Hi all! I'm new to the club and have a diet related question. I am on a weight gain (currently 69"/160 lbs.)and lifting 5 days a week to build mass, so, Protein is the main course, but I am so tired of eating CHICKEN! Baked, broiled, grilled in many different flavors, but it's getting old. Any recommendations? I read tuna fish is a good one but you shouldn't eat too much. Are the protein shakes worthy? Can I get the goods at Walmart or do I have to pay the cost of GNC?
Much obliged.

tuna is fine to eat also beef is great. The wally world protein is pricey for the quality. Try dps nutrtion.

Thanks hoss! I can add some variety to the meals if beef and tuna are OK. I'll check DPS Nutrition too.

Get some eggs (buy the case) and cottage cheese...great with fresh fruits this time of year.
I agree with mmaibohm about the protein at WM. get a good quality.

I am a short, medium built 21 year old female. I have a really hard time losing weight (5'3", 135) and decided to just build muscle instead. I had a lot of success starting my day with whey protein. Then I just made sure to get beans, eggs, any meats, fish, clams, beef, turkey... I think you will have success also. Good luck to you.
