Am I doing this right?

[BassMuscle]

Because of work schedule I have to work out at 5:00am to 6:15am and I'm planning my first cycle by mid November and have everything nailed down except my diet.

It’s a bulking cycle of Test E and Eq. My stats are: 30yo 5’11” 190lbs, I stared a @ 230lbs and drop to 175 lbs in 2 years, then slowly bulk to 190 in 1½ years, my BF% is around 12-14% not really sure.

So I figured this out, please critique:

3:00am.- Before Work out shake 2 ON scoops, with 1 banana
Pro: 46 Carb: 36 Fat: 4 = 360 cal

6:30am.- PWO Shake 3 ON scoops and 150gr Dextrose
Pro: 69 Carb: 159 Fat: 4.5 = 950 cal

8:30am.- 4 whole eggs, 8 egg whites, 1½ cups of oats, 500ml of milk, and cup of coffee
Pro: 84 Carb: 107 Fat: 50 = 1200 cal

12:00pm.- 300gr Chicken breast and a portion of veggies with olive oil
Pro: 90 Carb: 6 Fat: 23 = 590 cal

3:00pm.- Chicken breast salad (100gr) with olive oil
Pro: 31 Carb: 7 Fat: 18 = 310 cal

6:00pm.- Shake 2 Scoops with 500ml of milk
Pro: 62 Carb: 28 Fat: 19 = 530 cal

9:00pm.- 300gr of Salmon or 250gr of rib eye, Salad, and 100gr of rice
Pro: 80 Carb: 32 Fat: 15 = 580 cal

10:00pm.- Shake ON 2 scoops, 1tbs of flaxseed oil, ½ cup of cottage cheese
Pro: 62 Carb: 10 Fat: 21 = 480 cal

That sum 5000 calories.

Now do I have this right?

No one has any opinions on this bulking diet??

[capone_22]

Off topic but judging by your plan, are you getting enough sleep (which is extremely important)??? Imean, the earliest you would sleep according to your plan is 10 and then your up by 3. But in reality, you would probably hit the sheets after 10 correct?

I would try to workout after at least 2 meals. What time do you get off work? Maybe an after work workout would be better?

But if you're intent on sticking to your plan here are a few suggestions IMO...
1. maybe add some oats in meal #1 since it's about 2 hrs before your workout.
2. I would add more complex carbs into the mix as you only have them in 2 of your 8 meals.
3. maybe switch your meal at 6pm with real food instead of the shake.

i guess that's all i can suggest right now. maybe other bros can give in. good luck.

Yeah bro, if youre on cycle youre gonna need more sleep than 5 hours...

[fritz2435]

Yeah, you need to add another source of carbs in meal 1. (oats, swt potato, br rice)

[BassMuscle]

Yeah bro, if youre on cycle youre gonna need more sleep than 5 hours...

I'm sleeping from 9:30-10pm to 4:45am I just wake up to eat a shake, and I prefer the shake because I can drink it fast and go back to sleep.

And I take a one hour nap after I eat at 12pm, It's call a mexican siesta

I think it sums a bit over 8 hours, I'ts hard couse I work 12 hours a day monday tru friday.

I would cut down on your shakes. Prepare food ahead of time so you don't have to keep taking shakes.

How about this:

3:00am.- Before Work out shake 2 ON scoops, with 1 banana
Pro: 46 Carb: 36 Fat: 4 = 360 cal

6:30am.- PWO Shake 3 ON scoops and 150gr Dextrose
Pro: 69 Carb: 159 Fat: 4.5 = 950 cal

8:30am.- 4 whole eggs, 8 egg whites, 1½ cups of oats, 500ml of milk, and cup of coffee
Pro: 84 Carb: 107 Fat: 50 = 1200 cal

12:00pm.- 300gr Chicken breast and a portion of veggies with olive oil
Pro: 90 Carb: 6 Fat: 23 = 590 cal

3:00pm.- Chicken breast salad (100gr) with olive oil
Pro: 31 Carb: 7 Fat: 18 = 310 cal

6:00pm.- 250gr Rib eye, Salad and 2 Boiled Potatoes
Pro: 80 Carb: 66 Fat: 12 = 690 cal

8:30pm.- 300gr of Salmon or 250gr of rib eye, Salad, and 100gr of rice
Pro: 80 Carb: 32 Fat: 15 = 580 cal

9:00pm.- Shake ON 2 scoops, 1tbs of flaxseed oil, ½ cup of cottage cheese
Pro: 62 Carb: 10 Fat: 21 = 480 cal

Now that sum 51600 calories of wish: Pro: 542gr, Carb: 423gr Fat: 147.5

Now, I change my 6pm shake for real food (don’t know how am I going to pull this one), and my sleeping time to 9 o’clock.

Now is this right?

You seem to be mixing lots of carbs/saturated fats.

Carbs/fat together is not a good idea, saturated fat is worse.

I think I'm only doing this when I eat real food, I'll always try to eat the leanest meat, and chicken breast. But this are the number I get from the USDA food database, they may be a little off, but if not what can I do? What are you suggestions? I would really apreciated.

Thank you in advanced, and all for replying but I still have a lot to learn and I want to do this right.

when easting the rib eye make it a pro/fat meal because of the amount of fat in the steak.same with the 8.30 meal drop the egg yolks and eat more whites make it pro/carb.you do not want to be eating pro/carbs/fat in the same meals.

[BassMuscle]

and this?

3:00am.- Before Work out shake 2 ON scoops, with 1 banana
Pro: 46 Carb: 36 Fat: 4 = 360 cal

6:30am.- PWO Shake 3 ON scoops and 150gr Dextrose
Pro: 69 Carb: 159 Fat: 4.5 = 950 cal

8:30am.- 12 egg whites, 1½ cups of oats, 500ml of skim milk, and cup of coffee
Pro: 75 Carb: 108 Fat: 16.5 = 880 cal

12:00pm.- 300gr Chicken breast and a portion of veggies with olive oil
Pro: 90 Carb: 6 Fat: 23 = 590 cal

3:00pm.- Chicken breast salad (100gr) with olive oil

Took the whole eggs on the 8:30am and replace it with egg whites, and the milk with skim milk and took a lot of the fat away, and I'm going extra lean an the rib eye.

Do I have this right?

Bump for critique.

[)(PimP JuicE)(]

It looks good, but i still see you mixing carbs and fats. Its not a huge deal, but it makes alot of difference. see how this works for you. if you start gaining too much fat, dont mix the carbs and fats anymore.

[BassMuscle]
