[@Aziz-fk4qb]

I've been training for like a year I learned that you need like a lot of money that will go on healthy food if you want good gains , as a student I'm straggling at this.

[@JustMerkChannel]

There are definitely cheaper ways to do it. That’s how I started myself, I only spend more now since this is more or less my job and I’m willing to spend a little extra money on things like nutrition. But when starting out I stuck to the basics and still do for the most part: eggs, chicken, rice, potatoes, and frozen veggies to name a few. All the extra supplements are a bonus.

Make sure you have your kidneys checked on a yearly basis if you're taking that much protein + multiple different vitamins and supplements. Nobody in the industry even bothers to point this out but you only have two kidneys and their threshold for failure is a lot closer than you would think, and that's a permanent condition that you can't reverse.

It’s a little more time consuming but if you cut the grapefruit in half horizontally and use a knife to go in between the segments you won’t get the white part of the fruit called the pith which is what is bitter. Or if you know how to supreme a grapefruit you can do that too. I’m sure you’ll like it much more after
