[NeedAnabolics]

Cowboy Chris thanks for your reply, its 4500 calories the least, fluctuates all the way to 5000, i have a very fast metabolism. I already get stressed sometimes cause i eat every 2 hours, I dont know how I could add more food than that, I'm not juicing just all natural.

[sorel_C]

bro easy,, if thats the case the fats are your best friend,,, throw in a couple table sppin of mac oil, cocunut oil, olive oil,, into your meals,,, easy way to get additonal calories without eating when not hungry,,, theres a few appetite enhancers out there i know nuthing about them but other here must and thy'll probably drop a line

[NeedAnabolics]

yea bro my metabolism isn't a problem, its very fast, I'm still experimenting alot with food, and i'm seeing alot of results like i said, i just want maximum results cause i am extremly dedicated and want to know i'm doing eveything in my power to reach me goal.

630am RUn 30-45 min.
730: Bananna, Whey Shake, 1 cupYogurt

i would sub a diff carb source for the yogurt and banana. whey shake with skim and some fat free cottage cheese. not bad. and don't forget to hydrate with cold water post cardio.

900: 8 boiled eggs, 1 cup Oats



1130: Brown Rice, Ground Turkey, Flaxseed Oil, Peanut butter,

i wouldn't combine macros unless it was for satiety purposes. turkey is good. rice is borderline no. so i would cut the fats and stick with turkey and a preferably, better, carb source.

130: Casein Shake, Fruit, Peanuts

not pre workout. have some carbs and some protein that has substance. 8oz sweet potato, and 2 chicken breasts. if you want to grow. eat.

PWO330: 80g Pasta, Ground beef

you were using shakes earlier but decided not to have one PWO? hmm. whey and skim and cottage cheese again. whey+casein+pwo=oh yes.

PPWO600: Turkey Sanwiches w/ White bread turkey bacon, fruit, whey shake, juice.. cheap insulin

cheap fat gain. insulin delivered by your body provides a response, not a spike. this isn't anywhere near like injecting. do your belly a favor and stick to a quality pro/carb meal.

830: Chicken, Wheat Bread, Veggies, Flaxseed oil

chicken and veggies.

1030: Tuna, brown rice, peanut butter, veggies.

cut either the rice or peanut butter and again, have a substantial meal. 12oz steak and a potato.

8 meals a day, approx. 4500 Cals, 350 g protein, alot of carbs niceand approx 150g fat.

I kept this short so if someting pops up to you as wrong or maybe you think i need to change something please let me know. Thank you.

approximating a diet, i don't know how much i can help with that, but i'll do my best with what you have and have not provided. at this point it looks like dietary prep is lacking. you are bulking, sure, but you are just mindlessly throwing down calories. your composition reflects what you feed it. so keep it simple and clean and eat. meat, taters, veggies.

why cold water? room temperature water is easier on the body as far as assimilation is concerned, though not much difference as water is absorbed quickly, but just wondering why cold water specifically?

Maybe he is thinking cause it takes more calories for your body to use cold water?

that was a thought of mine, but i have yet to see a study that proves it, but if anyone has one i'd love to read it, that would be a nice way to burn some extra calories

I couldnt find it. Least not for now. I found this in the meantime:

For anyone trying to lose weight, this question is an exciting one! If you simply want to know if your body burns calories warming up the water, the answer is yes. But if you want to know if drinking a lot of ice water can help you lose weight, or keep weight off, this "yes" needs to be qualified with some calculations.

First of all, calories are case-sensitive. There are calories and then there are Calories. Calories with a big "c" are the ones used to describe the amount of energy contained in foods. A calorie with a little "c" is defined as the amount of energy it takes to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius.

What most people think of as a Calorie is actually a kilo-calorie: It takes one Calorie to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water 1 degree Celsius. So when you drink a 140-Calorie can of cola, you are ingesting 140,000 calories. There is no cause for alarm, because the conversion applies across the board. When you burn 100 Calories jogging a mile, you are burning 100,000 calories.

So, considering that the definition of a calorie is based on raising the temperature of water, it is safe to say that your body burns calories when it has to raise the temperature of ice water to your body temperature. And unless your urine is coming out ice cold, your body must be raising the temperature of the water. So calories are being burned.


Let's figure out exactly what you're burning when you drink a 16-ounce (0.5 liter) glass of ice water:

* The temperature of ice water can be estimated at zero degrees Celsius.
* Body temperature can be estimated at 37 degrees Celsius.
* It takes 1 calorie to raise 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius.
* There are 473.18 grams in 16 fluid ounces of water.

So in the case of a 16-ounce glass of ice water, your body must raise the temperature of 473.18 grams of water from zero to 37 degrees C. In doing so, your body burns 17,508 calories. But that's calories with a little "c." Your body only burns 17.5 Calories, and in the grand scheme of a 2,000-Calorie diet, that 17.5 isn't very significant.

But let's say you adhere to the "eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day" nutritional recommendation. In 64 ounces of water, there are 1,892.72 grams. So to warm up all that water in the course of a day, your body burns 70,030 calories, or 70 Calories. And over time, that 70 Calories a day adds up. So, while you definitely shouldn't depend on ice water consumption to replace exercise or a healthy diet, drinking cold water instead of warm water does, in fact, burn some extra Calories!

sounds good in theory, but i see a couple problems with it, but overall a nice idea

yes for the slight metabolic lift. go with at least 16oz.
