  • A very small amount of growth is actual protein, the rest is water. This doesn't mean it's fake growth or anything like that, but rather simply that it's not all protein.

    S0 to add water you have to do the same things that you've always needed to do to build muscle - hard work in a progressive manner.

  • What I think he was trying to get at was. We seem to focus on eating loads of proteins while body building and forget we need plenty of water too.

  • @iAMthePROTEINman show me pictures of you, why are you giving advice on videos, you have no videos? LOL

  • wow that was flawed logic....not sure what the point of this video was

  • how much protein to build muscle=

    40% of your daily kcal intake for building (daily kcal intake for building muscle is daily kcal intake for maintaning plus 300-500kcal).

    so if your daily kcal intake for building muscle is 3000kcal then use this formular= 3000 x 0.4 = 1200 (number of kcal coming from protein)

    a quarter of this will be the number of grams you should be shooting for, formular= 1200 / 4 = 300grams

    an easy way is to simply take 1 zero of the number of kcal you need for building.

  • I shouldn't be watching this while fasted. XD
