my main point was just awareness of the massive amount of calories involved in taking 200g of protein a day

hes probably 15-18%, here's some comparisons

Sure but massive calories dictate the workload. If you are working out 5-6 days a week you are running at a much higher rate of metabolism, not to mention all that protein going to work repairing muscles. 40/40/20 is the acknowledged normal split for caloric intake on a workout diet.

40% protein to ensure muscle repair 40% carbohydrates to ensure energy and that muscles arent atrophied for energy, especially if you are doing aerobic as well as anarobic exercise, and 20% fats for healthy transport of energy and protein throughout the body.

if you are giving advice to a professional body builder whose entire life is building then u might be onto something

for most of us adding 1k calories to daily nutrition is a retarded idea

guess it would depend on where your current diet is at and what kind of food you are eating. adding 1k calories to someone only taking in 1200-1400 calories a day would see a big boost in benefits if their doing weightlifting. Or someone who takes in 2,500 calories a day but eats a lot of fastfood and simple carbs would benefit from making over their diet into that 40/40/20 split with more complex carbs and lean meats.

He wasn't lean because it's been winter which is commonly a "bulk" time for most lifters.

Bet he is a ripped out monster during the summer.

You'd think this thread couldn't have been any more homo with purest defending another man's body and diet like a bitch at the office watercooler.
