Everytime I read your guys' diet logs, I don't think I ever see anyone eating bananas. Is there a reason for this? They pack a lot of calories which could help, definitely for me, with increasing carloric intake for a bulk. I usually eat a banana a day in the morning for breakfast, many times with a serving of natty peanut butter with it...is this too much potassium or something, what's up?
 
I eat them occasionally. Nothing wrong with them. Just make sure the fit into your Caloric intake.

I wouldn't really say they are calorically dense though

Ditto! My evening protein shake is almost always, vanilla flavored whey, banana, scoop of peanut butter and ice. Blend and enjoy.
 
I love bananas. I usually eat one everyday.
 
Same here, love them in my proshakes.
I eat them before I train, old habit.

I also love to eat them with my cereal.
 
Bananas are one of my favorite fruits.

I eat them in protein shakes, eat them alone, put them on some kashi... I know, I know.. if I like them so much, why don't I marry them?

Uh-oh! Aw boy, just wondering what else you could be doing with the bananas. :roflmao:

Very good source of potassium. I sweat like a bear, so they're good after workouts / cardio.
 
I usually have 1 or 2 a day.
 
havnt eaten fruit in years. Thouse satan sugars raise triglyceride levels. Plus their gay fructose carbs dont inlisit an insulin response and are stored in ur liver. Fruit=useless. "Take in what is useful, disgard what is not" -Bruce Lee

It is ironic you used Bruce Lee's name, he ate natural foods...like fruits and vegetables!

Bruce Lee Diet Rule 4: Smaller Portions and More Meals

For Bruce Lee concentration on the type of foods eaten were not the only important consideration, the size of portions and number of meals were just as important. Bruce Lee would usually consume four or five smaller meals a day rather than a couple of large meals, plus some healthy snacks, such as fruits. Today body builders often follow similar eating habits, by eating high protein meals approximately every four hours to ensure the body has a good supply of proteins to help build and repair muscle tissue. Eating more often than every four hours can put too much pressure on the digestive system, and lead to indigestion. This is another reason why constant snacking is not good for you.

Bruce Lee Diet Rule 5: Drink Protein Drinks

Bruce Lee consumed one or two protein drinks every day, plus fruit smoothies too. Although his protein drinks varied, they generally consisted of:

Non-instant powdered milk - which is reported to have a higher concentration of calcium than other forms of powdered milk
Eggs - sometimes with the shells
Wheat germ / wheat germ oil
Peanut butter
Banana
Brewers yeast (contains concentrated B vitamins which are essential in the release of energy from carbohydrates).
Inositol supplement (Inositol is found in many foods, particularly in cereals with high bran content. Inositol plays an important part in the health of cell membranes especially the specialized cells in the brain, bone marrow, eyes and intestines. The function of the cell membranes is to regulate the contents of the cells, which makes effective functioning possible).
Lecithin take in granular form. (Lecithin is a mixture of glycolipids, triglycerides, and phospholipids. It is needed by every cell in the body and is a key building block of cell membranes; without it, they would harden. Lecithin protects cells from oxidation).

All ingredients would be mixed thoroughly in a food blender. Bruce Lee suggested that for better results (i.e. for gaining more muscle mass quicker) milk and cream be added too.

Please bear in mind that the supplements Bruce Lee took were popular when he was researching bodybuilding during the 1960's and early 1970's, and these supplements may now be superceded by ones which produce better results. Also bear in mind that all supplements may have side effects if taken to excess. It is best to check with your doctor / GP before starting a body building diet.
 
Sensamilia, now that I fixed your diet you are on the road to the Olympia!

Who told you this kind of rubbish? First read, then think, then speak. If you can't do any of the first two things properly, don't speak at all.
 
pfft fine do what ever makes you happy. The only sugar you should be consuming thou are the ones from milk.

And what is your source for this information, besides your ass of course?

If anything it is the complete opposite of what you just claimed. Many people find fat difficult to lose while consuming dairy, even if the rest of their diet is spot on. No such problems exist with fruit to my knowledge.

Or do you believe the sugars in milk are somehow magical?
 
I remember an online article titled "Why Bananas Are Evil" or something like that. Complete crap. It's an excellent food, even if cutting.

No, this is not too much potassium.

Bananas are great for you as long as your calories are under control.
 
LMAO... i actually laughed when I read that fruits are useless. Its a good thing most people on this site take everything with a grain of salt... I guess you know, before we had supplements, and had protein shakes, and creatine, and vitamin c,d,b12,safsdfdf pillsm, Men before us just didnt eat anything, because fruits are bad. Yeaaaaaaaaap that sounds just about right. Oh, and water actually is bad for glycogen levels...avoid it....seriously.
