I want to bulk my body
Great infograph, thanks.
Not using supplements? Really?
The 6 meals a day is also under debate. Otherwise, not too bad.
A few issues:
Protein intake: Suggesting as much as 1.7g per pound? For a 180 lb male, that’s over 300g of protein per day. This alone flies in the face of your other “stats” like only eating 35g of protein per sitting, and limiting protein intake to 25-30% of daily macros. Also, when suggesting carb intake, why say its per kg of body weight, when just prior to that you suggest protein intake to per lb of body weight. Keep it consistent.
The human body can only digest 35 grams of protein in one sitting? Pure bullocks. That’s a long debunked myth.The research has been done on this. Google is your friend.
“Your body is able to regulate the speed at which protein moves through the small intestines to ensure it can absorb all of the available amino acids.
This isn’t just theory, either.
A study conducted by scientists the National Human Nutrition Research Center (France) had 16 young women eat 79% of the day’s protein (about 54 grams) in one meal or four meals over the course of 14 days.
Researchers found no difference between the groups in terms of protein metabolism.”
And that 6 meals per day thing? Also way off the mark. Just another long held myth about “timing your nutrients” that sounds great, but utterly ignores how human beings metabolize nutrients.
