youtube bodybuilders post the blandest food. spices don't have calories my guy. neither does lemon or vinegar at those doses. you don't need water poached chicken with salt and pepper. even medieval monks lived better than this and they had vows of poverty, not youtube.
When I was a weightlifter and rower my dinner every night was a microwaved chicken breast (with maybe salt if I remembered) and a family sized box of Mac and Cheese
I'm so glad I transitioned ajdjdmla now I love cooking delicious food for my wife every night
