Back after 10 years of ups and downs...
Well i've noticed my arms aren't really bulking anymore now, I've increased both reps and weight to no effect over past month and half - thats benching, curls, offset curls, fly's. I'm not overworking them, they have a 2/3 days recovery generally between workouts.
I don't use whey proteins or any powders/shakes, but I do eat a lot of natural proteins (salmon/haddock/cod/chicken - about 60-70g worth a day - GDA is 55g for a man).
Anyone who builds muscle, how much protein do you consume? If i'm in excess of a GDA it must be going some way into helping. But I did wonder if its not all being absorbed if i'm consuming too much of it in one sitting, I did read in a body sculpting book, only 12g is absorbed by the stomach in a single sitting, which I found a bit shocking and hard to believe.
I don't wanna go down the route of anabolics, I'd rather do it the natural and hard way.
