220lber bout to take first cycle. Diet Questions.

[Iceman69]

Hey guys. I'm about to start my first cycle based on the "Cycles for Newbies" thread using 500mg of Test E per week for 10 weeks.

I've been training hard for several years, and my diet is currently good enough to keep me at 6'3 220lbs pretty solid. I've obviously hit a plateau, which is what has primarily motivated me to hit up a cycle.

My current diet looks something like the following:

8am -
Oatmeal with strawberries
Orange juice
water

11am -
Protein shake - Myoplex deluxe, with 1 banana, 1 giant scoop of peanut butter, I use water (I can't drink milk unless it's soy)

1pm -
Chicken Breast, cup of fruit cocktail, water

3pm -
Steak and veggies

6pm
Protein shake, similar to the above mentioned

9pm - Chicken, Salad, glass of soy milk

-------------------------------

That pretty much keeps me at 220.

I'm benching 245 for reps
Squatting 275 for reps
Curling 115 for reps
Barbell rows with 175 for reps
Triceps are just a tad stronger than bi's.

My goal with this cycle is to get as close to 235lbs as possible. I'd be very happy just gaining 10 solid lbs and hitting 230.

---

Any suggestions, recommendations are much appreciated for my cycle diet.

I know I'll have to up the calories/protein but not sure exactly how much I'll need to.

Thanks fella's

To be honest, that's a horrible diet. Please check this out before starting your cycle:

With a good bulking diet and a routine that works for you, you should be able to get some good gains naturally again. Come back with a new diet when you come up with one..
