heteropedro, eat breakfast before you run or you'll just burn up muscle instead of fat.

Yes, you shouldn't run on an empty stomach.
Yes you should bring lots of food to school, a couple of ham sandwiches, a chicken breast and some bread, and some fruit. That'll power you through the day.
Don't forget to drink plenty of water during class or at lunch.

Bump.

Why not bump this? So many people don't even know how to eat properly.

The fructose in some fruits amounts to simple sugars... which are carbohydrates. Granted there isn't very much in most fruits it still must be counted as so.

Are you trying to tell me that 208+ grams of protein a day isn't enough? To gain weight you need carbs... to gain muscle you need protein and carbs. This is all based on my weight of 158 lbs. If you weight more than that, add to each total accordingly but keep the percentages intact.

Yes I know this. The 40/40/20 combination you're talking about is great for maintaining your body once you get to a point that you're satisfied. But when you are trying to gain mass and weight you need a lot more carbs than usual. If you were to eat 40% of your calories from protein that would amount to 400-450g of protein a day. Your body can't process that much... it is physically impossible to do so.

Try eating that meal plan for a few days. And if you still want more protein then drink a few shakes during the day as well. You'll feel great. It balances out your entire body while allowing you to gain muscle and weight.


Good Luck

Industry, whats up with the fruit and white rice in your last meal?

What's your bf%, and how fast is it rising on this diet? What I want to know is how much fat are you putting on in addition to muscle...

I just happen to like cantaloupe. :). No serously I am just trying to mix up the carbs and get some simple sugars in my diet. I meant to say Brown rice... I don't know why I put white there... hey it was late.

I haven't measured my BF since I started but I am definately not fatter by any means. And if I am I don't notice it. I am getting stronger and I look more "ripped" than I did a few weeks ago.

Don't know how much sway this holds with people becase science is always proving itself wrong. But a team of scientists and doctors did a comprehensive study on the effects of eating during certain parts of the day and weight. Conclusion: There is no difference. They said that it doesn't matter when you eat and that the no carbs after 8 rule doesn't really make a difference.

Don't know how true this is but I will try to find the journal it is in and post the link. I thik it was JAMA.

Pub Med is one of the best online medical journals ro refer to when you are backing up or re-inforcing your posts or various views.

White rice is a poor carbohydrate to eat as it has a high GI and has also been refined, processed etc to remove parts of the grain. All refined, processed carbohydrates such as white bread and rice (when we say white we actually mean refined) make poor carbohydrate choices. Careful when buying brown rice as some manufacturers simply add a dye to the rice making it resemble wholegrain. Look for rice packets which specifically express "wholemeal" or "wholegrain" on the cover.

*Edit: Industry's CFP ratios are actually were good. I always recommend 50-60% Carbohydrates, 20-25% Fats and 20-25% Proteins to recreational strength athletes myself.

Why not make this a sticky?

Anyway, ANY suggestions for food, preferably with how much carbs and proteins etc. they approxmatically contain would be greatly appreciated.

Also, anyone have any book recommendations on this? Preferably books that might have been published in Europe too.
