PWO Nutrition question

[zimmy]

I am about 240 @ 6'1 and a pretty high fat percentage. I lost 120 in the last 2 years.... i am going to start a good cut diet to see what I can get with that before i try any extra help.

Question is...Reading on all the stickies helped, but i do martial arts in the night and cardio (and I add weights 3 times a week) in the morning. Do I add a pwo shake in my diet so that I have one after both martial arts and the gym?

I appreciate the help, just trying to factor in and squeeze under 1830 calories.

i would just have it after weights...my opinion

just after weights bruh,

your martial arts is more like an areobic exercise, no need for PWO after that

thanks guys

6'1" 240 lbs...
and consuming under 1830 cals a day? doesn't sound right to me.
you may be burning lean muscle at that point man...

instead of a high GI carb like weight training u want COMPLEX carbs after martial arts

then again if he has high % of fat then his LBM is realitively low.. couple that w/ a slow metabolism .. it might be perfect where he is 600-700 cals under maint.

and i totally agree, its just that my common sense would tell me after he lost all that weight that he would have maybe bulked because i wouldn't know why he would cut right after cutting?just my look at it,
but your reasoning is right on if that is indeed the case...

well 240 @ 18-22% isnt exactly FUN to be at..

yah... i am far from lean enough to start worrying about bulking. That and I have a hard time determining what is fat I need to loose and what is loose skin. i weighed 360lbs for more than 5 years of my life. And before then i was always 250-300 of 45% + bf.

wat i do is cut till i see abs then bulk till i kant see my winky.. wash rinse repeat.

anyways you seem NEW TO THE GAME .. so it is POSSIBLE to gain muscle and lose fat for a while.
just tweek ur diet so ur eating lil below maintaince... eat the right foods at the right times and train properly, strictly w/o going overboard.
