anything on the diet and cardio?

Cardio should be 45 mins. if you are looking to drop fat. (No HIIT stuff)

I'd hit the diet forum and read the stickies for general assistance in that area.

~SC~

ok so kick up cardio to 45.

swole do you see a PROBELM with the diet that im using now?

some have said to drop the sweet potato in meal 3, but i didnt think that was a good idea ONLY b/c that would leave me with one carb meal + PW shake...that was my view.

ill kick up the cardio starting tomorrow morning

Looks like some good size in tha wheels!

ya man my legs are my friend hahaha

train em like it aint no thang...jsut gots to get the rest leaned up and then caught up

thanks though...at least i got one thing to be proud of...

good base to get started on AAS. Is that what you are prepping for?

The foundations are there , you will do well.

Godspeed

right now just trying to lean down and get in shape for my exchange program.

also im looking to compete next year in the nova scotia provincials as a junior.

it will be my last year in the "kids" catagory at 20 years of age, and i wanna do some damage baby!

i use to weigh 260lbs and was over weight...so ive made strides...just wanna put the cap on the journey if you get my drift.

good job ultimo the only thing i see in your diet is the sweet potato..has alot of carbs and starchs in it (correct me if im wrong). like swole said cardio is 45min to get the furnace burning. a cup of coffee helps with that also. you do have the build brotha keep us updated.

so you thin k i should kick out the potato all together and possibly replace it with just some veggies?

the only thing i dont like about that is my carb intake is sOOOOOO low for the day. i dont want my body to go all retarded, plus i usally comsume the potato and lean protein AFTER my pwshake...

but ya im gonna kick it up...HARCORE

bump if there is any more advice

Sweet potato is fine, lower GI than a regular potato and is an awesome source of complex carbohydrates. I would leave it in there, its only your 3rd meal so its not a late night carb or anything. Also I would go with one whole egg for breakfast rather than two, and bump up the number of eggwhites. Yolks are a good healthy source of fat, but one should be plenty.

Good luck on your training and diet.

goodluck bro!

ok so what do you recommend in terms of eggs then?

7 whites and 1 whole?

thanks for the encouragement...bumping up the cardio has helped a bit already, arms are coming out more. cant wait till i see all this work pay off!

i would drop the oats/carbs from your first meal to allow lipolysis from the cardio to continue....i would also add the glutamine prior to cardio and for the sake of conserving the supp...drop it from teh PWO shake...your whey probrably has it in it already.
