Well im not really asking for myself, im just asking because I thought it was a good question. I hear alot of talk about how its pointless to take in more than like 50-60 grams of protein in a sitting (which i think is horseshxt) so i was curious what people thought was too many calories in one sitting. For example Im sure most people wouldnt advise eating 3000 calories in one meal (this is exaggerated) but Im curious what most people this is too much

Ive heard a lot of different arguements on the protein consumption part. I'm not sure that anything higher than 50-60 p would be available/utilized. I'm sure it also makes a differenace what types of protein are being eaten during that sitting.

what do you think the calorie intake of a 160lb male that is a hard gainer should be that is trying to bulk up and gain weight?

I try to keep my meals under 600 calories...but I am no hard gainer, just the opposite actually.
If I were a hard gainer having trouble putting on weight, I would eat until I was stuffed at each of 5 meals. If I eat until I'm stuffed on GOOD foods that keep me at good macros, it usually ends up to be about 4000 calories a day (750 a meal). I put on weight like a madman when I eat like that (think 5 pounds a week).
Good luck! - 03-06-2009, 10:29 AM
some of the newer studies have shown that several smaller meals is not necessarily better than fewer larger meals.
it's the daily cal totals/macros that is most important. - 03-06-2009, 11:00 AM

Yea for my next bulk I've been thinking about going back to 3 large meals with better macros, just to see the results. I feel like eating ever 2-3 hours may put on more BF
