  • I've made a large batch today I'm just looking for ideas to try out in small amounts as I've run out of room to freeze right now
  • Oh all of this is per pound of body weight
  • I'm currently losing body fat for definition I use: .8 for protein .45/5 for fat Then just vary carbs spending on if I'm bulking or trying to lose fat. Bulking I use my remainer for carbs. When trying to lose weight I reduce my carbs a bit and up fats and protein to say .9-1 protein .6 maybe .7 for fats, you may need to…
  • How long have you been training? I started using a soya protein after 3/4 months of training once my nutrition was fairly healthy compared to previous. I only use it after workouts and the day after when my muscles are healing, I also use it img I have a veggie or low carb day. What were your reasons for wanting to use one?
  • Thank you I will check it out now!
  • As I said I'm new to this further on in my training this will be a great reference I'm sure but right now this works for me. Thanks for this info for the future though
  • Half allowance for carbs not calories
  • I don't want to bloat myself, but I'm trying to maintain muscle mass whilst doing minimum training with exams on. I'm a fair way below my calories and have only eaten half my allowance for calories. Also I don't feel near satisfied
  • I weight 112lbs whilst it's recommend I get 50, and most days I get around the 45 mark and go over, I feel best currently eating 41

  • I don't usually I've just somehow managed to eat under today normally I'm fine and as I'm 90g under I feel okay to eat more

  • I have t used quorn in a while I used to live on it! Maybe I need to go back to that!
  • Yes I'm new to this, whilst I still feel I could cut it down this information is very useful and appreciated, I was thinking this was meant to be the less stressful version, so hearing I can treat fat the same as protein in term of getting the right amount is great news! Thank you!
  • After looking at my diary my main fat intake comes from my meat, avocados and the granola I use so I will be changing that in my next shop! As for meat I don't eat chicken or turkey so I guess I'll just have to change my cooking method and find some leaner cuts.
  • I'm new to IIFYM and haven't fully grasped it yet. My fat just adds up from my meals I have not yet found meals which work. I'm basically asking for what sorts of things IIFYM people eat which is low enough in fat.
  • Yes I do go over but I don't worry about that as I'm still trying to find what works best for me calorie-wise I'm just looking for ways to cut out some of the fat which would in turn stop me going over, or over as much, I've been on a very low calorie diet for some time as that is what I was advised but I am drained and…
  • This sounds do-able! Whenever I tried to work it out myself I always came out with something that seems to large to be able to manage. Thanks for this!

  • Hey there, I was just wondering since your and aspiring personal trainer if you could help me with an issue? I'm currently studying so only have 2-3 hours to play with in the gym for the next month whilst exams are ongoing.

  • Oops sorry! With 45 minutes strength training just to maintain whilst I can fit in my normal work out?

  • I switched to dairy free, although it's still a working process and I occasionally slip up
  • I've also been taking part in weight training and did gymnastics as a child so the foundation may have been there for me, I cannot hold longer than 3 seconds yet though
  • Can you still taste the powder at all?
  • I bought the unflavoured version as it was cheaper and I'm really struggling. I've tried adding it to meals too, only thing it works for is portion control I can't finish anything I've oncluded it in for the taste
  • When I decided to try yoga someone recommended 'yoga with Adriene' on YouTube. She has sequences for all abilities along with one move videos and she tells you how to adapt a move to something you can do with ease. I really felt I understood yoga after doing one of her videos so relaxing!
