You need to lift HEAVY! I mean heavy!! Everyone on here is stronger than you think!! Lift Big....Eat Big and you have no option but to grow!! It isn't easy and sorry, but most people don't want to go past that comfort zone, because frankly it hurts.8

So is this the part where we start pounding on our chests and ripping our spaghetti string tank tops off while eating raw meat with our bare hands? Just want to make sure I time it right.16

Based on research, there's no benefit past .82g/lb and that's with a mark-up.

Keep reading the "research" or follow what every big guy has done? 1g of protein per pound is a MIN! In part because of the amount you need to eat.

Sounds to me like you need to brush up on "evidence hierarchy".8 -

She's referring to the get fat comment...In a surplus which is what is required to get big, you're going to put on both muscle and fat (not just pure muscle) which is why body builders do bulking and cutting cycles. Steroid use would have a blunting effect on how much fat you put on while in a surplus...but you'd still put on some.3 -

Ohh ok. I figure pure muscle is literally a muscle (a muscle is pure muscle right?) what comes with it is another story. So wait when you gain muscle you gain fat and need to re-lose it? That blows.1 -

Are those legal because Im all for it lmso ijs. But really that sucks and I had no idea. Learn something new everyday! I know a ton about dieting, but zip, zero about bulking - but at least I admit it and I don't go around giving advice about gaining muscle in detail... *COUGH* *COUGH*1 -

I understand you probably won't read that article, but you should. And not "every big guy" eats that amount. The person who wrote that article is big by natural standards (pic below). Well-researched science always trumps empirical evidence. I follow natural bodybuilders and their advice on building muscle and losing fat, since they don't rely on steroids/drugs. This is especially important for most people since they don't want to waste money on food/supplements in order to get to an unnecessary amount of protein. Reading the article I showed before will explain everything.

Current goal is to get into the 150s in weight, 8-10% body fat at 5'8.
You can eat and train the way you want for your goal. But a goal of 150lbs at 5'8" isn't what anyone would say is big. With clothes on, most people would even know you lift.2 -

No one said that was big. That's my goal for this year. I'll then have another goal after that. I don't know how big I can get, but you'd have to take into account bone structure, genetics, etc. It would probably be around 160 at 5-6% body fat, naturally, maybe 170s with a large bone structure. This article discusses that: https://www.muscleandstrength.com/expert-guides/bodybuilding-genetics
And honestly, that weight isn't bad for my height, naturally, at a low body fat. It's aesthetic and appealing to me. It's just a preference. I don't care to be a mass monster or anything. I also don't care if people don't think I "lift". That's just huge insecurity man. You need somebody, a stranger, to notice that you lift weights?
