Is my cycle ok?

[fbm]

nice one charger, I'm off out to the shops tomorrow to pick up next weeks food as i'm starting the new diet from Monday. I opted for chicken becuase its quick and easy to make and cos i like it but in a couple months i'll probably hate it so yeah i'll mix it up try and get a good steak in my diet every other day instead of a chicken.

As for eating before swimming i thought that was a bad idea? I have tried it before and was in the pool for 20 minutes before running to the toilet to throw up my bran flakes lol

The only meal i am unsure of is meal 1, i read it on the post you linked me too but not sure how to prepare it lol. With it being oatmeal i assumed it would be blended with the egg whites and whey protein. If possible i'd like to replace this to something with less hassle like a simple shake and cereal but i dont want to miss out on the benefits of the egg whites and oats if they are important?

lol yeah i know the feeling it takes awhile for your body a bit to get used to it, but if you have it first thing in the mourning there should still be bout halfhour before you start swimming, unles of course you own your own pool.

you dont have to follow it exactly if you dont like something change it, the main thing is to try and get good amount of protein and carbs in. i personally boil eggs and dont eat the yoke out of 2 of the 4 eat the oats with milk and have the protein shake on the way to work. for you you could use that shake as your post swim then once you have had your shower and that have your eggs and oats.

Made some minor alterations to my Diet plan and found out from all the packing what Protein, Carbs and Fat i will be getting. Added it all up and found the below results

Daily Total [P = 239g C = 380g F = 101g]
Calories [P = 956] [C = 1500] [F = 909] Daily Total = 3365

This is a big increase in calories from the diet i was on a year ago and I want to check if i got the ratio about right for gaining weight?

You did the right thing by coming on here first...Unlike me I used a bunch of stuff without coming on here first and then got my ass reamed out by these guys for what I was doing...But in the end everyone is here to help so listen to them they know what they are talking about.

you need to stop doing cardio when you are trying to bulk up!! On top of it I get the feeling that you do not even need cardio! at your weight I bet your metabolism is in overdrive. you need to just eat every 2 hours If what you are eating is not helping you to gain weight, keep adding calories 350-500 at a time until you start growing! Some people might not agree with me but with your metabolism I would say even throw some butter on some of your food! some extra calories from fat is not going to hurt you right now! It is just a matter of figuring out how many calories you are eating! from what you said i think you are only around 3500-5000day some people have to eat up to 10,000 a day!! Lot of foods high in calories that are not that filling. 2 bagels with butter and wheat germ is like 750+ right there! SO as someone once told me when I asked them how I gain weight They told me " eat til you feel like you are going to puke... and then... EAT SOME MORE!!"

The guy sure does learn fast. I have been reading this site for like 6 months and the quality info on here still overloads my brain.

This is definitely a great site.

Aggreed man. Just the stickies alone can get you through a week of good reading. Then trying to look at some of the diets posted by others really shows you how dedicated people are. Great site.
