cutting....bulking....?

ugh.... look at the cutting sticky in this forum, it will help you tons. 1.5 or 2 hours of biking is way too much, your heart rate is probably way too high, and id be willing to bet you dont do it in the AM on an empty stomach... SO, youre burning muscle or burning food that can be used to build it.

to add on to that.. 1.5-2 hours is WAY to much.. you also might want to drop the oatmeal if you are going do cardio prior. when do you work out? your lacking a pwo shake..

My diet to lose my fat! That I gaines some how???

[pspcs83]

i think there may be too many carbs on a daily basis for a cutting diet. You should only really be having that many during PWO and PPWO in myopinion.

[mustang331]

I am cutting... I am doing my cardio at night.. THE ONLY TIME I CAN.. I do it from about 6pm-8pm.. Right now this is all I am doing till another 2 or 3 weeks when I rejoin my gym..

[The TooL]

doing am cardio is 10x better then doing it at night!!

[AandF6969]

Are you just that lazy or what? Go to sleep an hour earlier and wake up an hour earlier.

Also, READ THE CUTTING STICKY in this forum, it will help you LOSE FAT while maintaining muscle!

Your current diet is horrible bro...

Here is my daily diet...


Meal-1) 10 egg whites
1/2 cup of oatmeal (no milk)
water

NO OATMEAL HERE IF CARDIO IN AM
INSTEAD ADD 2 EGG YOLKS

Meal-2) 1 can tuna
salad with fat-free,low-sugar dressing
1 med. baked potato
water

MAKE IT 1 1/2 CANS OF TUNA

Meal-3) 8oz. skinless chicken breast
1/2 cup Success brown rice
1 cup of veggies
water

IF YOU WORKOUT BEFORE MEAL 3 MAKE MEAL 3 A PWO SHAKE W/ 40G PROTEIN 40G MALTODEXTRIN 40G DEXTROSE

Meal-4) 1 can tuna
salad (same as above)
water

1 1/2 CANS TUNA... SHOULD BE A PRO/CARB MEAL ALSO EAT 1/2 CUP BROWN RICE W/ SALAD

Meal-5) 8oz.skinless chicken breast
water

NEVER EAT PROTEIN BY ITSELF... MAKE IT 6 OZ CHICKEN OR A SHAKE W/ 1 OZ PEANUTS

Meal-6) Whey protein drink with 2 tbsp.olive oil

GOOD... MAKE SURE SHAKE HAS AROUND 40G PROTEIN

Should I take the rice out? Or just leave ALL the carbs out?? It would be easier for me to keep the patato if I can.

DONT TAKE THE CARBS OUT!!! Atkins is $HIT. You need carbs to shuttle protiens around, you need protiens to build muscle. And that 2 hour bike ride, that is taking all the muscle away that you worked hard for in the gym, plus burning all the food you just ate, so the meal was a waste too. Read the cutting sticky and try to do some AM cardio. Your body will use any food in your stomach for fuel before fat, because its easier to use food. Thats the whole purpose of doing it in the morning.

[mustang331]

ok well then regarding bike riding.. how long for a morning ride??

[AandF6969]

45-60 minutes on an empty stomach at 65%-75% of your maximum heart rate
