Good transformation! Looking great . But 200 p 200 c and 50 f is barely over 2,000 calories bro
So is ranch calorie free? Is a 46g of carbs glazed donut not 600 calories? How much protein is in a quart of vanilla cream?
Insane transformation! +1
From a below average body to a true hardcore bodybuilder look. Great transformation. Well done!
Dam awesome transformation well done brotha.
You’re doing everything right brother. Proceed.
Big + from the Beard
Much appreciated!!
Bro. DO NOT FALL INTO BRO SCIENCE ON HERE. You are fine with 200g of protein a day. To many guys just repeating what they heard. I get 150 grams in some days and guess what I'm just as big and most definitely stronger then the ones telling you to up your protein. Your body can only metabolize so much protein. We are far too protein obsessed in our country.
What do you take in on other days
Some days 100g. Some days 200g. I never count. Protein is oversold on forums and circles like these. I'm not arguing against protein all together, however we all digest far to much because of decades of repeating information without any actually experiential basis. Let's look at a niche group for example like prison inmates. Why do prison inmates work off a high carb and fat diet with a fraction of "the bro recommendation" of protein g per bw and many have amazing strength and muscular development. Many of those guys I would argue are doing more exhaustive exercise throughout the entire day then your average bodybuilder. I have gone months running. Less then 100g of protein per day at powerlifting competition weight of 220lbs. And being her for as long as I have it does to some extent baffle me people just repeat generic information....like "up your protein bro". Without any regard for this man's budget, kidney health, overall goals etc...I think he is getting ample if not more then ample protein personally
Agreed. He’s fine. If he said he wanted to compete in physique or power sports that might change things.
I'm constantly playing around with macros what I do know is, what I'm doing is working until that changes I'm going to rinse and repeat. Also solid advice
Some Great Improvements there mate - EVERYWHERE!!!
This is a big transformation. I see the work in your delts and chesticles. Bring those traps up. Heavy ohp, shrugs, upright rows will make those dudes stand to your ears
You need to up your protein intake. It's not hard to hit 200+. Shoot for 250
I weigh 206 rn 5'9" about 18-20% bf you really think I should be hitting 250g protein? From what I read from studies it seems their is diminishing return after even 0.8g per pound of weight
Definitely need to be 250 or more.
Nice work though.
I don't think anyone that did those studies never tried to gain very hard
Some of the studies are hardcore athletes and on gear. Not casual gym goers. With that being said, protein is more satiating. So I definitely eat in the 250g+ per day range just because I’m so goddamn hungry. I’ll just eat bowls of shredded chicken to not be so hungry. But protein is the most expensive macro (not counting get it from powder)
Yes protein rich food is more filling. I hear someone say the other day it's less filling and thought well that's not right. I'm going to be doing 325 grams in one week from today. I've never busted 275 before so will be interesting to see if I can handle it
I’ll say a prayer for your toilet lol
Makes sense Thank you!
I'll throw in a protein shake, not a bad idea.
Yeah you can do that or chicken, yogurt, beef, fish
Already smashing so much of that. Cod on the menu for today
Damn man, that’s a hell of a transformation. You made happen what a lot of guys think is gonna happen but doesn’t
200g carb 200g protein 50g fat doesn’t add up to 3800 cals. You sure that’s what you’re doing?
Exactly what I was going to say lmao
Not every meal the cleanest, donuts pre workout, ranch on everything. Calories are calories, I'm not gonna resort to drinking olive oil to hit my mark, but best believe I'm smashing muffins and using condiments.
Ahh so that’s like the baseline goal? No better preworkout than donuts. Well lucky charms might get close in comparison. But I end up eating too much and feel like throwing up mid workout lol
Been there, especially legs. 2 donuts sticks or a couple zebra cakes and maybeee just maybee 5mg of cialis from the free sample from PA, equals pump city
Oh fuck yea some zebra cakes. Shit i haven’t had those in forever. Pop tarts and 10mg of cialis if you’re feeling freaky….did that this morning actually
Fruit flavored Pop tart with 1/8" to 1/4" layer of cream cheese. Reminds me of a cheese danish. Lol
I’m weird I actually like the plain ones without the hard icing on top. Just a plain strawberry pop tart in the toaster until nice and deep golden brown.
Atta boy! I May mirror that this evening
Good pecs
I feel like they JUST started to grow.
Nice f@#$*&+ work my dude love seeing all these good transformations really inspiring
Heck of a transformation. Putting in the consistent work, and it's paying off. Love to see it. Keep it up!
If it wasn't for the tats, I wouldn't think the recent picture is you. Huge difference. You can see the progress better than the photo you posted with a tank on. Your upper outer pecs look like they're pushing into your delts. Great job. Keep at it.
Thank you brother! Been starting with incline bench on chest day
