You have too many shakes IMO

113 grams to be correct = 43% of your protein for the day is coming from shales

if you drop some of the shakes you can use real food and fuel the thermogenics process of fat burning. also u will be fuller longer. I would also add veggies to your meals..

Also i think at 250 your cals are too low for the moment i would suggest starting out higher then dropping them week by week..

the meal after the workout should have more carbs

because the reserve is empty and if you eat a lot of crab hydrates, it s sure, that it doesnt turn in fat.

**lil hulk** · 02-05-2007, 03:58 PM

it should only be at 37% at 96 grams

**JohnboyF** · 02-05-2007, 04:06 PM

27+38+48=113/260 = 43%

unless you mean ur making and adjusment.

so if i added in more veggies to a couple of my meals ..(dont kow really which ones but) it will also help kick up my calorie intake a little

**lil hulk** · 02-05-2007, 04:08 PM

im only takin 4 scoops of whey protien which is at 24g protien.....unless im not seein somthing

A quick run through is that i would drop the fruit for the following reason there is no need to spike the insulin levels mid day.. The banana in the morning is fine.. actually no i remember reading somewhere that an apple is preferable in the morning b/c of some properties...ANYHOW

By dropping the apple you allow your self roughly 20 more grams of carbs from your carb sources.. keeping you fuller longer IMO

**JohnboyF** · 02-05-2007, 04:17 PM

Veggies... Spinach, Broccoli, Cauliflower,Pepper,Lettuce, Cabbage all full of fiber and caloric dense..

**lil hulk** · 02-05-2007, 04:19 PM

**JohnboyF** · 02-05-2007, 04:21 PM
