The first part is utter nonsense. The second part can be somewhat true in certain circumstances, for example when you're doing multiple workouts per day.

Are you sure about that? I thought collagen isn't cheap. I thought lysine is usually used for spiking protein powders.

Edit: looks like L-Taurine and/or L-Glycine are used...

Seems true. This is 12 (!) table spoons of Great Lakes Gelatin.

I think it would still work to build muscle though. The missing tryptophan won't make a...

Another reason why that bb.com chart is flawed: there are many errors in the claims about "missing" AAs.

For example: 100 gram oats

It's complete nonsense to be honest. Combining AAs to get complete protein doesn't do anything useful except make your diet more complicated.

Just look at this: 30 gram wheat protein on it's own...

That's really bad info, on several levels.

Vegetable protein contains all the essential amino acids. It contains a little less of some EAAs but as long as you're getting enough leucine per meal it...

The stickies explain the answers to all your questions. Look at the one about calculating calories.

You're probably fine without extra supplements.

You only need 0.7 gram protein per lb. Lentils, eggs, peanuts can be very cheap.

Yes. MPS becomes very low and MPB starts exceeding it. It's been measured during sleep.

Ps. Lack of movement is bad for MPS.

True. If you go to bed at 20:00 your 19:00 meal becomes your pre bed meal.

I think it's explained at 3.5 FSR in that article.

This was pretty surprising to me: 30 gram wheat protein as good as 30 gram milk protein for MPS.

It's a good topic for the Nutrition forum. Or you could search for it as the question has been asked many times.

But in short: do whatever works for you, as long as you don't load up on saturated...

Keep in mind that we're trying to have discussions here that center around studies. Your question is interesting but you can just post it as a separate thread. You'll likely get better replies.

Well as long as you're getting stronger in the medium rep ranges (5-25) over multiple sets you're moving in the right direction.



Sounds good.

I think I may have said this before but in...

First thing I noticed is the amount of low rep work in that program. As you probably know sets of 1 and 3 reps aren't ideal to accumulate enough volume for hypertrophy. But hey if the program is...

I don't know. I'm just paraphrasing what I've heard him say.

Although one of his articles gives a different impression, Menno believes in cutting and bulking for most intermediates and beyond. He mentioned that in that last podcast I linked in the other...

What kind of progress are you making? Lifts, weights, reps etc.
