I am a lacto octo vegeterian i do not eat meat so i am spending most of my money on Protien Powder.Its frustating $250 dollars a week for food.
I do not plan on whoring a sugar daddy or mummy.There should be a bill in congress to allow food as a tax deduction on serious bodybuilders, Amatuers pros.

250 bucks a week???????? why? that is totally unnecessary and stupid, i eat about 350 grams of protein on 75-80 bucks a week and that food also feeds a 32 year old woman and ten year old boy that i live with, i buy a 5 pound jug of Optimum Whey protein every couple of months for 28 bucks and some creatine every month or so for 15 bucks.

Get inc. as a model or athlete. Then just declare a loss of 10,000 on your business every year :) Food, gym dues, gas, TP... you name it.

I knew you would get a lot of cracks on this , some funny/clever, some retarded , etc ;)
1.On a serious note, if possible try to work on getting a better career path going as your first goal. Sorry but I think you now realize that even bodybuilding can suck if you have no $$ to pay the bills. Go back to school, and/
or work your up with a good company, etc, whatever. Sorry to preach, but I KNOW this to be true from learning the hard way myself.Bodybuilding doesn't pay the bills until you get pretty high up.For many it sucks the focus and energy from things that should really matter in a happy productive life, like careers and relationships.
2, Ok , I know that juice is the last major cog in the contest bpdybuilders plan of attack, but if I were you I would spend an extra cash I had on FOOD. Hit the juice after you have your diet down and you stopped making gains.
3. Do basic , intense work outs and eat a basic simple diet. That way you get the most bang for your buck.
good luck in your life and your bodybuilding, Howard

Here is a practical here and now tip you might like that you can use right now on your trip.
But a 5 lbs cansiter of choc whey protein at any discount nutrition, most sell for around 35 bucks.I like Champion, but any major brand is good.
Get a good shaker with screw on lid, when you stop, buy some milk add a scoop of whey and bam ya got some high quality pro , pretty cheap and convenient.
Good luck and it might be fun if you post about any funny gym stuff you encounter on your trip.

lol..it can get expencive, but I think your exxagerating OR you have a shit Job. lol..sorry.. Wtf do you buy? Like Sarcasm said-
Talking like your KEvin Levronie or Somethin.. ::)

costco is 25 bucks for 6 lbs of mixed source protein and the bags of mixed veggies there are dirt cheap....also the bag of yams is a smokin deal too.
the better question is why the hell are you a vegetarian? i know countless ex-vegetarians who now eat fish and chicken and even red meat and are much happier
eat salmon and chicken breasts, they're stupid animals anyway, dont feel bad
-

Good idea. I bought 200 pounds of beef at one time from a butcher. Saved a ton...
-
vegetarian isnt healthier....eating fish and chicken, some lean red meat once in awhile is healthier than being a vegetarian

Ok that sounds better than what I did..I boned a 200 lb butcher and he charged me plenty..damn, I knew I got something wrong.
-
750 grams of protein per day is just stupid...that is 3000 calories all by itself....
-

Agree 100 %. BTW, someone once said Vegetarians don't live longer - their lives just SEEM longer (due to boredom etc) ;D
-
Cosco's, Sam's Club, BJ's or whatever are definately the answer to your question. You can buy in bulk and buy an extra freezer for under $200. In the end the savings will pay for the freezer and continue to save you money. You'll literally pay 1-4 dollars a pound less on meat and fish, and much less on frozen vegetable, rice, potatoes, yams, cans of tuna, etc.

Start eating meat. Getting most of your protein from powder is not a good idea or good nutrition. Thats why its called a "supplement".

Danny Padilla had a diet of 60 - 90 grams a protien a day. Things that make you go hmmmmmm

Vince Taylor eats twice a day and has a nice glass of scotch to kick back in the evenings but for most of us without their extraordinary genetics it would not be as productive.

that is literally the craziest thing i've ever heard in my life, 750 grams of protein per day? what are you thinking?

Hendrix, problem numero uno is this: "I am lacto octo vegeterian." How bout you cut that stupid shit out and start eatin meat...leave the all vegetable diet shit to the women and queers. Meat tastes better, is less expensive and you won't come off as such a candyass thumbsucker.....voila problem solved!!!
No offense.

totally agree, i can't imagine lifting without eating meat, if you tried eating 750 from meat perday you'd be shitting brown water.

I take in whey and skim milk 1-2 times per day if I can't get in regular meals.......I supplement. If the protein portion of a diet is 90% supplementation then you've already missed the boat.
And exactly as Sarcasm said, I too would be shittin my guts out with all that liquid cause that powder doesn't go down well with water....gotta have a least skim milk and that shit will eventually tear me up if drink enough.
Hendrix, go get a fuggin steak!!

Let's face it though...to eat clean and healthy is not cheap
Look at any fast food place...
Hamburgers - $.99
Chicken Sandwhich $2.99
As someone else said Costco is my best friend as well.....15 dozen eggs for $9-$11
Less than $1 a dozen...

actually i've found eating clean and better is less expensive on a per meal basis than most fast food restaurants.

Exactly, in order to get in enough protein...even from a fatty fast food source......I'd shell out $12/meal at McDonald's or wherever.

Holy crap, is that true???
What did his daily diet look like?

I read it on the Ironager site, I put a pic of Padilla up and he (danny) responded (with class and indiffrence, something missing from the pros who lurked in the 90s and are from hungary) , then someone was like Danny, 60-90 grams of protein ...it was never argued

Buy canned tuna egg whites and big bags of frozen chicken...cheapest sources

Is that how you packed on all that quality muscle on your 155 lbs frame ?
-
Just grow you own chickens..
-
What in god's name makes you think a chicken sandwich from a fast food place is "clean and healthy"? ::)
Look at the actual nutrition information... chances are, it's just as bad as the burger.
You got to go with the grilled chicken for fast food, only bad thing is bun and it cost 3-4$
-
I guarantee he's way healthier for it in the long run. If I wasn't well-off enough to afford organic grass-fed meat and my only choice was the crap produced by the commercial meat industry, I'd be a vegetarian too.
Same here. Except I'm not well off but I buy grass fed anyway. Whole foods gets about a quarter of my income.

I will always opt for the better quailty meats then buy cheap ass tough shit, i eat alot of chicken and i almost always buy purdue cause it's the most tender and trimmed the best.
