**eljeffe** · 09-25-2006, 05:38 PM

Multi with meal one
V 12 turbo 2x on workout days
all meat is cooked with olive oil
Oatmeal is always old fashion (slow cooking)

Meal #1
2 whole eggs + 4 egg whites
½ - 3/4 cup oatmeal before cooking
30-40 g protien powder (right now muscle milk)

Workout

Meal #2 PWO
Protein Drink: 2-3 Scoops Protein, 4-6 TBS whipping
cream, and 12-18-oz water
½ banana or 4 frozen strawberries

Meal #3
8 - 10 oz. chicken (before cooking)
6 - 8 oz. sweet potato or 1/2 – 1 cup cooked rice
2 cups vegetables (broccoli, etc.)

Meal #4
1 can tuna
1 slice whole wheat bread
1 small orange

Meal 5
8 ounces beef
1 cup whole wheat pasta
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp parmasan cheese

Protein Drink: 2-3 Scoops Protein Powder, 4-6 TBS whipping
cream, and 12-18-oz water
½ banana or 4 frozen strawberries)

Meal #6
8 - 10 oz. chicken (before cooking)
6 - 8 oz. sweet potato or 1/2 – 1 cup cooked rice
2 cups vegetables (broccoli, etc.)

Meal #7 (Non Training Days)
10 -oz chicken breast, 2 cups vegetables;

Meal #7 (Training Days)
1.5 cups cooked rice, 10 oz sweet potato,
1 banana, 1 cup vegetables, 1 TBS Butter or Peanut Butter

After searching for close to a month to get the best diet I could to fit my needs, this is what I came up with, the reason for the excess carbs on workout days is I am an extreme extomorph 6' 170 and have never been able to put on weight and this diet is based on the prinicple of having enough slow burning carbs to allow your body to use the protien to build muscle. I just turned 27 so I am hoping this will help, I am going to do 6 weeks on 1 week off until the begining of the year and will reevaluate then, I hope to gain 20-25 lbs by then. oh yea i am doing the doggchrap or what ever it is workout off of here, only hear good thing about it. So here are my questions

1. Does this still seem like too many carbs to anyone?

2. Can I use metamusil and Green machine drink to replace the veggies as they are hard for me to fix and carry around?

3. What should I do during my week off, eat more, less or just mix it up alot so my body is confused when I start back up again?

Thanks in advance for any answers.

macros? List them for each meal and final macros so we can critique.
Off the bat, I wouldn't cook anything in olive oil, JMO.

you should use olive oil as it has helped lower my cholesterol from 206 to 165 and my HDL level is 67 which is crazy good, use oils and nuts and you will have great cholesterol and it is bad in my family, I fing hate the macros but I will do them.

I agree, olive oil is a very healthy fat but not when its heated.

diet doesn't look too bad. while bulking i pound the carbs. i don't change diet on off days.

lol, you hate macros? Then how do you expect to grow without knowing the approx amount of calories you take in each day.. it has to be consistant bro but I try not to get in the habit of eating the same thing each day, notice much better results when cycling macros both bulking and cutting.
