Lean ground beef, how lean should i get?

[Leet141]

80% or 90% etc?

[abbot138]

Best you can get. My store has 93, ive heard guys on here talk about 96, ive never seen it, just do your best, 80 is not lean enough tho.

drop the rice!!!


use sweet potatoes and barely instead



And instead of protein shake before bed, I'd go with cottage cheese and almonds

[Leet141]

should i alternate from brown rice and sweet potatoe?

[xlxBigSexyxlx]

should i alternate from brown rice and sweet potatoe?

That would be better than just brown rice everything.

But I would alternate SP and barley


rice is pretty much garbage



Also, whats in the protein shake at night?

Im not seeing any fats in the diet. What are your goals?

[Leet141]

goals are to bulk up, the shake at night is half a serving of muscle juice. the stats on the muscle juice are with 2% milk

1272 cal
71g protien
28g fat
184 g carbohydrate

but i only take a half a serving at all times. I will be switching to whey once i finish this tub.

Do whatever bigsexy says

[novastepp]

that diet is holding very low fats... even for me. use a beef that is in the 90's and use steak or fish in place of some of that chicken when you can. you don't necessarily need to supplement fat, but it should at least come from your protein sources.

and i would also ditch the rice all together. not a fan at all. stick to potatoes. sweet, red, or just regular. i think they beat any carb choice. oats would be a second choice to potatoes though.
