Has anyone done Bodybuilding on Venison rather than Chicken?

[sunnysideup]

Im entering my first Bodybuilding competition next year so am training hard at the moment, just wondered if anyone had ever used a different type of meat in their diet which wasn't chicken? I know its not that bigger deal at the moment seen as im off-season but was thinking more of using it for the lead up to the comp. Things are a bit tight moneywise and thought this could be a cheaper option seen as hubby is a keen hunter and all......your suggestions and comments are very welcome! Along with any other money saving Bodybuilding tips too!

yeah venison would be great coming into a comp because its very lean/high protein as is most wild game. i supplement my diet with a lot of meat i have shot or caught myself. deer, pigs, tahr, trout, salmon, sea fish, all sorts of stuff. hunting and fishing is my number 1 hobby. lifting heavy shit comes a close 2nd :grin:

I had venison alot on my diet for the worlds and it was delicious... nice lean meat and v. tasty! Makes a nice change from chicken. I usually try and keep the meats varied anyway during comp prep chicken/turkey/fish/venison/steak (as well as egg whites).

Get hubby to snot a couple of bunnies while he's out. Rabbit meat is incredibly lean (and yum).

Yup Venison +1

Great training.

Strong quads are a must when you have to stand up with a massive deer on your back! Then you need a great core to keep balance as you work your way out of the bush.

At the end of the day it all makes a turd. I would regularly have osterich meat which is similar to chicken but thicker tissue and red ... higher and leaner than most other meats. If you have access to Venison get stuck in. Wish I did ... :nod:

Chicken's magical muscle building and fat burning qualities can not be duplicated by anything else :-s

But like others have said lean cuts of any type meat will do the job

damn, I would love on it if I had access now. Long gone are the days with the .303

Do it!
