I am about to head out, but I thought Id quickly reply to this. Alot of the other bro's will add to this with some great suggestions as well.
1) When you mention eggs in your morning meal. Do you mean egg whites? If not, switch to egg whites. If you dont, your mixing fat/carbs in some of your meals. I would also had more protein here. 6 eggs or egg whites isnt that much protein, I usually throw the whole cartoon of whites in the pan.
2) I know you said your workout-football schedule is in stone for awhile, which really sucks, but im not totally sure how that will work out, maybe someone else can offer suggestions, but it seems to me that your PWO may be used partially to fuel ur run instead of fully being used to replenish glycogen levels after lifting.
3) I would personally ditch the peanuts right off the bat. There are far better choices such as others you have listed. Occassionally eating them wont hurt yea if you need a change, but if your adding alittle too much fat than you would like, i would scrap 'em.
4) You have your morning carbs in right places for adding muscle (morning, pwo, ppwo) but some may say up the carbs per meal, as in maybe eat a cup of brown rice instead of half a cup. You will have to play around. You also eat no carbs on wednesday. I will let other people add their opinion on that because I am not quite sure.
Looks like a solid starting point, good luck

awesome dude, thanks....impressive stuff. what ill probably do about the wed. run is when we start doing more agility ill switch, but keep it pro/fat for now.
one more question? at my 9 oclock meal is it cool to mix the tuna w/ full fat mayo and just cut the flax? or should i find another way to eat the tuna and keep the flax?
thanks again

doesn't seem like you'd be getting enough calories. With your muscle mass, you'd probably be burning 3000 calories just lying in bed. Add all the training and you probably need 2000 before adding more for the AS mass gain.
No?

yeah i agree, not enough calories, any suggestions where to add some stuff in? i'm willing to add fat, just keeping it to the minimum=lean mass, need a little help bros

just read one of swolecat's articles on the micro perspective on nutrition. Should i worry more about that than my total intake in this diet for my goals ?

06-15-2004, 09:59 PM #14
...not to mention being on a cycle:
1-4 dbol 35 mg ed
1-10 test E 500 mg/week
1-pct nolva 10mg/ed
1-pct l-dex .25 /ed
thanks, just trying to figure this all out

I'm not a diet expert but you should probably pound down the carbs a couple of hours before your training (ideally low glycemic carbs like whole wheat, non-instant oatmeal, etc.) and drink gatorade. Otherwise, your aerobic workouts are going to canibalize your muscles. Keep that glycogen stocked in your muscles and they can use the protein for repair. That's the basic principle.

Sorry for my screwed up response. You're right about the lifting vs. aerobic and you're right about the timing. What I do is to take a protein shake about an hour before lifting and then another one with sugar afterwards. For sustained aerobic/anerobic activity, I usually eat carbs about 4-5 hours before so they're not sitting in my stomach. Then I drink carbs during it so it doesn't cannibalize the protein (catabolic effect).
This may not be the best way to burn fat. I tried the keto diet for 3 weeks and it sure burned fat but limited my energy during intensive sports. I had the six pack but not the energy on the field.

yeah, i've just been taking in a pro/fat meal, like a can of tuna, scoop of whey, and some natural pb. It's workin pretty well and after the first week of doing this i'm starting to already see some results. Thanks though bro
