    Peanut butter (4 tbsp) 380 32 14 16

    this isn't a meal, a meal for you should have 50-60g of protein and 70-80g carbs, fats will come naturally and before bed
    snack(approx. 4:00pm)
    chicken breast(4oz) 140 3 0 27

    double the chicken and banana at least

    whey protein (1.5 scoop) 180 1.5 4.5 36
    add banana/oatmeal/sweet potato some type of carb source around 30g

    whey protein (1.5 scoop) 180 1.5 4.5 36
    casein protein (0.5 scoop) 60 0.5 2 12.5
    Gatorade powder (3 scoop) 200 0 56 0
    2scoops whey, 3-3.5scoops simple sugar, i would go get some dextrose/maltodextrin, it's cheap
    Dinner(approx. 9:00pm)
    Chicken breast (8oz) 280 6 0 54
    olive oil (2 tbsp) 220 28 0 0
    brocoli (2 cup) 150 0 12 18
    brown rice (1/2 cup) 115 1 27 3
    double the rice, cut the oil
    snack(approx. 12:00am)
    beef jerky (1oz) 70 1 2 15
    almonds (1oz) 160 14 6 6
    double or triple the jerky
    before sleep(approx. 2:00am)
    Casein protein (2 scoop) 260 2 14 48
    all some fat here, you could add some natty PB to the casein, up casein to 2.5 scoops
    total 3,881 142 343 376.5
    less fat, more protein and carbs, i would go 420g carbs 380g protein 80g fat

    Drop your carbs 50 grams every week. until you reach how lean you want.

    After reaching the weight he desires, dropping some carbs to lower the BF%. Thats what I meant.

    Ooops, didn't notice its steel cut, the regular old fashioned oatmeal 1/2 cup is 27.

    yams or sweet potatoe has high molecular wegith strach in it that will help shuttle larger amounts of nutrients into the cells.
    it is up to 3000 times potent than dextrose.

    Most people don't use steel cut oats (although they are the best!) because they are not common in grocery stores and are more expensive... Normal, old-fashioned oats have the macros listed by smokethedays at half a cup...

    gatorade works, but there are far better choices like those listed by both Phate and smokethedays... Gatorade is loaded with sodium as well as sugars and the bulk of the sugar found in gatorade is high fructose corn syrup which not readily utilized by the body

    interesting, didn't know that. by potent you mean its effects on insulin levels? so you recommend to cut the gatorade and pound a sweet potato with my protein after the gym? thanks for all the advice.

    good advice, will change the gatorade. the sodium levels are high (96mgs/serving) but i figure that im depleted after the workout anyway. also, there is no high fructose corn syrup in gatorade powder (mostly sucrose and dextrose).

    could you delve into this a little more, im pretty interested in the topic of digestion(med student). gatorade is higher on the glycemic index than sweet potatos, so it should have a greater effect on insulin levels. which means greater ability to pull the sugar into cells for storage as glycogen. also, i can't find evidence that sweet potatoes have a lot of high molecular weight carbs. but, couldn't really find much in a quick search. found evidence to the contrary: http://www.ingentaconnect.com/conten...e?format=print

    Search Waxy Maize. This is the commercial name for Amylopectin, a high molcular starch found in Corn, Potatoes, yams.

    oh gotcha, a waxy maize supplement, yes it absorbs much faster than dextrose.
