>animal fat is amazing
Sure, but I eat more than enough anyway, so I lean towards lean cuts

New York strip counts as a lean cut r-right?

depends on how it's cooked

fat that's been slow rendered down to be soft and melt in your mouth is delicious but a quick cooked steak will leave and chewy and rubbery which i never eat

I don't like fat.

yup it's a new /fit/ fad
these guys honestly believe an increased saturated fat intake has noticeable positive effects

Saturated fat actually has a negative impact on muscle gain, maybe due to the decrease in insulin sensitivity it causes.

>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24550191

They overfed men on the exact same number of calories, but one group from polyunsaturated fat, the other from saturated. Saturated fat caused twice as much visceral fat gain, markedly more liver fat gain. Polyunsaturated fats caused THREE TIMES more muscle gain.

So, enjoy your suboptimal gains if you eat a lot of animal fat. It's true that animal proteins tend to be higher quality, but you want leaner proteins and you want to get plenty of plant protein too because the insulin sensitizing effects of fiber and various plant phytochemicals will probably help muscle gain. See here, elderly subjects who ate more fruit and veg had more muscle: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18326605
