Right, that's why I suggested the cutting sticky. It's all laid out there as clear as day, that's a great help indeed.

I am more than sure you'll see the areas in which to improve.

~SC~

OK, how's this....

5 am cardio on empty stomach

Breakfast 6 am

Bowl of oatmeal with splenda and cinnamon in it
3 hardboiled eggs with salt
cup of green tea

Protein bar at 8:30 am

Lunch 11:30 am
Turkey sandwich on wheat bread with fat free cheese and fat free mayo

1:30 snack
85 g of albacore tuna with fat free mayo

Dinner 3:30 (pre workout) from Boston Market
1/2 rotisserie chicken (I don't eat the skin) OR rotisserie turkey creamed

spinach and green beans

Evening Meal 6 pm (post workout(lifting)
Protein shake (55g of protein, 7 g of carbs) mixed with 46 g of Dextrose

Bedtime meal 8:30 pm
M-Sat 1 chicken breast with marinade
baked potato with salt and pepper

Sun Steak with sweet potato with salt and pepper

cup of sleepytime tea with valerian in it

I will also be drinking 5 liters of water a day (no soda, iced tea, etc)

I calculated it out to 240 g of protein and 210 g of carbs.

Is this any better?

Gravy and butter are a no-no. Protien and carbs, or protien and fat, but no carbs and fat.

So turkey with no gravy and potaoes with no butter. What about salt and pepper, they OK?

pepper is fine and salt is only a prob if you are worried about some bloat and/or bloodpressure ect ect

If I'm taking 55 g of protein in my post workout shake, is 46 g of dextrose enough?

2:1 carb:pro ration in PWO shake. dude, are you sure you read the sticky????


dcb

So I need 110 g of dextrose?

Throw out those protien bars, they suck ball ass, have a protien shake instead with some peanuts or cashews. Your breakfast is bad, oat meal has carbs and eggs have fat, carb/fat is bad. Axe the oatmeal and go for the pro/fat meal to keep in liposys (fat burning after cardio).

I use 3 table spoons of dextrose in a shake. You cant convert tablespoons to grams (volume to mass dont work) so I dont know much 110g is. If you knew the mass in grams of 3 tablespoons of dex then you could use the molecular wieght of 198g/mol of dex to find out how many grams are in 3 tablespoons, but I dont have a postal scale.

If he did he didn't pay attention. Oats/bread/gravy/butter/wtf???????

~SC~

Well the dextrose I bought has a serving size of 4 tablespoons equals 46 g of dextrose, so to get 110 g I need about 10 scoops?

what do we think???? we think its time to invest in a calculator so you dont have to ask:hello:

ok dude. . 2 scoops of dex (using your protein scooper) is about 75 grams of carbs. on a side note, 110 sounds like an aweful lot of dex to me, you dont need that much to recover.

if you get it from kentnutrition i believe the include a scoop that is 10g. pretty easy to count by 10's
