Tryin to shred! Is this the right Diet?

[submissionman]

I have revised my diet a few times, tryin to figure out what works best for me. I would like to be shredded as possible, so I want to eat clean as possible. Please critique as much as possible.

Wake up-cardio for 45 min.(65% of max hr)

Meal 1
6 egg whites/2 whole eggs

Meal 2
10 egg whites/1 cup oatmeal

Meal 3
Protein/flax shake

Workout

PWO
Protein Shake (40g)/Dextrose(75g)

PPWO
6 oz. chicken breast/1 cup brown rice

Meal 5
6 oz. ground beef (96% lean)/ 1/2 oz. almonds

Meal 6
6-8 oz. Salmon or Fresh Tuna/ veggies/ 1 tbsp. flax oil

Meal 7
35 g Casein protein/2 tbsp. natty PB

Bedtime

i would add carbs to meal 3 say whey pro (.2g Per lb of LeanMass) and maybe 1 cup chopped oats mixed in shake w/ it because i feel carbs are more benificial for resistance training than fat.
as far as proper macro i dont know... need stats to figure proper caloric intake.

6 egg whites/2 whole eggs

GOOD, HOWEVER YOU MIGHT WANT TO ADD A FEW MORE EGG WHITES. THERE IS 3 GRAMS OF PROTEIN PER EGG WHITE.

Meal 2
10 egg whites/1 cup oatmeal

I RECOMMEND DROPPING THE OATS AND SUBSTITUTING FOR AN EFA (FLAX, ALMONDS, NATTY PB etc.) VEGGIES??

Meal 3
Protein/flax shake

GOOD. VEGGIES?

Workout

PWO
Protein Shake (40g)/Dextrose(75g)

GOOD.

PPWO
6 oz. chicken breast/1 cup brown rice

GOod.

Meal 5
6 oz. ground beef (96% lean)/ 1/2 oz. almonds

GOOD BUT I THINK YOU SHOULD DROP THIS MEAL IF YOU CAN.

Meal 6
6-8 oz. Salmon or Fresh Tuna/ veggies/ 1 tbsp. flax oil

AGAIN GOOD BUT I THINK YOU SHOULD DROP THIS MEAL.
Meal 7
35 g Casein protein/2 tbsp. natty PB

YOU SHOULD UP THE PROTEIN IN THIS SHAKE, ADD A SCOOP OF WHEY OR SOMETHING, PB IS GOOD.

I think you should drop 2 of those last 3 meals after your PPWO meal. Thats a lot of KCALS for someoen who is looking to cut. Make sure you get plenty of green fiborous veggies as well.

Having carbs in your pre workout meal has absolutely no effect on your workout. It takes 3-5 hours for a low GI carb to have an effect on a workout.

eating frequently helps to maintain muscle mass while upping metabolic rate... couldnt he just reduce the size/content of the meal instead?

I know what eating frequently does, but eating too much will not help him obtain his goals. He could keep the meals if he wanted to but decrease the kcals in each one of the meals.
