[irishpowerhouse]

thats a pretty strict diet,looks really good. is it hard fitting all that in everyday

[Vancha]

It's not hard, it's just that sometimes I can't be arsed making it all. I'm on my holidays from college now anyway so when I go back I'll probably have to be a little less strict with it as I won't have time to make it all.

2:00 pm- Protein shake or bar

5:00 pm- (pre-workout) 150g of chicken or lean steak w/ 1 serv. of veggies or 2 or 3 egg beaters with 1 serv. of veggies.
