This has been a very interesting topic for me off late, as I am fine tunning my diet and my training, I have heard many a stories and examples on what people say you should and should not consume, and the protien intake is one such example, when I 1st started I was told this is the building block's off muscle, if you want to get strong and see result's, focus on your protien intake, to which I did, I read and asked many question's to which it became apparant to me that everybody thrived on the stuff, and so did I, I was told to consume around 1.5+ gram's per kilo off body weight, to which I did, but I started to noticed that I was putting on size and gainning strength but I also noticed I was also putting on some weight that I really didn't want, (FAT) and I was frequently visiting the tiolet throughout the night, so I did a bit off study and found that consuming to much protien is not good as it is stored as fat and placcing extra strain on the kidney's, so I have now lowered my intake to around 1 to 1.25gram's per kilo, which for me is around 135grams a day, at one stage there I was over 200grams a day, I have foccused more on my carb(complex) intake and increassing that as I want an energy source to fuel my daily need's, and I believe this is far more important than protien at this stage, but I'm interested in other people's thought's about how much protien you should consume throughout the day, people that are into strength/weight training, and what you roughly consume throughout the day????,
At the momment I am eating, 300-350 carb's a day, (mainly Complex carb's), 135 gram's off protien, my fat intake is extreamly low, anywhere from 50-80 gram's a day, Sat fat 15-25 gram's, and around 2000 calaories a day, which I want to get up to around 3000, but it is hard to eat more in a day, Does anybody else work out their daily intake????. |
