Looking good.
Hows mine? Looks similar to yours.
Cutting with a moderate carb/moderate fat diet with protein set at 1g/lbm.
I aim for 1900 calories with,
140g protein
150g carbs
80g fats,
which is about 33%~ for each macro, similar to zone diet. Taken from one of Lyle's fat loss articles on his site.Current: 15% BF
Goal: 10 - 12% bodyfat.

In terms of timing
I usually have
1 milk + whey when I get up
2 bread + 2 pb A hour or so later
6 full eggs a bit after that
Some peanuts a bit after that
followed by a ton of rice before workout
1 milk + whey after workout
followed by the chicken + 2 bread at night
Bread is whole grain and rice is parboiled so its all complex
I'm still fairly new to the nutrition side of this, but hopefully paying more attention well get me better results.

Great thread dude,
I have to say though - I was totally one of those dickheads posting meal times and stuff.
Feel like such a douche.

Any advice ????
Hi I need your help please, Im 36 y old, 5 11" ... I went from 207lbs to 169lbs and keep going down! .. now Im barely 168 ... I do 6 days a week lifting with 25 min of cardio and 30 min of abs total time at the gym 3 hours .. I'm eating this
Morning Noon Evening
Cal 457 1,100 550 = 2 050
Fat 9 13 4 = 25
Carbs 11 22 2 = 35
Protein 82 215 101 = 398
My goal now is to start growing more lean mass ... I read something about a 2 week cycle...... 2weeks in low intake of food and lots of cardio , and 2 weeks high intake of food and just heavy lifting .. 2 for growing and 2 for cutting .. does this make sense? or any other advice?

I just signed up, and this thread makes me wonder there's a bunch of arrogant pricks who run this place and offer no help to newcomers who seek guidance/help. What an absolute shame and an insult to the forum. So what if a person asks a question on the diet he or she is following, if you've got nothing to offer..simply ignore. What's absurd is no moderator has taken any action on this thread despite a bunch of trolls who've jumped on the bandwagon of the OP. God damn..

Age: 22
Gender: Male
Height: 6ft 3in
Weight: 143lb/or 65kg
BMR: 1760 x 1.55 = 2728 calories needed if i go to gym 3 days a week (although currently i am sedentary most of the time and would only need 2200 calories daily.
Breakfast:
Weight Gainer: 650 cal
Banana: 105 cal
Milk Whole: 146 cal
Flax Seed Oil 1tbsp: 120 cal
Whole Eggs x2: 154 cal
Bread x2 slices: 138 cal

Whole Eggs x2: 154 cal
TOTAL: Cal: 631
Fat: 22.7
Carbs: 44.8
Protein: 56.6
Dinner:
Weight Gainer: 650 cal
Large meal of pasta/fish/meat any of that goodness with veg!
Milk Whole: 146
TOTAL: Cal: 796+

Carbs: 96g+

Grand Total Estimation
TOTAL: Cal: 3829
Fat: 104.0
Carbs: 258.3
Protein: 261
So basically that's 1000 calories over, which is a lot more than what i need, is that ok? or will i see more gains of fat than anything? Take into account the miscellaneous dinner meal also.
Pretty much i want to bulk up, but of course as clean as i can be, if you think its too much over what i need i can easily take stuff off of that list! If I've missed anything out or you have questions fire away!
Thanks, look forward to some advice =]

^^ you will gain fat.
No need to have an excessive surplus. Ditch the weight gainers and you will almost be good to go.
-
06-17-2011, 06:29 AM #166
thanks, that's what i wanted to know. how long should i give to see if i gain weight? And if i don't gain, just up the calories by a little? (I've been stuck at 65kg almost whole life!)
Another question, the weight gainer says it has 60g protein. If i take that out of my diet I'll be down to like 141g. I need about 214.6g of protein, any advice there? I'm guessing i need to switch out some of the carbs for more protein?
Thanks again!
*went to edit but i cant link my fitday oh well ;p i was thinking of removing some foods to allow me to use the weight gainer/protein drinkLast edited by silentdj; 06-17-2011 at 07:08 AM.

How many calories a day do I need to gain muscle mass? I've been doing 3500 a day. I'm a beginner and am basically just on a 3-days per week workout schedule that just focuses on compound exercises. Just wondering how many calories would be good.

Hoping to get some wisdom here
I'm 29 5'8 according to the handheld scanner thing 31% body fat, and anywhere between 202 to 205...varies, I'm skeptical of their scale
I'm doing a fitness boot camp 4 days a week, best described as a group P90X. Lot of body weight exercises, jump rope, burpees/pushups running etc. It's hard, I work hard,
When I started about 6 weeks ago I was 210 and about 2 weeks ago I made 197lbs went from a size 38 to a size 34 with a belt.
Ever since then I've been gaining weight, pretty certain it's muscle. One day I'm 204 or 206 or whatever, I drink a ton of water so my weight fluctuates due to water somewhat.
I was following recipies from Mens Health and I used the plate tracker to give me an estimate of what I needed for a 2lb a week weight loss. about 1600 calories, long as I stayed under 1800 I would be ok.
I was eating this for breakfast at about 6 AM everyday before my workout at 8 AM.
1 egg
1 cup 1% milk
3/4 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup mixed berries
1 tablespoon chopped pecans or sliced almonds
1 teaspoon vanilla whey protein powder
1 teaspoon ground flaxseed
1/2 banana, sliced
1 tablespoon plain yogurt

In a large bowl, whisk egg. Add everything else, mixing it--your hands are the best tool--until well blended. Form into four patties. Place burgers in a grill pan or nonstick skillet that's heated over medium-high. Cook 6 minutes per side or to desired level of doneness.

I thought I was doing ok, I showed this to the trainer, he suggested some changes. Replace milk with water. I did that.
So I began modifying the meals.
I took out the milk and the banana from breakfast. Began reducing the oats from 3/4th to now it's 1/3rd cup as I was told in no uncertain terms to get my carbs under 100 grams a day
For the wrap I took out the tomato they had and the horseradish and the whole wheat pita so it's now lettuce, roast beef and a little Greek.
yogurt
The burger remained the same other than switching it to lunch to prevent carb consumption after 1:30
I do changes and bring them in, they would make further tweaks, told to get salt under 1000 which is why I went from 3/4th oats to 1/2 cup to now 1/3rd cup. Went to one whole scoop of protein powder instead of a teaspoon
eliminating the horseradish which I had been using etc
So after entering all the revisions into the calorie tracker I come up with this.
New Totals
Total Calories 942
Total Fat 33 Grams
Total Sodium 989
Total Carbs 58
Total Protein 130
That brings my carbs and sodium into line with the goals they set. My protein is supposed to be 180-200 so they said. The calorie range he told me was 1600-1800.
When I saw my actual totals I kind of freaked and went to my gym and talked to a trainer. He suggested doubling the amount of protein powder in my shakes and use milk which brought my protein into line.
So I did that for a day, and then told them, they said cut it out. Real food is better than shakes...go back to water, 1 scoop
So that took me from 1463 calories down to 942, and 1463 seemed to be too low to begin with.
I'm now eating 2 cups of egg whites in place of the almonds
Now I'm at 1202 calories a day and 182 protein. So now I have my protein in compliance but my calories are like 400 below what I was told to have.
I'm eating 6 times a day.
I don't know if I'm ok on calories if I can get by on 1202 instead of 1600, If I'm not, I don't know what to do because I had to alter things to this degree to get my carbs down. With the egg whites my sodium went from 982 to 1782. Friend of mine said not to worry about that at all as the RDA is 2400MG for a male. The fitness class says under 1000.
Am I ok? Do I need to change something, If I do, how can I keep the carbs under 100...
Talking to my friend earlier today, he said on the days I don't workout I should consume 1 gram of carbs per pound of body weight which comes to 200, same with the protein which is so at odds with the trainers at the class...
My head hurts
I'm confused...somebody help

Hi can u help me with my diet? I don't have enough money to buy good food so i am eating what i can. If u can tell me is it ok to keep exercising intensively, and should i consume maybe less fat and carbs so i can balance with my protein intake. I am worrying about my protein intake. I am 180cm and 76 kg body fat 13%
I can not eat a lot of meat, and fish because i don't have money now to buy it, so until i get some job i am eating like this for few months.i want to grow bigger, and to have good abs but problem is protein intake, it's very low, should i be concerned or not so much?
11am 100 cream cheese with 100,200 grams of white bread(somethimes some salami or bacon with white bread or pastry)
3pm 2 boiled eggs
4:30pm training 1 hour
6pm 100 baked potatoes or white rice, 2 glass of milk 3,5% fat
10pm 4 fried eggs on lard fried
1am glass of milk, and some white bread, maybe some salami or pastry
Once in a week I am eating chicken meat or pork, beef, but only once in a week, lack of money. The good thing is i am eating a lot of fruits and vegetables raw, they r cheap, lot of tomatoes, peaches, cucumber, carrots and pearls through out the day. i am not eating cookies or drinking fuzzy drinks, only chocolate.Also tuna once in a week.
Thank you.
