X- Muscle Building Meal Plans: Are you confused about protein? Not sure whether you're eating enough protein or even what type of protein you should be eating? You're not alone. In this video I show you a different way to think about the protein you're getting in your diet in attempt to build new muscle. Most of the time guys focus solely on the amount of the protein they're eating without ever considering where they are getting their protein from. This is a big mistake when it comes to determining how much muscle you will ultimately be able to build. When it comes adding new lean muscle, there is no denying the fact the consuming protein is important. Protein comes from two primary sources - animal in the form of poultry, beef, fish, yogurt, eggs, and milk and vegetables in the form of legumes, nuts, seeds, nut butters, grains and beans. Most often we rely on the same sources of proteins over and over and this can cause you to be deficient in some key amino acids that are needed to complete your protein profile. Without the essential amino acids in place, it becomes much harder for your body to build new muscle. In these cases, supplements like ATHLEAN-Rx that supply high quality whey isolate protein and casein protein become even more valuable. Because it's very hard to get all the protein that you need in a day eating real food, getting it through supplements becomes even more logical. That said, unfortunately, the choices for supplemental protein can be far from good. The quality can be poor and the dollars wasted can be high. If you're going to turn to supplements to build muscle then you need to invest in a brand that you know can deliver high quality time in and time out. I obviously recommend ATHLEAN-Rx since I know what goes into each and every batch and the high quality and standards that are required for our protein to make it to market. However, you're totally fine trying to get it through good nutrition as well, and that is why I did this video for you. Hope this makes the whole protein issue and the difference between how much protein is needed to build muscle versus what type of protein builds the most muscle a lot clearer. For a complete step by step meal plan that already explains everything you need to know day by day then head to and get the ATHLEAN-X Training System

Please realize this is an old video. The science proves that Methionine shortens Lifespan. See Dr David Sinclair's book entitled Lifespan. IGF1 and MTOR are both elevated by working out. Eating animal products also jacks this up. There is a HUGE link to raised IGF1 and MTOR levels and Shortened Lifespan & Cancer. These are LOW in Vegans. It is believed to be the very mechanism as to why Vegans are HEALTHIER & LIVE LONGER than Omnivores. The trick is to eat PLANTS & FAST to keep these elevated levels isolated to the muscles to hypertrophy, but remain relatively low throughout the body.

The taste is unbearable, with too much sugar in it. 6 grams sugar in 19 grams ( a scoop) of powder! Read the list of ingredients before you buy. All three jars contain sucralose or Splenda, the artificial sweetener that causes gut upset. -
I am afraid to destroy a microbiome taking so much Splenda every day. Animal studies link sucralose to negative effects on the bacterial environment in the gut. I would love to buy the RX supplements from you as soon as you release an unflavored version without any artificial sweeteners and organic. The product is overpriced and has no refund.

Plant protein is great for avoiding the issues with whey like diarrhea. However research the brand you are buying. The green label project conducted a study on 150 proteins and their BPA and toxic metal levels and generally speaking, Plant had less BPA but had double if not more lead and arsenic than whey. For more info look up -Green Label Project Protein Powder-. The Green Label project rated Vega consistently at 1 star which is a very popular organic brand at Walmart and Target. The Orgain Brand at Costco is also garbage. Two stars.

The Incomplete Protein theory was started by someone unqualified (a Sociologist) NOT a Scientist & then took Decades to get it out of Basic Nutrition Courses.
Kidney disease is prevalent in the western world partly because people eat too much protein.
Dialysis Sucks. Transplant-long wait & then remaining life on immunosuppressants.
Plant source not inferior, but do have lower concentration of protein, fat, sulphur etc-

He briefly mentioned that soy protein isn't so good for men - this is based on the misunderstanding between endogenous oestrogen and phytoestrogens. Research is pretty clear that soy isn't an issue for men because phytoestrogens don't affect the body like our own endogenous oestrogen odes. If anything, it may even have a stabilising effect on oestrogen levels (albeit in very large quantities) as suggested by some research.

But how about amount? I want to know how much I need to consume per day, some say have a target of 1. 7 grams x bodyweight in kg, some say 1 gram per pound of bodyweight, some say 1. 2 - 1. 5 grams per pound lb, some say around 70 grams of protein per day. idgaf about any of these recommendations, generally I am doing 1. 3 - 1. 7 as it seems most balanced but I'd like Jeff's opinion on this matter.

Have body composition test done to determine the amount of lbs of Muscle and lbs of body fat. Take 1oz of protein per lbs of muscle for ones body composition over 5 meals a day or every 4 hrs. The body needs 91 micronutrients a day. The body can only digest 20-25 grams of protein per 3hrs overage discarded thru stool so figure out ways for your body. From a Body Building Judge

Nice Video clip! Forgive me for chiming in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you tried - Chireetler Fitness Brethren Rule (probably on Google? It is a great one of a kind guide for learning some amazing body building workouts minus the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my old buddy Taylor after many years got astronomical results with it.

When I ate meat I took in 170 grams of protein per day. Since I went vegan I'm down to about 100 grams per day. I carry more muscle mass and less fat now than ever and my workouts are about the same. I don't know why and don't really care but I do think protein intake recommendations are blown up too high by the supplement/food industry to some degree.

Great video as always. Just a suggestion. How about redoing some of these old videos for 2019? Your info is solid but your presentations have come a long way since you made these vids. You could use it as an opportunity to give a better presentation via the touch screen you use now plus you can expand on it with updated research etc.
