I'm gonna go cri now thanks.
I luckily have whey protein powder, which is great because I don't have access to high protein foods. I haven't been using it though.
Use it.I'm gonna go cri now thanks.
I've been skipping meals once in awhile and not eating protein rich foods, which could be why I can't build muscle.

Also, I'm ectomorphic.

Noooooooooooooooooo
Yes and AAS's also influence, to a large extent, nutrient partitioning. So the carbs are used for muscle building much more than for being stored as bodyfat.
Ah, I get what you're saying. So would an average guy like me benefit from supplementing protein at all?
How many minutes a day do I need to work out to grow? Also, how long should my rest periods be?
3x a week, 30-40 mins is enough for me. focus on getting stronger to get bigger
You need all your macros to build muscle. Just eating protein is retarded. Carbs are very important for "bulk" and fullness and healthy fats are good for t levels
I always had the idea that you had to do it for a crazy amount of time. Maybe I'm overtraining myself and that's why I can't grow?
What's the ideal carb range? I'm probably on a carb/calorie deficit because I skip meals sometimes.
no dumbass. lift weights, get brutally strong on the basic movementsI always had the idea that you had to do it for a crazy amount of time. Maybe I'm overtraining myself and that's why I can't grow?

Also, how do I stop being skinnyfat? Cardio?
Well definition isn't really a priority with me, it's just that I want to have abs too. I've been skinnyfat for awhile and it's frustrating.
I'll probably stick with the protein supplements. It's easier for me to get my protein requirements that way.
Meat has vitamins that are needed to regulate hormone production, so If anything, I'd limit your protein from supplements to about 40-50g, and the rest should come from meat.
It just seems outrageous that you'd have to eat 4 chicken fillets everyday just to grow, let alone that much protein. From what I heard carbs are most important, and I'm not getting enough of it obviously.
I do try to supplement with meat whenever possible, along with some veggies for minerals. 50g sounds more realistic tbh.
Yes, carbs and fats are much more important for muscle gains. Still, 1g/kg of bodyweight must be met as a requirement.It just seems outrageous that you'd have to eat 4 chicken fillets everyday just to grow, let alone that much protein.

Yeah, no homo.

Every meal should have 40 g protein, 30 g carbs, 10 g fats
I'm kind of a lazy fuck though and like to have my meals on-the-fly rather than spend time counting macronutrients, so I'd rather just eat a typical meal and supplement.
This is pretty helpful, thanks.
Eat 1 gram per kilo if you're goal is to be a twink.
It is important but it’s overhyped by supplement industry to sell their bullshit products
