    Broken leg help needed!!!

    Hay guys I broke my leg 3 weeks ago playing rugby. Before the brake my diet consisted of 5 meals of 50g protien 50g low gi carbs plus recovery shakes after training. Since braking my leg i've been doing German Volume training for upperbody only 2days on 1off to try and add some upperbody lean muscle and burn some fat at the same time seen as I cant do any cardio or fittness. I'm slacking bad on my diet and eating loads cos i'm bored stuck at home!!!

    I'm guessing all these carbs are no longer needed how many carbs should I be looking at per meal right now? I want to add some lean mass and drop some bf. I've decided to run some anavar at 80mg a day for 6 weeks and also going to run some clen haven't decided on dosage yet depends how much I can handle I suppose. Any advice on diet would be much appreciated. I hav protien powders, recovery drinks, meal replacements at home.

    STATS

    26 years old
    16-17% body fat looking to drop to about 12% over the next 5-6 weeks i'm in plaster
    height 6ft 4in

    pineapples in own juices
    3:PM 2bagles split and toasted with jam and a protein shake

    My goals over the next 6weeks are to lower body fat and increase lean mass I'm not bothered about weighing more but don't want to lose weight either. although losing fat and gaining weight would be awesome!!! All my weight training before this I'd say was sports specific with cleans, deadlifts, squats, bench press, bent over rows, military press being my main exercises with low rep range. Now I'm doing the German volume training I'm thinking I'm going to get some good muscle gains as my muscles have never really had a hypertrophy program run over weeks

    lets take it one step at a time. i tore 3 ligaments in my ankle and was casted for 7 weeks last summer. i went to the gym 3x a week and did
    mon-chest/back

    wed-delts, bis, tris

    friday-chest/back

    i would eat at your BMR maybe add liek 200-300 calories. you are going to be sedentary unless your gnna crutch around the track like an animal. and if you dotn paly off your current numbers your probly going to either lose ro gain pretty fast considering you dont know how many cals your shocking into your body, i would try my ebst to find those cals out.

    Ha yeah I wont be doing anything apart from upper body weights and sitting on my ass! after 6 more weeks in plaster I'm going 2 end up with a 180kg bench and a 60kg squat lol.
    My kals before used 2 be about 5000 a day but thats training twice a day and also working 3days a week in construction and still training on working days. surly my body is going to be completely different now I'm just sitting around? I was thinking no carbs at all after 7pm

    if your workout ends at 8 youll need carbs to replenish. that simple. dont go by times but by when your body can utilize carbs without getting fat
