If you manage to turn fat into muscle you may just become the greatest scientist of your generation Good luck big fella

Watch all you like Tolga, I'm out of this one

What is it your trying to achieve with your protein supplement? Are you training for a particular event or simply a casual gym goer?

Mark, 99% of guys in the gym simply dont understand, nor will they ever that............... You build strength in the gym and size in the kitchen You dont build muscle in the gym, exercise is a catabolic activity, eating is anabolic What we do in the gym is give muscle a REASON to change, food provides the building blocks to allow it

You should question EVERYTHING Tom, I do 2gms per lb is a measurement I read about 30 years ago in BB magazines Anyway I do my own research, real world stuff. Nearly 3 years ago I had Max and Dim training side by side in the gym, same program They were having a race to a 100kg bench press, both weighed around 68kg Max's eating was perfect, Dim was 25 and not paying much attention to nutrition, regular guy with protein drinks and 3 meals a day, I'd say around 200gms of protein a day Dim beat Max to a 100kg bench by about a week. Three years later Dim still eats the same, though he weighs 78kg. Max weighs 85kg. Dim benches 107.5kg on a very good day. Max has continued to increase his protein as he got heavier. He now benches 155kg They train in the same gym, same programs, same coach, only difference is diet and lifestyle I dont need a book or a lab coat to tell me where the difference lies I am very priveledged in that when I give advice I have hundreds of lifters to draw experience from, most only train themselves I reckon 50-60gms per meal is a good amount to start with Max cooks 3 steaks every morning after eating 5 eggs and 5 bits of bacon for breakfast, washed down with a home made get big drink. He boils a pot of potatoes and has steak and potatoes for meal 2,3 and 4, peanut butter sandwiches next, protein drink during training, dinner at home, more milk before bed If Dim did this, he too would be benching upwards of 140kg, but he doesnt

The minimum I recommend for serious lifters is 2gms per LB of bw Max has to squat 200kg x 10 next week weighing 85kg. He would have around 400gms a day, he trains 6 x week with heavy weights, no fluff at all

Tom, we have MUCH more than that, but we train with VERY heavy weights Max would weigh 69kg on that intake, I think he hits 200gm by his 3rd meal at 12.00pm

210gms too much? f**k, I better tell my lifters lol In all seriousness, you should match your training to your diet, not the other way around like most do I find that most lifters should go to the gym and just do 1 set of calf raises then go home

I reckon Ben Bouchereau from QLD will break Emads 80kg ProRaw record of 622.5kg, he's the best sub 80kg lifter in QLD currently. I reckon he will go 640kg@79kg

Emad is the best 75kg raw lifter in Australia, ever. The only guy to total 600kg, and he's done it twice, not shitty comps either, at a Nationals and a Worlds He has no competition at 75kg so he's moving up to the 82.5kg class If you mean Mike, Tolga, he went head to head with Emad at ProRawThree in the 80kg class Mike totaled 615kg and Emad went 622.5kg Its a pity Emad wont compete at 75kg again because his totals were done with a bad shoulder that had just been reconstructed. He only benched 120kg at Worlds but benched 150kg at ProRawThree. Maybe if someone steps up and takes his All Time Australian 75kg record, all Feds, he will come back and reclaim it. His best lifts at between 75-78kg are 232.5kg squat, 152.5kg bench and 270kg deadlift

Weider ones are milk based, offering all aminos rather than just leucine, isoleucine and valine. The BCAA's are great for during and straight after sessions, but I suppose the idea of Weiders ones is to keep a positive nitrogen balance during the day. In my opinion for them to be effective you need to take 100 at a time Easier to drink a litre of milk

Weider sold protein tablets years ago

Very nice squatting

No max effort lift will be text book, thats what most cant understand If its perfect, it aint max effort Internet judges just dont know that
