Whites only so he's not consuming too much cholesterol.
In all reality, the American diet has plenty of protein in it. Your body likes to use CHO for energy FIRST, then fat, then protien last. Don't consume protein as a fuel source, but rather as building/maintenance supplies. Burn up the CHOs during the work out, and if your body has plenty of protein left over, you'll use it for repairing and building muscle.
Roger's "Don't forget" list is good stuff!
