I'm just trying to give the guy the right recommendations. There is no evidence that exercising makes it OK to eat more than your recommended amount of sodium. It's not impossible. I eat nearly twice the calories most people eat and sometimes my sodium is as low as 1300 mg for the day
Have you actually read the whole thing?I can find articles on the internet that say electric clothes dryers are killing us too. That doesn't amount to scientific research.
Big Macs work great.
Chicken and broccoli will make you fat if you eat enough of it.
Well that's true... but...
Are you saying big macs and any big burger from maccass is a good way to bulk up?? not the whole diet but maybe 1 every day or 2? What about the trans fats?? and salt!
I'm just thinking back to supersize me... but i guess that guy also had the chips, milkshakes and coke to go with the burgers.
I just think its an unhealthy way to bulk up and you would gain more fat than you wanted relative to muslce? what do you think?
In the words of Coach Ethan Reeves, "Find a way to win, I dont want an excuse for losing." In talking with a pal on the forum who is working some thin athletes looking to pack on pounds he told them to eat more. They asked, "So more chicken and vegetables?" His reply, "No go to McDonalds, eat some pizza, ice cream, etc."
This is all relevant to your activity level of course. Point is, if you cannot gain weight, revert to extreme measures. Trans fat is mainly in the fries, or something deep fried. Therefore a Big Mac would not be a threat for TF.
EXACTLY. I don't see why to tell someone who is super thin, struggling to gain weight to "make sure to eat lean meats, red meat 3x a week, with veggies at every meal!"
Go to Mcdonalds and eat. Once you start gaining weight, you can cut back on the junk.
What can junk food do that healthier options cant?
Be cheaper, easily accessable, more calorically dense, require less preparation, and taste great.
