really? you think? I would disagree. Maybe I am missing something... but i think all of the excess cardio would burn mostly "energy." I know the body uses muscle tissue for energy also, but at an almost insignificant rate as long as you have solid pre and post cardio nutrition.

What am I missing?

Don't worry I understand as an athlete what is needed. Lower the carbohydrates down a little bit (honestly 900 grams will just make you fat, lower it in the 700-800g per day). And one reason he may or may not be gaining weight is he is getting in the 1.5g per lb. of bodyweight in protein and stalled out on that...maybe one should increase protein intake (along with water intake) to make the gains.

**bigDman** · 01-20-2006, 11:49 PM

see the thing is i was eating around 6000 cals with 40% fat(well over 400 grams) and didnt make any gains

I always drink 1-2 gallons of water a day...

bigD, i am in shock that you still aren't packing on serious pounds. If I ate like that I would gain 10lbs (of fat) a week, no joke. Your metabolism is crazy

starman · 01-22-2006, 01:14 PM
