Cmon Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 What food/drink/supplement would you suggest is the best for getting protein out of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudson Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Food: Chicken or tuna. Drink: Eggwhites, banana, peanut butter, milk, blended together. Supplement: Whey protein shakes, particularly the Isopure Zero-Carb Vanilla. For rapid "mass" gain, the Weider Mega-X000 series.

Cmon Posted January 16, 2005 Author Share Posted January 16, 2005 Would this be a protein full meal. Tuna sandwhich with banana and milk for a drink. I don't like the sound of all those blended together probably be sick trying to drink it Is it best to eat/drink protein full stuff after training or all the time?

senna_trem Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Sick stuff! Just get .8 grams of protein per kg of weight per day. Egg whites are very good for you. "I think therefore I am" Rene Descartes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudson Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Yeah, that'd be a pretty good meal for a mid-morning snack. The most important times to get protein are when you wake up and when you go to sleep. Technically for an athletic schedule you should take in protein every meal (.8 seems a little low to me, 1 to 1.5 is more of an active persons range). Some other examples might be a large chicken breast with 1 serving of fruit, milk to drink 2 pieces grilled salmon on a salad with a sports drink But you don't have to get protein all the time - I love vietnamese food and I constantly eat pho and egg roll vermicelli, neither of which are particularly high in protein but fairly health especially in terms of vegetables.

Omega14 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Instead of (cow) milk, you can opt for soy milk. (cow) milk has quite a bit of carbs in it. Egg whites are perhapes one of the best sources of protein. (It is pretty much pure protein) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fangshi Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Protien is important as it builds and repairs musles. No more than 1.8 gm of protien / kg of body wieght is needed and that amount is for heavy training . There are plenty of good supplements out there , some taste better than others . Make sure to look at the nutritional value chart to make sure you are getting the nutrients that you are looking for and nothing else. Some are higher in carbs , calories , sugars , and sodiums. All of which you may wish to avoid. As far as food sources go for low fat protien sources . Also look for protein sources with Omega 3 fatty acids . We are not so much individual beings as individual points of perception within one immense being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more than 1.8 gm of protien / kg of body wieght is needed and that amount is for heavy training . I don't think there is an exact number. the general reccomendation is 1g for the avg. and 1.5 - 2 if you do heavy training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmon Posted January 20, 2005 Author Share Posted January 20, 2005 Well i have just baught a weightloss shake. A supplement for a meal. Im planning to drink this in between meals in the day because im wanting to put a bit of weight on. This shake is full of vitimans/nutrients that i probably miss out on anyway. Is this a good idea?

ncole_91 Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 Would all those Protein shakes be good for a 14, 15 year old boy trying to get into good shape? If i had one for breakfast, then before bed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
