Swole Brehs, Yall really eating this much for building muscle!!!

[The Coochie Assassin]

The protein requirements are always exaggerated and I think these protein supplement companies funded these damn studies or something. But when bulking, I just make sure to hit 1G per pound. I usually go over but hit 1G at minimum. 2G per pound is overkill and your body ain't using all that damn protein.

Carbs is where it's at to pack on the pounds tho. Easy to eat high carb meals.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

20 times bodyweight lbs in calories doesn’t sound bad, especially if you’re a hard gainer

That’s around 4000 calories for a 200lb person, which isn’t that much if you’re active and lifting trying to put on weight.

Now with protein its a little less than ~2 times bodyweight in kilograms, not pounds.

Someone who knows wtf they’re talking about.

4k calories isn’t even enough needed imo, depending on the person

 

[O.T.I.S.]

I almost threw up when I read that article about how much The Rock eats


Meal 1 (857 calories): 10 oz. filet, 4 egg whites, 5 oz. oatmeal or Cream of Wheat

Meal 2 (947 calories): 8 oz. chicken, 2 cups white rice, 1 cup broccoli

Meal 3 (946 calories): 8 oz. halibut, 2 cups white rice, 1 cup asparagus

Meal 4 (773 calories): 8 oz. chicken, 12 oz. baked potato, 1 cup broccoli

Meal 5 (816 calories): 8 oz. halibut, 1.5 cups white rice, 1 cup asparagus

Meal 6 (846 calories): 8 oz. filet, 9 oz. baked potato, salad

Meal 7 (285 calories): 30 grams casein protein; 10 egg whites with onions, peppers, and mushrooms
Here's all the food The Rock eats in a single day

nikkas think I be joking when I tell them the amount these legit dudes eat to gain

And it’s not just protein shakes.

 

[Luke Cage]

OP like

eat your food lil nikka

 

[TNOT]

Pro bodybuilders on drugs fooled nikkas. Eating 5000kcal a day makes sense when you are 300+ lb of muscle. Most natural people would do fine on about half of that at the most. Protein is a little overrated too. I'd say you can probably get away with .6-.7g/lb body mass.

True

Your body only processes so much protein.

 

[All Women Are Queens]

I wish I could eat that much.

 

[Rice'N Beckford]

nikkas posted the rock’s daily meal plan like he isnt on roids lol

 

[PhonZhi]

I used to wanna be big and swole.

Not anymore, y'all can have that look

 

[Off the Onion]

Stop being a p*ssy and eat food

But yeah you gotta eat.

 

[Olmec]

All you need get chocolate tho.

 

[I Really Mean It]

Eating that much protein on a daily basis is not healthy. fukk up your kidneys and heart for muscles, brehs.

Dude is also juiced up

Not anymore, y'all can have that look

Yup, I'm toned and ripped, weighing around 190 and standing at 6'3". Work out once a week and eat healthy, with a Muscle Milk protein shake in the morning. I prefer the lean muscular look to the freakish physiques I see a lot of brehs chasing. fukk looking like the Rock.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Protein is actually just to build and repair
Carbs are supposed to be your quick energy source while fat is supposed to be your long term energy source.

Thats why people carb load for certain shyt... like sporting events (basketball players, football players, boxers, runners, cyclists, etc).

Or when people are trying to lose weight they cut carbs or damn near avoid carbs altogether and begin to use their stored fat for energy.

But carbs can turn into fat if not burned

 

[Serious]

And it’s not just protein shakes.

I used to think like this as well. But when i think back on it. There's a lot of broscience out there and thats why I believed it. What's for more important than just eating for calories is actually consuming a balanced meal plan. It's really all about nutrient density more so then calories. I'd take it a step even further and say a huge reason why most brehs arent seeing gains as quickly revolves around not consuming enough vegetables.

Most of the shyt people rant and rave about in regard to supplementation shakes can be sourced through rotating a few vegetables in a diet.
