havin trouble forcing food down :(

[Juicemonkey101]

Whoa, How was my comment so ignorant? I think it must of been misleading or something.... i didnt meant to offend anyone. All i was stating is that the list of foods monstercojones listed was not the heathiest of foods. I've read many of BUllfxs posts and i know that he prefers to eat clean but eat A LOT of it. Hope this somewhat clears things up.....

damn spell checkers ;p bigjim...

BMR = Basal Metabolic Rate aka Maintainence calories. 4500-5000 is well over your BMR, byt quite a bit actually. No wonder you cant take in that much food. If you really did take in 4500+ calories, most of that would be fat (yes, even with AAS),

How do you determine your BMR?

[meko13]

I'm in week one and my calories are at 3200. I'm 5'10 and 193lbs. This is what I take in a day and I hope that i keep increasing throughout the cycle.

Meal #1
12 Egg whites
3oz Oatmeal (dry measure then cook)
1c Skim Milk

Meal #2,#3,#4,#5
4oz Chick breast
4oz tuna
1c rice
1c Mixed veg

Meal #6
2 scope whey


My problem isn't puking but rather eating so much that my tummy is so full that it hurts to move. I hate that the most, the feeling that you are about to explode.

I use the The Harris-Benedict Equation for estimating my BMR

BMR = 66.5 + (13.75 x W) + (5.003 x H) - (6.775 x A)

Where:

W = actual weight in kilograms (1 kg = 2.2046 pounds)
H = height in centimeters (2.54 cm per inch)
A = age in years

Bull,

If you are determined you can take several spoonfulls of flaxseed oil, that should give you 1,000 calories of good fats.

Good Luck

[BullFX]

Yes, but you're leaving out the thermic food effect and activity factor, both of which obviously play a role in metbolism, heres the formula ...

Take your height in INCHES then convert it to CM(2.54 CMs per Inch), write that down. Then take your weight in LBS and convert it to KGs (divide your weight by 2.2)
Next go with the Harris-Benedict Formula:
66 + (13.7 X WT) + (5 X HT) - (6.8 X A) =
WT= Weight
HT = Height
A = Age
After plugging in that formula, circle that number. Next choose your activity factor:
Sedentary- ( little to no exercise) X .3
Moderate - (what most of us probably are) X .5
Heavy - (Extreme trainers, quite rare) X.75

-Take the number you circled multiply that by either .3, .5 or .75 depending on what your activity factor is. Like I said most of us are probably moderate, you guys who've been trainig for 5+ years pretty hard and combine cardio with weight training are more than likely Heavy, but be honest with yourself, this is for you, not your friends and people you wish to impress.

* Last step- Thermic food effect. Take your orginial BMR(the # you circled) add it to the new number(BMR + activity factor) and multiply that .10. Equation looks like this: (BMR + AF) X .10
***This Thermic food effect # must be ADDED to your BMR + Activity Factor!
*This final number if the total amount of calories you need to MAINTAIN YOUR CURRENT BODYWEIGHT!


I recommend all of you guys go here and download the BMR calculator tool my good friend Matthew D made for me for my bulking article. Its handy as hell and will configure your BMR for you within seconds after you plug the numbers in, because remember, after each pound you gain, your BMR changes slightly and I do human nutrition for a living and let me tell you, doing 50+ BMRs a day blows...
