Anything and Everything....protein around 360, carbs around 400

[The French Curler]

My offseason diet:

Everything in sight. Some of you know how it is being an ectomorph.

[Gene]

meal 1 - beef ravioli + egg whites ~ 40g protein 90g carbs 20g fat
meal 2 - protein shake (30g)
workout - during workout 50-75g maltodextrin
meal 3 - 50g protein, 80g dextrose/maltodextrin
meal 4 - mexican rice + grilled steak + beans ~ 40g protein 60-80g carbs + lot of fat
meal 5 - chicken breast + [buckwheat or pasta] ~ 30g protein + 40-80g carbs
meal 6 - same as #5
meal 7 - same as #5 (usually finish 1-2 pounds of chicken breast by this point)
meal 8 (before bed) - nonfat cottage cheese + skim milk + peanut butter (40g protein, ~50g lactose + sucrose carbs, 12g fat)
meal 9 (middle of night #1) - 20g protein
meal 10 (middle of night #2) - 20g protein
(I usually wake up twice because I drink a lot of water/milk during the day, and the first protein shake makes me wake up 2nd time 3 hours later... I try to limit this to 3 days/week, and other days get 8-9 hours straight with REM sleep. Remember it important to stay hydrated at night, you loose a lot of water and dehydration is a no no)

Don't really care much for precise calorie counting at this point, rough approximations tend to suffice.

Once in a while, we go to burger king and smack down 4-5 king supreme sandwiches (at like 500 cal/sandwich).

One more thing, this is probably a slight overestimate, this is my goal and I sometimes don't hit it everyday, but its good to have a gameplan to follow. I do this at least 3 days per week and especially on workout days.

Happy growing.

Diet.....who needs a stinking diet. I rather enjoy looking like anna nicole smith on steriods while not dieting

[The French Curler]

Jesus Christ, Gene! How many calories does your offseason diet consist of?!? You must truly be more of an ectomorph than myself!

Yea it's a little tough for me. Supposedly I'm an ectomorph with a fast metabolism, but I don't buy all that sissycrap. Just stuff yourself with hardcore protein and carb calories and eventually your body has only one choice -- grow.

I do a lot of crazy macronutrient cycling, I cycle everything -- protein, carb, fat, post-workout carb amounts... whatever it takes.

Look around the board, you'll see some off-season diets that will make my look like nothing. I know Superbeast's diet is like 6,000 calories of hell, my is nothign by comparison. and Mike XXL got a wickedly organized diet.
