Trozzle Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 If you don't count trivial sugars also, but at the end of the day it adds up to 200g sugar, did you not eat it? Well in the context I was getting at with the word 'trivial', to hit more than 50g directly from things I consider to contain 'trivial' amounts, you'd be eating a ridiculous amount of food haha. At the end of the day I'm seeing these silly little amounts add up to maybe 50g of protein (and sugars are similar). The amount of fruit I see some people consuming through the day blows my f**king mind though....I'd hate to think how much sugar they're taking in each day, even in the "healthy" form of fruit.

Kenna802 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Just curious anyone on here who has seen results in benching , biceps and triceps for approx 6 months works in gains? Also I have read alot of conflicting views on carb and protein intake per day as well. I am currently 78 kilos and some body building sites say approx 260 grams of protein and 300 grams of carbs. Than other places I have seen tell me 120 grams of protein a day. Any ideas Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/397/#findComment-6948219 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now I'm just another statistic Edited July 29, 2013 by jangles Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/397/#findComment-6948232 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas I've seen results in benching, biceps and triceps in 8 months work in gains Go to iifym.com and use the calculators to find your daily allowances for protein, carbs fibre and fat based on your age/weight/exercise level/what you're trying to achieve.

Kenna802 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Hmmm that still equals approx 240 grams of protein a day. Damn that's a lot.

vspecIInur Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 When most these body building sites say to consume x amount of this and that is generally for someone who is all roided up. I've started to eat to more salmon, swordfish and barramundi 3-4 times a week Sweet potato is really addictive but I end up eating around 100g of carbs from it lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/397/#findComment-6948881 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trozzle Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I was taking in 300g+ and roughly 2500-3000cal per day at 78kg bodyweight and still dropped ~750g of fat per week. For me at least, there's nothing wrong with eating excessive amounts of protein. Worst case scenario is my body just shits it out without absorbing it lol. Winning.

vspecIInur Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Better than a large bowl of pasta which can easily have 200+ grams of carbs based on a huge serving of it! With excessive protein consumption, my urea levels were high after a blood test as well as liver function values, and that's mainly due to excessive protein that my body doesn't really need. Better to have more than less I say!

Better to have more than less I say! Exactly! Especially since something like a big fat steak is super filling and won't trigger cravings like an insulin spike apparently can.
