pork rinds too good to be true? - Page 2

interesting article in men's health, but all things being equal i would bet on saki being right and men's health being FOS (or at least misleading) ;o i mean the pork rind company must have been required to put the disclaimer because the 10g protein was deceiving in some way

LOL @ byrnesam

The body has a hard time breaking down collagen and using it as a protein source so even though it contains 10g proteins your body wont break it down and use it makes sense, thanks. if i eat LOTS of pork rinds everyday will my body become more efficient at breaking down collagen and using it as a protein source?

Not really no sorry I would look for other sources of protein.

eww americans

cook islands plz

lol pork rinds are healthy...

might as well buy 10 $1 cheese burgers from mcdonalds take off the buns and sauce and eat the patties and call it a healthy source of protein ;(

Pork rinds are the best snack. It sucks when they go stale, so you have to eat like the whole bag in one sitting. From a health and fitness standpoint, there is a lot of fat in there and it will slow you down a lot. Post workout? who cares eat that shit. When I took exercising seriously, I would eat that shit once a week or two weeks.
pre workout - grapes, no orange juice shit slows you down
post workout - protein, ok oj

Anyone know if soy protein is any good? I used to eat Cliff protein bars all the time, and all are made from soy. But I heard that soy makes your estrogen levels go up. Also soy is probably GMO too.

Protein and fats are good to you, dunno why people still believe pork is bad. Stay away from sugar and maple syrup and you will start losing weight pretty fast.

Avoid soy protein its shit. Soy has an active component (cant remember name) that stops your body from digesting protein by destroying your stomach peptides. So u end up paying for expensive dumps

Sup gotunk. If I recall correctly pork and chicken have the least amount of protein when compared to other meats, plus pork is fatty.

This thread is a trip.

I'm eating Tuna while reading this, and that makes me feel pretty awesome.

I can't eat sugar, so gaining weight is nearly impossible.

Last week I tried putting 8 eggs in the mixer, cook up3dl of pasta, filled the pan with chicken, then removed that, and filled it with mushrooms, then mixed it all in a big bowl, and i ate till I almost puked, and each time I felt there was room for more, I kept stuffing throughout the rest of the day.

I've also tried eating x3 as much calories which is recommended daily for a month, that didn't work either.

I train weights 4 times a week, I don't gain any weight, "It simply doesn't move" LOL, ok bad one I guess hehe.

Let's see if anyone here got some suggestions. I'll try anything that won't kill me, Sugar, half the molecyle or how you spell it makes me very sick. GOGOGO (so no fructose, or varitions of sugar, there are at least 40 types or so, like all the tol, mannitol, xyltol, sorbitol, so forth, all that shit is a no go).

HEHE

Ps, now I have to take some drug test, an older guy reported me for steroids, which is AWESOME. Since I don't gain muscles, they just seem to get stronger and stronger, so got chopsticks, but I don't care, I lift the shit out of those weights. (Some guy thinking he was strong was all nice and helpful when I lifted, and he thought I was doing my max rep, and he had jsut taken record, bragged to some mates, and he was giving me pointers, but I was just doing warmups, HEHE, PWNED lol).

Oj, that was a lot of text, sry <3

I really don't know much about bulking up but, if you take in more calories than you use....
I'm assuming you're doing 5 sets and 5 reps?

Some pointers I picked up along the way, don't drink acidic juices like OJ or grapefruit juice before workouts.
Eat berries before workouts, and no meat (meat slows you down and makes you lethargic).
After workouts pack in around 25g+ of protein.

I'm pretty happy with my workout regimen. Shows great results and I can hit the heavybag non-stop for 6-3 minute rounds with 30 second breaks in between.
I follow a 4 set 15-40 rep workout for muscle endurance. RIP'd. But I also run 5 miles MWF before my workouts.

marius, have you tried drinking whole milk? i know milk has some sugar in it so not sure how strict you have to be on that.

Don't eat that shit fucking junk whore you'll become a zombie fucking drooling fag

uhhh pork fat is the shit.

Hey Thanks, I train Deadlift, free weights, heavy shit first, and after my warmup I go as heavy as I can, and few reps, the last half of the workout I do more reps, to get burn and make sure I have nothing more to give.

I can't drink acid juices since I'm allergic to half the sugar molecyle, so no fructose, that's a no no, so no fruit juices or anything like that. I get sick pain just from eating blueberries, so no berries plx, in small dozes I can take Strawberries so I do that yay.

I have some white powder I got told by a nutrition doctor which is "energy powder" with mostly carbohydrates, I mix it in water, I take that right before I work out, and i sip it during my work outs, just to try and be awesome. I also stuff on protein's after I worked out, usually it's chicken.

Hey Thanks!

Not sure what's up with that sugar either, I got it explained a few times from my doctor's, but I didn't get it.

But yes, I can drink milk, that month I tried to stuff as much calories as possible, I was chugging fat milk, and cream like milk nonstop, but didn't seem to work.

A lot of people have told me, said, and linked me to articles on "bad" things that happens with milk, so last 2 months I've tried to cut it out of my diet, just for fun, and see what happens.
