eat big get big gains

[Longhorn85]

I try to hit your second group (4000/200) but I probably average more like 3000/150. I weigh around 218.

When bulking I do anywhere from 3000-4000 cals per day, with about a 40/30/30 (p/c/f) breakdown.

So fat is an important part then? I take it not saturated fat, or does it not matter?

400 + grams protein calories , who knows ? lots of steak & chicken / tons of horrible tasting protein shakes oh yeah also once a week trip to a buffet where i load up on sushi I am 5'8" 230 lbs and have just changed from power lifting to body building and coming along well

EFA's do wonders. Good fats are the majority, but a little sat.fat sneaks in there on occassion.

I'm not good with the slang.. EFA means? and what are they?

Been eating 4500-5200 cals a day with 300g of prot, making excellent gains. I noticed if I lower my eating to 3500-4000 I won't gain nothing. Tough because eating so much is hard. complaning.

 

[JKurz1]

show me what your 5,200 cals looks like........

EFA means Essential Fatty Acids. The name tells you what they are. Omega 3-6-9's.

I have 305 grams of protein daily, and 3600 calories.
