Wonder how many grams of protein u guys need during non workout/rest day ? I personally just down one protein shake(30g of protein) when i wake up and that is all beside eating my meal...is it sufficient actually ? and to be honest..my diet kinda sucks so my protein intake for non-workout day definitely sucks too..if it's really insufficient then i might need to down 1 or 2 more shakes =P... thx anyway


Btw my bodyweight is 60kgs

1-1.5g of protein per pound of body weight per day...split them into 6 meals in a day. Protein comes from food too FYI, not just from protein powder.

60kg = 132lbs

132 x 1.5 = you are suppose to take 132 to 198g of protein a day. Divide them into 6 meals a day so it's 22 to 33g of protein each meal.

A boneless and skinless chicken breast has 40g of protein. 7 large whole egss has 40g of protein. 2 scoops of protein powder contains 40g of protein.

Firstly, ur muscle only grow when u rest.
it doesnt grow when u train, but when u rest.
so, the crutial time for u to have ur protein is...???
AFTER WORKOUT.

Actually if Im not mistaken growth do occur in gym and yeah if supplements like whey is your only source of protein then ya it is going to make ur pocket koyak....

KFC every day.

(more realistically: Start buying a lot of eggs. And eat the yolks.)

how big is a chicken breast? if 1 piece of kfc breast, how many gram of protein?

1 oz of chicken breast = approx 7 g of protein

If you are eating out, approximately as big as your palm size. Kfc breast is not optimal but I guess it's better than hawker stuffs.

Yeah...hawker food is all carbs (noodles noodles and more noodles) and salt.

Uh...Yeah you are very badly mistaken.

muahahaha... =.= +1

sigh stress ler like that...i am taking around 130 grams of protein during my workout day only..rest day i think my protein intake didn't even reach half of 130grams...stress

Dont mistaken the muscle pump as growth.

Hi, i've been doing mostly compound exercises and i'm trying to gain weight at the same time. Lately i realised that my body is so used to the exercises and i don't even feel any pain the next day.

I use to do 3 x 8 but i changed it to 5 x 5 last week. Still feels the same.

Any idea on how i should change the workout?

WTF look at his age and size

Check out antoine vai also. freakin nice body, 20 only. Who cares if they use steroids, they don't know the effort and determination put in to get there.

Dang, that was really inspiring.

Humm I dun think so Im "very badly mistaken" Im very sure I read an article at bb.com or t-nation, simplyshredded about it, and no Im no mistaken the pump which is merely increased blood flows as growth mr knowitall its the same misconception that overtraining is bad bad bad whilst u can overtrain if you couldnt train next week etc I know without proof as in articles its not convincing typically but if I can find it Ill post it here...

Oh and even if I couldnt find the article. Ask yourself what is growth? Whats required for muscle to grow?
Stimulus - exercise is needed to make the muscles work, use energy and cause microscopic damage to the fibers.<< this happen in gym my friend
Nutrition - after intense exercise the muscles need to replenish their stores of fuel.
Rest - it is during the rest or recovery phase that the muscles repair the microscopic damage and grow.

must be expensive? do you religiously hit ur protein intake daily?

As you go, you'll know if you're eating more or less. I don't really count what I eat.

I'm confused, you said muscle growth happens in the gym during training, 3 of us here said you are wrong, then you said you are right, then you said and bolded the word stimulus which causes microscopic damage to muscles, then you said rest is when the muscles grow....uh, I think you are contradicting yourself here. I am not a pro BBer but based on my knowledge and experience in training, I am confident to say that you are absolutely wrong.

Anyway, it's not important whether you grow inside or outside the gym, what matters is results. Who cares where you grow and what you do when a BB competitor is on the stage? I'm just trying to correct you by teaching you something and this is your attitude with your reply, so be it.

Bodybuilding isn't rocket science, just common sense. So I give a f*** about your references/articles for proof, because you won't find any saying muscle grows in the gym. If you still want to prove you are right, show me your training results.

So yeah
