i drink myofusion protein shakes (gaspari nutrition) in the day and syntha6 (eas) in the evenings.

i found the p90x nutrition guide to be very good and the formula for required calories is very close to right on for me.

for muscle gain it's important to keep your protein intake high, but not so high as to put stress on your kidneys, 1 gram per lean pound of body weight seems to be working for me, that translates to ~150 grams of protein daily. i split that into 25 g servings as that is about all i can process effectively at a time, so 25 grams every 2 hours or so.

is that the kind of info you were looking for?

good luck, it's a great program, imo.


appreciate the info
