    I would say you are better to go with more than 6 meals when bulking...Shoot for 8-9! And I would go with a higher carb to protein ratio... something like C45% P40% F15% ratio at around 4000 calories... Considering your size and the fact that you are 'supplementing' chances are you could bump up the calories to 4500...

    How did you get your body comp tested... got any photos?

    I disagree. I wouldn't have your overall diet being carbs ratio higher than protein. I would shoot for P45,C35,F20.

    If you want a TRUE lean bulk, you are going to NOT want to mix fat/carbs together at the same meal. Still include all 3 macros, yes, but you must group them together when they can provide lean mass and not fat (__!__). You still eat the same amount/breakdown of actual food, it's just HOW you eat it that determines HOW you come out looking.

    I.E., selectively eating intelligently will work, but shoveling down the same stuff and expecting your body to just "know" what you want it to do, is not going to happen.

    Why such a small dextrose amount PWO? Your Carb to protein needs to be 2:1 at this meal. I would change that to 1 scoop of protein and atleast 1/3 cup dextrose (about 51 carbs, 165 calories i believe) JMO

    I don't see any places that you blatantly mixed fats with carbs... but I was wondering about your milk. Are you talking whole milk or skim milk? Because the whole milk is definitely a mixture of fats and carbs. Other than that I would stick with the above suggestions and up your protein intake so it is slightly higher than your carb intake... and you should be good to go. Goodluck

    Yea how can you call the low ammount of fat in tuna mixing fats and carbs? It is nearly impossible to take in any kind of protein besides egg whites without atleast taking in 1-2 grams of fat. Hell even a whey protein shake has atleast 1 gram of fat. Where is he specifically mixing the carbs and fats? I would guess they may not like that your using peanuts... they wouldn't be my nut of choice or anyone elses. I prefer almonds... and so does everyone else. Lots of fiber and very low ammount of carbs. But that is all I can really see.

    Daman will you clarify as I am curious too

    This is just me brother. The fat concept it true that it is hard to rid ALL fats sometimes, but I was being very analytical here. But if it works for you, thats the most important part.

    LOL.... ok so what kind of protein should he (and myself) eat then that has 0 fat in it? Even chicken breasts have like .5-1 gram of fat.... it is virtually impossible not to have atleast 1-2 grams of fat with your protein no matter what form or how lean. **** even whey protein has 1 gram of fat. Suggestions?? Cause I am just as anal as you are, I was just unaware that a few grams of fat was considered mixing fats/carbs. I thought on both sides 1-5 grams either way was considered acceptable. I mean its the same with carbs... its almost impossible to not have atleast 1-4 carbs per meal if you use whey protein or peanut butter.... **** even salad dressing has 1 carb in it if it is full fat. The only time of the day I get 0 carbs in when I eat tuna with full fat mayo.

    Really what kind is that?


    Even allthewhey has < 1g fat.... which I count as 1. ON's whey has 1 gram also. Like I said... it is virtually impossible to take in 0 fat with any form of protein. Unless you have a george forman grill I heard those things kick ass for melting the fat out of meats.

    I am sure if you are patient he will reply. But I would suggest if you are unsure or don't think you can organize your diet on your own that you go with one of Swole's programs. I have heard nothing but great things about them.

    Nah bro.... just instead of using Tuna which has 1.5 grams of fat per serving... try using tuna if you are going to eat the oats. Almost no fat with some brands.... like .5g and if you use a grill or something I am sure you can make it so there is 0 fat. Use tuna for your Pro/Fat meals... just try to keep your fats below 2 grams when taking in large ammounts of carbs like that. You should be fine.

    isopure does have fat but since by fda standards they can list it under 0 grams since it has less then one gram..

    Even oatmeal has fat!! 3 g's per 1/2 cup, so to be anal enough like that is ridiculous Daman...I figure if its less then 5 g's you are okay, over 15g is a fat meal....
