Without knowing how much "lean protein" you are taking in its hard for anyone to tell if its a good diet. From one noob to another, make sure you always have every bit of info you can get in these posts. Like SC said earlier, its impossible to make any conclusions without knowing the context. Theres a few things I can tell you here: 1) use dextrose in your PWO shake for those carbs, 2) don't start cycles unless you have a perfect diet, 3) Shoot for 6 scoops of whey protein a day, as far as flax goes, I don't know what to tell you without stats.

Post exactly how much of everything you're going to take in, with cals/pro/fat/carbs. It'd also be good to know how long you've been lifting for. I'm sure this will make the process a little easier.

Have you calculated your BMR? How many grams of fat are you getting as well? Total caloric intake? I'm 5'11" 175 and my daily goal is 3125 cals, 312g protein, 312g carbs and 69g fat (for bulking). Maybe you should read the sticky...

yea i based that diet off of the sticky and i am basically cutting but hoping the cycle will still put a little lean mass on me

I don't claim in any way to be an expert here, but I would say this: Plan everything out and put it in an excel document. Get the numbers for everything (calories/fats/carbs/pro). Write up the same diet, calculate the totals. If you don't have excel, try fitday.com to manage your diet. Other than that, the diet you posted is almost exactly the same as the one posted in the cutting sticky.
