Cuting Cycle and Protein Intake ..Increase or Decrease?

[ryan04]

But thats just staying in the norm range of protien intake. Isnt it safe to say that while "ON" you need more protein as the muscles are in high gear with strength and growth increase?

Yes you're right, I just meant to consume AT LEAST a gram for every lb. I'd say keep the protein as high as possible. But keeping protein intake at, say 1.5 gr per lb. and more gets more and more difficult the more you drop your cals. When your on a bulker you've got a lot of leeway to eat a dumpload of protein...its not too difficult to eat up to 3-400 grams a day. But when your eating 2 k cals a day its not quite that easy. Like trying to squeeze a dime out of a nickel.

I'm far from an expert on suitable pre-contest diets though, so take this with a grain of salt.

Will do ...I do know its all about trial and error and finding out just exactly what your "OWN" body needs and what it can handle. high metab or low. So i will try things out and i really appreciate your input and suggestions. ! As for myself ...its OFF TO THE GYM TO THROW SOME IRON AROUND !!

thanks again.
