    lolz and your worried about looking like she-hulk ;PPP

    pick your macro's. I personally try to be at 35-45% of all foods I consume making it protein. most people I know recommend at least 1.5g per lb of lean muscle. So figure out what your body fat percentage is professionally, or use the scale for a guesstimate, multiply the percentage of body fat to your total weight and subtract that number by your total weight and then multiply that by 1.5g and I think you should know your daily intake lvl should be.

    I recommend consuming cottage cheese, lots of salmon, chicken, pork, steak, and eggs - at least a huge meal of one of these daily, and then having 2-4 protein shakes about 24g each on top of that.


    -make sure you are killing it in the gym... hard hard hard hard work or that protein is going to be nothing but an expensive poop.

    Definitely killing it at the gym. I can't go everyday working nights 3 days a week but all my other days I am there. I do what I can on my work days either using home weights, running or circuit training as soon as I get home before bed.

    That's wut up!!!

    Keep up the motivation - you already look great, now it's time to get the summer sexxxxy vibe cooking ;D

    Make it happen! stay sharp! Smile often! :drinker:

    So I finished my eas complete protein container and switched to an all whey product called dynamize ISO chocolate flavor. Which has really upset my stomach. I love the tase of the first container but it's a blend of milk protien and soy protein. And with all the rumor on soy I am too worried about going back. Also the dynamize has a god awful aftertaste I can seem to drown out after...ugh.


    Any advice? Allergy to whey? Or too much protein since it metabolizes faster than the soy?
