Whats your favorite source of protein?

[LiftedDuramax2007]

Just seeing if theres something out there that Im totally not thinking about

I eat steak, unfried chicken (even skinned chicken) but mostly skinless, tuna, and roast beef/pastrami

Dont like fish other than tuna, but could see myself eating some salmon

Im looking for a protein that I can eat without filling me up so much. 8-9oz of steak has me full for a good 4-5hrs

Beef is a very slow digesting protein. Egg whites and flaky white are quite the opposite. Red meat is good but I only eat it before the gym and bed.

my fav at the min is salmon.....changes often

[LiftedDuramax2007]

I cant do eggs, just cant stomach it. something about that smell

I only take in 50g of whey/casein a day, I dont want to take in alot of protein from scoops of whey but I wonder if Id be ok going up to 100g a day from the powder stuff instead of raw foods?

Also I see theres a fiber bread, it costs like $5-6 a loaf but it has 8g of protein per slice hmmm

salmon,chicken rice and syntha-6

Fav protein source as of now is tilapia. Mmm mmm mmm.

[LiftedDuramax2007]

Great this is what Im looking for more ideas of protein sources.

Like I said name ones that dont really fill you up and live you full for long. That way it can digest and I can eat 2-3hrs later again

For me it's bonelss, skinless chicken breasts, tuna & salmon. It's better to get your protein from natuaral sources than powder. Natural food is better for your metabolism than protein shakes, (IMO). I try to only do a whey shake PWO when my body is hunting for protein.

Thanks and I already know that

lol, sometimes the most simplest ideas totally slip my mind

Lean protein:

- Ground beef (93% lean or better)
- Ground Turkey
- Eggs Whites (1-2 whole eggs can be harmlessly added per egg-white meal)
- Lean steak (Flank, flat iron, or top sirloin)
- Bison sirloin among other cuts (The highest quality red meat overall IMO)
- Chicken breast
- Turkey breast
- Tuna (canned, fresh steaks, or sushi/sashimi - watch the mercury)
- Salmon/Trout - great o*ega 3 sources.
- Tilapia, Grouper, Halibut (mostly all white fish)
- Shellfish
- Venison
- Quinoa (complete protein Low GI carb)
- low sodium roasted turkey - deli slices (on-the-go purposes only)
- Whey protein (post-workout recovery purposes only)
- Casein/Cottage cheese (before bed only)

london broil is my fav source!

Do you guys think roast beef and pastrami has too much sodium?

Especially for someone who is about to start a cycle?

I like to get a pound of roast beef from the grocery store and eat a few slices here and there while Im at work

[PC650]

yes say no to roast beef and pastrami. thats more of a cheat food

[LiftedDuramax2007]

Its because of the sodium though correct? Or is there other reasons?

[DKU]

I like Rainbow Trout.

Basically sodium. But also just a much more highly-processed food in general.

tilapia is pretty good im getting tired of grilled chicken it seems to have a weird smell to me thats making me not want to eat it like pork(which i dont eat anymore) it has that weird smell also.

[showtimee]

can't beat a good chicken breast

[LiftedDuramax2007]

can't beat a good chicken breast

I agree, I ate one today that was only 8.5oz and I was full for 3 1/2hrs that sucks because that was only 50g of protein and 0 carbs so I was to full to throw down some brown rice or oatmeal
