Genuinely incredible video. I know this is a step in sort of a different direction but you should give a shot at talking about the different sources of protein and their respecrive qualities
Damn man, I appreciate your videos so much. Thanks Ryan for the info and humor. In my younger years I lived in San Diego, surfed 5 days/week (before/after work and on the weekends) and worked out... even with drinking on the weekends I stayed in good shape. At 50 years old, living in the PNW with my family, I'm looking at my dad bod and realizing all those IPAs I dutifully crushed were not a good path for maintaining my younger shape, so working to fix that. The protein debate rages hard between me and wifey. She's a runner and is convinced she doesn't need much protein. She's a biochem undergrad, so I'll let this video's info bukakke her brain and see what happens.
Ironically, distance/endurance activities require more protein, because it increases breakdown. Have you ever seen how ultra endurance runners look? Some are almost a stick. That's what happens when you break down way more than you build up.
I made a point to just get 3 scoops (75) of protein a day from iso with milk, just to set a bear minimum intake everyday. It was initially to make sure I recover from work properly. Worked great! Got even better once I started lifting.
@@cergic its not. Its just protein. Without any fiber or significant micronutrients and its predigested so its absorbed quick so satiety is low compared to food. Capish?
Bruh. Your spotlight on the N64 and bean flicking analogy struck home. I am now in awe of where I developed such an astounding skill set. Dope laugh man!!
Great videos, I love watching them as soon as they come out. If you are going to quote studies it would be useful to hear or see some references. For all the people that are not "sauced to the gills". The general protein intake recommendations from the NIH and most Harvard studies(basically all nutritional scientists) is 0.8g protein/kg of bodyweight. A simple google search of recommended protein intake will show this from multiple/reputable sources, including Harvard, The British heart association and the mayo clinic. So don't worry about protein intake, eat clean and workout hard.
My understanding of the protein absorption rate of 30g was actually per hour not per meals. So if you eat a meal with 90g of protein and it takes 12 hours for that meal to move through your intestines (based on Chinese dinner and morning poo(you know the burn)) then you get 30g of protein per hour for the first 3 hours.
People like you is what we need in the community who helps us ignorant people regarding fitness and health. Science and fiction plays a big part in our lives and the thing is that we don’t have much knowledge on that unless we specifically go and take a class on it (meaning we pay money to gain knowledge) which in many peoples view may be weird which in itself is not but not a lot of people are motivated to do it because of that. That’s why people like you are a big help to the community of the masculine striving warriors like us who strive to become better day by day!
So would you count protein from non-complete protein sources such as rice, bread, vegetables etc. towards that protein intake goal? Given that you eat a complete protein with it.
Some of these takes are just wrong. I have a close friend who did his Masters thesis on mTor and protein synth and some of this is awful advice. Especially since it's backed by a single study. For instance: 10g from 100g isn't right. Meals right before bed are a terrible idea (I can verify this myself, using months of my own sleep data as proof). He is right about Sen2. But those big things, especially about mTor, lacking context and more research.
So optimally how much protein do i need per kg? Because ngl im struggling to barely hit 120g a day and im a 29 year old guy. Even when i hit it im pretty sure im in a slight caloric deficit.
Leucine threshold does not rely on a set figure or number; it ranges from 1.8 g - 3.0 g. It can be roughly achieved by ~ 25 g of protein coming from a highly bioavailable protein source (a.k.a. animal sources). I understand that giving the ‘advice’ on protein intake would hold more credibility coming from a spectacularly muscular individual such as yourself, than, say, scientists who have indeed carried out plenty of research on all things protein, such as Schoenfeld or Phillips (deep core protein metabolism research), only to mention few. The more protein you eat at a certain point, the more static (flat) the MPS curve remains (and mMPS as well), but the more urea, creatinine, nitrogen, transamination and deamination take place in your blood, hence the kidneys to excrete. Put in another way: the more you waste your money. P.S. major research states that evenly distributed protein meals remain to be the best as long as you reach leucine threshold, total protein daily intake, and total energy daily requirement. P.S. 2. It has also been quite demonstrated that one of the major drawbacks in very high protein diets, is that once you start cutting down on protein (for whatever reason in your personal life), muscle takes the toll (muscle goes to waste more rapidly the more protein you have been ingesting)
Basically, get detailed advice from actual dietitians and exercise scientists like Renaissance Periodization), not your crazy uncle on tren with an EMG and WebMD obsession
Thank you, taking too much protein is useless, that whole "GET YOUR 2G PER KG INTAKE" is straight up madness for naturals, people who are naturals won't synthetize all that protein, they will just ruin their kidneys, and basically piss up their money. Eating enough protein is fairly easy, when people bust my balls about nutrition it just annoys me to hell, just exercises, eat enough protein, get some rest, and eventually your muscles will grow. It's not rocket science.
Huge thanks for putting the effort to make this one! I've been trying to wrap my brain around this for a while, not sure of how much, how frequently and when to consume my protein. I had the basic understanding that i should go for 20-30 grs per meal and try to hit my 150gr per day (im at 75kg bw). This helped me a ton, reassured i was doing right by eating my main meal post workout/before bed, now i just got to arrange my meals a little bit better and keep grinding!
Why do I get the feeling that he was on his way home from the store and saw that scooter by a trash can, took it home and used it specifically for his videos..
Ryan, Specific to first meal of the day for high protein and right after workout... What's your opinion/recommendation for me, who works out at 5:30a.m. before work (my first meal IS right after the workout; 7:00 a.m.? I have been approaching those workouts while fasted. Thank you.
well.. for one side you have the "optimal" and for other side you have the "posible"/"achievable"/"real", etc... so in other words when your first meal is at the same time of your postworkout because in your schedule they are fused, eat a good amount of protein and go on, you will not loose so much, maybe it will not be the optimal and you cant compete on an ironman or win against usain bolt, but you will do good is you keep a good amount of macros, a good calorie surplus and train often.
Wow, you're so edgy.... did you even watch the video and absorb the information? I guess you already do everything perfectly, look through studies, apply what you've learned and therefore are above it all. Thanks for your valuable input. Now you can return to your self-fellating.
Not True. “The Gear”is like an engine. Without GAS no engine makes power. Gear gives you the potential to make power but without correct fuel (protein + leucine?) it falls short of full power. His observations are valuable for anyone trying to build muscle. You are correct ppl on gear do make gains without paying attention to nutrition BUT gains could be maximized/made better if they took in correct protein. Same goes for ppl not on gear… IMO
Once again thanks . From a man in his 60s who knows what it's like not to get big eating anything ( you killed me with the toaster strudel comment ) 😅 I've had a few major surgeries that have set me back but, soon I will be back in the gym . Thanks for your instructional , and funny videos .
I'm just starting to get back at it, and I'm so glad you clarified the meal intake. Just hit 53, and I struggle to get all my grams in daily. But now I know how to split it up better with this example. Much appreciated!
Greaaaaaaat. Switched to morning trainings so I can actually do it properly without the bs excuses from life and now thanks to this advice I need to be up at 4am to eat! Kill me, kill me now. One of your most informative vids sir, thank you, From an older dude who won’t stop lifting 💪🏼
SPOT ON! It would be nice if some of these YT jackwagons would understand these basic facts you spelled out here. Ladies pay attention close attention. You cant really follow most of what is being said on about 99% of the YT channels about YOUR DIET.. If you're over 40.. THE GAME HAS CHANGED - PERIOD! And vastly 99% of them arent equiped to correctly address the why and the how..things work when you hit about 40+. YOU SIMPLY NEED MORE PROTEIN- PERIOD! Your goal/your focus is to put on as much muscle as you can..and no that doesnt mean bodybuilder level.. unless you want that.. but muscle is sexy for older women - PERIOD! And you're not going to acheive that if you're barely meeting the min requirement .. .7grams/per desired pound of bodyweight WILL NOT CUT IT. Building muscle as we get old is much tougher..all very true! AND to add insult to that ugly injury... you're simple not producing nearly the same level of gh.. SORRY BUT THAT'S A FACT. CRANK UP THE DAMN PROTEIN.. YOU CANT SHOVEL A DAY'S WORTH OF PROTEIN IN TO ONE MEAL EITHER OR TWO MEALS.. YOU NEED 3 TO 4 MEALS FOR YOUR BODY TO CORRECTLY ASSIMILATE WHAT IT NEEDS FROM THAT FOOD! If someone is trying to tell to do OMAD (one meal aday).. tell them to piss off- cause their blowing smoke! Putting on muscle and dropping body fat takes time.. IT JUST DOES.. dont be impatient.. be consistant. If you're trying to drop 25, 35, 45 pounds.. your goal shouldnt be to dump that weight overnight or in a week or a month.. YOU DIDNT PUT IT ON IN A WEEK OR A MONTH.. so why would it be smart to dump it in a week or month? And your skin may not like the sudden drop of weight either.. like saggy/ wrinkles sort of thing. Putting on muscle will fill out some of the loose skin. If some of these YT jackwagons would pull their heads out of their arss.. and educated themselves on diet and fitness for the over 40 crowd.. they'd have a pretty good number of ears.. Cant people over 40 get in screaming good physical shape? ABSOLUTELY.. but ya gotta want it. We should be healthy and physical fit well into our 80's folks!
I personally shoot for about 150 to 180 grams of quality whole complete protein per day meat protein!!!.. and at age 66 I'm finally putting on some muscle, but *it's taken 1 year to see results* ..and that's actually pretty fast, but I do some fairly extensive resistance training/weight lifting for my age and size. The most difficult part is loosing the viceral fat/sub q fat..and that's likely true for most women.
I am 36 yo and not particularly into being athletic or a "gym bro" but I had a N64 since like I was 10 or so and never realized this analogy! So I subbed just for that! A guy who has such an insight is surely a guy I can learn something from lol xD
That gag after saying "The intracellular signaling pathways are disgustingly confusing" 0:32 ... yeah, ok, take my LF&S. Now on to the rest of your video... lol
Before sports science and the internet Bodybuilders had a debate Half a gram of protein/1 gram of protein / 1 and half gram of protein per body weight But all agreed the minimum was 2 grams per body weight for hypertrophy Then out of nowhere people started talking about you lean body not overall body weight People then started confusing the matter even more by say what are calorie levels It was simple just go by body weight as had work for over 50 years Nowadays you can't eat too much protein as it's bad for you you have to have a maximum of 60 g of protein a day, can't digest more than 20 g of protein per meal and so on When I was training in my teens/early 20s I used to have minimum of 40 g protein per meal but my protein shakes I made had minimum of 60 g per drink
Dude... it sucks to be old you said. Well... if i look like you at your age. Thank you Lord motivation science aaaaand your workout. Especially the leg workout who almost made me faint in a full gym. Thanks again for posting
Dude, I cant remember the last time I laughed out loud while watching a youtube video. The N64 controller muscle memory teaching you how to flick a bean killed me.
I love how the more we learn the more we go around in circles. Everything hes sayin makes a ton of sense to me even without all the micro details. Used to simplify this to 5 meals, 3 large 3, 2 snacks. 3 large were protein dense of which the entire meal was 80-90% protein. Those three were brkfst, post wrkout, before bed. The sncks were inbetween the protein meals would include some minor sugar (usually drk choc) to spike insulin. Casein protein was consumed as the before bed protein as it was thought to “burn slower” and keep you anabolic throughout the night allowing that breakfast the next morning to be similar in protein synth as the meal post workout.
he's got a workout plan u can buy, meal plans are overrated. Get your protein in, add carbs, fat and fiber to reach caloric goal for the day..... make it palatable by eating the things u like, as long as it's not garbage food...it's really that simple
@@MrLardobutt I been training ten years plus and I'm 18% body fat and 255 lbs meal plans are not overrated and unlike trying different ppls methods and none of this is simple or everyone would be in shape
5:34 sums it all up. But watch the whole thing so you understand why, and when you believe in what you're doing you're going to be more consistent. So watch it.. :) 5:09 prioritize 3 meals.
I have been following you for some time now. And you're videos on the right. Exercise for each muscle group is great. Could you or will you be putting together A video with a full body breakdown of each muscle exercise.
Fantastic video. I have only ever watched one video of yours before but this was really a good one. Exactly what I have preached the others before, but the aging part where you require more protein is super interesting

The general protein intake recommendations from the NIH and most Harvard studies(basically all nutritional scientists) is 0.8g protein/kg of bodyweight. A simple google search of recommended protein intake will show this from multiple/reputable sources, including Harvard, The British heart association and the mayo clinic. So don't worry about protein intake, eat clean and workout hard.
My understanding of the protein absorption rate of 30g was actually per hour not per meals. So if you eat a meal with 90g of protein and it takes 12 hours for that meal to move through your intestines (based on Chinese dinner and morning poo(you know the burn)) then you get 30g of protein per hour for the first 3 hours.
People like you is what we need in the community who helps us ignorant people regarding fitness and health. Science and fiction plays a big part in our lives and the thing is that we don’t have much knowledge on that unless we specifically go and take a class on it (meaning we pay money to gain knowledge) which in many peoples view may be weird which in itself is not but not a lot of people are motivated to do it because of that. That’s why people like you are a big help to the community of the masculine striving warriors like us who strive to become better day by day!
So would you count protein from non-complete protein sources such as rice, bread, vegetables etc. towards that protein intake goal? Given that you eat a complete protein with it.
First video I watch from this dude. HOLY SHIT this is the best video I've seen on the subject. Insta subscribed
Some of these takes are just wrong. I have a close friend who did his Masters thesis on mTor and protein synth and some of this is awful advice. Especially since it's backed by a single study.
For instance: 10g from 100g isn't right. Meals right before bed are a terrible idea (I can verify this myself, using months of my own sleep data as proof).
He is right about Sen2. But those big things, especially about mTor, lacking context and more research.
So optimally how much protein do i need per kg? Because ngl im struggling to barely hit 120g a day and im a 29 year old guy.
Even when i hit it im pretty sure im in a slight caloric deficit.
Wow..Fantastic presentation.....you ROCK!!!!
What took over 40 years of my life to know in 9:24. Thanks!
Loved this video!
Funny but very intuitive!
Just got another subscriber!
Also doing cardio first thing before a meal is not ideal then! Woops.
Leucine threshold does not rely on a set figure or number; it ranges from 1.8 g - 3.0 g. It can be roughly achieved by ~ 25 g of protein coming from a highly bioavailable protein source (a.k.a. animal sources).
I understand that giving the ‘advice’ on protein intake would hold more credibility coming from a spectacularly muscular individual such as yourself, than, say, scientists who have indeed carried out plenty of research on all things protein, such as Schoenfeld or Phillips (deep core protein metabolism research), only to mention few.
The more protein you eat at a certain point, the more static (flat) the MPS curve remains (and mMPS as well), but the more urea, creatinine, nitrogen, transamination and deamination take place in your blood, hence the kidneys to excrete.
Put in another way: the more you waste your money.
P.S. major research states that evenly distributed protein meals remain to be the best as long as you reach leucine threshold, total protein daily intake, and total energy daily requirement.
P.S. 2. It has also been quite demonstrated that one of the major drawbacks in very high protein diets, is that once you start cutting down on protein (for whatever reason in your personal life), muscle takes the toll (muscle goes to waste more rapidly the more protein you have been ingesting)
Basically, get detailed advice from actual dietitians and exercise scientists like Renaissance Periodization), not your crazy uncle on tren with an EMG and WebMD obsession
Thank you, taking too much protein is useless, that whole "GET YOUR 2G PER KG INTAKE" is straight up madness for naturals, people who are naturals won't synthetize all that protein, they will just ruin their kidneys, and basically piss up their money.
Eating enough protein is fairly easy, when people bust my balls about nutrition it just annoys me to hell, just exercises, eat enough protein, get some rest, and eventually your muscles will grow. It's not rocket science.
Huge thanks for putting the effort to make this one! I've been trying to wrap my brain around this for a while, not sure of how much, how frequently and when to consume my protein. I had the basic understanding that i should go for 20-30 grs per meal and try to hit my 150gr per day (im at 75kg bw). This helped me a ton, reassured i was doing right by eating my main meal post workout/before bed, now i just got to arrange my meals a little bit better and keep grinding!
I’ve lost a lot of weight this year and wanted to focus on pure muscle gains and proper routines. Thanks a ton for all of this info, mate!
I’ve been raising my hand since you started.🙋🏼
Why do I get the feeling that he was on his way home from the store and saw that scooter by a trash can, took it home and used it specifically for his videos..
Only took you like a gazillion years to get an app. Thanks and welcome to 2023 Ryan :) Much Love
Ryan, Specific to first meal of the day for high protein and right after workout... What's your opinion/recommendation for me, who works out at 5:30a.m. before work (my first meal IS right after the workout; 7:00 a.m.? I have been approaching those workouts while fasted. Thank you.
well.. for one side you have the "optimal" and for other side you have the "posible"/"achievable"/"real", etc... so in other words when your first meal is at the same time of your postworkout because in your schedule they are fused, eat a good amount of protein and go on, you will not loose so much, maybe it will not be the optimal and you cant compete on an ironman or win against usain bolt, but you will do good is you keep a good amount of macros, a good calorie surplus and train often.
Best edited and entertaining fitness videos on TH-cam. Thanks Ryan
What would we do without you trying to keep your platform by reminding us how we do every exercise, stretch, and now eat wrong?
Wow, you're so edgy.... did you even watch the video and absorb the information? I guess you already do everything perfectly, look through studies, apply what you've learned and therefore are above it all. Thanks for your valuable input. Now you can return to your self-fellating.
he's athlean X with more humor lmao I fucking love him
This guys videos are some of the best you will ever see!
Thank you Ryan!
Damn, this guy tried hard to talk 10 minutes straight of a complex topic to an audience with an attention span of 20 seconds. Nice work.
Seriously funny!! Was not expecting this to be so entertaining and informative! Well done sir 👏
I never understand why someone who is on gear likes to talk about protein intake. He can drink water and still make gains 😂
Not True. “The Gear”is like an engine. Without GAS no engine makes power.
Gear gives you the potential to make power but without correct fuel (protein + leucine?) it falls short of full power.
His observations are valuable for anyone trying to build muscle. You are correct ppl on gear do make gains without paying attention to nutrition BUT gains could be maximized/made better if they took in correct protein. Same goes for ppl not on gear… IMO
this is the best bodybuilding nutrition video ive come across
Roids getting you big as he'll. 😂
I’ve met a lot of people on this app, but nothing like you. And I’m a Pharmacist, Welldone bro , seriously 👏🏾🙏🏽
Damn I love this man. Content and way it's presented are SUPERB. Go Ryan!
This was a sick video! Thanks!
Once again thanks . From a man in his 60s who knows what it's like not to get big eating anything ( you killed me with the toaster strudel comment ) 😅 I've had a few major surgeries that have set me back but, soon I will be back in the gym . Thanks for your instructional , and funny videos .
Probably the most in depth explanation of the human body in relation to muscle growth ive watched in a long time
I'm just starting to get back at it, and I'm so glad you clarified the meal intake. Just hit 53, and I struggle to get all my grams in daily. But now I know how to split it up better with this example.
Much appreciated!
Best protein educational video i've seen for how to and when to consume. Thanks, Ryan!
Love this dude 😅😂😂, this is better then any comedy show, but also tesching you stuff 10/10
Greaaaaaaat. Switched to morning trainings so I can actually do it properly without the bs excuses from life and now thanks to this advice I need to be up at 4am to eat! Kill me, kill me now. One of your most informative vids sir, thank you,
From an older dude who won’t stop lifting 💪🏼
The fact that you just shouted out Toaster Streudels got you a subscription buddy.
Amazing info and entertaining dude as always
This was brilliant. I was smiling the whole time. The examples are memorable to say the least!!!!😅😅
@Josh Seay: Amazing video, 20 years lifting and research, and never seen this so concisely and thourougly explained. Awesome
Funny as Ryan. Thanks man. Those analogies slayed me 😂
Despite riding a scooter around while delivering your lecture, this feels like the most credible explanation of protein synthesis I've heard yet.
SPOT ON! It would be nice if some of these YT jackwagons would understand these basic facts you spelled out here. Ladies pay attention close attention.
You cant really follow most of what is being said on about 99% of the YT channels about YOUR DIET.. If you're over 40.. THE GAME HAS CHANGED - PERIOD! And vastly 99% of them arent equiped to correctly address the why and the how..things work when you hit about 40+. YOU SIMPLY NEED MORE PROTEIN- PERIOD!
Your goal/your focus is to put on as much muscle as you can..and no that doesnt mean bodybuilder level.. unless you want that.. but
muscle is sexy for older women - PERIOD! And you're not going to acheive that if you're barely meeting the min requirement .. .7grams/per desired pound of bodyweight WILL NOT CUT IT.
Building muscle as we get old is much tougher..all very true! AND to add insult to that ugly injury... you're simple not producing nearly the same level of gh.. SORRY BUT THAT'S A FACT.
CRANK UP THE DAMN PROTEIN.. YOU CANT SHOVEL A DAY'S WORTH OF PROTEIN IN TO ONE MEAL EITHER OR TWO MEALS.. YOU NEED 3 TO 4 MEALS FOR YOUR BODY TO CORRECTLY ASSIMILATE WHAT IT NEEDS FROM THAT FOOD! If someone is trying to tell to do OMAD (one meal aday).. tell them to piss off- cause their blowing smoke!
Putting on muscle and dropping body fat takes time.. IT JUST DOES.. dont be impatient.. be consistant. If you're trying to drop 25, 35, 45 pounds.. your goal shouldnt be to dump that weight overnight or in a week or a month.. YOU DIDNT PUT IT ON IN A WEEK OR A MONTH.. so why would it be smart to dump it in a week or month? And your skin may not like the sudden drop of weight either.. like saggy/ wrinkles sort of thing. Putting on muscle will fill out some of the loose skin.
If some of these YT jackwagons would pull their heads out of their arss.. and educated themselves on diet and fitness for the over 40 crowd.. they'd have a pretty good number of ears..
Cant people over 40 get in screaming good physical shape? ABSOLUTELY.. but ya gotta want it. We should be healthy and physical fit well into our 80's folks!
I personally shoot for about 150 to 180 grams of quality whole complete protein per day meat protein!!!.. and at age 66 I'm finally putting on some muscle, but *it's taken 1 year to see results* ..and that's actually pretty fast, but I do some fairly extensive resistance training/weight lifting for my age and size. The most difficult part is loosing the viceral fat/sub q fat..and that's likely true for most women.
I am 36 yo and not particularly into being athletic or a "gym bro" but I had a N64 since like I was 10 or so and never realized this analogy! So I subbed just for that! A guy who has such an insight is surely a guy I can learn something from lol xD
That gag after saying "The intracellular signaling pathways are disgustingly confusing" 0:32 ... yeah, ok, take my LF&S. Now on to the rest of your video... lol
The comedy + information makes this guy gold content.
Before sports science and the internet
Bodybuilders had a debate
Half a gram of protein/1 gram of protein / 1 and half gram of protein per body weight
But all agreed the minimum was 2 grams per body weight for hypertrophy
Then out of nowhere people started talking about you lean body not overall body weight
People then started confusing the matter even more by say what are calorie levels
It was simple just go by body weight as had work for over 50 years
Nowadays you can't eat too much protein as it's bad for you you have to have a maximum of 60 g of protein a day, can't digest more than 20 g of protein per meal and so on
When I was training in my teens/early 20s I used to have minimum of 40 g protein per meal but my protein shakes I made had minimum of 60 g per drink
Dude... it sucks to be old you said. Well... if i look like you at your age. Thank you Lord motivation science aaaaand your workout. Especially the leg workout who almost made me faint in a full gym.
Thanks again for posting
The C-PAP machine! Lol I'm dead 😂
Dude, I cant remember the last time I laughed out loud while watching a youtube video. The N64 controller muscle memory teaching you how to flick a bean killed me.
I love how the more we learn the more we go around in circles.
Everything hes sayin makes a ton of sense to me even without all the micro details.
Used to simplify this to 5 meals, 3 large 3, 2 snacks.
3 large were protein dense of which the entire meal was 80-90% protein. Those three were brkfst, post wrkout, before bed. The sncks were inbetween the protein meals would include some minor sugar (usually drk choc) to spike insulin.
Casein protein was consumed as the before bed protein as it was thought to “burn slower” and keep you anabolic throughout the night allowing that breakfast the next morning to be similar in protein synth as the meal post workout.
Ryan, on the off chance that you read this; you are an amazing content creator and this video is perfect
Bro i am in tears every time i watch his videos!😂 Ryan is a fucking comedian
I forgot how hilarious you are 🤣😂
Thats the best way of giving information
I just subscribed yesterday and I'm loving this channel.
You need a total meal plan with these workouts and a stretching program would be nice too love all what you do and the workouts are amazing thank you.
he's got a workout plan u can buy, meal plans are overrated. Get your protein in, add carbs, fat and fiber to reach caloric goal for the day..... make it palatable by eating the things u like, as long as it's not garbage food...it's really that simple
@@MrLardobutt I been training ten years plus and I'm 18% body fat and 255 lbs meal plans are not overrated and unlike trying different ppls methods and none of this is simple or everyone would be in shape
5:34 sums it all up. But watch the whole thing so you understand why, and when you believe in what you're doing you're going to be more consistent. So watch it.. :)
5:09 prioritize 3 meals.
where has this man been my whole life. Instant subscribe
Bro, that summary in the end of the video was awesome! Try it again more often, it helps! :-)
First time watching pencil in hand, taking notes….actually, laughing my arse off.
Great job putting this together.
The analogies were on point 👍
First video I've seen of this guy. very informative & keeps it engaging
I have been following you for some time now. And you're videos on the right. Exercise for each muscle group is great. Could you or will you be putting together A video with a full body breakdown of each muscle exercise.
DUDE! The bukkake analogy was just spot on!
Fantastic video. I have only ever watched one video of yours before but this was really a good one. Exactly what I have preached the others before, but the aging part where you require more protein is super interesting
Ryan, thx!! Even as a experienced trainer I didn’t know this. I salute you 👍 Gr from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
