I was 33.6 stone overweight until one day I had enough. I started to watch your videos and started to believe in myself thanks you your video. You explain everything out on what you need to build muscle, how much protein you have to eat and carbs. I am now 61 years old I am now 100kg half the man I was, and my diabetes is in remission thank God. I built a gym at home got all the equipment I need, and I go out at 04:00AM every morning no matter what the weather. I am an ex Royal Marine Commando retired have PTSD and the training helps with my PTSD. Thank you for your videos and for explaining everything out simple and by the way I do eat nothing, but high protein red meat white meat with rice and potatoes. I am sorry I do not take protein drinks as my doctors has advise me against these supplements. I do take vitamins iron, Magnesium Glycinate 1200. I also take L-Arginine Amino Acid, multi vitamins, vit D3 20,000 units a week plus I also take an extra of Omega fish oil, vit B Complex. Losing so much weight actually has brought me back to the ideal weigh when I was in the R.M.C and now I feel a lot more alive in great condition for a man of managed 61. Thank you so much for posting these videos and giving us men the opportunity to be a lot more positive and a healthy living with confidence and motivation every day.
I’ve been using cottage cheese also, esp in the evenings with some honey and or cinnamon in it. The casein protein makes me feel satiated and it’s only 80 calories per 113g with 13g of protein.
I had 1lb of Ground Turkey, 1cup of Rice, and 1 cup of Red Kidney Beans for lunch today. About 72 Grams of Protein just from the Turkey! I'm 6'7" trying to build Muscle Mass (59 years old.) Thanks for the great videos
I love having 6-8 eggs scrabbled with Canadian bacon or ground beef or steak that I have left over from the night before. This is so quick and easy to make. And the eggs give you carbs.
Mark, mate, I’m from Scotland and can’t believe I’m going to have to teach someone from Texas about a cold drink 😂 that protein shake needs to start life in a blender with lots of Ice! What I try and do is keep the powder I’ll use for the day, in tubs in the fridge. Take it out, mix it with nice ice cold milk, plenty of Ice, blend it, and you get the most amazing cold protein shake. Keep up the good work, mate, only discovered your channel a few weeks ago and love it!
I add vanilla ice cream protein powder to my plain Greek yogurt and some cocoa powder for a chocolate dessert. I eat beef sticks for a mid-afternoon snack or a clean lunch meat wrapped around a cheese stick.
Yes, carbohydrates play a significant role in protein synthesis and overall muscle recovery. Here’s how they contribute: ### 1. **Energy Source** - **Fuel for Workouts:** Carbohydrates are the primary energy source during high-intensity exercise. Sufficient glycogen stores allow you to train harder, leading to better muscle adaptation and growth. ### 2. **Insulin Response** - **Insulin Secretion:** Consuming carbohydrates stimulates insulin release. Insulin is an anabolic hormone that helps transport amino acids into muscle cells, facilitating protein synthesis. ### 3. **Sparing Protein** - **Preserving Muscle:** Adequate carbohydrate intake can help spare protein from being used as an energy source. This allows more amino acids to be available for muscle repair and growth. ### 4. **Glycogen Restoration** - **Recovery:** After exercise, replenishing glycogen stores with carbohydrates is essential for recovery. This helps prepare your muscles for future workouts, promoting ongoing protein synthesis. ### 5. **Hormonal Balance** - **Supporting Hormones:** Carbohydrates can help maintain optimal hormonal levels, including those that promote muscle growth and recovery. ### Conclusion While protein is crucial for muscle repair and growth, carbohydrates are equally important for providing the energy needed for workouts and supporting the physiological processes involved in protein synthesis. A balanced intake of both macronutrients is vital for optimal muscle health and performance.
That's tough for Type 2 diabetics like myself where the carbs contribute to keeping your glucose levels high. I choose my carbs carefully. I've lost weight and body fat by reducing carbs.
@@ktcarl True! But you can't tell these carb advocates that! Our bodies can use fats for fuel no need for carbs except a few time a week.......starches shouldn't be combined with meat pr protein as they digest in different mediums, acid for protein and alkaline for carbs, causes bloating and gas
@@photo80sjeff84if low, test from a PCP or family Dr is great to help men sleep better, have energy and improves things downtown, especially over 40-50.
Creatine. Sugar/dextrose. Any carbs really, oatmeal, whatever. You'll be burning it. Slice of bread with butter, jam, and sprinkle some dextrose on top.
I have a 50 g protein shake and a small banana when I leave the gym. When I finish my shower I have lean sirloin and protein spaghetti, a delicious way to start the day
I’ve done everything the experts have told me. Eating the right foods and lifting every day and the only thing growing is my gut. I have to come to the sad reality that I have the worst genetics on the planet.
Whey protein does NOT need carbs - In evidence-based studies ~ has been shown to spike insulin like crazy - Some of the stuff this guy is saying is a bit antiquated and partly semi-debunked in recent peer-reviewed human studies regarding bodybuilding.
@napendaadventure I use eggs for omelettes etc. I put organic hemp powder in a glass with home distilled clean water n mix and I have that twice a day. Its processed by the body fast and has all the aminos the body needs and more. Meat reduces the bodies ability to build muscle because its very dense second teir protein.
@napendaadventure you can try it if you want but the taste won't be very good. I prefer mixing with water and fast drink it up ie knock it back. I'm used to the taste now.
This is bull. Unless someone is training for bodybuilding, these kinds of protein intakes are dangerous. If the body doesn’t use it, it becomes fat. Oh and there aren’t better sources of protein over others. Protein is protein. Beans, tofu, lentils, nuts, peanuts, etc. You are recommending processed food sources? My god. That’s not clean. Who is this guy?
Good information, but I would add: 1. Most whey protein powders contain Sucralose - aka poison for your gut. Isopure stands out as one of the best that doesn't. 2. Most greek yogurts are high in sugar or artificial sweeteners. The best option is unsweetened plain greek yogurt at Costco - just add a few drops of their pure vanilla and a tablespoon of honey and you're good to go. Wayyyy healthier! 3. Tuna contains mercury and can really cause inflamation. Great protein source but avoid eating it more than once a week or twice a month. Salmon (not farm raised) is a much better option.

Very good explaining. Thank you very much and best wishes from Ansbach Germany 💖 🎸 Sammy
Hey Mark. Have you or anyone else associated with 'Live Anabolic' ever taken steroids or growth hormones of any kind?

Post workout:
4 eggs, 4oz beef, protein shake with milk:
Total: 77 grams protein
How do you choke down 4 eggs?
@@anthonyrude I would guess by frying, scrambling, poaching or boiling. Never raw....yuck!!!!
@ktcarl I like hard boiled but there are not easy to eat more than 1 like that.
I don't cook.
You coming over to make eggs?
I love having 6-8 eggs scrabbled with Canadian bacon or ground beef or steak that I have left over from the night before. This is so quick and easy to make. And the eggs give you carbs.
@@zwiftrogue3938 Eggs give you carbs?! There is only 0.98g carbs in 1 large egg.

Why does it have to be cold?
Thank you from this here Yorkshire man in the UK
Drive-thru smoothie places mean sometimes 50g of sugar, but good tips, keep up the great work!
I really admire this guy…
I add vanilla ice cream protein powder to my plain Greek yogurt and some cocoa powder for a chocolate dessert. I eat beef sticks for a mid-afternoon snack or a clean lunch meat wrapped around a cheese stick.
Do I need to add “Mobil 1” to my diet too?
Of course, it keeps your joints lubricated and your system clean.
Keeps you from polluting the air too

I’m interstate truck driver that’s hard for me to take ideal protein intake
Excellent!
Like this guy. He has the physique to back up his words.
smooth not that lean
How to build your shoulder
Great videos, what are your thoughts on Testosterone replacement therapy?
Trt, side effects, hard wood, hair loss, less sleep, muscles. The End....Try 💯 not to go on it if you don't have to
@@photo80sjeff84if low, test from a PCP or family Dr is great to help men sleep better, have energy and improves things downtown, especially over 40-50.
So what's good before workout
Fulvic avid. Hemp powder and eggs.
Creatine. Sugar/dextrose. Any carbs really, oatmeal, whatever. You'll be burning it. Slice of bread with butter, jam, and sprinkle some dextrose on top.
President Bush looking good!
Protein shake and eggs with lentil beans or cottage cheese. I work out very early in the morning, so breakfast is my high protein meal.
President Bush been hitting those weights.
Jacked up George!
The same old joke in every vid of this channel. **YAAAAAWN**
Like him a lot better ✊
Bahahahhaha!!!!
He's a far better man than Georgie
I eat about 10 eggs per day as well. It's a great course of protein and nutrients.
Ain't it harmful? I'd do it too but I'm afraid.
Noticed Mobile 1 for your joint health. Pretty odd for a kitchen counter.
Dang I thought I was a car guy but mobile in the kitchen? Dang Mark is really a car guy.
What do you use the Mobile 1 for?
He lifts it. Resistance training, to hit those muscles real good.
Raw egg smoothie anyone? 😁
I have a 50 g protein shake and a small banana when I leave the gym. When I finish my shower I have lean sirloin and protein spaghetti, a delicious way to start the day
I’ve done everything the experts have told me. Eating the right foods and lifting every day and the only thing growing is my gut. I have to come to the sad reality that I have the worst genetics on the planet.
Whar else are you eating & what type of workouts are you doing?
Always mix katchava with whole milk
Light means they took away fat not sugar.
Mate the juice really helps with bodybuilding
I have tried these protein shakes. to me it’s like eating refried beans. and I’m Lactose. to much fun. don’t need extra gas. :-)
Salmon and eggs
You don’t need that many carbs unless you’re really pounding the weights.
18% BODY FAT WITH A MUSCLE SHIRT ON IS GOOD 😎
The protein powder and bars have no clean ingredients 👎 Engine oil on the kitchen counter ? 🤔
Good list, BUTT (pun intended), I would never eat any of them off your counter. :)
Protein and Testosterone is what you need. No testosterone no muscles 💪.
Whole foods first and foremost and whey power as a top up. Forget protein bars when chicken slices do a much better job and it’s real food.
2:32...only a man's man would have cases of motor oil on his kitchen counter.
😂😂
Wo😍🔥ww handsome n cute to😍😎👍👍

I’ll try the Greek yogurt, but everything else is foolishness.
I like plain greek yogurt on a baked potato.
Sour cream , a bit of dill. With boiled/steamed potatoes. And butter.
1 gram of protein to 1 pound of body weight.
And throw in the Fat as well as Protein..
This guy sounds and looks like (a buffed version) of ex-president Bush….no?
I put on 13kg of muscle in one year. I use pasture raised eggs and hemp powder. No meat as we are not meat eaters we are frugavoures naturally.
Can you mix hemp powder to eggs you want to fry?

@@geo_neo9 Taste is not a problem for me. I saute potatoes with moringa powder and other spices. Bell, peppers, red onion, parsley and so on 😋
@@napendaadventure cool, enjoy your results 😎
Protein bars?!? What a load of crap. That's just processed candy junk. Eat ground beef and eggs.

All protein the same?? Tofu is not the same as animal protein, not even close, lol
Bioavailability. Eggs are best, rice and beans not so much.
