I get tired of eating so much meat

[TheShape.]

You might not need 300 grams of protein, but only 100 or less?

[Disgusted]

No homo. Just tired of eating so much meat to get my 200 grams of protein in. Usually do about 1 or 2 shakes. Can't I just bump up the shakes without losing out too much?

I remember a getbigger (OTH or disgusted) said when he was roofing he would drink about 6 shakes day and was able to build muscle.

That was OTH. Just eat some eggs. 200 grams is not too much and should be easy to get.

The body can not assimilate  any amount of protein at one time.

You could answer this yourself the other way around: why do you need more than 100?

Pros claim huge numbers here.  Do we know what they really eat?  I bet no.  If MuscleTech was paying your rent and your wife's post-op therapy you'd probably tell everyone they need 2g/lb too.

Doesn't the body take in a certain amount of protein, then you just piss and shit the rest out? That was always my assumption.

The body assimilates protein over time not at one time. All this talk about how much protein can the body absorb at one once, 20 grams 50 grams. Let me ask you, if someone eats 20 grams of protein and the other eats 80 what happens with each of these two guys?

the same thing.

guy A eats 125 grams of protein in one meal, which happens to be his goal for that day.

guy B eats 5 meals of 25 grams of protein for 125g daily which happens to be his goal for the day.

the body utilises the protein in both instances equally if it is needed.

but now I get what you were saying.

depends on it's needs.

imo the body will hoard protein much the same way it does water after a severe water depletion. the body loves stasis and will do everything it can to maintain that environment.

[Antonio fella]

So the ultimate question !!!!!! :


How much PROTEIN one should be eating?  

personally I believe in frequent small meals - when I eat 2-3 times a day I don't grow up the dose? fake oils?

[Disgusted]

the same thing.

guy A eats 125 grams of protein in one meal, which happens to be his goal for that day.

guy B eats 5 meals of 25 grams of protein for 125g daily which happens to be his goal for the day.

Exactly brother! One meal or many it doesn't matter. Serge Nubret ate like this during his contest cycle and thrived on it. Of course it will take longer to digest that's the only difference. Like I said, over time.

Not sure if we should believe what S. Nubret was saying... his constant claims being 100% natty was way too much in 300+ bb.com thread.

And to think about it - if it was true why we don't see people do it these days? one big meal a day and that's it.... I have never ever saw this practice in bb community.

First I've corresponded with Serge before he died through email. I also read every post he has ever written on I believe Ironage. By the time Serge was answering questions on that site he was well into his 60's. Serge was no at all comfortable answering steroid questions to what at times I'm sure were young kids. I don't blame him at all for claiming natural. Serge trained guys at the gym and of course he was going to talk to them about cycles behind closed doors and to adults but to put yourself out there like most younger guys today imo would have been irresponsible. There are plenty of places to talk drugs and "educate" oneself and find the magic cycle that will turn one into a muscle God.

I've been around a long time and I have tried all different diets including eating once a day. Personally twice per day worked best for me. I used eggs and meat back in the day. It's all about discipline!! Most guys have little to none when it comes to eating.

How did your diet evolve over time?

[Disgusted]

Would anyone on here like to look like this? Does anyone on here look like this? Somewhere I have the diet plan that Mo was selling at the high point of his career and I also have all the Musclemags that talked about his training and diet. He ate twice daily basically zero carbs and nearer the show he cut back to plain chicken breasts to look like that.

I also have a letter that he wrote to me answering someone of my questions about diet. He admitted to using and even said what he took in the letter and what diuretic he took and how. How's that for honestly? The one thing that I remember him saying in the letter was, in order for one to get shredded you had to suffer. Anyone who claims to get that lean and tells you it was painless has either never been that lean or is lying to you.

[Disgusted]

When I was 18 I was already using the zero carb diet while dieting. I've experimented through the years but I always have come back to that. I think that for over all health too one should not stimulate insulin too much and stick to a "lower" carb diet void of sugar. Keep them at a min just enough that you don't get too fat. Remember that protein and fat are essential to life not carbs.

learn to cook...

[Primemuscle]

Are you including all the protein you consume? There are many foods which contain protein besides meat. Quinoa for example is a grain that is high in protein. Some legumes contain a fair amount of protein too. You'd be surprised at the difference sources for protein. Read the labels.

[Disgusted]

Making this way to complicated.

What is The Trainer’s Gorilla diet bro?

Saw the link was afraid to click.

[Simple Simon]

I was sayin he was Bluto adamantly last month
Nobody seemed to agree

You never knew bluto, he was long gone before you signed up

Gimmick outed.

[Simple Simon]

another bunch of broscience bullshit about how meat is better than powder.

does anyone really think ANY protein source is better than another? do you think your body says 'hmm this isn't isolate' or 'this isn't chicken breast' ?

all protein is same.

as for amounts I have never noticed a difference between 250 and 150 when I diet.

we eat too much protein, and it is all the same at the end of the day. I knows some people's entire existence will be shattered to hear that- they need some proteins to be better than others. lol sorry to disappoint

I have looked considerably better since dropping shakes from my diet and replacing them with food.

Same here, I very very rarely drink them, I only do cos my girl has a tub at mine all the time....sometimes I know I won't be eating for a couple of hours after a training session, so I would do one scoop at no more than 20/24g protein with water and a banana, then I'm off for a couple of hours. This happens twice a month max.

I am also a part believer in the Adonis Principles of peace as much as I hate the c unt ().

I don't eat breakfast, lunch I have something small to tick me over and dinner I would eat a big meal at 9pm with carbs and some junk on the side after like biscuits and cake....considering that I won't eat anything till the next day it makes sense to me that a big meal wouldn't do much harm, this is also after training as I train after work, next day I'm up at 6:30am and usually run to work on empty stomach and don't eat anything to after 10am.

With all this I am now around 215lbs lean.
