make zero sense. Unless the child do not have access to the food they will eat when hungry because I can assure you that there is no chance of starvation unless there is a medical problem. My daughter seems to be in a snake phase, she eats crazy about once per week and then she puts down almost 300g of chicken breast plus ice cream for dessert and after that eat some Mangos. This is really a non-issue all in your head.
I agree w/just informing him of healthy eating along with a healthy lifestyle(I'm sure he sees you as his idol)... So I think once he turns 12(ish) push-ups/sit-ups/Pull-ups will do wonders... Then as he turns into a teenager you can start implementing some weight training which I'm sure you'd love to do ;). Best of luck BP76
Thanks Bro!Quote:

And so it is for sure! That keeps them mentally stable.
If they mess up I talk to them that these situations are normal in life . And they understand!
I will take things at a time help them to be happy! That is what matters most the rest will come naturally.
God and life is good no matter what the situation may be
