my 1st cutting diet

**Fakey_AK** · 08-18-2009, 11:50 AM

Hey I'm cutting for my first time. A little long over due I think but better late than never.

Well this is it.

5:00am
protein shake: 24g protein and 2g carbs

At gym between 5:05am and 6:25am

6:30am
protein shake: 24g protein and2g carbs and 5g L-Glutamine

7:00am
1 cup oats and six egg whites

10:00am
protein shake: 24g protein and 2g carbs and 5g L-Glutamine

13:00pm
2 steamed chicken breast, 1 potatoe and green salad

15:30pm
1 can tuna and 1 cup of rice and small portion of spinach

17:30pm
Protein shake: 24g protein and 2g carbs and 5g L-Glutamine

19:30pm
2 steamed chicken breast, 1 cup broccoli

before bed
protein shake: 24g protein and 2g carbs and 5g L-Glutamine

That's my diet. Is it good, will it help me cut?
Any help is welcome.
My stats:
23 yr
180 lbs

5 foot 9 inches

Not to sure about my length and bf%!

Wow that looks like a lot of food.

I think try to move your carbs to Breakfast and Just post workout.

I think too much protein shakes.

I am also just busy learning about dieting properly.

actually it seems like way to much carbs.

I don't think I eat as many carbs when I am bulking.

Bro... i'm pretty sure people wont like the amount of shakes you have (replace some of them by real food)
And make sure your carbs are like 100-150g a day, proteins 1.5-2.0g/ pound of weight.. maybe submit totals for all your macros.. I don't see any EFA maybe virgin olive oil somewhere in the day? you need fat to lose fat lol and 38% bf.. you should make sure about the stats and be a bit more precise to be optimal..
Stick to your cardio and fix your diet a bit and you will lose all of the weight in a reasonable amount of time

Sorry forgot to add, i take a multi vit and ***** 3&6 at 10:30am and multi vit at 17:30pm again. As for the bf% i used the calculator in the other thread. Can be wrong because was my 1st measuring so dont know if i did it correct. Wil take a closer look at my carb intake. Then i'll post my diet again. I need to get this ready for next week. Thanx for the advice!

**slugtastic** · 08-19-2009, 03:07 AM

38% are u extremely over weight??? if your not then u have got that wrong???

**Fakey_AK** · 08-19-2009, 04:02 AM

No im not extremely overweight. Only fat around my mid section and a very little bit on my chest. Obviously got it wrong wil ask for help on fitness calculator thread and get post again.

In cutting take no shakes. Shakes mantain you hungry, real food not. You can't eat 5 minutes before your workout. I don't see why you take carb when you don't need them (later hours) and don't take them in the crucial times: prewo, postwo and breakfast.

yeah man go to the gym and ask them to measure bf% with callipers ..
If your gym has a hydrostatic weighing tank you might get very lucky and get a very accurate idea about your body fat.. My gym has one
