Differnet strokes for differnet folks

**IBdmfkr** · 02-28-2006, 04:16 PM

lol, what a waste of calories. Try splitting it in half and taking it half PWO and the other half 1hr later. Too much at one sitting.

**Testsubject** · 02-28-2006, 04:17 PM

I could never eat that after a workout, WAY too heavy, my stomach couldnt handle it.

agreed

**Smak** · 02-28-2006, 04:21 PM

That looks like a big pile of confusion.

Organize it better so I can make a better judgement.

Are you eating the fruit as well?

What exactly are you eating there? Thanks.

**IBdmfkr** · 02-28-2006, 04:26 PM

You say you're struggling to gain weight, I think your answer will be in your total caloric intake for each day, not cramming 2000calories at one sitting. I always shoot for 5-800 clean calories every 3hrs or 8times/day. Impossible not to grow with this protocol.

Well said.

The only way I see this working as a PWO is if he's throwing it all in a blender with the addition of his protein. Sometimes I will do this.

Alot of times I'll throw oats, peanut butter, milk, whey, cottage cheese, eggs and whatever else I have into a blender and drink it. This approach is good if you're trying to gain weight.

**IBdmfkr** · 02-28-2006, 04:35 PM

Not PWO though, you want dextrose and whey IMO because they are easily absorbed and digested when your muscles are ready to be saturated. Possibly in the morning or between meals this would work, still 2000calories is too much in one sitting, either way you look at it.

**Smak** · 02-28-2006, 04:40 PM

True.

Whey + Dextrose = better PWO

Between meals would be a better choice for this.

**taiboxa** · 02-28-2006, 04:55 PM

lol thi isnt diet forum but oh well
ok
too much fat can slow down the biosynthesis of protein during degredation of the polypepdtides. u woulda been better off w/ a buncha nanners and chickn in a blender w/ water for a pwo meal since fat isnt even abosrbed in the stomache it just sits there and makes it work harder and take longer to denature the amino's and digest the carbs.

infact MY BUDDY who is CUTTING (so he says) has reduced his calroies and cleaned up his diet-still eating over maint just eating better is GETTING BIGGER and STRONGER faster than he was when he was dirty bulking

**IBdmfkr** · 02-28-2006, 05:02 PM

Totally agree there Taiboxa, Clean bulks are much more effective for LBM and strength gains than a dirty bulk IMO. Also you look good year round

**novicenovicen** · 02-28-2006, 05:25 PM

I am a dirty bulker. And when I cheat I cheat. Like a couple slices of pizza.

**novicenovicen** · 02-28-2006, 05:25 PM

But I have no desire to look ripped. I wanna be worlds strongest man big. 300lbs 15%BF

**novicenovicen** · 02-28-2006, 05:26 PM

If I could be 400lbs. 15%bF or 250 7.5% BF I would be 400 lbs.

**taiboxa** · 02-28-2006, 05:28 PM

LoL 400 @ 15% is HUGE HUGE.. wow hard on body

Clean bulk and a clean cutting style diet are totally different though. 4500-5000 calories/day bulking as clean as possible is deff. doable and is highly effective when I am on cycle. Ofcourse I am also only a tad over 200lbs and have a extremely fast metabolism genetically.

only for a week at most LOL when going over 5k kCals add another 2k there and its barf city

cutting on other hand is easy to do clean... since you need to be in a clorie deficit and clean food just gets old fast its easy to eat proper portions.

**IBdmfkr** · 02-28-2006, 05:58 PM

Yea, 7K/day would be tough on a clean diet. I'll stick to 5K

**TripleHHH** · 02-28-2006, 10:58 PM

its not the intake of your calories or protein..its the consistency...you need to do it througout the day....shakes only help a bit to gain wait..unless ur a bonebag...u need solid food..tuna..eggs..shakes..lean beef..even pasta from time to timne///...its all about frequency and consistency..ur diet can be super clean but if u only eat 4 times a day its gonna do u more harm then good oppose to if u were to eat dirty..ie...hamburgers..etc...4 times.....the TRICK is to eat clean as much as possible..litterally till u almost puke....thats how u gain weight..

**Boricua Pump** · 03-01-2006, 02:45 AM

Tasted nasty eh?

**L.Priest** · 03-01-2006, 12:49 PM
