Diet critique? first cycle....

[robert93710]

I am 50yrs old and have been working hard for over a year. I work out 5 times a week 1-2 hrs a day. I think I am getting my food intake sorta in order? I posted a question about first cycle and was told to post my diet here so they could take a look at.
first thing in the morning I have protien shake with honey and take vitamins.
breakfast is four eggs two english muffins with honey and a small bowl of oatmeal.
two hrs later I have a can of tuna with mayo and fruit.
next I have cottage cheese with pumkin seeds and raisens.
next I have chicken and rice with a protien shake.
then I have a protein shake and a banana or bagel before workout
after workout I have a protein shake and a plain bagel with honey.
then dinner (which is chicken or red meat with pasta or rice and sweet potatoes)
them I will have a protein shake before bed.
I also will have three to four hard boiled eggs a day and some nuts etc...
Sometimes I mix this up a little?
Sundays though...I cheat?
Thanks for any help....

Please look at other ppl's bodybuilding diets and post one. This diet is a lot of meals but they all look like what my mom made me during summers off school when I was 9 years old. I'm surprised your not having a nice big glass of Sunny D with your PWO shake or some apple sauce with your english muffins. Sorry, had to.

OP - Damien's not trying to offend you. He was being sarcastic to emphasize his point. You posted up your diet and asked for criticism - you may not always like what you hear. You should be thanking him for the excellent link he provided you with. Spend time learning from it rather then insulting well respected members of this board.

Brutal honesty - your diet is sh!t. I don't care how big the guys are who gave it to you. There are as many shakes as real food which is the first big outstanding issue.

English muffins? Bagels and bananas pre workout? Honey? This is not BBing food. I've posted my diet below as an example of a balanced, clean diet. I'm cutting, so calories are low but do take note of the clean food choices, combinations, meal timing, etc. All of this is important. Take it for what it's worth, my .02
