ohhh man that style fairlife milk is like drinking half&half, I buy that once in awhile and feel so damn guilty drinking it (high fats) and swear it off for a few months, lol , but this is the only milk i will drink now, regular milk is so weird and gross,,

Yeah usually I just go for the 2% but I need some extra calories right now, especially after leg day today (and since the chicken is lean and the rice pudding is low fat) I subbed in some whole milk to bump the calories up a bit.

it is hard to go back to regular milk though. The macros of fairlife are just too good

View attachment 5586Post workout - ground beef, potatoes, mustard, ketchup (almost like a makeshift hamburger)

Then some random protein drink I’m trying

That random protein drink you are trying is fucking god damn delicious. Wish I could get them in bulk but they only have them at dollar generals and gas stations where I’m at.

Sunday meal prep day:

Lunches this week are 3 mini beef sliders (95% lean), some "baked then smashed" sweet potatoes, mixed veggies, and a mini naan to go with it.
Post-workout is more pan seared saffron chicken breast, white rice (not pictured), spinach (not pictured), and oats in fairlife milk (not pictured)

 

[Sector]

1lb ground chicken
2 cups of rice
Hot sauce

Probably won’t be able to finish it all in 1 meal, but we’ll do what we can

Damn thats two meals for me, lol ,

Probably will be for me as well. Just trying to smash as much (clean) food as possible lately, especially post workout

Been getting PRs like every lift and seemingly gaining a good bit of muscle as well. Feels good

Damn thats two meals for me, lol ,

same! I struggle to put down 1 cup of rice & 8oz of chicken post-workout. Couldn't imagine smashing a whole pound LOL.

Saw that protein drink in a store by me the other day and gave it a try since I saw it on @Sector ‘s post. Way better than I expected!

The strawberry is by far the best one. Vanilla is good but not as good. And I just don’t like chocolate protein, no matter what it is. I usually just use powder, but in a cut those shamrock ones and premier protein ones come in handy. Get all my protein with minimal calories.

Any tips for meals when traveling? Got an 8 hour flight coming up soon and usually when I fly I’ll buy protein drinks like muscle milk to hold me over but they bloat me to the max for a couple days and I hate having a stomach that extends as far as my chest

I do jerky and meal bars (not just protein-only bars, but the ones that have enough other macros too) for a balance of nutrients. Lately I bought a ton of RxBars on sale so have been smashing a couple of those and some jerky when in a pinch without access to a proper meal

Started mixing this in with my intra workout drink

1.5 scoops so 30g protein. I wouldn’t recommend this unless you mix it with a lot of water and flavored BCAAS/EAAs and it doesn’t mix well or taste the best, but when mixed with 1/2 gallon of water and flavored BCAAS and EAAs it’s actually decent, plus easy protein during the workout

So my current intra workout drink is:
15g flavored bcaas
16g flavored eaas
20g glutamine
30g protein from this isolate drink

I do a high carb meal of rice pudding and a fairlife protein shake before my workout to spike insulin then drink the above during my workout to shuttle it to the muscle

 

[Sector]

Then post workout today. More rice pudding to spike natural insulin profuction

Pork tenderloin slow cooked in a crockpot with bbq sauce

I just rewarded myself with a little caesars stuffed pretzel crust pizza after deadlifts and I'm gonna be full as fuck for benching tomorrow

Sunday meal prep day.

This week:
post-workout meals are ground turkey taco meat (big container in the back) with rice & tortillas.
lunches are slow cooked shredded chicken breast in broth with black lentils and quinoa (ran out of quinoa half way through so other half is just white rice)

 

[workout1234]

Post workout meal today:

Not pictured:
- shake at the gym with 1 scoop whey and 5g creatine
- 2 medjool dates when I got home to kick start sugar/carbs while I get the rest of the stuff out & warmed up

Pictured:
1 cup rice pudding with cinnamon added
1/2lb ground turkey taco meat with hot sauce
4 tortillas

Feels a bit light on carbs tbh and no veggies, might go eat some more rice or bread or something before heading to work
