"bodybuilding nutrition"

[Fatpanda]

lift weights

your genetics will determine the rest

you will have a good idea of your genetics and potential within 6 weeks of working out

if that were true and bodybuilding was purely a matter of genetics then humans would have died out long ago.

Why is it so hard to distinguish between the goal of optimal body composition and the goal of optimal health? This is a bodybuilding board and this thread is named "bodybuidling nutrition". In any case, there is just as much bro science in the field of optimal health (if not even more) than in the field of bodybuilding.

Optimal body composition in bodybuilding is NOT 60kg 10% bodyfat.
You could compete in a Japanese women's BB contest with your body and weight, and you would lose.

Sorry.

I think I already mentioned that arguments ad hominem (even if they would be correct) are irrelevant to the topic at hand.

FU, WL.

YOU are irrelevant for bodybuilding, you little austrian twink.

How's that for body composition?

Of course I'm irrelevant to it, I'm just a skinny geek with too much time on my hands.
Since I have no education in nutrition science whatsoever, I use the same method as literally all nutrition "experts", "gurus", and supplement companies:

Throw shit on the wall and see what sticks.












However, I do have a GF with a master in nutrition science.

Then why don't you listen to her for a change?


On a side note: Pics or it didn't happen.

Sasha Wallecek?

She listens to me.

Coming from you that's kind of ironic.

Sasha Wallecek?

Too old and she doesnt have a master degree.

Are you saying i don't even exist??

Plus calories on fries and Mc Chicken are much higher, so this means that in return you get much less protein or carbs

x2  If only the "calorie is a calorie" group could understand this.

[JP_RC]

If you're on a restricted calorie diet it makes a lot of sense to go for lower calorie dense foods like chicken and potatoes, so one can get much more nutrition (carbs and protein) from the controlled calories. I definitively agree with eating high calorie dense foods like pizza or anything when growth is the main goal (easier to get in high amounts of calories), but on a diet its different.

And its not because chicken breast and rice are magic foods that get you lean and its not because burgers and fries make you fat, its just beacause as Donkey said: you'll get more nutrients out of the controlled calories.

wavelength = 125 lbs at 5'11"
fatpanda = 417 lbs at 5'11"

what do they have in common?  both claim to be on the same diet.

I agree, it's a convenience factor. For many people, less dense foods will make their diet easier to maintain. However, for other people a more moderate approach or even a diet with predominantly dense food is more convenient. The point is that for body composition it doesn't matter and therefore can be used as a tool of convenience.

As far as nutrients go, you just have to get the minimal required values for survival and optimal body composition. IMO, you can easily get that just as well from dense foods (maybe supplemented by a protein shake and some fruits and veggies).

pathetic and embarassing at the same time.

Don't feel bad guys (and girl), I too was once a masochist.
