A patriots fan I follow retweeted it.
just looking at the tweet pisses me off
i haven’t read the ‘tips’ yet

ok more protein
and eat more
A. Your weight in pounds.
B. Multiply A by 12 to get your basic calorie needs.
C. Multiply B by 1.6 to estimate your resting metabolic rate (calorie burn without factoring in exercise).
D. Strength training: Multiply the number of minutes you lift weights per week by 5.
E. Aerobic training: Multiply the number of minutes per week that you run, cycle, and play sports by 8.
F. Add D and E, and divide by 7.
G. Add C and F to get your daily calorie needs.
H. Add 500 to G. This is your estimated daily calorie needs to gain 1 pound a week.
lift every other day
Eat Every 3 Hours
Have a bowl of ice cream (any kind) 2 hours after your workout. According to a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, this snack triggers a surge of insulin better than most foods do. And that’ll put a damper on post-workout protein breakdown.
Milk before bed
WOW thats so easy at least 1 lb of muscle a week
So I’ll assume I’ll gain 2 lbs a week.
No mention of the every other day workout intensity.
So i’m going to do curls in the squat rack
i’ll admit, i know little about nutrition. but, i did the math and it says i should get 4800 calories per day, to get 1 pound per week. when i bulked, i got about 250-300 grams of protein and 5000-5500 calories and got something more than a pound per week, so i dont think this was extremely off. again, im 18 and know almost nothing, so…

Yeah, but you are 18, likely to be active, and have a faster metabolism. I thought the formula was way off… the average readership of Men’s Health is likely to be about 35 years old. Somehow I doubt the average 200 lb slob browsing that site is going to need to pack in 5k calories a day in order to build muscle.

i agree with you, maybe a more precise type should take into account lean mass only? dunno…
frank zane had a hell of of nutritionist and coach and knew a bit himself about the weightlifting game… he said 7 pounds of pure muscle is all you can put on in a years time, eating well, and training like a mad man… all these clowns that say they put on 20 poundsof muscle over the summer months and guys who say the gained 20-30 pounds of muscle in a year are slobs. full of shit slobs…

OMG so you talk funny. Well I have yet to hear or see you in the NFL thread, you are welcome to come and talk shit with the other Pats fan RANDMAN. We only talk football, no TMZ football talk, gently shit talking welcome.
Oh and sorry to hear about your slight retardation by being a pats fan.

wait… weren’t you the one saying that you looked like “a lean Frank Zane” and then disappeared from that thread after being asked for a pic?
Ever gonna put up a picture of your lean frank zane like physique? (you know… cause zane was known for being a little soft. I bet a lean version of him would look great)

Hahahahahahahahaha I used to be a celts fan when the NBA still played real basketball. I dont follow baseball I just today found out the MLB is still actually playing.
Now the Pats can they beat a good defense? Picture for you at one of those parades.
The patriots fan sent me a message with link to MH’s 8 perfect foods
this is perfect?
PB&J or Pasta With Meat Sauce
Good for: Muscle building and repair?
The perfect post-weight training repast has about 400 calories, with 20 to 30 grams of protein (to build new muscle) and 50 to 65 grams of carbohydrates (to repair old muscle). Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or a small bowl of pasta with meat sauce fits that formula.
