Team Pacquiao: Protein shakes being replaced with more food. Good or Bad?

[#1Assassin]

i think thats good for pacquiao. i always felt real food beats a shake any day of the week. i sometimes drink shakes myself but just out of convenience, a good meal is always a better option so pacquiao having a personal chef thats a good call.

Its always better to get protein and nutrients from proper food sources BUT those food sources have to be right.

his personal "chef" is this guy (Nonoy Neri), i don't think he has any background in nutrition. looks like pac just gave the job to a homeboy

Completely ditching protein shakes alltogether as a result of Ariza leaving is way over the top.

There's no benefit to doing that imo, just reduce it to one a day. It's a convenient way to get some protein in the system without having to constantly spend time eating.

I know jokes are made of Ariza but I don't think he had dodgy stuff going on, and Pac was at some of his best when he was most adhering to what Ariza had him doing. To move even further away from that still is amatuerish.

Shakes are just for lazy people.

Hes still going to drink protein shakes not just Aziras recipe.. Getting enough protien just off food will not work unless someone were to eat about 50lbs of meat a day.

Michael Phelps famously had 12,000 calorie diet for his training and he weighs like 190lbs so why can't a 150lbs pacquiao (in training) do 7000? That doesn't seem too unbelievable to me. **** the average american probably eats 5000 and they don't even train

You realize that most of those 12K calories were mostly just from the munchies.

Shakes are bull****, just a waste of money

They're much cheaper than what Pac is eating though. Rios must be so jealous he can't pig out even at 147 when Pac is eating like an animal and still looks like a 135lber.

Protein shakes or good nutritious food are both good. Ariza is probably good at what he does but Pacquiao is a great fighter with or without him. Pacquiao can easily meat his protein needs with beef, chicken or fish or even cottage cheese. A pound of beef, fish or chicken has over 100 grams of protein. It sounds like Pacquiao eats a few pounds of these foods daily so he is getting a few hundred grams of protein a day which is more than his body needs anyway.Look at Bradley,s build and he trains on a strict vegetarian diet.

I'm wondering how many tubs of tofu and tempeh Bradley's liquifying to feed and build that PEDS enhanced look on his body.
