my goal was 500g of protein, no more than 150g of carbs, and less than 100g of fat

im a lil under on my protein intake but thats alright its still not bad, oh and calories im not concerned about at all

[M302_Imola]

You need to be concerned about calories as well! Count up the calories and add it to your post. Your protein intake looks good. You def need some post workout carbs, I would add roughly 50-60 high and low glycemic carbs to your post workout meal. Also the meal gap between 1:00 and 5:30 (4-1/2 hour gap) will put your body into a catabolic state...I wouldn't go more than 2-1/2 hours without eating. I would also add some EFA's like olive oil and fish oil into your meals (breakfast and last meal of the day). The diet looks pretty good just need to make some slight adjustments

[novastepp]

totally depends on what you want to do with the diet. what are your goals?

generally you need to add carbs before and after your workouts.

if ya cuttin then I can see it but you said bulk so I think ya need way more carbs. you gonna be weak as crap on that diet you have. I dont like it

[boDAWG]

i forgot to add that im taking flaxseed oil 3 time a day, and im trying to put on muscle but lose some fat in the process, what do you think how many carbs should i stay under? because right now my goal is to stay under 100g of carbs but i might bump that to about 200g of carbs maybe even 300g what do you think is a safe number?

[green22]

I would say around 300. If your not loosing fat then you can slowly drop them, but if your busting ass with the weights and cardio then you should still loose. Are you doing cardio???if so how much???

its almost impossible to bulk on 100g of carbs unless your fat is high which it isnt.

you need to bulk or cut, quit trying to do both! eat some more veggies too.

[Undecided09]

Too much protein in meal 1 and 2. I dont think, even on cycle, your body can process that much in one sitting, maybe postlift, but not in meals 1 and 2...

Your carbs def need to be higher, I would say that when bulking, even clean bulking (whatever that dumb term thats thrown around too much is supposed to mean, lol) your pro/carb meals should always contain equal or higher grams of carbs than grams of protein, except for meals close to bedtime....

many folks do what is called culking, where you try to drop some bf while gaining strength and some mass. long term it is a very beneficial approach. I know IBDMFKR advocates this kind of training. i myself have used it and had great results with dropping body fat and making persistent gains in my workouts.
