  • I don't mind a bit of sugar, I mean a banana is yummy sugar in a skin. Nkd bars dont have much protein though for the calories. I need 115 grams at 1400 calories (non cycling days)

    Happy weekend btw ;)

  • The 115 is 0.8 kg per lbs bodymass (more I think is a waste for me, long training age is slow muscle gain) as I'm cutting it's the minimum I set to try to avoid muscle loss.

    Some people think just 0.5 gram / per lbs is fine too especially when not limiting calories. It's hard to say as muscle synthesis is hard to measure.

    In practice I get more on training days as those are also cycle days (330 Cal's more) and a bit less in the weekend.

    A scoop of whey after training with carbs / low fat chocolate milk as extra after any form of training for recovery is always a good idea.
