Should I Count Incomplete Proteins?
my question is im currently bulking and i was wondering should i count incomplete proteins towards my total protein intake? such as those found in breads or peanuts.or should i just count the completes? i was wondering this because if i just count the completes then im going to have to eat a ton more food to hit my 395grams of protein a day.

im not sure off hand , but when i have oats or whole grain bread , peanut butter and so forth they probably make up 15% or so.

Incomplete proteins still are calories and should be counted, if you consume enough protein over the course of a day you are going to eat enough good proteins to make up for an incomplete ones.

Incomplete protein should be counted for CALORIE purposes, yes.
They should not be counted toward your muscle building protein intake, no.

dont fret over incomplete proteins. Your body has a aminoacid pool where aminoacids are constantly circluating. What you eat add to that pool so the different aminos from different sources will blend and give you a full spectrum of aminoacids. The protein quality in each meal is of no interest at all realy unless you live on just ONE source of protein for weeks at a time.
Different foods complement eachother very well and balance the pool out.

ok, i should count them as calories but not towards my muscle building protein calories. so where do these calories come into play? what i mean is im currently eating 395g carbs , 395g protein, and 88g fat a day. these all make up my total of 3,949 calories a day which is calculated based on the bulking sticky. were do i count these calories? i will be going over my 3,949 calories a day if i count these seperate. any thoughts?

i realyy dont see why you wouldnt count incomplete proteins in your overall protein intake
i presume you are refering to protein found in legumes and oats for example
i count all proteins towards my total value except for those found in veggies or fruit

Great post Johna, as always. The best part was when you said certain proteins compliment each other. Proteins are made of Amino acids so you can combine certain foods to make up a protein.
I'm pulling my hair out over here trying to find a sheet that I had from one of classes. Showing what foods you can combine to form complete proteins. You dont neccasirly need to eat steak all day to get complete proteins.

I'm working on it. I remember getting a sheet on what foods to combine to form complete proteins and it opened my mind big time to what combo foods to eat.
This class was about 2 years ago and I know I wont find it. I'm looking so if I do I'm definitely going to post it.

if any of you have the arnold modern encyclopedia of bodybuilding there is a small section in the diet chapter that lists foods you can combine to form complete proteins. but id like to have a longer list as well.

Even us VETs pull up old threads to learn new stuff everyday, usually I won't bump them but this one was left unanswered and I think it was good info.
lol, just goes to show we don't know everything and still research for our answers also.. Notice how the seniors here don't start all the new threads that are repetitively the same but rather use the search function.
Enjoy.-B D
