Thread: My Diet. Exercise Science Major advice...IS THIS TRUE?

    My Diet. Exercise Science Major advice...IS THIS TRUE?

    Well im not a registered dietitian so legally I can only give you some general recommendations. First for protein...recommended for a strength athlete is 1.4-2.0g per kilogram of bodyweight and 15-20% of total kcal. Research shows more than about 20g per meal doesn't get used but just stored as fat. Your carbohydrates should be 50-65% of total kcal and about 5-10g per kilogram of bodyweight. Fat is also extremely important and should be 20-35% of total kcal with as little as possible from saturated and trans.


    Like he said he is not a registered dietitian...but some of his points are kind of opposite from what ive seen in the sticky...EX if you exceed 20g of protein per meal its stored as BF???

    mjdub724 - do yourself a favour - listen to the people who have given you advice and, combined, spent hours of their lives trying to help you.

    By now you should have listed your diet, had it critiqued and fine tuned it. Yet you procrastinalte and try to find arguments against everything you have been told. It is wearing thin. At some point, if not already, people will lose patience and just let you get on with whatever foolhardy idea of a diet you have set yourself.

    We do not get paid to advise, we do it as we are a community. If you want to be part of it, then be a part of it. If you want to argue black is white then there are plenty other forums out there full of folk your age that may be best suited to you.

    Now, your diet- WHERE IS IT?

    Thanks 405 i was thinking back to square one. Also the milo dude in the videos in the stickys said protein intake is unlimited. Of course you dont want to take 80+ gs of protein in one meal, but you get the point.

    And yes a excercise science major who
    Is very intelligant told me this. He is far from a bodybuilder coach or dietitiinist* hes more about strength and olympic type lifts.
