Hey i am starting my cutting phase after i get some approval of this diet.

OFF DAys
45 Minute cardio on empty

30 minutes later- pro/fat meal

2.5 hours later- pro/fat meal

2.5 hours later- pro/veggie

2.5 hours later- pro/veggie

2.5 hours later- pro/fat

1.5 hours-pro/veggie

On days are the same except for the last 2 meals which consist of a 2 pro/carb meals the 1st having 50 g pro and 125-150 g of dex and the 2nd meal consisting of 45 grams of protein and 80 grams of carbs


Also i am 5'11 and 175 lbs so shoudl i consume a tblspoon of flax seed for my fats and 45-55 g of protein for my meals?

at your height and weight 125-150g of dex is a hell of a lot of carbs for pwo nutrition in my opinion. I'm at 180 rite now and eat about 2100 calories a day and it seems like you are eating a lot more and for me im losing a pound a week. everyone's different though. also i try to get in equal fat intake for all meals except pwo and ppwo. i take in about 1tbs of flax per day total and use nuts, olive oil, and whatever fats are in meats, mayo or fish for the rest. so far i've lost 15 lbs since thanksgiving using this plan.

You're going to have to experiment w/your amounts for your weight.

agreed...dont wanna go too hypo caloric....i found that the RMR calculator from www.bodybuilder.com helped me establish a decent number to shoot for.

Recommend 40g's of protein/50-60g's of Dextrose PWO SHAKE

And have a 1/2 cup of oats/rice PWO meal.

It's more along the lines of a 2:1 ratio of dextrose to protein PWO.

Ex.- 40g protein, 80g dextrose

I personally like to play it safe and not use too much simple sugars post workout, while cutting.

[bigsd67]

i go with 30g protein and 60g dextrose then 30g carbs from potato, yam or oats and 30g protein from chicken or tuna PPWO. this so far has been working great for me and i have been losing a pound a week.
