Calories?

How old are you??? Workout schedule...heavy day...light day.....max day etc. etc. I have not added it up but it looks like you are getting enough protein. The reason I asked your age is because I was stuck around 200 for years. I would suggest you find a calorie-protein-carb book or online counter. Visit www.animalpak.com for true hardcore diet and like it say's "Go Hard or Go Home" ....Peace

How old are you?
Up the calories 500 to 1000 more per day, clean though.
calories are the bricks with which we build. if 100 bricks gets use a 10 ft wall then we need another 50 to get the wall to 15ft, get it?

3000 cals my have gotten you 200lbs but to get 210-220 you may need 4,000.


Take Care,
Captain Anabolic

GET A PRO/FAT MEAL IN HERE IF YOU DO CARDIO FIRST THING IN THE A.M. SUCH AS EGG WHITES OR WHEY WITH SOME FLAX SEED OIL. IF NOT, THEN MAKE IT A SLOW DIGESTING CARB AND FAST TO MODERATE DIGESTING PROTEIN SUCH AS OATMEAL AND 10 EGG WHITES.

Meal-2 10:00
2 cans of tuna or 2 cans of chicken breasts
or a grilled chicken breast
protien shake
or a protien bar

YOU NEED SOME FATS IN THESE MEALS. PROTEIN ALONE WON'T CUT IT.

Meal-3 12 :00
Chicken breast
rice
some type of veggie

SAVE THE BULK OR ALL OF YOUR CARBS FOR PWO AFTER WEIGHT TRAINING AND THE MEAL THEREAFTER. USE PRO/FAT MEAL HERE.

meal-4 3:00
same as meal 2

SAME AS ABOVE

Meal 5 6:00pre work out
chicken breast
2 cans of yogurt
wheat bread
or a u turn bar if i have some
1 glass of oj
try to get over 100 carbs

SCRAP YOGURT, WHEAT BREAD, AND OJ. USE A PROTEIN/FAT MEAL HERE IF ITS BEFORE YOUR WEIGHT TRAINING. IF NOT THEN PROTEIN/CARB MEAL HERE IF THIS IS MEALS AFTER PWO NUTRITION.

meal 6-post work out meal
Chicken breast
Rice
milk
u turn bar or somthing with some more carbs in it
try to get 100 or more carbs

SCRAP THE MILK UP FRONT. IF THIS IS AFTER YOUR WEIGHT TRAINING AND IS THE MEALS AFTER YOUR PWO NUTRITION, THEN SOMETHING LIKE CHICKEN AND BROWN RICE WOULD WORK TO GET IN CARBS.

meal 7
chicken
veggies

SCRAP THE VEGGIES AND GO WITH A SLOW DIGESTING PROTEIN AND FAT MEAL FOR YOUR LAST MEAL.

i know its not the best diet but thats why i came to ya'll its done me right till now i have went from 179 to 205 using this and i am on cycle right now. Plz critique this i need it, i am getting so frusterated with myself

this is about my diet not my training its there and if i wanted a critique on my training i would be in another forum

Oh your twenty...then my advice to you is to take it slow. Stop weighing yourself. Start eating more potatoes, pasta, bread etc etc. Drink plenty of milk and just go have fun. At your age if your trying to gain it then you have to eat. Hell I was so obsessed with it at that age I would go eat 6 big macs and three large fries. Now, I'm not saying to go do that cause with all the diet knowledge I know now that this was wrong and unhealthy. Thank God I did not have the money to do that all tha time. Peace

You cant critique a diet without knowing when and where in a diet the training is chief. And if your training is anything like your diet, you need major help! Glad your apprecitive of the help though. Shows great character. You can kiss my ass on the way ouuuut...

Just a word of advice Daman is a well respected AR member that could help you as well. I would send him a PM and appologize. Listen to me Bro I was young and full of ballz just like you, but, you do not want to burn any bridges here...Peace

From a quick glace at your diet i can tell you that you arent getting enough carbs bud. When your young like me take advantage of eating lots of carbs. I find I gain WAY better when i lower my protein intake and raise my carb intake.

I was going to offer my thoughts, but after the blatant dis-respect shown, hell f*ck no.

Takes a lot to anger me, but smarting off to someone who just broke down your entire SH*TTY diet to help you, and went further by notifying you about training/cardio, is absolutely uncalled for. If you were to have done this at my board, I'd have banned you immediately. No time for these kinds of unappreciative kids.

Gearaholic is right, and you're attitude shows it. Research and come back in a few YEARS.

Thought the same my self.

back da f-ck up f-cker lol. daman1 is my boy. yeah he was only trying to help but i guess you really dont want alot of help. get some respect if you show it youll get it back, and you can learn a hell of alot from the guys here. i know i sure have

dont mean to bully up on anyone....im still new here but if pple are willing to reply to your questions you should be greatful. It would have been easier for them to just say i dont feel like replying and move on to the next post. Just saying to show a lil more appreciation JMO.

All good, he apologized in another thread and sounded sincere. Hopefully he'll read further responses in their entirety so as to avoid this type of occurrence again.
