Im 5'8 154 and im about to start my cut for a competition in march. I just need some ideas on how many carbs a day I should eat besides cheat day. and how often to do cardio.

my current diet revolvs around: egg whites, greek yogurt, chicken, turkey breast, oatmeal, whole wheat bread, flat outs, tuna, natural PB, fish (tilapia, tuna steaks, cod), brown rice, sweet potatos. and obviously I eat other stuff but thats the basics and the majority of my diet.

i would recommend doing some research before taking on a full prep.

start w/ the comprehensive precontest article sticky at the top of this section...that should at least get you going in the right direction.

^^^ Yes. Read, read, and read some more. Hiring some prep help would really be super beneficial to someone just starting out because no one will be able to accurately answer your question without working with you for a while and seeing how your body reacts to different calorie intake and macro ratios. Its simply a trial and error type of thing....
