ThreeGigs, thank you so much for your incredibly well-informed contributions to this thread. My interest in protein comes from a completely unrelated direction: I use it to kill hunger, and nothing suppresses ghrelin longer than a large meal of mostly protein. Some protein sources seem to...

^ this - also read Homework 1 in my sig, please.

^^ This. To the OP, please read homework 1 - a lot of the questions you're asking are in there. Not sure why you're eating six meals a day if you're trying to eat less. Also, your workouts are way too long for a cutter. While cutting, you'll generally train less than while bulking (less food...

af92 speaks the truth. You can read homework 1 to see what we're talking about. Believe it or not, you're likely more comfortable on low calories eating 3 meals a day than eating six unsatisfying micro-snacks, and there is NO metabolic advantage to eating more frequently, so eat your three...

Here's another, more recent article on this topic, by Alan Aragon Is there a limit to how much protein the body can use in a single meal? Alan Aragon, February 22nd, 2010 Introduction A longstanding belief in fitness circles is that the body can only use a certain amount of protein per meal...

Night_Wolf, why don't you believe whey is anti-catabolic? What food property is missing?

Try increasing your potassium intake, and be sure to drink plenty of water. The bloating should settle down if that's the reason.

No shit. :roflmao:

Whey before bed is useless? Really. Now how come? To the OP, I eat a large dinner late in the evening when I'm cutting. I hate going to bed hungry. I'd rather skip breakfast and eat later in the day - so that's what I do. If a whey shake agrees with you, go for it.

This is really helpful - thank you for posting it.

Okay thanks - this is helpful. Please read homework 1 in my sig and come back with answers to the diet questions in there. Why iron tablets by the way - are you anemic?

NP lol - happens all the time. ;) GreatWhite told you what to do. :thumb:

LOL - I'm a chick, and you're welcome. 604Guy, look up the difference between a SERM and an AI. You need to know what they both do.

Unsupported t-bars one-arm dumbbell rows deadlifts weighted chins; overweighted negative chins (stand on the raised end of an incline bench to self-assist on the way up) Regarding chins - if you want your lats to do the work, keep your grip narrower than shoulder-width, and neutral. This way...

Okay, you're still pretty lean, so the excess estradiol isn't from excess adipose. You might want to run a very low dose of an AI for a bit longer, but ask the guys. Bump!

Read homework 1 - everything you need to get started is in there, and it's free.

Okay - wow - that's a lot of conditioning work. Mind posting up your goals, height, weight, current diet (calories, grams protein, carb and fat), are you gaining on this diet, or losing, or maintaining? How tall are you and what do you weigh? What is your background in fitness - are you an...

This was from another of the OP's threads: You're not yet fully recovered from your cycle that ended with the completion of your PCT 5 weeks ago. What is your bodyfat currently, and are you gaining weight?

This part - the references are at the end. The citations go from 7) to 9), and seem to skip past 8)
