If you are asking what are good high protein foods?
Chicken is like 31 grams of protein for 100 grams of chicken. Really good per caloric intake.
Now this program thing?0 -
eggs/egg whites
Greek yogurt
Lean cuts of:
Beef
Pork
Chicken
Turkey
Other Meats
Cottage Cheese
off the top of my head
edit: oops, missed the "program" part. I assume you're asking for recommendations for a high protein eating regimen that is good for body builders... since I'm not one I'll defer that part to them0 -
From what I've heard from a friend who lifts, if you are in the "bulking stage" of body building it's important to get lots of good calories in, eat 6-8 meals a day and eat lots of protein, I've heard anywhere from 1g-2g per kg of bodyweight. Eat lots of chicken, egg whites, white fish, extra lean ground turkey breast, london broil, turkey, etc.
Hope that helps!0 -
Calculate the calories per gram of protein. Anything under 10 calories per gram of protein is generally alright. The closer to the magical 4 calories per gram you can get the better.
Here's a list:

Edit: And yes. Proteins are what create muscle and such. You need them. You need a lot of them. There are formulas out there, but basically double whatever MFP tells you out of the box....maybe even triple it.0
