yeah
that's way too much
*whey* too much
har har har
How were you consuming it? In a protein shake?
mostly mixed into food
ew
at the time my base food was lentils+rice+butter or coconut milk+protein powder, then spiced heavily
but even eating that much protein, my gains were gradually disappearing
and I began developing gingivitis and brittle hair and other issues even though I was supplementing vitamins and tracking micros on cronometer
I had no energy even though I was slamming caffeine
did you see a doctor
then I switched back to a retardedly simple diet of like... 3/4 plate vegetables, 1/4 plate chicken/eggs/butter and now I'm entirely fine
I don't even eat much and I am entirely fine
on paper the amount of protein I eat vs my weight and physical workload should have me dying of overtraining, yet I am entirely fine
@Deleted User 57835c2c training naturally
you will peak early
and then that's pretty much it
what do you mean peak early
and then whatever you do just keeps it there
more or less
that's how the whole industry works
off people who start to work out
I do my stuff by trial and error
all I know really is the history of things I have tried vs how it turned out
I don't even know what the science or fitness youtubers or whatever say on this topic anymore
I saw a few pics of Cristiano Ronaldo recently
dude is jacked to a level that's become obviously unnatural
size is definitely a false goal
he used to be thin
now does Cristiano Ronaldo work out his upper body hardcore in the gym?
I wouldn't think so
it doesn't make sense to
for a football player
I am one of those guys who actually does have the genetics to be stupid strong, but I do not look like a bodybuilder and never will
you already have most of your strength
if you're already really strong
then it may be the case
I can shoulder press 200 at least
