Where the hell can I find HEALTHY snack bars!?

Just get some meat on a stick. Awesome. 100% protein. Job done, no carbs, some healthy fats.

That's my point, i don't need none of these protein bars I get enough protein from my diet and supplements and too much protein is dangerous (potential death)

Potential death?

 

Are you joking?

Nope not joking at all mate; Ketosis & Liver damage to name just a few...

How much protein are we talking here?

 

I'm on the protein shakes, and now you've got me worried!

Good topic to watch. I am watching what I eat.

Lol no problem mate but yea not that deep just like something I can snack on every now and again :D

Don't worry about it mate i'd put money on it your protein with 1 scoop will give you only around 20g of protein which is good for muscle build/repair but not enough to worry about

 

For a baseline you should stick to these (all measures are Grams(g) of Protein per(/) Kilogram(kg) of Bodyweight(BW)):

  • Sedetary: 0.8g - 1.2g/kg BW
  • Active: 1.2g - 1.4g/kg BW
  • Weight/Strength Training: 1.4g - 1.6g/kg BW
  • Extreme endurance athletes: 1.6g - 1.8g/kg BW
  • MAXIMUM UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES: 2g/kg BW

Most appreciated, thank you!

Cheers for that.

 

Well I only have one shake every morning then one after a workout - so one on a non-workout day and two on a workout day.

 

That sound alright or should I be having more/less?

Less really, although protein does help with hormones, enzymes and hair growth etc. proteins main use is to build & repair muscles ripped and torn which occured during a workout there isn't a reason to take one in a morning when you've just woke up, not like you've been working out in your sleep, lol

Ah right, I'm sure I read somewhere that having one first thing in the morning is beneficial.

 

I'll try and find a link on it.
