The Journey Season 2 - Episode 2: My Diet

[SWEDwillynelson05]

u look like a totally different person in that competition photo

[JeyJCam]

Your 245lb? Think that's around 16.5 stone. I hope your atleast 6 ft, coz I'm 205lbs and no joke I look bigger than you. Granted I'm 5'8.

[PaYdRo956]

Keep it up brotha!!!

[308ct]

a hard core bodybuilder does not look for verity that's what separates 1st form 2nd place

[SuperSayanFitness]

whats epic about a fing WPI , you really like to hype up shit

[ElemenohpeeHD]

im bulking right now and i have an addiction to bbq sauce lol, when i start cutting im gonna have to find something else maybe hot sauce. doesnt really matter now that im bulking, cuz it has more carbs and calories than any other seasoning lol . but yeah.. i love my bbq sauce i put it on everything .. im gonna miss it while im cutting lol

[bunzo7]

i have to find me some ez-kill bread. im getting tired of whole wheat

[joeltoro1]

Hey great video! in the future can you explain why you need the karbolyn post workout even while dieting. Is that something you'll keep in your diet throughout or do you cut it at a certain point. I have been dieting now since Feb first and I have cut out all post workout shakes. I'll just rush home and have some egg whites and turkey bacon and whole wheat bread. Should I incorporate the post workout with Carbs again? Thx in advance for the advice.

[mofoman14]

i've been trying to research a lot about how many grams of protein you can consume in one sitting. a lot of places say usually 30-40. i assume it depends how ripped up your muscles are? always wondered because it's hard for me to get 180 grams in a day ( im 180 lbs and im seeing that for muscle building i should get around .8-1 gram per lb). would really appreciate some feedback, if not thats fine too, i know you get a lot of questions all the time.

[JERRY22332233]

Yonkers

[jbbbrown10]

Looking big. Good luck with your show

[vikingswrestling170]

propel zero, no calories, no sugar, no fat plus it has vitamins and great flavors. its really helped me sty with water

[AverageLifter07]

I don't know how people can see J.R. is fat. I'd say looking pretty damn good for being 245-255 on a bulk. You're not supposed to be extremely cut, it's a bulk. Most people that walk around at that weight are just complete shit. You cannot compare natural, average lifters to ifbb pros.

[GrandmasBoy41]

I'm sorry, didn't realize strength & muscular hypertrophy weren't his desired goals... He has gotten much bigger and stronger than his first videos. He then successfully cut down & entered a competition (looked pretty good)... N Over this past off season, got larger than the one before... Pretty sure that's the goal there guy...

[fishman033]

I love how people will jump all over any chance they get to criticize your diet, when your diet is probably 10x better than theirs...

[Gunmetallic91]

looking at you..i don't want to be natural..pudgy face..waist kinda sticking out. no changes, you look the same. But it's just advice..dont get all butt hurt..cause at the end of the day..YOU CAN DO WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU WANNA DO

[GrandmasBoy41]

@Gunmetallic91 Have you seen any of his other videos?? He's made huuuuggggee gains...

[Gunmetallic91]

@GrandmasBoy41 not quality gains

[emann43]

How did you become a supplement company owner? I had no idea that you made 'unleashed' pre workout.

[ASHCOL18]

Great video man. I think a lot of people underestimate your knowledge and dedication. Congrats on all of your success and keep it up!

[alfarion1]

goodluck in june. anxious to see your transformation g

[BradzCanadian]

yo

[A2K686]

fuckin love tyler

[JohnGotti604]

hey barthell wow ure at 245 impressive... how long have u been bodybuilding?

[tobyyeahh]

@LBCBJ watch the video again???????????

[SNaRF66666666]

these are my favorite videos

[iseein4d]

Great video and information. Ignore the haters and keep doing your thing bro.

[iosoniosonmanuel]

you look fat, just saying: you are doing it wrong

[SC45091]

@barthelfitness I been taking creatine for about four weeks now and I just had someone recently tell me that I should cycle it instead of just taking it constantly. They said it should go

week 1: loading phase

Week2-4: maintenance

Week 5: off

And just keep cycling that what's your thoughts on this?

[Clayton7510]

There have been several studies which show that amino acids consumed with carbohydrates have a positive anabolic effect when consumed before and after resistance training. It has also been shown that amino acids consumed pre and post workout are more effective than whey protein. That last study was done in 2007 by the University of Texas. So, taking BCAAs along with other essential amino acids pre and post workout should have a positive anabolic effect... for those wondering.

[royfudgloy]

Wow...I weigh 205 and have 20% body fat and I eat the same way you do. Right now I am cutting getting 250 g protein, 100 carbs, and 125 g fats....2700 cals....looks like I might wanna go down to 2500 cals.........

[TimeDefeater]

@royfudgloy that are mutchos of fat

[Djolesabijacica]

Hey dude, what happened to your abdomen? You had more cheat meals than it was supposed? :) (no hate)

[sixfootfourwarrior]

It may not be true about post workout nutrition and bcaas but I'm sure it can't do any harm

[stackindatpapa]

good luck in ur competion bro

[yooosuckamothafucka]

what weight are you trying to come in at?

[jeepjk18]

i love you. and im a dude.....

[oleesquivel87]

forget the haters barthel we support you buddy!!!

[aston1000]

Cutting on 3025 cals?? Is this real life???

[Nirnayaz]

That Hot Sauce Joke actually made me chuckle lol

[TheRage191]

ay man im serious about my muscle gains am i at the right channel?

[writing314]

can i just use white rice? or would brown be better?

[ayLite]

Hey Barthel, whats your body type?

[Coffeebourne]

I am so glad I found your show! Very helpful and I appreciate that you keep the language clean.

So many other youtube bodybuilding shows are vulgar. Thanks Bro, keep it up!

[nickmanning4prez]

pop-tart ad lolz

[KohviKruus]

what happened to his face? bulking or something else?

[spugat]

wow... he's so lost ... fist he talks about eating complex carbs and later he eat like 3 pounds of white rice a day... hav you ever looked at the glycimic index of white rice?? (and acutally it doesen't make a great difference if you eat white or brown rice..)

[barthelfitness]

@spugat have you? the glycemic index of white rice and brown rice are virtually the same - long grain white rice is brown rice without the husk

[spugat]

@barthelfitness yeah... that's what i was saying... :S

[spugat]

@spugat so if your actually informed about the topic, why are you so ambivilant and start off talking about eating clean and complex carbs.... but at the end you eat white rice.... i don't get it, not that I personaly think, that white rice is that bad for you

[johnnysmack7]

@barthelfitness White rice has a higher glycemic index than brown rice.

The high glycemic index of white rice consumption is the consequence of disrupting the physical and botanical structure of rice grains during the refining process. The other consequence of the refining process includes loss of fiber,vitamins, magnesium and minerals, lignans, phytoestrogens, and phytic acid, many of which may be protective factors for diabetes risk.

I eat a lot of rice and i don't want diabetes. brown it is.

[imboardnotstupid]

@johnnysmack7 He said LONG grain white rice is similar in GI to brown rice not all white rice in general. Look up the GI of Basmahti rice which is a LONG grain WHITE rice, its GI is very much the same as brown rice if not lower.

[PhysiquesOfGreatness]

@barthelfitness LOOKOUT BRO. CHECKOUT MY CHANNEL I WANT YOUR OPINION. WE SEEM TO HAVE ALOT IN COMMON . IN TERMS OF NUTRITION

[o00thunderhawk00o]

@barthelfitness instant rice is high but long grain rice is like pasta. white and brown are low.

[systemrootexploited]

@spugat Look at YOURSELF! First your saying HAVE YOU EVER LOOKED AT THE GLYCIMIC INDEX? ....then you say "actually it doesn't make a difference if you eat white or brown rice. Sounds to me like YOU got your HEAD up your COOLO!

[spugat]

@systemrootexploited Well, what I was trying to say is that rice no matter which kind should not be considert a complex carb

[Abarai1]

hey JR, just wondering if you should avoid sodium as much as you can on a cut. I about 99% of the time buy fresh chicken, but the other times when I have frozen its usually around 20% of the daily intake of sodium per piece.. Was wondering if when YOU'RE (personally) cutting if you avoid sodium as much as you can. Thanks man!

[souljaboiy1]

i used to use scivation quake 10.0 but it made me feel sick i think it was the crappy flavor- Berry : /

[sagsag06]

@AustinDuggal it's because he doesn't want to lose weight rapidly!!! you idiot!!!!

[kipmclaughlin]

I hate the new Xtend.... Old Xtend was amazing.

[1994joris]

[ElemenohpeeHD]

[TheCellux]

[ballyondeck]

HOW BOUTE A WHOLE BOX OF KRAFT MACNCHEESE BEFORE BED?!>??!?!?!?

[NotoriousRID94]

Cholula hot sauce is BOMBBB

[MrWellminded]

haha i knew you were going to say pop tart

[KynexWOW]

@ExerciseorDie He attempted to ruin the hodgetwins life by telling them to stop there channel and saying there info is in correct. He things just cause wikipedia says it then it MUST be true. Dude come on you can't honestly believe this shit? You wouldnt listen to a virgin for sex advice would you? Probably not, and by the way his physique looks, hes a virgin in the bodybuilding community..... And there not FACTS, science always changes there THEORYS.

[DiversePersona]

@KynexWOW

Your spelling and grammar is shit. So I think Ian Mccrathy is right.

[PEREZFITNESS777]

DO YOU EAT FRUIT??????



[eacz12]

why is this fatty making videos about DIET!? ok let's have kesha make videos about singing...

[KynexWOW]

@ExerciseorDie Your the ignorant asshole for believeing science. Do you not understand what may be right in science today can be COMPLETLEY wrong tommorrow? Yea have fun listening to a guy who thinks google is gonna lead him to 6 pack abs, clearly its not. He doesnt want new people coming to his channel seeing he is hated for bashing other channels cause they dont believe his google science therefore thats why he has them turned off. He is not knowledgable your just gullobile.

[bigfreskgoldsgym]

Smh at fitness channel drama Ian backs his shit up with Science, and spreads it to the youtube community. Barthell does his thing, gets results, and is entertaining/successful. The hodgetwins are entertaining. Nick Wright gets bitches id imagine. And I.... well I pick things up and put them down then stuff my face with four meals a day using Ian's teachings on nutrition.In the end who really gives a flying fuck? Yall need to put on your big boy pants..hit the gym..up the macros...and GETOVERSHIT

[MWirtjes26]

Hey JR I bought some AG-T and Creatine Complex and ordered 2 day shipping and i live in MN like you but it's been a week? What you got beef bro? :) I know it was from the holidays no worries but you should do a video on cheat meals and days for me bro

[barthelfitness]

@MWirtjes26 i can get one - if you saw the post it was because we wanted you to get the free dog tags that came in a few days after your order

[AustinDuggal]

loookn huge dude but ur not as dedicated as most bb'ers... sushi rice...

[barthelfitness]

@AustinDuggal I eat sushi rice so im not dedicated? is this real life?

[AustinDuggal]

@barthelfitness well you're not willing to sacrifice your taste buds for optimal results

[sswgaming]

@barthelfitness wow jr people are fucking stupid commenting on your videos not knowing what their talking about

[rp1234mew]

@barthelfitness or is this just fantasy?

[WarPigRS]

@AustinDuggal lololol stupidest thing I have ever heard

[dontbescaredhommie]

@AustinDuggal not sure if srs...

[akaotherwise]

Nice video, bro!

[pragmaticreality]

TYLER AT THE START!!!!! BEAST MAN XD

[MGstrength229]

[dvaidslv]

[TheHerEmbrace]

Could not live with such low fat! My macros are; 200 Protein, 100 Carbs and 200 Fats. But yeah, doesn't matter how you get there just as long as you do get there. Keep it up, buddy!

[shurdawg]

Why cant everyone just lay off each others diets, and ways of building muscle. You cant fucking call people out if they have built a serious amount of muscle, there is MORE THAN ONE FUCKING WAY to build muscle, let barthel eat how ever the fuck he wants to eat.

[gymtrancerage]

fuck carbolyn, y not just eat corn starch. shit source of carbs.

[MissSessanDydland]

I love these food videos!

[AlexVerdonMusic]

Awesome video man, can't wait to see the end of the journey. I followed the last one and you seem more confident in yourself now. Bring home the gold man!!!

[alpinewhite46]

[WestlundFitness]

do you count those bcaas as protein in your daily macros?

[SM0LTZ]

I have watched your videos from the very beginning and I just wanted to let you know that you have helped inspire me to a place I thought was not possible.

[Irawdom]

Aint low sodium soy sauce kind of like bangin a hooker with a touch of aids? Liquid heart attack!

[SickafuLL]

greetz from germany

[nolongerlazy]

Jr I would like to thank you for all your inspiration and motivation. Your videos have helped me so much feeding me knowledge on what and when to eat. I started out at 340 and obese basically dying. Now I am at 276 pounds and on my way to 200. I love to excercise and eat right now. Just wanted to give you a shout out and thank you for all the motivation in the videos!

[dwyanewade21]

@jvblues24 First off nick did NOT own me, second off you stop sucking nicks dick jesus hes just an average joe with a youtube channel and your all over him. Oh and third don't use what the twins say to me.... nick has lost subscribers, gained TONS of dislikes on all his videos, and lost respect from people, so yea who is getting owned now?

[scondore]

@dwyanewade21 And as for "Nick has lost subscribers" my subs jumped from the mid 16,000s the day the Twins made that response, up to the almost 19,000 now in the couple of weeks since.. Sorry for all the comments Barthel, my origional comment and compliment to your video still stands!

[KeithCMuscle]

These are the best type of videos you make in my opinion. Good stuff man!!

[barthelfitness]

@KeithCMuscle thanks bud!

[LoVeS2SpOoGeMaN]

I still remember your skinny photo's from when you were basically a kid. Man your've come such a long way, what a beast! Keep it up bro, looking forward to the new season ;-)

[Platano4LIFE1]

Hey man I really would appreciate your advice, I'm around 224 and we have pretty much the same type of meal setups, but I noticed you don't necessarily have a breakfast setup I do, would you just cut out amounts in your other meals? Also, what% do you go for when it comes to carb/fat/pro. If anyone else can help would appreciate as well. Sorry for lengthy post. Thanx in advance.

[loomjake]

J.R I figured out if you cook your chicken with Tabasco sauce but not too much it tastes like buffalo chicken its great just dont breath it in while its cooking it burns hahaha.

[miner4um8]

what's your workout for your trap's like?

[barthelfitness]

@miner4um8 shrugs

[attykid91]

Hey jr I have a quick question or anyone who is willing to help. I just got into building muscle about 4 months ago and have seen progress. Anyways what do you do for cardio and level and intensity do you do. I need a range then work around that. Thanks and your videos are awesome keep them up

[barthelfitness]

@attykid91 well depends on what your goals are - but for simple example - I do about 3-4 days of cardio 15-20 minutes / interval style! typically stick with ellitpical and stair stepper!

[mrfranco57]

is mash potatoes and a protein shake okay b4 bed?

[mafiaferrari]

@barthelfitness Ian mcarthy is a jealous twerp.....he is a critic......how sad:).... He can try but he won't succeed....look at you ,you still going,look at him dead and buried.....

[mafiaferrari]

[MriBackup]

Does karbolyn have protein? !

[SNaRF66666666]

thnx for the video nutrition is my down fall ://

[joe10081]

hey mr. barthel, isn't white rice a fast digesting carb? wouldn't a brown rice be better for you if you want to lose weight since it is a slow digesting carb?

[barthelfitness]

@joe10081 look at long grain rice or something like BASMATI rice - similar to brown rice on the GI index

[kutchabo]

People worry about sodium because 1. They may have high blood pressure through genetics or due to their past diet or body weight, and a high sodium diet with increase the risk of Hypertension. 2. Sodium increases water retained in the body and puts pressure on your heart if you consume too much sodium your increasing the chances of heart problems later on in your life. So basically, there is extremely good benefits of having a low sodium diet.

[NotoriousRID94]

Anyone know how to get the dogtags that he's wearing???

[mrlarusso78]

These nutrition videos you make are BY FAAAAAAAAAAAAR my favorite vids you make. Please continue to make them frequently.

[FitnessKid96]

Nice video, only thing is, i would switch my meals up dude! i mean jeez, 3 of the SAME meals over and over again? i would feel rather depressed knowing im having the same thing, for the 3rd time today. No offense though bro, if i were you i would switch up your protein/carb sources. I know that you know there is MANY other ways to get those carbs and protein in, even those healthy fats too!

[RaaYzR]

JR you and your nutrition company should make a BCAA product something similar to Xtend seeing as their somethinng you highly beleive in.

[barthelfitness]

@RaaYzR in the works buddy! will be here in 2012 at some point!

[cam11423]

@barthelfitness mcstruthers did a product review on unleashed saying it was bullshit by just looking at the whats in it and not trying it also saying u dont need electrical lights because u get it in food and u can just drink water no need for gatorade or anything like that but y does bigplayray09 drink gatorade he should probably also stop making vids :)

[RaaYzR]

@barthelfitness Awesome really looking foward to that and your protein!

[MrJihad99]
