    It sounds like you are choosing between two gimmicks. I would spend some time learning about proper nutrition and hypertrophy and do it yourself...you will save a lot of money and disappointment. I fell into the crossfit money trap for a few months because i thought it would give me an invincible metabolism but boy was i wrong. i went back to my trainer and a bodybuilding split with cardio and proper diet and the results have been amazing.

    Has anyone ever had? I saw it at a BB show yesterday, has good macros (minimal carbs/fat) but no samples...cheaper than Olympian labs. Any reviews? I can't stand rice protein its too gritty, i love the olymian labs, it blends into oats, cous cous, nut butters very well. was never a fan of vega. Thanks

    not qualified to say (not a doctor) but i really doubt its a malabsorption issue, you are a relatively young man eating 2000 calories a day and youre active and youre 5'11.... i am 5'4 and 120 lbs female and my weight is staying steady at 1600 cals one day 1900 the next day and you have 7 inches on me and male hormones. i think you need to start measuring your food find out your maintenance and slowly increase. how do u feel about nut butters? why arent you deadlifting? its the ultimate mass builder!! also, i suggest splitting your routine and separating shoulers from legs - too big muscle groups, especially legs and they need their own day. legs are like half your body...i think you are blessed that u dont have to worry about cardio and i am always jealous of ppl who cant eat enough. i am always hungry and want to eat more but i need to be careful. nut butters will add calories and fat which helps keep healthy testosterone levels so u really cant go wrong with that. i would stay away from processed sugar it will just go to the love handles. if you want to body recomp focus on whole foods complex carbs protein and fats. the harder u push in the gym - HEAVY COMPOUND MOVEMENTS TO FAILURE - the more likely the surplus nutrients will go to muscle and not fat. dont hold back at the gym bc you are worried about burning extra calories, fuel your body.
