Hey guys, so I know this is the anabolic section however I wanted everyone’s input on diet and how to keep progressing with muscle gains without becoming a mess.. back when I competed and had a contest prep diet. When all was said and done with the shows and we transitioned into offseason, it was basically my contest prep diet except slightly upping portions of carbohydrates so it was slow quality gains with minimal fat gain. For example 10 egg whites 1/2 (half) cup oats dry was now the same 10 egg white with 1 cup dry.. 8oz chicken Breast with 1.5 cups green veggies was now the same 8oz chicken with a 6 oz potato.. at first o had been a little disappointed because this coach in the past had a lot more food added in the offseason like 2 cups of rice per meal.. but he said there is no reason to add so much excess calories because you don’t build any muscle faster just water and fat.. any input guys?
