How Much Protein do we Really Need? When should we Eat it Dieting vs Bulking Part 1

[sfdsfda]

YouTube is awesome though. Like, teenagers don't understand how cool it is to be able to just watch a bodybuilder rant/educate you for free. 20 years ago.... Nah

Favourite quote "if you only eat twice a day, that's less than five times a day" 🤣

“I eat 500 grams of protein per day look how big my arms are”
Greg:
😂😂😂😂😂

[IanasAlexandruCornel]

This guy is the GOAT of fitness industry, always puts up great content! 👏💪

I just shake my head when someone told a 140lbs guy to eat around 600g of protein per day

Greg's 1st law of thermodynamics: "You can't just create energy without doing something". Priceless! You're the best!!!

i used to listen to big names, like athlean x, jeremy either, igor of virtutuan, nippard and others .. but man, lately .. lately its different . mostly i will find greg first before continuing my research to back up my info. wtf is this ?! greg doucette after effect?! . this guy is so fucking authentic wish i knew him earlier than most.

Greg is quickly becoming one of my favorite YouTuber's. I look forward to his videos every day now.

0:22 to 0:30 for the answer

1) 0.5 to 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. I’d personally say do 0.72 to 1.1 gram of protein per lb of lean mass. Greg says *optimal* would be 1 gram per lb of lean body mass.
2) Eat 5 protein meals a day to *MAXIMIZE* muscle protein synthesis (muscle building ability).

Greg deserves a Noble Prize for helping out the MATH challenged people...

[CyborgGaming]

This channel is pure gold. Thank you for this my dude

[NumberOneStirlingite]

Extra protein is just an expensive source of carbs. Gluconeogenesis.

I subscribed to hear “Zeeero” everyday

First Youtube video I've ever commented on....and I've been on this platform for over a decade. This is by far the best informative channel for bodybuilding right next to John Meadows' channel. Learned a ton in just a few weeks. Keep up the awesome content Greg!

[royanisi]

Greg, I started watching your channel about a month ago and I am so fucking hooked. It's two or three video a day going back on archive. Just wanted to say thank you for great informative and educational chanel. There are lots of crap on the net and I am not an expert but you seem to always back your information with fact, science and or personal experience. Thank you, sir.

I'm slowly building up my diet - mostly - based on Greg's teachings:

Meal 1 - French toast 42 g protein (4 eggs, 3 slices wholegrain bread)

Meal 1.1 - Snack on fruit

Meal 2 - Lunch - varies from 40 ~70 g protein (usually beans, fish/chicken, veggies)

Meal 3 - Sandwich/Wrap 20 g of protein (ham, turkey ham, tuna mayo, burger patty + some greens like spinach or lettuce - all on wholegrain bread)

Meal 4 - Bowl of salad & Protein smoothie 40 g protein (40 g pea protein, 10 g hemp protein, 3 g collagen powder; 50 g frozen berries, half a frozen banana, ginger, cinnamon, 3/4 glass water)

On the off-chance I'm still hungry I eat some air-popped popcorn or sugar free jelly.

Other substitute meals : ham & veggie omelette, pasta for lunch with ground turkey breast and tomato sauce, banana & blueberry pancakes.

I might start making homemade protein bars as a sandwich substitute in the future.

From South Africa here and I just wanna say thank you for such an amazing video, perfectly constructed

[andrewcorson]

Wow, finally some better info about protein. I've been following the dieting info I have learned from this channel and have dropped from 214 to 202 so far. My target weight is around 180.

Is it possible your vids keep getting better by the day?!
