[N01SYtZ]

NOBODY needs 1g of fat per pound of BW... it's ridiculous.

[midcoastking33]

Everyone knows that past 20g of fat per meal results in lowered test in the short term

Protein is an essential macronutrient, carbohydrates are not. But this is kinda like asking, what's more important, your liver or your heart?

Anyway, I just posted this for the hell of it since I though this was a stupid question in OP. Hadn't read the thread but agree that 1 gr fat per pound is not necessary for most people.

[TheDudemeister]

OP, a quart of whole fat milk is 600 calories and a good balance of macros. Also, it's fairly inexpensive and easy to consume.

You have to learn to to manipulate the pronunciation of the words:

You are unaware of Emma's education, seriously?

[JohnBrowne]

You are unaware of Emma's education, seriously?

I was. I hate her and most of her posts and guidelines so I haven't taken any time to find out more about her.

inb4 she bans me. Just watch.

[SupaaJ]

lol @ 1 gram of fat per bw.

Brb consuming 212 grams of fat.

For those non-math majors, that is one thousand, nine hundred and eight calories, aka HALF of the massive amount of calories I eat.

I mean really, isthisreallife?

If you would like me to remove it from my sig, I can. I believe in the theory and figured that it would be wise for me to express that.

Treats in moderation.....

But if I should remove it, let me know.

It's like when people use ratios on bulking calories. 40/40/20. BRB 280 grams of protein

Hold on yo! I use those ratios!

Only mine are 24/43/33... lol.

[Cumulonimbus]

I use ratios... per meal for simplicity, come at me!

45/100/12.5
40/75/12.5
45/100/12.5
45/100/12.5
45/75/20

hehe

<--- brb 300 grams protein (srs)

Seems to work best for me. Perhaps due to poor recovery (genetics?), indifference, lack of need, and not that great tolerance to carbs, and stressful (both physically and hormonally) job.

[Killshot1]

When bulking is it more important to get more carbs or protein (as long as you hit your 1-1.5g/lbm) for building muscle?

Please don't flame!!!!

well i mean you need protein.. but honestly carbs. without carbs your not going to be lifting jack. then again without protein, your not going to be gaining jack.wut..

I lift whole a lot more jack on low carbs than you on high carbs. No hate, but most people keep strength just fine on low carbs. Ryan Kennelly set a world record bench press on a keto diet.
