wwwd Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 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!

I'm on the protein shakes, and now you've got me worried!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 BWMost appreciated, thank you! Will give you a shout once I cut out all the rubbish alltogether and I start training properly.No probs mate only a PM away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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?

LiamGTR Posted February 16, 2010 Author Share Posted February 16, 2010 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try and find a link on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
