Hey guys,

I wanna know if anyone of you actually tried GOMAD or is still on GOMAD? I'm on my first week, great so far - gained 2kg and going to increase my milk intake gradually. Problem is, milk is not exactly cheap haha - so does anyone know of suppliers or wholesale for that matter?

Another thing, going by the rule of 1-1.5g protein per pound of bodyweight, how much is necessary for the tissue recovery n muscle growth? I heard its at least 1.. then what happens to the excess protein if we take more than 1.5g? Cuz my protein intake everyday is 140g, I'm 60kg atm. GOMAD currently is at 1L per day which is 30g protein per day, if its at 2L itll be 60g, and I still continue to eat the same amount, meaning my protein intake will increase by 30g per week, does it enhance growth or something? Cuz I've heard stories about enormous growth within a month via GOMAD.

Pardon me for overanalysing and calculating. I'm still eating as much as I can tho, just wanted to clear the air about this.

Nope, u dont grow more than wat ur body needed.
diff ppl have diff muscle growth rate and of coz same goes as muscle recovery. so, its hard to say. some ppl can recover their muscles in 48 hours, but some need longer time.
all of this very hard to say.
i guess best way is to maintain 1-1.5g per lbs body weight.
and do ur workout well, rest well.
then, i think naturally the growth will be visible after sometime.

I was thinking the same too, diff bodies react differently. I'm thinking of slowly increasing 250ml or 500ml per week until I can find a supplier who I can get full cream milk at rm 3-3.5 per Litre (LOL IMPOSSIBLE I KNOW)

JonYeap: thanks bro! for me now just keeping a consistent diet and increasing weights consistently!

u will have risk hypercalcemia,
hehe, i think u hsould balance your dite, according to daily requirement

I think its possible if u get in cartons. =.=
haha... try finding suppliers that can do big bulks.
maybe u can bulk with some of ur frens or lowyat members

hmmm... true.. too much of anything isnt good.. but I'm thinking its one of the quickest way to gain weight if paired with strength training, I hope to stop when I reach my target goal of 75-80kg.. see how first.. thinking of the cheapest alternative haha

try eggs as well.

Milk isn't top on a bodybuilder's list of proper bulking food. All it'll do is get you fat in the long term. Do it in moderation.

what is the proper bulking food? im interested to know

Chicken
Beef
Fish
Cheese

+++ eggs
- cheese

cheese will make u fat. =.=
hahaha

What about low fat cheese?

Gomad will definately make my stomach go mad. Tried to gulp down 1pack of HL in 3hours and the rest of the day i m having bloated stomach and feel and it feels like cramping, for all sudden i feel like a girl. =.=

this lasted til before i sleep. Crazy stuff. Lactose intolerance's enemy.

i love milk
wudnt take my whey without them (although this is not strictly exercised)
tapi no more than 1l per day and i take skim only

i think i am lactose intolerant. too bad. . i hate being one. thats why i am skinny like hell.

cottage cheese will do for its casein and lowest fat =)
