What if you ate 1000+ above maintainance?

[xcbnttxk31]

Given you had a high protein/carb diet. How would this compare to eating 500 above?

[Zincton]

Currently do.

No problems

[pakichampion]

pointless your body will only use so much of the nutrients you give it then rest will just go out the back door

wait...lolwut?

[Teench]

Some will get fat. Others swole.

[OnMyWhey]

Depends on your bodytype. endo, ecto, meso.

[VanKid]

I got fat now I worked it out and am down to half abs or so

you mean stored as bf right?

[Fike75]

I think what he is trying to say is your body can only absorb so much protein at a time, when your body can't absorb anymore you pee it out.

[monkeyfrogO.O]

your body uses nutrients for up to 12 hours after you eat them. that stuff about limited protein absorption per meal is complete bull****

So your telling me if you consume 120g of protein at one time your body is going to consume all of it?

Do you want digestion by committee or something??


Digestion is a nonselective process. Unless corn or Buffalo Wild Wings is involved...those apparently can 'opt out' of digestion...

In order for protein synthesis to take place all 8 amino acids must be present. If they are not present, then the protein is transmitted into energy or stored as fat.

You will find that Fike75 isn't the brightest bulb in the box... but he makes up for it by having a lot of heart.

I think you'd be gaining weight at too much of a fast rate bro. The extra calories you're taking in will simply go as fat, you can't force your body to get more muscle.

You do realise there are quite a bit more than 8 amino acids, right?

[Extrado]

Given you had a high protein/carb diet. How would this compare to eating 500 above?

The result would differ greatly from person to person.
I am currently eating over 1000 calories above my maintenance, simply because I have to, to put on weight.
The funny thing is, I've been using this diet for a few months now and my bodyfat level has remained exactly the same even though I've put on weight.
I think it also depends on the quality of what you eat, I try to eat as clean as possible.

[xxxDAxBEASTxxxX]

thats 7k above maintenance a week? so in theory ud gain 2 pounds of fat?

not sure tho..

[nonzero]

I think I eat around 400+ everyday for about 2 months now and only little fat been stored.
and am an ecto-meso

im sorry but this is wrong, protein itself is not stored as fat, excess protein that the body does not need is converted into a poison then converted into a milder poison and then removed from the body, excess CALORIES that your body does not need gets converted into fat not protein

this is the exact kina stuff im studying in my degree and it really frustrates me when i see bollocks like this thrown around

also the whole theres only so much protein your body can absorb in one time, theres strong evidence to back both points of argument up so at this point anyone could be right

[SirB1g]

So your telling me if you consume 120g of protein at one time your body is going to consume all of it?

No doubt you have an excellent explanation as to why people on an Intermittent Fasting diet do not, in fact, suffer from protein deficiency, seeing as they consume nearly all their dietary protein within a 4 hour window and why there was no difference in muscle protein and lean mass compared to a conventional diet?


Or to why people who consumed 79% of their dietary protein in one meal, as opposed to 4 meals saw no difference in fat free mass?

different for everyone, 500 wasnt workin for me so i eat 750-1000

[Scott.]

Why don't you just train properly and eat well until you're full and stop worrying about the specifics?

[-TheKingPin-]

The majority of people who think they are eating 1000 calories over maintenance and are gaining 1lb a week are actually only consuming roughly 500 calories.

However there are some individuals who will truly eat 1000 calories over maintenance and still gain the same amount of weight. This is because there BMR increases therefore the body uses more energy in biochemical reactions and generates more heat in order to deal with the excess energy input instead of it being stored as BF.

[djk3]

I eat 1200 above supposed maint. Not really gaining any fat so I guess my maint is much higher

[buckeye185]

you'd gain weight.

Seriously. If more of the people in this section did this, there'd be less of this idiotic dog **** being thrown around in some of these topics.

and youre swole man!

[CajunPballer]

Wtf?! No, you don't. Unused protein is stored as fat.

Negged when off recharge for all your stupid comments in this thread.

that amount of protein would take many hours to digest, but i believe it would definitely be used

i eat 100 grams of protein (chicken) every night as my last meal, and im sure it all gets used. because it has 12 hours or so to be used.
