chicken vs steak

[Beast_19_301]

Which is a higher grade protein source chicken or steak? Are they both just the same.

That depends ........if you are looking at lean portions either way ....flank steak or ...chicken breast would be my best guess...everything being equal....that is ratio wise
I think there is no difference?

Pretty close, although chicken sure gets old after awhile.

Steak is a must for bulking

why Johnny B, not for protein you can get that from either chicken or tuna. I guess the steak is for in order to beef up you have to eat beef,steak, etc. right ?

Red meat has creatine in it and works better for bulking. I'm not saying for every meal, but 1 steak every day or 2 helps. Maybe I'm just old school that's why I think steak is a must for bulking, but it works for me

Excessive red meat is extemely hard on the old digestive tract....
I would prefer other sources of protien.....but I can,t pass up ona good steak ya know

Both are very good for a bodybuilders diet. Extra lean ground beef is also a good source of a red meat protein.

If it has loin or round in the name it's lean.

You should be rotating protein on a daily basis for best results.

Day 1: Fish protein
Day 2: chicken and beef
Day 3: Egg and whey

Thats just an example. Many different combo's to achieve great results. This also helps if you have a food allergy to a certain food, which most people don't know about.


But to answer your question both beef and chicken are about equal in terms of protein utilization.

Im eating a Sirloin right now....and a full flavored Coca Cola w/ baked potato loaded w/ cheddar cheese.

The practical effects on body composition between *COMPLETE whole-food proteins* are very minimal. Taste and the fact that allergies can be developed over time taking in the same protein are the main considerations for me.

Steak when bulking, chicken when cutting.
