    Couple questions I have:
    1)In my meals here I used chicken some days I eat the same meat for all my meals is this ok? I try to bounce between, tuna, chicken, salmon, shrimp, and occasionally steak. Is steak ok to eat on workout days are there certain times or just any time with protein?

    2)Due to my schedule Im limited as to when i can work out this is a example of a Monday for me. On wed and thursday i work out at 6-6:30 what should i change as far as my meals go to accommodate for the later work out?

    3)Also since I go to bed around 11-11:30 will i still have enough time to eat a meal with carbs after my pwo shake on late work out days?

    Lots of questions but trying to get a good solid base line down then figure out tweaking as i go and learn my body. Appreciate the Help

    Your daily protein intake is way too much for your stats and this is mostly due to your shakes that contain way too much protein in one serving. I can make you a solid list of pro BB's who have won competitions like Mr. Universe and Mr. Olympia with a dailly protein intake less than 300gr a day. Your daily intake of 427gr protein ED is extreme and hence wasteful IMO.

    Drop all dairy and fruit for now, it has no place in building a chiselled physique, also replace all protein and carb powders for real food, as above drop protein to 300 gr.

    I figured the protein was about 100g too high, what about the carbs should I decrease those at all?
    And also my fat intake I didn't factor in my fish oils which adds another 12g of fat for a total of 66g.

    Your daily carb intake is fine for your stats. When carbs are the subject, it is really impossible to generalize since different individuals have completely different carb metabolisms. Some burn all of heir daily carb intake; whereas some suffer from carb bloating and/or tend to store the carb cals. as BF. My PT consumes about twice my daily carb intake and he is always a much leaner person. As long as you have a decent carb metabolism and remain physically active throughout the day, 211gr of daily carb intake is about the last thing you need to worry in your diet. As for your 66gr daily fat intake, you might be better off dropping it to 50gr range, since you are rather looking forward to lean bulking as opposed to bulking for mass.

    You have way too many carbs, way too much protein and way too little fat. You need to eat real food.

    Fat does not make you fat if you choose the right fats. And all that excess carbohydrates will just be stored as fat.

    I knocked the protein down to 300, I am in sales but sit at a desk a lot. I get to the gym 3-4hrs (weights) a week and play rec softball 2-3nights a week. I am not real active at softball yet, still recovering from knee reconstruction.. where would you recommend my carbs and fat intake be around? percentage wise how is 45%p/35%C/20%F for a start?
    I have also cut out the string cheese, and colby cheese and substituted in almonds, walnuts, flaxseed for fat sources.
