    I'm feeling pretty lazy at the moment, I got this basic outline going in 5-10 minutes. No, I don't love grits, just very easy to work with, rice is getting old and Oats as well. Probably need to alternate them regardless because looking at it, thats alot of ****ing grits. haha

    Tear it apart geniuses, help a fatty out.

    I don't know if you've read many of the previous posts, but we aren't big fans of fat supplementation. I would tell you to cut out those high fat meals and try to keep carb amounts steady in each meal. Also without knowing your body fat%, i would say stay away from whey unless you choose to use it PWO. As far as your grits go, which would be a cool nickname , i would switch most of those carb sources to potatoes. sweet potatoes have worked well for me in the past and are usually better suited for folks over oats and grits...

    Sent this as a PM yesterday but maybe posting it here will make it easier/quicker to answer:

    I'm 29 yrs. old. If I weigh 185 and my bf % is 20% then my lean body mass would be about 148? If correct then would my maintenance intake would be about 2000 for sedentary and about 2600 kcals for moderately active? these are conservative numbers to error on the side of caution (regarding activity)...

    My activity would be compound weight lifting 4 x a week(for MMA and muay thai purposes) am cardio and heavy bag work (daily) and plyometric exercises (occasionally).

    sounds like a good place to start. i have you pegged right around the 2700 calorie mark.

    Hello everyone.
    I'm having lots of trouble in my cutting thread
    http://forums.steroid.com/showthread...63#post3964263

    Here's my stats
    22yrs old
    Natural
    225lbs
    30%
    When you count the AMR via Narks way: (later on in the thread it is using overall mass)
    LBM=173lbs/78kilos
    *1.55
    = 3194.94 cals =AMR
    AMR-500=2684

    Here's the diet



    Meal 1
    ½ C oats 150 cals / 27g carbs / 5g Protein
    1 Cup of eggwhites 125 cals / 5 g carbs / 25g Protein

    Meal 2 PWO
    1C Oatmeal 300 calories / 54g carbs
    2 scoops whey 234 cals / 4g carbs / 48g Protein

    Meal 3
    Veggies
    12.5 oz Can of chicken / Tuna 300 cals / 0g carbs / 50g Protein
    ½ C Oats 150 cals / 27g carbs / 5g Protein


    Meal 4

    Protein=283g
    Carbs=117g
    Fats= 56g fat

    AMR (3330)-500=2830 kcal


    That's when I have no whey protein

    Now this is when it's available (almost same cals)

    Meal 1
    ½ C oats 150 cals / 27g carbs / 5g Protein
    1 Cup of eggwhites 125 cals / 5 g carbs / 25g Protein

    you want to keep carbs in every meal. so keep those levels steady. figure how many carbs you want in your day, and divide that by your meals. I'm going to guess and say it should be around 240g. you will get all the fat you need from your lean meats. you don't need supplemented fat. make every one of those meals a pro/carb meal and utilize the higher carbs to help you stay active and keep your glycogen stores at highest possible levels, allowing you to succeed in the gym.

    comment above in bold so after considering your carb sources you can repost the diet. i would also probably stick to sweet potatoes as often as possible but oats and rice work for some.

    I workout with weights 3x a week
    Chest shoulders tris
    Back Bis
    Legs

    Abs and calves twice a week

    5x a week cardio.
    After weights, I consume my PWO as shown on my diet post above, and directly go to 45mins cardio (usually elliptical).
    On non lifting days, 60 mins cardio.

    you should do your PWO cardio immediately after training and then have your PWO shake afterwards. and when are you doing your cardio? am moderate-rate cardio? or otherwise?

    little more info. age, bodyfat% training experience.

    no reason to get sloppy with a bulk, even if you can cut easily.

    Not the type of dieting style we're proposing...

    You're not at the stage yet where it would be applicable.

    No flame of course, just an explanation.

    First step?

    Get your bodyfat down to a manageable percentage: 15% is your first goal.

    Additional thoughts:

    Adjust kcals to support LBM solely.

    2400 kcals is a pretty good place to be.

    Too much fat in one meal.

    Spread your fat intake over the course of the day.

    You haven't listed the fat amount in this meal.

    Oats contribute some fat.

    Again.. you've understated your macros.

    Almonds = overkill.
    I don't think the carb total will be 'minimal' either.
    Fat is understated in this meal as well.

    Bump the cardio to 30 minutes.

    Bump the a.m. cardio to 45.

    Decent.

    Again you understate the fats.

    There are there though.

    Your entire kcal spread will require readjusting.

    Your protein is understated... as are your fat totals.

    Count each gram of protein.

    Count each gram of fat and carbohydrate.

    You are not doing this currently.

    Hello bros. Great thread. Thanks for the effort you are putting into it. I finished my first deca and test prop cycle about 4-5 weeks ago. At least for me I was happy with the results. I have dropped 20lbs since the cycle (high was 240 lbs during cycle) ended but do not feel I have lost muscle. My goal is to have more of an athletic/swimmer's build than have huge muscles. That being said, here are my current stats:
    42 years old
    220lbs
    6'-4"
    I don't know all my measurements, but my chest is approx. 47"
    Body fat (taken by gym worker) = 18.5%

    I have attached some pics as well. The black and white ones were closer to when my cycle ended. The color ones are from this morning. In addition to diet advise, I am also trying to plan my next cycle. I have enough test prop to use it again but need suggestions as to what to add to it.

    Here is my current diet.

    Fat Carb Protein Cal.
    Breakfast 32 60 46 720
    8AM:6 eggs, 1 cup oatmeat

    Snack 6 3 19 147
    11AM: Starkist Tuna pouch, 1 tblsp mayo

    Lunch 3.5 33 32 280
    1PM: Chicken breast and 1 cup brown rice

    Snack 6 3 19 147
    4PM: Tuna puoch and 1 tblsp mayo

    Shake 19.5 76 35 590
    6PM: 1 scoop whey, 2 tblsp peanut butter, 1 banana, 1 small low carb/sugar yogurt smoothie

    PWO Shake 2.5 5 20 130
    8/9PM: 1 scoop whey

    Dinner 3.5 50 35 228
    9/10PM: Chickenb breast, brown rice, broccoli spears

    Totals 73 Fat, 230 Carb, 206 Protein, 2242 Calories

    I look forward to your comments and suggestions. Thanks.

    Got one for you guys.

    I'm 26, 180lbs., 15% BF. I've been out of the gym for 3 years due to broken bones, and have dropped 15 lbs and added an extra 5% BF. I basically have a desk job, but currently work out 5 times a week (little to no carido). I'm looking to add lots of lean muscle mass and gradually trim off body fat.

    I calculated my BMR using the KM method and came up with 1869 cal. My TDEE is 2570 cal using 1.375, or 2897 cal using 1.55. I figured that since I had a mostly desk job I would figure my diet on the 1.375, but correct me if I'm wrong.

    Here's the new diet:

    Meal 1 (has to be quick as I'm not a morning person) - 7:00 AM

    Leave carbs + fat where they are.

    Slash protein.

    Too much protein.

    Slash protein to 190 gr.

    i.e. 35% of 2160 kcals.

    Add a GDA to your supplements if you aren't using one currently.

    I'd split the carbs over the 4 'meals' equally...drop the mayo and whole eggs and add fish oil.

    OR... Drop the mayo, and add a whole egg to each meal to make the fat requirement.

    You'll get the satiety of fat as well as the numerous other benefits without overshooting your kcal/fat allotment.

    Seems like you're just indiscriminately piling calories in to be honest...and that's not what this thread is about.

    Your kcals are in the middle range right now.. I'd lower the fat however, putting your kcals on the lower end of the spectrum.

    Your fat intake is around 30% of total calories..which is kind of on the high side.

    I just wanted to give a quick shot out to Nark and Nova. For anyone who is considering the low-fat, adequate carb style of cutting, DO IT!!!!!! I have gotten as much out of 5 days of utilizing this method as about 1 month of the traditional low carb method. Plus, I havent lost any stength or intensity in the gym, im not starving all the time, I dont feel scrawny and weak, and Im not pissy all the time like I usually am when cutting. Bottom line, this is the only way to cut and it is the only way I will be cutting from now on.

    This was suppose to be a cutting diet, but after I read that you guys recommend that I use LBM to calculate my macros, my question now is would this be suitable as a steady gain diet. Not necessarily a bulker.

    as far as carb cycling is that like since i need 206 carbs i would do that one day and then say like 100-150 carbs another day?

    thinking of using clen after a month or so into diet

    Too many calories.

    LBM = 136 lbs

    2k kcals is right around where you should adjust your diet for your goals.

    Not too high... Not hypocaloric either.

    2-3 hour workouts + cardio?

    Er... why?

    Monumental error.

    Something like that.

    I don't think you're at the stage where it's either necessary or feasible to implement this as yet however.

    You misread.

    The goal is to facilitate a slow and steady trickle of insulin.

    Not to keep it 'spiked'.

    Above a specific threshold, insulin redirects nutrients towards fat cells.

    We want to avoid this by keeping a moderate but steady trickle.

    Trickle.

    Not spike.

    A steady state is achieved through the regular ingestion of low-GI carbohydrates.

    A vacuum.

    Your calories are way too high.

    Unless you're a gymnastic construction worker who bikes to and from work, I can't see how you could possibly need or utilize 4700 kcals.

    My weight and LBM are higher than your own... and I don't consume more than 2400 kcals myself.

    Unless you're a gymnastic construction worker who bikes to and from work, I can't see how you could possibly need or utilize 4700 kcals.

    That leaves you 8 weeks.

    If you do everything right that'll be 12-24 lbs of fat off.

    Kcals being spot on... Let's review your food choices...and combinations:

    Meal#1
    6 egg whites... 30/0/0/102
    1/2 cup oats... 5/27/3/150
    total... 35/27/3/252

    Meal#2
    2 can tuna... 50/2/2/300
    1/2 cup oats... 5/27/3/150
    total... 55/29/5/450
    Spread your macros equally over the course of the day.

    That's too much protein.

    And again.

    I'd add another meal so you could spread your protein more equally

    7 meals would put you @48/gr protein per meal..

    Instead of 30+ in some and 50+ in others.

    Also.. it's allow you to spread your fat intake better on the last meal.. by allowing you to spread it over two.

    Sorry about the PMs mate.. I get some weird ones, so i turn 'em off.

    It's turned on for guys who're on my friends list though.

    re: workout thread.

    I'd love to.. but honestly i wouldn't be able to keep up.

    Had to take some time off from this thread because of my client load as well as my work load at school...

    I'm back now, since my last exam ended today.

    We'll see however.

    Thanks Nark! It is greatly appreciated!

    nark, would you suggest lowering my protein intake per individual meal? say, instead of two cans of tuna, make it one and a half? also making the 7th meal of about the same amount or just add a 7th meal, of the same amt. of protein, same as the other meals?

    nevermind... i think i get it now.

    Do you have any day completely 'off'?

    How is your cardio timed?

    Lay out your split on a day-to-day basis.. Thanks

    Um... Big order there.

    You'll be using anabolics I assume?

    I'll wait for your answer before I supply a reply of my own.
