Massive Ripped
Pecs with Protein -
1
Ultimate Chest
Training
Welcome to week 3.
Besides knowing the best exercises for
ultimate chest training and how to
combine them in effective routines, there is
another important variable needed for
building massive, ripped pecs –
protein!
Since it’s the primary
building material of the human body, it only
makes sense that any form of intense super
chest training exercise will increase the
demand for protein.
How much Protein for Building Massive Ripped
Pecs?
How much protein needed
by humans is one of those issues that has
been hotly debated for decades. The debate
has intensified in recent years because of
the success of many popular high-protein
weight-loss diets. The current RDA
(Recommended Daily Allowance) for protein is
0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body
weight per day. Bodybuilders of course
ignore this and take far more for
ultimate chest training. The latest
research suggests that endurance athletes
should consume 1.2 to 1.4 grams of protein
per kilogram of body weight per day; while
strength and power athletes need to consume
between 1.4 and 1.8 grams per kilogram of
body weight per day. These values are still
below what most bodybuilding experts
recommend for building massive, ripped
pecs, which is about 1 gram per pound of
bodyweight.
The best sources of
protein
Protein is made up of
individual subunits called amino acids.
There are approximately 22 amino acids.
Those, which the body can manufacture are
called nonessential while those that must be
consumed in the diet are called essential.
With the exception of soy beans, most plant
sources are deficient in one or more amino
acids and are considered incomplete sources.
Animal sources on the other hand contain all
the amino acids and are considered complete
sources. To maximize your potential for
building massive, ripped pecs, you
should get most of your protein from red
meat, chicken, and fish. If you decide to go
vegetarian you’ll need to eat a wide variety
of plant sources to insure you are receiving
all 22 amino acids. This is an absolute must
for ultimate chest
training.
