Love everything about this
for what it’s worth. 
lol
that's valid, to this board your coach is a no name. Sounds like he's an untested local coach. I would probably do the same, cross-reference his advice, at least in the beginning.
100% more realistic. I'd say that's probably a good goal, and then reassess. I don't have the mass right now for either, but that's what I've seen some guys do - tackle physique first, then acquire more mass to have a shot at classic.
You should see the size of the Physique guy in my gym in Romania. These guys are huge nowadays.
Yes but there are a dozen reasons why it’s difficult to get significant excess calories from lean meat proteins. The calories spent digesting it, and the calories spent converting its excess into glucose - which can almost always be stored as glycogen rather than fat - etc. Also just difficult to eat many calories from these sources. Very filling. If lean then no fat and not very calorie dense.
I think this is true enough
you can get fat from overeating any calories.
I was thinking the same thing
Even the local US shows MP classes are stacked. If they had legs most would dominate classic at the local level
What people seem to forget by focusing on a single macronutrient is that the body doesn't just see them in isolation. Once you reach enough energy (calories) that your body demands it doesn't just look at how much protein you eat and only convert that to glycogen, it will still preferentially store the excess fat that you consume as adipose tissue.
We have a guy here in this new gym I’ve been in. Physique competitor and the size is insane for his 6ft frame and he’s peeled. He will absolutely confuse the average person into thinking he’s the biggest guy they’ve ever seen. Until you stand next to these guys you won’t appreciate how high the bar is being raised in that class.
Damn….what are his stats?
This is what I’m saying. Our guy is just like this freak lol. They exist and they’re popping up everywhere bigger and better
