Hello guys and girls,
Have been trying to put together a cutting regime for the past couple of weeks and would be most grateful if you could give me some feedback on the following....
Before i start my stats are: 24yo 6ft 0in 81kg(179lbs) (ive got fairly decent muscle mass at present but too much belly/hip fat for my liking hence why i'm cutting)
2000kcal daily
180g protein = 720cals 37%
60g fats = 560cals 28%
175g carbs = 700cals 35%
typical day.....
wake
8am meal 1 – 2 (brown)toast 3 eggs scrambled
11am meal 2 – protein shake (cup of tea preworkout)
subtotal = 862cals / 30g fat / 80g protein / 60g carb
12-2pm walk to and from gym & workout
2pm meal 3 – chicken & veg / chicken salad / tuna salad (100g chicken/50g rice)
could also workout between these 2 meals??
5pm meal 4 – same as 3 (split meal 3 into 2) (100g chicken/50g rice)
total meal 3&4 = 700-800cals / 50g protein / 90g carbs / 15g fat
8pm meal 5 – protein shake
186cal / 36g protein / 8.5gcarb / 0.45g fat
10pm meal 6 – snack (cottage cheese/nuts/peanut butter etc)
200cals/ 10g fats?? / 10g protein ??
LOTS OF WATER!
In terms of my workouts i have started off down the HIIT route, which i am doing on the bike at the gym (approx 20 mins - 60secs on / 60secs off - hard work for sure!!)
Then onto approx 30-40 mins lifting with shortish rests between sets - 3 to 4 sets usually.. training 4 times a week
HIIT 20 mins bike 1on 1off
bench press
heavy deads / heavy squats
military press seated
ez curls
hammers
barbell rows
So what do you guys think? I'm a week in and ive lost a pound or so and feeling pretty good, but if you can see any glaringly obvious mistakes or little changes that could be made please point them out!
2 shakes a day too many? should i decrease 60sec intervals in HIIT?
THANKS DUDES
PEACE AND LOVE

In short- terrible routine, too much tuna (mercury poisoning), more meals than you need (eat as many or few as is convenient), calories low and no fruit/veggies really.
Short cuts to success are often paved with lies.
1/13/16: Massive hernia.
5/10/16: Finally back to lifting, light but improving.

In long-
NUTRITION
This is the largest factor in your success, learn the basics to get started and then move into more advanced if needed.

TRAINING
Start with a solid beginner routine, these are designed to get the most for you; they are designed by professionals and use progressive overload. Read through them and pick the one you like most, follow it as it is written.

SUPPLEMENTS
Remember one thing, supplements are only that; they supplement something and are never meant to be replacements. A multivitamin will not replace fruits and vegetables, a fat burner will not replace a caloric deficit, and a meal replacement is not meant to be your only source of calories.
This is a brief run down of the 'basics', for further breakdowns of specific ingredients (like Yohimbe, Forskolin, Glycerol, ect) more research on your part would be needed.

not being funny but did you even read what id put? total cals may be a couple hundred shy but surely not far off... i mentioned tuna once..and the mercury poisoning ****e is a myth... i know that much
no fruit and veg? i mentioned i'd be eating salad/veg daily and fruit very rarely as it's full of sugar!!
any decent feedback much appreciated but if you dont really know what youre on, keep it to yourself... tit
