I believe red meat like ground beef produces better gains vs chicken or ground turkey?
interesting question
do I feel there is a difference? well, I do subscribe to and agree with Dorian Yates motto, ie red meat is more anabolic than others..
do I think it will play the same for everybody tho? nope
when you eat massive amounts of calories (and red meat) for extended periods of time, then yes perhaps one may be able to tell the difference more...
as for body comp:
depending on the grade of meat you are eating (ie, fat %), if you end up consuming more fat because of that venture and therefore tipping your fat % and overall intake enough, then yes it could very well play a part in testosterone production in the natural training athlete..cholesterol levels and overall fat intake certainly play a role in natural test production..
isn't that a function in and of itself tho?
I mean placebro is placebro - but if the mind is stronger than we think it is, and we have this placebo effect that we
believe is making a difference - who's to say that that cannot influence the outcome?
:dunno:
I've never really heard of anyone sticking to red meats only or heavily enough, for long enough, to be able to compare the two and how they affect overall gains.
you haven't followed me long enough
I used to eat mostly solely red meat for a long time, and it still is a fav of mine and majority of what I eat, but I also like to mix in portions of other meats (chicken/turkey/tuna/salmon etc) and eat simultaneously, like an equal portion of beef + _____ (fill in the blank) at each serving
