Just
musclemonsters, honest question. Even with a 30g post workout protein shake and another 20g protein shake in the afternoon, I'm hitting about 120g of protein on my workout days and the day after (I rest on the weekends. I weigh 200lbs and can't eat any more food that this comfortably, so yeah, I'm strong but have never been able to bulk up. What the heck are these people doing to get a gram of protein per pound they weigh eating (i. e. maybe I'm not understanding something here)!

Can you do a video showing how much an 8 ounce steak would be in terms of protein per 8 ounce, or if your making your own beef hamburger patties or one piece of chicken breast burger say a 6 ounce, 7 or 8 ounce how much protein would that be. Its very difficult to calculate how much 20 grams of protein is in a meal. Say, here are your top 10 foods for protein and how much you get per cup or ounces. There dosen't seem to be many videos on this.

Great info! If you're eating to much protein it just turns into expensive carbohydrates in your body. Also, if you're carb cycling, on high carb days carbs are protein sparing so you won't need as much protein that day.

This may be the most challenging part for me because I might not be consuming enough protein throughout my whole week, but I will continue to put the best effort in down the road. Thanks for the video!

At 6'5, 260 I should be eating roughly 300g a day of protein. Good lord. That's 4 1/2 chickens a day, 42 eggs, or 15 8oz of fish. I'd have to be eating meat all day and night.

Ok so with protein out of the way at 1. 2g per pound of body weight, how many grams of fat and carbs should I be aiming for?
