    critique good or bad, low carb diet plan

    As always, I hope my fellow brothers on the forum can help me tweak my low carb diet I’ve written out. I’m currently 6’0, 195-200lbs n body fat is unknown, but I’m sure it’s in the high 20%, as I’ve really let myself go for the past 1yr ½ due to personal reasons that were affecting me both physically and mentally ,but I’m glad that’s all in the past and I can move on to a better me. I’ll be lifting 6 days on and 1 day off. Any helpful critiques, be it good or bad are what I’m looking for and greatly appreciated. Supplements I’ll be using will be creatine, l-glutamine, multivitamins, bcaa’s, pre- intra-workout supps…
    Meal 1 ( post-workout)
    3 scoops whey isolate
    2 cups basmati rice (large muscles 60-90g carbs, small muscles 30-60g carbs)
    10 g creatine
    Meal 2
    8oz steak
    Asparagus
    1tbsp olive oil
    Meal 3
    2 cans tuna low sodium/oil
    1oz raw almonds
    Meal 4
    8oz chicken breast
    1 whole avocado
    Asparagus
    Meal 5
    2 scoops whey isolate
    3 whole eggs
    1tbsp coconut oil
    4oz steak
    Meal 6
    5 whole eggs
    2 scoops casein
    And thanks again….

    No gatorade!

    Gatorade has or did have... Bromine in it. Im pretty adamant about keeping industrial chemicals out of the body, food, and drink. I mean if these chemicals were in a bucket, u wouldnt reach down and sip up a handful cuz 1st off, you'd die and 2nd off, u wouldnt be able to to do that with most of these chemicals, as theyre unstable and very irritating.
    Bromine in particular is a very irritating chemical and member of the halogen family. U can do more research if u like, but I personally stay away from Gatorade.

    u say gatorade is for simple sugars "NEEDED"?? why do u "NEED" simple sugars PWO?? (other than u think u need a spike in insulin to shuttle nutrients into the muscle)???

    in ur OP u say ur "HIGH 20's" for body fat %

    now ur saying 21%

    which one is it and how can u be sure??

    (assuming ur 21% bf 195lbs)
    2700cals is approx 400 over maintenance which means u will probably NOT lose fat and possibly GAIN it..
