How many times per day you eat?)

ad

Interesting to know, how many times you guys eat every day?
Many years I try to eat every day 6 times (full meal), I eat when I do not want to eat but eat bcuz “I must”.. Now about 2-3 last years when I have a son, I every day 5 times and feel perfectly, before each food I want to eat, I’m hungry.
I think i even have some + few lb bcuz I start eat 5 times.. 100% understood “more do not mean better”, if seriously I can’t understand how peoples eat 7-8 times per day (I talk about full meal)

For me I’ve found that 6 meals of around 600 or so calories each works best. With a few shakes in between. One shake for sure before bed most nights with the shake at least being a casein blend of some kind. Sometimes if I wake up in the middle of the night and can’t go back to sleep I’ll have a small mini shake. For me I like to try and have a constant amount of protein going on so that’s why I like doing more lower calories meals as opposed to 3 or so massive calorie meals. After all our bodies can only utilize so many calories and so much protein at a time.

I was always a very hard gainer growing up but it’s gotten much easier the last 8 years or so.

I've always been a hard gainer too - 145lb's for me was a massive achievement natty Lol But its amazing how much we benefit from gear isn't it, it's like you've grown into a completely different body overnight.

I was 145lb's in 19-20 years before I go to gym...))))

You’re right we can benefit greatly from gear but we should all always focus on diet. For the physical appearance of course but more importantly for our overall health. I’ve seen many guys completely neglect their diet when on gear and every time they always end up saying “damn I wish would’ve focused on my diet more”.

4 or 5 times or my gut sticks out too much & I cant do a vacumn pose!

6 times + few shakes)

Same here. Just seems to work out perfectly for my frame and build and genetics. As a little “bonus” I’ll add some peanut butter powder into my oatmeal for a little added protein.

Currently I do 3 clean big meals ( at least 1200 calories each) with 2 meal replacement shakes. (700 each) and will make sure I finish a gallon of whole milk by the end of the day.
(Sometimes I’ll only get 3/4 a gallon)

I depend on alot of liquid because my appetite isn’t great and It’s easy calories mixed with my crazy work schedule.

A gallon of whole milk a day trumps any
Weight Gainer imo.
Just got to increase the fiber to avoid constipation.

Have you done it too Sam?

Oh Wow So you are on the GOMAD diet also then? I'm kinda attempting it in such that I'm trying to drink as much whole milk on top of what I already consume - & I must admit its working bloody brilliantly to say I'm only doing in about 3 pints a day! I just cannot figure where the weight is going though Lol It just seems to be a general mixture of muscle, fat and skin where you just appear bigger but not fatter doesn't it! Seriously though, 1 Gallon per day on top of 2 big shakes is impressive mate Smile

Don't forget to carry a jar of peanut butter around with you & take table spoons of it all day long! Works good if you have a really fast metabolism.

Forgot to mention, my farts are fucking devastating.

I eat 6 meals a day and eat snacks; cheese sticks, peanuts and yogurt. I’m eating something every hour. I was at the movies tonight with three cheese sticks. Next week, I’ll be switching to all chicken and rice meals - pray for me.

You guys BEASTS who can eat full meal every 2 hours)))
I would die in 10 days after that

Cochise's picture

“Graze heavy” every two hours or less..
Trimming down I eat 3 and “graze lite” 3-4 times

Only problem I have with eating heavy every two hours is I
Wake up couple times a night and have to hit the fridge

5 full meals and post workout shake of whey protein and dextrose within 10 minutes of my last set

Same here. Shakes of course i do not calculate.

All out bulk? Every two hours. It really simplifies your timing. The longer you’re awake the more meals you gotta eat.

4 medium sized meals and I‘ll graze on peanutbutter on a rice cake, home made chicken bites, rice pudding, stuff like that around 3/4 times depending on my schedule.

The problem I find eating as regularly as this is, if I miss a couple of meals due to external factors I feel light headed like a hypo. I’ve had a lad who worked for me who used to skip breakfast, graft a full day and eat when he was home at after 6. I wouldn’t last very long if I was to miss my first few meals/snacks of the day.

Only 4 at the most - Just don't have the appetite for it like most do. Shi**y ectomorph hunger lol

BESTGEAR.WS's picture

Bro, do you try to add some enzymes?

press1's picture

I've tried GHRP 6 but I don't think it was a great version as it felt more like an upturned stomach than a ravenous hunger that most people speak of - I think you really have to know which lab produce good versions of it.
