Hamburger

[sifubmf]

I was curious if anybody could tell me how good hamburger is compared to chicken?

I am currently on a cutter diet and get my carbs in first thing in the morning and PWO. I basically only get my protein from tuna, chicken, and egg whites. Will lean hamburger be worse than these for a cutter diet?

Will the fat from 95% lean hamburger be a problem to eat throughout the day? How comparable is it to chicken? Would actual steak be better, if so why? If anybody has input on this that would be great!

Hamburgers are supprisingly not bad for you when your active.. I usually only eat hamburgers if I had a tough football practice or something like that.. I wouldnt get carried away with the hamburgers

absolutely nothing wrong with lean hamburger. you need saturated fat in your diet.

the amino acid profile of beef is actually better than chickens, not that it makes much difference.

95/5 lean beef and trimmed pork IMO are very often neglected in BB

I eat a good bit of lean beef when cutting or bulking. Normally at least 1-2 meals a day.

I think youre doing yourself a disservice if you bodybuild and dont eat at least 8oz of red meat a day. Also, dont waste your money on xtra lean burger. just buy the regular 80/20 and rinse it with very hot water after you drain the grease and then pat it with paper towel. That process alone gets the fat content down to about 5g per serving.
