Diet on the main site.

This diet is on the main site but I was wondering what everyone's thoughts was on it? I ask because when my syringes get here I can start my gear and I do not want to fvck this up. But this seems high in carbs to me.

Hey brother. I apologize if you posted this somewhere else and i didn't see it but what are your stats and goals? I'm assuming this is a bulking diet, right? Any idea what your caloric needs are for cutting/maintenance/bulking? Hit me up with them, and i can probably give a more detailed response...

Looks like you would get some weight gain from fat on that diet.

Tigershark's stats are:

5'11''
189 lbs.
15% bf
age ?

Is this accurate Tigershark?

The carbs would be way overblown for a guy your size! I would up the protein 100g or so since you're planning on cycling... Cut the carbs inhalf (400-475 should be plenty), you could leave the fats where they are or decrease them 20g or so... It just depends on what you feel your body needs... There aren't enough meals either... You have gaps of 3.5 hours between eating... IMO, especially while cycling, you should be eating every 2.5 hours

I would second everything FIT wrote. He knows his stuff.

Thanks all. I will make the changes. And is 15% BF too much for a cycle?

[fit4ever180]

Thanks dg

I'm not the most experienced guy on cycling... I can only tell you what I've read and been told by the vets, which is 15% is the absolute minimum for a person to cycle... Ideally you should be closer to 10% or less, but anything over 15% you're asking for more pronounced side effects... What are you going to run?

I would like to add that you should try to keep your caloric intake somewhat uniform over the course of your five meals. I personally try to keep my meals within 50-75 calories of each other. But, i figure that once the carbs are reduced, it will most become more even, and then just some simple tinkering should be able to get your macros more level. Best of luck brother.
