What is the best metabolic ratio to gain lean muscle mass while keeping the fat low... i've heard anywhere from 40 carb/30 pro/30 fat to 53 pro/37 carb/10 fat... HELP

I don't think that there is an absolute answer, it's a controversial question.
My opinion and what I try to follow is:
40 protein /40 carbs /20 fat

Im on a diet right now and it is 60-30-10. Ive had huge gains but not without huge effort in the gym.

60 protein? sure hope so
otherwise the only huge gains ur gonna make is around ur waistline..hehehe... thats what im trying right now actually!! but d*mn its hard to bring those carbs down...

NO NO NO!! 60 carbs, 30 protein, 10 fat. Sorry about that.

Posted by: soon2Bswoll
It is used for both. Lean muscle will come with the weight. Right now im 155 from 135 a month ago.

Great, i decided to give 40 pro/45 carb/15 fat a try...im loosing serious body fat!! my stomach is almost nearly flat (im so proud!) and i'm pretty sure i gained a milimeter on my biceps 
i'll wait 2 months and see, then i might try 40/40/20 a try if the improvements aren't too much....
