[QUOTE="Cobra Commander, post: 1639805, member: 565574"] Dante I agree with PV audio. There is a lot that could be taken into account as well. To add size/mass/weight you do need to eat right. Eat carbs, eat fat, and protein. The rule of thumb is 1 gram of protein per lb of body weight. You dont need whey protein, it helps if you can't eat a full meal all the time, but is not necessary. I think the split is 40 - 30 - 30 ( Pro - cabrs - fat). You absolutely need fat, even saturated fat. It has anabolic propoerites and promotes testosterone production. But dont over consume, stay as low as feasible but make sure you get it. Mono-unsat fats should make up the rest (olive oil, omega-3, flaxseed, etc) Your carb source, be it high or low glycemic should not matter too much since you are going for added size, but lower gly foods provide longer sustained energy. Instead of buying protien, I buy chicken, steak, albacore tuna, salmon etc. Overall, you can do it with or without added protein shakes, it just requires more on your part. And make sure you take glutamine through out the day to preserve your current muscle and prevent catabolism. - Gigagaia Great inpunt for the most part from the rest of you.
