bro if it is hard for you to get 180 grams of protein you should not be on the juice. i get about 365 grams every day | ||

It is not always fun and tasty but the boys are right...if you can't force down more than 180gr a day you probably should'nt be in the club. | ||

After training consume between 50-100 grams of protein depending on your lean mass. Make sure that it is absorbed quickly so use a protein shake or something. 5 more meals bro simply add in 35-40 grams at each meal and bingo. 300 grams. ------------------ | ||

like they said.. it may not be tasty meals all the time, and u may get really full.. but u can do it. I try to consume 50-60g per protein shake and I usually have 4 shakes/day, plus my regular meals....... | ||
Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 1129 |
I usually consume 160 grams by lunch time! easy to consume 300gr i think 300-400 is resonable. You need to evalute your diet and figure what your eating and how your eating...if you consume 6 meals and get a min. of 40 grams of protien per meal that is 240 right there and 40 grams is easy.. ------------------ | ||

If you can barely eat 180 grams a day then you are partaking in the wrong sport my friend. There is nothing comlicated about getting 300g of protein a day. Learn about diet and you will figure out how to get your protein. ------------------ | ||

Eat every 2 hours,make half of those meals a protein shake,preferably at least 50 or more grams per shake.That's a minimum of at least 200 or more grams,with just the shakes alone ------------------ | ||

At first it will be difficult for you to eat 5-6 times per day. Once your body gets used to it your metabolism will speed up and it'll be a piece of cake. Then whenever you don't eat a meal, your stomach will growl and you'll be hungry. Lot's of reg. tuna and solid white albacore, whole eggs, fish(salmon,etc.), lean hamburger meat, lean steak and lots and lots of protein shakes. I spend about $200/week in groceries and about $120/month in protein shakes. It can get very expensive. ------------------ | ||

Amateur Bodybuilder Posts: 258 |
Yeah.....that sounds pretty damn good right about now...... You see? It's that easy, I'm going to eat a chicken sandwich. Chicken breast (lots of protein) and bread (some carbs) and maybe even a lemonade or something like that for more simple carbs.... ------------------ | ||

Hey bro. I've got a solution for you. Especially if you're paying more for your protein drinks than you are for your grocery bill! This is my standardised letter that I'm sending to bros when they email me asking for more info. If you'll notice, the free shipment is over but I'm still sending out free samples. Whey protein isolate for $6 per lb! This is totally legit and I have refrences to prove it upon request. I'm doing this to help out some iron bros save a lot of cash and get access to the highest quality protein. It's easy to be fooled by supplement companies about the quality of their products. Just for the sake example, Optimum Nutrition sells a whey protein product that they claim is 100% whey protein or so it says on the label. That is meant to mislead people who don't know much about protein. What they mean by "100%" is that all the protein that is in there originates from whey, not eggs, beef, milk, etc; their 100% whey protein is far from one hundred percent. They take a high quality protein such as the one I'm "selling" and mix in cheap fillers that degrade the quality and pull one over on unsuspecting customers. Look at their figures: One scoop of 29.4g, which contains 22 grams of protein. If you do the math, you'll find that equals <75% protein! The other 1/4 of this is garbage that is put in there to take up room, screw you out of your money, and hinder your gains. But hey, look how cheap it is! At >75% protein, you are left with about 3.5 pounds of denatured, undigestable protein in that 5lb container that will cause "bloating, gas," and abdominal cramps (source: http://www.proteinfactory.com/wheyconrate.htm). My protein is pure, unadulterated, raw, whey protein isolate derived from cross flow microfiltration of white cheese whey and dried cold to avoid denaturation and is 98% digestable (I have Certificate of Analysis to prove it). Do you want to pay over $7 a pound for the inactive protein thats in O.N.'s 100% protein, throw away your money and your potential muscular gains and ingest the rest of that garbage that makes up the rest of the 5lbs? Or do you want to invest in a quality product like Created Perfection's protein and get way more than you are paying for. Afterall, Optimum Nutrition is "cheaper," right?? All powder is unflavored. That's part of what makes this a great deal. It's very hard to find something pure and unflavored, unless you're ready to pay nearly $20 bucks per lb. This is because unflavored whey is made from white cheese which is expensive due to the small supply of this sweet smelling powder. Most whey is made from cheedar by-products which has a pungent, soured odor and tastes horrible unless it's sweetened. They can't produce an unflavored product from cheedar because its horrible taste would discourage any additional sales. Created Perfection's protein is made from white cheese whey. It is very expensive as there aren't many labs that produce it. In fact the only one that I know of is the one where I get my shipments, and it's in France. Part of the reason that I'm shipping out free samples is becasue I want people to see for themselves the difference white cheese can make. Even though it's unflavored, it has a sweet, buttery aroma. Only because it's from white cheese, it will assume the taste of anything added to flavor it such as fruit or chocolate. It's not premixed that way because you want to pay for protein, not sweetners. If you want an awsome treat, try mixing it with pina colada mix and ice cream! It sure beats plain 'ol vanila. With a product that is already flavored, making up new tasty shakes is nearly impossible. TOTAL CALORIES: 112 CALORIES FROM PROTIEN: 104 =93%! Total Fat: 0g Total Carb: 0g Sugars: 0g Sodium: 47g Protein: 26g I'm not selling anything right now, but I am offering free samples. I'm not scheduled to begin sales till later. All that I ask in return is that you help me promote my product if you like it (and I know you will!). To request a free sample, it is important that you contact me via email and ask if I have enough protein in stock to send your free sample. I currently only have 50lbs on hand. If I ok it, send enough money to cover shipping and handleing ($6); Canadaian residents add $2, all others email me. The sample size will amount to about a pound of powder. My next shipment is due to arrive latter this month. If I have samples in stock, send funds to: Created Perfections To receive a memo in the mail whenever $6/lb WPI sales begin, send me an email including your mailing address. [[email protected]]. Thanks for your help bro. Your new source for protein, Jason Steward | ||

lowfat milk man. I just drink a glass or two with each of my 3 meals(plus 3 pro drinks) and that milk adds up to like 50-60 grams of protein over the day! | ||

I only eat about 120 grams a day and I'm strong as hell. I don't believe there is any point in eating 75-100 grams at one time. Your body can only absorb 30-35 grams at a time, so consuming large amounts of protein is the same as consuming large amounts of carbohydrates or fat, it just goes to waste | ||

The whole 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight, is basically religious dogma by now. Unfortunately, this dogma was largely created by muscle mags and supplement companies. The daily protein requirements for John Q. Normal 5'8" 180lb 18%BF, is only about 45grams of protein a day. No one, save Dorian Yates, needs 300g of protein a day. It only takes 80g of protein to construct one lb of lean muscle tissue. There's just no fucking way your body is going to use even more than half of that , each day to build muscle, even if you're using like 2grams of test per week/ 3 A50 a day. PERIOD!

The shakes do it for me. It is a easy way to make sure you are getting good calories and protein. Not empty calories. Plus eat like a horse!! I have gained 15 lbs. in 3 weeks. My bench has went up 75lbs. I think this working. My workout partner is all natrual and he doesn't know that I am on the juice. He can't figure it out. He is trying to add a nickle a week to his bench and I am going like a weed. I tell him it's all in the diet!!! ------------------ | ||

Can someone here provide a reference for the guy who is selling the $6/lb protien? Here's a couple good ways to get protien. Eat a whole chicken a day, 2-3lbs of red meat, protien shakes (which I through peanut butter in for various reasons), beans/rice, and a few more protien shakes. Right now with my metabolism going nuts, I'm up to around 5700-6100 calories a day and 400 grams of protien a day, except when I go on dates...don't need to be choking my girlfriend with protien farts. Has anyone figured out how much protien can be found in a whole chicken yet? LoL (as I'm half way through this one) --==meanOne==-- ------------------ Owner of "The Anabolic Clinic" UPDATED: 01/02/01 | ||

Hey whacker, What do you think that muscle is made of? Protein you say? Lets look at your 45g/ day idea... Lets say that you weigh 150 (I say 150 because you probably don't weigh much as you're only getting 45g of protein a day) unless you are fat. You want to weigh 180lbs. Thirty lbs of muscle is equalivant to 12,750g. Let's say that 75% of that muscle's weight is protien. That would make the muscle that you want to gain contain 9,560g of amino acids (protien). You will need to consume at least 9560g of protein for that muscle. If you are going to put on 30lbs in 5 months, that would mean you consuming 63.75g of extra protein per day to gain that EXTRA muscle. That is considering that all protein that you eat will be digested. The average digestability of protein is about 80%. That means we loose 20% making us need at least 76.5g of extra protein for that muscle. Of that 125g of extra protein, not all of it will be allocated into muscle. Some will be needed to compose enzymes, some for immune function, some for reconstruction of skin, and various cellular repairs. At 140lbs, and low bodyfat, you are probably going to have to allocate 50% of your protein into intracellular maintenence and cellular repair due to natuarl aging of the tissues. Half of that protein intake will be taxed by tissue other than muscle. So that means that we are going to have to consume at least twice as much to account for that leaving a defiency of 250g of protein.
Now, Whacker (Newbie), don't come in here raising hell like you are the supreme supplemental steroid guru to the stars... You don't know your ass from your elbow if you think 45g (.2g/lb) per day of protein is going to get you anywhere in this world.

Did you guys know that a 6" roasted chicken breast from subway has 25g of protein in it? I don't think that includes the cheese. So if you get a 12" double meat with cheese and bacon, that's over 100g of protein. I ate there twice today. I am glad they give out stamps or I would be more poor than I already am... | ||

whacker: there are other reasons to consume alot of protien. protein is the least efficient macronutrient at being converted to fat, it's not even close. if you are significantly over maintence calories and eat alot of fat, you will get fat. carbs are the same way after a period of time. the first few days of overfeeding they are less efficient than fat at being stored but that quickly ends when they are chronicly overeaten. whey protein also boosts the immune system. |
