www.LeeHayward.com I’m going to break down the elements that make up a good muscle building meal. First off you need to consume a high protein intake. The general rule of 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight daily is a good place to start. I know there is a lot of controversy over protein intake, but the bottom line is I’ve never met a single person yet who was big and muscular who did not consume a high protein diet. Every single one of your meals needs to have a good source of protein. You should space your protein intake out equally over 6 small meals per day. You don’t have to be 100% spot on with this, but try your best to space your protein intake out so that you provide your body with a continuous supply of amino acids to help support muscle growth. This is how you would calculate out how much protein you should strive to eat for each meal. First you need to consume at least 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight daily. So for example if you weigh 175 lbs. then you should be eating at least 175 grams of protein per day. 175 grams of protein divided up over the course of 6 meals works out to approx. 30 grams of protein per meal. The best sources of protein are lean animal proteins such as Skinless Chicken Skinless Turkey Lean cuts of Beef, Pork, Lamb, etc. All kinds of Fish Eggs & Egg whites Dairy products like milk & cottage cheese These foods are complete proteins because they contain all of the essential amino acids needed for muscle growth.

LMFAOOOO! Wow, issues.
=) great
1hour per day dkhead
real good info tells you what you should hear !!!
wow…aren’t you cool… stop being such a dick. i enjoy being able to wipe my ass, and being able to do simple addition at least… oh, and not having steroids shrink my cock to the size of a macaroni and my testacles to the size of peas.
i’m off the simple carbs, but damn that orange creamsicle shake sounds good.
steroids don’t shrink your cock moron…do some research before you post up some bullshit excuse for being a small guy. Your cock is already small so shut up.
im the morning i have a proetien drink a couple fiber bars throught out the day some protien vegetables and bitamins is that a good diet?
How much is 0.6 ounces of water?
Yeah, but if you dont workout enough all that protein will become fat and fuel storage.
That’s true, but only if you’re eating excess calories to your needs.
jalloyd311 your a ass steroids do do that retard
This is great! And I love how you mention that we need carbs. All these know-it-all adkins dieters are killing themselves by neglecting carbs. I am a registered dietician and you are right on key!
i am following atkins diet so is it bad for me becoz i want to loose fat and bee purely shredded can anybody tell me ?
Atkins makes you stink like a dead animal. It’s bad for you. You need your carbs man or your body is just going to go straight to burning that protein for energy.
More so then just carbs, I say you need vegetables. A true atkins diet limits your veggie intake to get your carbs low enough. I’d say follow a low starch diet if you are training for fat loss, but still get in 10+ servings of green veggies each day.
In one of your videos, you said to keep the post workout drink simple and easy such as whey and dextrose. For God sakes, you buy your protein at costco!! You have all of this info on this video with percentages of carbs to protein and fractions and dividends of food ratios…I thought you wanted to keep it simple…im confused
So the whey protein im taking is ISO-FLEX and its carb-free. You have me worried that my carbs and by protein wont balance out. Although I tend to get alot of carbs from other things throughout the day. Should I change my protein brand? And when exactly should I take my protein. I was thinking like one for breakfast, one pre workout then another mixed with oj gatorade post workout. PLEASE REPLY, I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP MAN!
thanks
@NeonRaiin it depends on what you’re trying to do..
@WasabiSauce777
I guess it would, never really thought about that. Eating too much protein at any one meal also causes the excess protein to be stored as fat, luckily our bodys can absorb quite a bit of protein per meal.
Great videos, thanks!!
