DIET:
(6:00 am)
• 4 aminomax 8000/1 protein shake with water
HIIT for 20 minutes (30 sec sprint, 90 sec jog, Repeat) x (how many mornings should I do this??)You can do this as many times as you want and/or can handle throughout the week; however, you should certainly give it rest the day after your leg workout.
which would be better to take before this morning run? the aminomax 8000 tabs or just the whey protein shake with water (100% gold standard Whey)?
(7:00 am)
• ½ Cup mixed whole oats
• Large table spoon of Quinoa
• Soy milk
100 mL
• Fresh fruit
1 banana & handful of grapes OR handful of strawberries
• 5 eggs (1 whole, 4 whites)
(9:30 – 10:00 am)
• Pasta
36 gr
• Chicken Breast 150-250g
(12:00 – 1:00 pm)
• 1 apple
• brown rice
34 gr / lentils
34 gr / 4 bean mix
200 gr
• Big can tuna (
185g: 36g PROTEIN, 5.3g FAT, 0g CARBS)
(3:30 – 5:30 pm)
• Steamed veggies with EVOO
1 table spoon max / 20 almonds / Mixed Veggie soup
(6:30-8:00 pm)
• Salmon (>300g) or Beef (>300g)
• Salad with EVOO
1 Table Spoon Max? & Vinegar
• Small serving fresh veggies with Quinoa
Mixed vegetable soup
Gym Workout (5 day split)
(9:30-10:00 pm)
• Cottage cheese
100-200gr
• Protein shake with ‘Light Soy’ and Water *Only after days with gym... (I know it’s bad to be having this protein shake right before bed because it spikes insulin levels like you mentioned, but I don’t feel like I’d be getting enough protein from just cottage cheese after my workout?) You can have as much Casein for a protein shake at this time of the day and it will not spike your insulin at all. Fast acting proteins like whey cause the spike, not Casein.
This is whey protein though, specifically 100% Whey Gold Standard: 24g Protein, 5.5g BCAA's, 1g Fat, 3g Carbs
Maybe i should look into buying CASEIN PROTEIN instead of whey? as im going to be going to the gym late most of the time anyway

*Reason for not having a huge focus on chest is because it’s out of proportion to the rest of my body. It’s hard to the touch when tensing, but not a good shape. Instead of being ‘Square’ it more so sticks out. I want to be able to shape it.
Before I started working out I was pretty fat and had pretty big man boobs, now my chest has pretty much all tuned to muscle but not a great shape...
