    Default What are your macro nutrient totals

    With the posts about if resistance training is even beneficial without proper protein intake, it got me wondering: How much protein/carbs/fats do you guys/gals consume offseason and precontest.

    Conditioning totals are as follows...

    I have found with myself noticeable gains increasing from to roughly 300 grams a day of protein...any more doesn't seem to do much but raise my blood sugar. So I have always thought of it as overkill. I know some guys are eating well over 500. Not that there are any rights or wrongs.

    While dieting I now have to drop my carbs to roughly 175-200 (it will get lower) and keep fats a minimum roughly 15-20 grams. I basically sit behind a computer all damn day. Back when I was personal training full time I could literally eat double.

    Keep in mind I am early in on my diet. I started cleaning it up 6 weeks ago, and for the last 3.5 actually following a plan. I started at roughly 230 and now weigh 218lbs with with nothing on...pic from this morning.

    The last study I saw came to the conclusion that one can consume 20 grams of protein per meal. I find it very hard to believe that a 90lb bikini competitor can eat what I eat and I can ea what Jay Cutler eats...

    offseason: 350p/350cb/trace fats, cardio every 3rd day and cheat once or twice a week

    precontest: 30%pro/50%cb/20%ft from maint and adjust every 2 weeks form there.

    Currently putting on lean size. I am 220lbs at about 7-8% body fat. I have a progress log in the journals section. Right now I'm eating roughly:

    Protein 1.5g/lb LBM = 325g
    Carbs: 2.5g/lb LBM = 525g
    Fat: ~.25g/lb LBM = 35-50g
