they work pretty good for me. i shoot for 100g to a little bit over 100g per meal so that's where those numbers come from. i picked up most of this stuff from a pretty good top tier coach a couple years back. his diet setup for the offseason was great for me but everything else not so much.

Really lean there brother, with some nice healthy carbs....I remember someone telling me that your body can only absorb like 23-30g protein per serving lol...so I did this for a while! I only stayed lean, didn't gain...I am going more your route now....

Also, I know you probably posted it but what's the body comp looking like? Weight, bf, etc?

TweetI like to start out saying OK come hell or high water I'm going to hit these kinds of rep ranges. Focus GC. Then I start repping. 20,21,22,23 (mm what will I be doing later today) 24,25,26 (damn that chic is kinda hot)27,28 29 Ok that's good. What Im trying to say in my mind wonders. I keep trying and have gotten better. Yet, every work out I find myself back to 8 to 12 reps.

i am probably sitting at right in between 10-12% maybe a little less cause my body is really weird with water retention. i have top 4 abs showing good and the outline of the wall is still there so i am happy. dont tell gc but i stepped on the scale yesterday at 282 dry. now lets backtrack that a bit because i spent the good part of 2wks eating nothing but fast food at least 2x a day and barely drinknig any water. so on the norm i usually hold about 10lbs of water and now prob 15ish. so i would guess i am in the lower 270s minus water. i rotate each week between low carbs ish to pretty freaking high carbs. no cardio atm but i will start that up as soon as my garage is unpacked and i can jump on the tread a few times a wk.

as for only processing x amount blah blah. i continue to gain more each year so it is working pretty well for me and food is the most anabolic substance out there so i like more not to mention i love to eat haha

i think it is most important to hammer these high reps for legs and back. i do drop down in the 8-12 range myself but the bad thing for me is i will say hey i can get the 120s for 10-12ish and end up being able to hit 15-20 haha. the burn sure is even more distracting isnt it gc

the best way i have found for me is when i am training with someone and i normally do is i always go last. if they hit 10 with their weight then i try to do 12 or more and so on. i always like to one up my partners. i have a hell of high pain tolerance also so it helps me be able to keep going when the burn is nasty brutal. i am a sucker for punishment i guess but i like it
