Make incomplete proteins complete?

[domeyeahaight]

Tried to post on this earlier but the intranet was bein ghey..

arnold says in the encyclopedia you can add a small amount of complete protein to a larger amount of incomplete in order to make that incomplete protein usable...

so if i cook up a big ass pot of beans and just throw in a pound of beef or some tuna or some eggs or whatever or a scoop or two of whey this would be all good right ?? ? ? ? right ?

Yes

Boil 1 big ass pound of tuna then throw in 1 pound of whey and then 1 pound of whatever..........voila, complete protein.

I think with beans you could just throw some bread in that big pot and it would complete the deal !!

Just curious Phil, In your experience how important do you think it is to always eat a complete proteins to gain and grow muscle on a meal to meal basis? do you still advocate using LBA's between meals?

I guy I work with was talking about this a few days ago , he is planning to use one servng each of Egg protien , Whey , and Beef protien isolate from tureprotein.com to make his shakes.

His thouhgts are that he will get better results from the three differant type of protein (I assume he is thinking along the complete protein lines) , he uses 4 shakes a day with 3 meals so alot of his protein comes from shakes. It sounds like a legitimate idea I guess , not sure how its gonna taste.

He claims that this is the only thing he will have changed for 4 solid weeks and he is going to try it for 4 weeks and see if their is any marked differance in power or size

What do you think , craze waste of time?

I didnt do a blend of proteins but i did add protein shakes to each meal and the difference in that alone is well worth it.

Really , did you just eat less protien in food and make up for it with the shake or were you just adding the shake as extra.

I guess thats why some guy take the LBA's with their meal

For me personally the verdict is still out,

Whole food protein sources over shakes over liquid aminos, tried them all, and frankly the only time i ever noticed a massive difference was taking aminos pre workout, so I still do that, post workout I prefer a shake because they are lighter on the stomach, before my latest injury I was trying whole food post workout, didn't really give it a long enough run to notice any difference.

Anyone got any studies or experience to prove that multiple protein sources is better than say whey or chicken alone etc?

I believe just acknowledging the fact that you will get a larger range of amino acids would be good enough to say multiple protein sources would be beneficial. Adding a small whey shake at each whole meal in the offseason would also be a good way to get a larger amount of leucine which would be beneficial to being anabolic.

Why make it more complicated then it has to be? As long as your total protein requirments are being made each day, it should not matter. Your body breaks down protein in amino acids which are stored in reservior (amino acid pool) when your body needs the amino acids to rebuild it takes it from this reservior.
Too keep nitrogen retention high, eat a balance of the marconutrients and protien every few hours. Bam, easy as that.

And for you whey haters, its a food. Its produced from milk which classifies it as a complete aminal source protein. Its one of the riches protein sources of bcaa and glutamine. You can build muscle just fine on whey alone. All the shilling going on with this protein versus that protein is getting ridiculous.

I like your sarcasm.

I am all about mixing up the proteins and with sites like True protein, I get to play mad scientist :de:il-smieverytime i order. my recent order was this:
Custom Mix + FORMULA
Soy Protein Isolate non-GMO 5%
Hemp Protein Powder 5%
Beef Protein Isolate 10%
Whey Protein Isolate (CFM) Cross-Flow Microfiltration 5%
Complete Milk Dairy Isolate 5%
Whey Protein Isolate Cold-Filtration 5%
Whey Protein Isolate Microfiltrated 5%
Gemma Pea Protein Isolate non-GMO 5%
Whey Protein Isolate Ultra-Filtration 5%
Egg White Protein 5%
Hydrolyzed Casein 5%
Hydrolyzed Whey Isolate Ultra Grade 10%
PeptoPro (Hydrolyzed Caseinate) 5%
Whey Protein Isolate Ion-Exchange 5%
Betaine HCL by the Pound (1 lb.) 5%
Glycerol Mono Stearate by the Pound 5%
Acetyl L-Carnitine by the Pound (1 lb.) 5%
Medium Chain Triglyceride Powder (MCT) 5%
+ Premium Dutch Chocolate Fudge $0.75/lb
+ Stevia (All-Natural Sweetener) /lb
+ Protease Enzyme Complex $0.7/lb
+ Plastic Jug w/ Free Scoop $0.75/lb

I know, I know, some of it may seem redundant, but some items will hit the system at different rates as well, lengthening the time that protein is being released into my system.
Also, I always use protease Enzymes becuase they make the process of digestion simpler and more complete IMO.
I do not make it a habit of eating lots of shakes. I prefer whole foods, but after a workout I want the protein to hit quickly, and this is the best route.
