Macros! - Proteins, Carbs, Fats!

[Damios]

1. Is there something like eating too many Proteins? ~1,5-2g/lb is good range?

2. Are Carbs essential to muscle growth?

3. High Carbs or High Fats for fuel?

4. You best cutting/bulking/year round macros split?

What's Your opinion? 

[the trainer]

- Petrol for fuel.
- 10 pounds of meat daily for protein, eat big to get big.
- Carbohydrates are essential for muscle growth, one carb-up can yield 40 pounds of muscle if it's done right, 2 carb-ups to make that 80 pounds.
- High fat, high carbs is best for cutting and bulking.

[Damios]

I dont see what is bad with this topic... IF you dont want to say something from your exp than dont answer. Simple AS fuck 

And its not topic about my person. Its only to discuss LOL.

A calorie is a calorie.....lol

I get all my calories from salt.

Protein - Enough for metabolic maintenance and repair, but not so much that the kidneys are taxed unnecessarily.

Carbs -  Enough to fuel the brain, red blood cells and and to maintain adequate Glycogen supplies, but not so much that blood sugar stays chronically high, causing dietary fats to be stored in adipose tissue.

Fats - Enough to meet fat soluble vitamin and basic metabolic needs but not so much as to create a caloric surplus.

The numerical amounts vary according to the individual.

So when you go keto does your brain stop functioning?

Ketones are the brain's backup fuel when glucose, the brain's preferred fuel source, isn't available.

It's really easy.  1-4 can all be covered by going and fucking yourself.  Seriously, all you need to do is go fuck yourself to attain your goals.  HTH!

1. way too much protein. 1gm per LB plenty.

2. what builds tissue carbs or proteins?

3. try both. see what works best for you.

4. why bulk? what does carrying around fat from eating too much accomplish? does being fat build muscle? cutting forget abt BMRs that's the biggest crock of shit going. most people use their bodyweight- fat included- to figure out their cal percentages. do you see the redundancy here? why base your food intake on a percentage of bodyweight that includes the fat your trying to lose. lol

Damios is a good guy. not a gimmick. he's not English so his grammar is odd but he's a good guy trying to learn.

[Complex Carbs]

Blood sugar levels have not much to do with carbohydrates intake.

Damios might be a good guy, but he is so confused he will never listen to anybody for long enough.

Apparently your brain also functions better on ketones

Thread starter, do you workout?

Since when?

I am asking, because after some time, people figure out what foods and macros are good for them and the training.

[Hulkotron]

20 reps = cuts
8 reps = mass
5 reps = strength
3 reps = power

I hope this helps

Forced negative reps with 2 spotters = ultimate density look to the muscle
15 reps = not growing, not shrinking
25 reps = strong emphasis on striations
1 rep = building collagen tissue

There is no over training, there is only under eating.

A serious bodybuilder should not worry about calories and macros, he will have a hard time getting enough nutrition to grow, even if all calories were from Burgerking.
