Please enlighten me, since I am wrong?

Since bulking is pretty much from body building, I'd say it's relevant. Most of the information everyone is using is from people who compete, either cutting or bulking, so yeah it works. Also, my post are from the person who believed carbs are the most important thing in bulking when that is clearly wrong, carbs has a role…

Oh really? How much? My understanding of why a steroid work is because it allows you the body to create more growth hormone and because enters the blood stream faster it allows for easier muscle repair. I never knew it allows one to eat more protein.

So, your thought process is because they take a steroid they automatically take more protein? I just want to clarify this. Do you also think because they take the steroid they don't have to lift weights too?

I am curious on how taking a steroid effects protein intake. That's a new one.

I'm not arguing, the fact is the majority of actual body builders have high protein around 200-400 grams, moderate carbs and moderate fat Of course this all comes down to total calories.. It totally makes no sense to say "protein, more protein" on cutting if you your body is supposedly only able to have so much protein.…

I did read, you said weight not mass.

Yep, I linked a body building site. As, since the main goal of those particular people seems to be more reliable for they are on stage and there careers are on the line. Some one might say Jay Cutter takes 1000 grams of carbs, and that is true but that man eats like 10k+ calories, so really is it high or moderate depending…

It's actual " learn body" weight, not 1 gram per pound of body weight If you're fat 300 pounds you don't need 300 grams of protein. Of course protein has limitations, all macros do. The point is protein is the most important when building muscle bulking/cutting. Carbs fats(both can do the same as the body will break down…

Put it in a bowl with mayo and eat it.

Sprints and weights, I don't recommend long distance running to anyone unless they are doing a long distance race.

I rather go by a track record than appearance. I believe that is important I would need to see other peoples results, credentials before getting a trainer. On the other hand, if a personal trainer or a random person came up to me (and was blatantly overweight or underweight) and I didn't ask them for advice I would walk…

No it means you don;t have the test to build muscle like a man. It's fact.

And you're a female. I love how this community believes everything is so simple, everyone must gain or lose the same. I should open my journal up and show how things aren't always so simple but I know even then I'd get you must been not telling the truth you're lying about grams or not measuring right. The problem I have…

Implying he was a dwarf because his calories was a certain amount was sketchy. So, I totally understand the OP point on slander, wrong word choice but people on here need to chill, both people giving advice and taking advice. It's just a community board. If you want real advice I'd stick to a real trainer or nutritionist,…

Eggs, hamburger, coconut oil, butter, protein powder, chicken, fruits and vegs for vitamins/ fiber (you'll need it) If you can eat peanut butter I would, it usually has no cholesterol and is very calorie dense. Eat breakfast, then 2 hours later have a shake, then eat lunch then have another liquid meal 2 hours later again.…

Hybrid: Mostly foods that are rich in nutrients and vitamins. Once I got the protein fats fiber, and all the vitamins I need (with some extra antioxidants for recovery) I'd just "carb up" still paying attention to sugar. so I could get the calories necessary to reach 300-500 extra calories a day. I think the thing to…

A person can lose weight by putting their finger down there throat and start vomiting but that is not good advice. What is the point of losing weight if you're still unhealthy?

Fine do broccoli the point still stands.

A little off topic, but the majority of woman I know don't have a gallbladder anymore, most are overweight. I wonder if someone made a topic of people who wanted to lose weight are overweight and had their gallbladder removed and posted saying yes or no. It would be interesting to see if there was some correlation between…

You make no point once you or anyone says: calorie in vs calorie out. It either matters or not. Me and some other said it's more than just that and got shut down.

Also, he didn't just eat twinkies! Espresso, Double: 6 calories; 0 grams of fat Hostess Twinkies Golden Sponge Cake: 150 calories; 5 grams of fat Centrum Advanced Formula From A To Zinc: 0 calories; 0 grams of fat Little Debbie Star Crunch: 150 calories; 6 grams of fat Hostess Twinkies Golden Sponge Cake: 150 calories; 5…

Google the Twinkie diet. It's been done. And if I recall correctly, his health markers did improve due to the weight loss. Now the next question you need to ask yourself, is, no matter how much someone loved pop tarts, would they really want to eat a diet containing nothing but that? The point is clearly a calorie is not…

Exactly, if a calorie is just calorie in and out and it doesn't matter what you eat as long as you're on a deficit. I really want to watch someone eat in a caloric deficit with nothing but lets say something like Pop tarts. Let it be tracked by a scientist, a RTD other professionals and see the results on healthy level…

THIS!

Losing BFP is the only real way to get the abs to appear. I am not sure if you're over eating but it looks like you're up in age, and sadly as we get older it's harder to gain muscle and our hormones act different. I'd make sure you're getting enough healthy fats to promotes hormones, then have your adrenaline hormone and…

MFP sucks at estimating how many calories you burn with exercise. I'd suggest not logging it and if you're losing too much weight or gaining too much weight adjust accordingly. I am not losing weight and myfitnesspal told me I could eat an extra 300 calories if I lift or do H.I.T on a particular day. It's complete wrong…

If you're stressed like it appears, you could be hindering weight loss by the stress (cortisol). I'm not sure it's over eating and that is too general and always seems to be the first thing people will say, "you're eating to much." It could be, but why put the effort to log in here and not really find out what you eat? I'd…

It's awesome! I recommend staying away from carbs like sugars as much as possible. I am Carbohydrates 182 (35 %) Fat 92 g (40 %) Protein 130 g (25 %) This is my own macros, not generated by myfitnesspal . I'm usually under my estimates on protein and carbs by around 20-50 and sometimes I go over, but it all balances out.…
