ok i do wat this vid just said...i eat a lot of protein (at least 200 gr. a day at 172 lbs) and i drink a gallon of water a day but you said how performance will go down but i probably train harder than anyone I've ever seen ( you should see my squat workout-yes this is just me talking but believe me) and i don't have problems getting everything out of my workouts. I've gained at least 25 lbs in a few months (a minimal amount of fat) and everything seems to be working so i don't understand?
I am on a high protein diet, low fat and low carbs. however i am drinking about a gallon of water and lots of tea a day. how much do u recommend of protein to have a day?
@BilaChild At least 1 gram of protein for every pound of body weight. But for optimal results you will want to get 1 an a half grams to to grams per pound of body weight.
I have been trying to gain mass i take 48 grams of protein in the morning be for work eat my food that has good protein sorce and then be for work out I take my pre-workout then I hit the gym and do what i do on that day and i have been doing that for 6 to8 months and I realy don't see alot of mass and I wight at 180 to 175 ponds and I'm only 5.7" in hight so can you help me and let me know what I'm doing wrong.
Hey! Have you considered intellectus 424 diet (search on google)? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my work buddy lost tons of weight with it.
Great video. Most people don't know that a high protein/low carb diet will cause you to drink more water, whereas a diet that is higher in carbs requires less water, because the products of carbs are water and CO2.
very important to stay well hydrated, but drinking a lot causes to urinate more and protein suppliments will be added to urine... so.. i don't get it, the more I drink it will push out proteins,, maybe I shouldn't be hydrated much ?
@RiseofBane No mate, that is not true, that is not how the body works. All functions important to anabolic activity take place in a hydrophyllic (water loving) environment. It makes sense to stay well hydrated always
I usually work out at night time, come back home , drink protein, I see sometimes gaining 1-2pounds on my weight which is great. And then I dehydrate a lot after midnight, and next day I find out my weight went back to normal... I mean yea I been gaining weight for long time, but it seems it's impossible to gain more than a pound within a day, or could it be im doing something wrong?
@RiseofBane Well your first mistake is thinking the scale is telling you anything good or bad. Its not unlikely to gain either a pound of fat or a pound of muscle in a day. What you are experiencing is merely daily osmotic shifts. And that points more to a need for hydration than anything else. (without knowing more of course)
@charlrogers1990 Well that would require assessment really, so I can't really say. I never like to speak in absolute or categorical terms unless it is to make a point
Many use protein powder as a quick and convenient source. In that context it serves a purpose, but there is certainly nothing unique or special about protein powders
hey guys I've always been a healthy eater but i had not recorded my meals until recently. I way around 190 pounds and consumed well over 200 grams of protein today. I was just wondering if this was a good or bad thing ?
@drakejoseph25 Try not to look at such things as good or bad, just relative and informational. More like productive or unproductive, then if productive, look at good, better, best.
But its not just about numbers mate. Answering that would require assessing the rest of your diet and lifestyle contribution as well. Watch out for people who just throw around numbers in lieu of context
So, 1 gram of protein per lb is enough right? What about in a diet situation? I mean would 1 gram per lb still be enough to maintain muscle while on a calorie deficit?
@jprc25 Should be enough, but also depends on overal context of the rest of your diet
Now, when dieting to maintain muscle mass in a calories deficit that is a little more tricky for sure, and very individual in terms of looking for the right cues and knowing what they mean
"Weight loss" doesn't always mean "fat loss" and muscle and muscle water are easy to lose as well. Last thing anyone wants. So its not the weight scale only
@jprc25 To add to what coach Abel said, sufficient protein in a dieting situation is a very small concern compared to other factor pertaining to maintaining muscle. People usually sacrifice muscle mass more through improper training protocols and extended periods of low carbohydrate consumption than from eating too little protein. In a contest dieting situation I rarely am over 1g per pound and many days am under.
@scottabelcoaching Thanks a lot for the answer. I've actually experienced what you pointed out in the past: I went on low carbs, trained improperly and lost muscle mass even though I was taking enough protein.
So, if you starve your body of carbohydrates, your performance is going to suffer, you're going to be dehydrated and muscle growth is going to be stunted. I'm really glad you went over this because the long-standing myth is that, as long as you're getting plenty of protein, you can build muscle fast but, in reality, you need some carbs through rice cakes, fruit, whole grains with your lean meats and protein sources to give your body what it needs to both have energy AND produce muscle. Right?
@Micknotic Of course mate. But even with that, for 90% of the people, 90% of the time, no one "builds muscle fast" mate. (see my latest Blog on that one)
All the more reason for properly planned program progression
@drakejoseph25 a gram per pound is a good gauge but this is also not set in stone. It is not uncommon for me to have days where I am 20-30 grams below and other days when I am 20-30 above. If you have sufficient protein sparing nutrients it will not be a concern.
@scottabelcoaching thanks Kevin, the sparing nutrients and the pathway do metabolize "to much" protein made sense now. By the way, i´ve heard in some videos that you used to powerlift ? If you dont mind to tell how did you end at raw bench and dead at what body weight? Thanks again!
What is the definition of HIGH? 1.5g , 2 g .. per lb of lean mass, or is more the macros ? like "30% .. 40% "? thanks! and congratulations for the sound quality on your videos , thats and improvement!!
On a higher calorie diet your grams of protein are going to be higher . It is hard to eat a 3 to 4 thousand calories a day and not get 200-300 grams of protein . Percentage wise this is not a high protein diet.. At 250g that is only 25% protein if you are eating 4000 calories just by example. If your diet is 1500 calories and you are eating 250g of protein you are at 66% That is a lot of protein compared to other macros. So you see its all relative. Hope this makes sense.
But what if you have a high body fat %? OR if you have a high Protein Diet and get the sufficient Complex carbs and fats in that diet wouldn't that allow for the best results and rehydration?
@boiaustralia Bodyfat would have to be extremely high to recommend a really high protein diet. And even then, only for a short period
Of course the second part of your question makes sense, but if fats and/or carbs are "sufficient" and calories are in line with that, then protein wouldn't be "high" anyway. But great question for sure
Hey Scott,
So is the dehydration caused by one not consuming enough carbohydrates, or by an "unbalanced" ratio of protein to carbs?
What about people who (and I think you've spoken about some previously) excel on a high protein diet?
