    Diet Critique

    Hey guys.

    I was wondering if yall could give me some feed back on the diet I've been on for the past 2 weeks. I'm a collegiate rower, and the nutritional coach at my university came up with this diet to help me loose body fat.

    My stats are:
    Age: 18
    Weight: 194
    Height: 6'6
    Body fat: 17%

    In rowing, it's important to be extremely lean. Just twelve pounds of dead weight can slow a boat down by one second. But that's besides the point. I'd really appreciatte how you guys interpret this. I am seeing positive results, (I've lost 5 pounds of fat in the past two weeks), but I want to see if I can maximize everything.

    Meal 1:
    ½ cup Oats
    6oz Chicken
    (57g P/ 9g Fat/ 27g carb/431 cals)

    Meal 2:
    6oz Chicken
    2cups mixed vegetables
    (54g P/ 6g Fat/ 8g carb/ 331 cals)


    Work Out

    Meal 3:
    Protein Shake
    (23g P/2g Fat/ 2g C/ 110 cals)

    Meal 4:
    6oz Chicken
    2cups mixed vegetables
    (54g P/ 6g Fat/ 8g carb/ 331 cals)


    Meal 5:
    7oz Tuna
    2cups mixed vegetables
    1 sweet potato
    (36g P/ 20g Fat/ 24g carbs/ 453 cals)

    Meal 6:
    Protein Shake
    (23g P/2g Fat/ 2g C/ 110 cals)

    Total|:
    247g Protein
    45g Fat
    71g Carbs
    1,766 Cals


    Thanks you guys!!!!!!!

    Looks pretty decent... I'd put whole foods as your last meal because they get digested slower, whey is digested too quickly for muscle maintenance while you're sleeping. You could make the last meal a protein/fat meal (you hardly have any fats in there during the day... fats are essential for testosterone production) just make sure they're healthy fats like peanuts, almonds, flax seed oil, salmon, etc.

    Also you should be taking in some carbohydrates after training... I like to take in 50g protein, 50g maltodextrin and 50g dextrose.
