[QUOTE="Kerr1992, post: 755722, member: 133281"] Too much concentration on protein and not enough carbs. Carbs are key to muscle building which is why the 50/30/20 program is popular. Also you need to calculate your required calorie maintenance which is the calories you need to maintain your weight. So many people just stick to what they are told an average person needs which might be wrong for you. For example I need 3400 cals per day maintenance when an average male apparently should stick to 2000. Cardio such as cycling has a negative impact on muscle growth which is why bodybuilders and powerlifters avoid it while bulking and do minimal amounts when cutting. [/QUOTE]
