I guess that would make all those huge guys who embody the pinnacle of physique development–you know, guys like Dorian Yates, Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler, Arnold, and so on–were just dabbling with “theories” when getting huge and or in shape for a competition. I mean, when dieting for a show, they just eyeballed shit and didn’t bother with counting calories and macronutrients.
And for your information, moron, most people on here–actually nearly all–don’t have a health-related degree!
And yeah, degrees are stupid. I mean, formal academic training and education only gives peoples the knowledge, skill, and competence to be gainfully employed and successful in their respective fields.
With your wisdom, you should be putting sports nutritionists out of business! Instead of them receiving 75 to 300 bucks per hour and whatever other fees involved in their services, you can outdo them by charging pennies on the dollar or no fee to tell people to eat indiscriminately.
Maybe you can join the other geniuses that offer other awesome, thorough advice:
Eat more.
Eat a lot of …
Drink a lot of …
I hope that works great for this kid, who wants to accomplish the godly feat of packing on 25 pounds of LEAN mass while not having a clue of how to eat to do it.
And yeah, all those dietary prescriptions used by dietitians and nutritionists only work in theory. I mean, if you get a patient’s A1C level down, partially secondary to making the right food choices (and perhaps some medication and lifestyle adjustments), it’s all still working in THEORY! The improved lab value that came back was just a blunder, not due to appropriate exercise and nutrition protocols.
Same goes for carb-loading, carb-rotation, pre-contest diets, protein-sparing modified fasts, renal diets, low-gluten diets, low-sodium diets, and any other god-damn diet around!
I guess I shouldn’t fucking tell renal patients to count grams of protein, potassium, sodium, and phosphorous in their diets because, after all, such advice only works in theory. They should just continue to worsen their condition by making inappropriate food choices because nutrition therapy does shit, nothing, zilch.
And the education and training that gave me the competence to deal with these patients was all stupid education and training.
Moron!
Man. I don’t know who the fuck you are but you can suck my dick.
I’m glad I posted my remarks because it seems it served as an alley for you to express some deep philosophical ideas you had lingering in your head. So basically you just needed the right trigger to go on the defensive about what you do. But hey listen I don’t have a problem with what you do, in fact I think its great; in context. The scenario here is that you’ve got a 23 yo wanted to put on muscle.
Now I have no clue why you keep reiterating and complaining about the ‘25lb of muscle’ statement. Its not like this dude is a prize fighter needing to get to a specific weight to fight in a specific weight class. The 25 lb is a generalization of the amount of size he wants to attain. He just wants to put on mass (I guess lean mass) and put it on quickly (the ‘1 year’). I don’t think he needs a specific meal plan for that with all the macros. He ain’t entering any contest.
Again, dickhead, I have no problem with nutritionists. In fact I’ll probably be PMing people like you on this site for advice when I want to cut or etc etc.
Also a lot of dietitians are hot healthy women. I’m all for education.
