[QUOTE="swimfreak26, post: 597707, member: 544365"] First, protein is not anywhere near eating 3 steaks at once. The average dose of protein in a shake is between 20 and 40 mg and 3ozs of lean beef has about 25mg, and everyone eats more than 3 ounces by a long shot. Also, there is no way you're burning 8,000 calories a day. I was a swimmer in high school, which - besides cross country sking - burns more calories than any other physical activity. Swimming burns apporx. 1100 calories per hour, slightly more if doing vigorous workout (1500), and even at 4 hours of practice a day....which is less than you more than likely, I was burning 5-6000 a day. Running and land work burns nowhere near that much, so please don't take in that much....you will gain fat. EDIT: a note on roids. They are not necessarily bad for you.
