Hi Guys,
I'm just about to start a weight training program on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Split Routine.
Alternate days ie: Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday will be cardio days.
I'm 26. 168lb. 24% Body Fat and I'm 5'6".
According to the beginners diet 'sticky', Calorific need is about 3700cals on a training day. Apparently I should be aiming for around 200g of protein in my diet.
I've planned it all out as per the meal plan, and worked out all the nutritional data from the nutrition data website.
My diet is already at a daily 231g of protein, but I'm falling about 700 calories short, and I'm thinking if adding more protein is a good idea? One serving of whey will start to get me back up to the right calorie level.
Or should I be adding in some more carbs?
This is my diet plan as it stands at the moment:
Meal 1
1 Egg
56g Oats
(421 Calories, 18g Fat, 40g Carbs, 25g Protein)
Meal 2
1 Chicken breast
Rice ½ Pack Wild Rice
1 Medium Banana
(541.6 Calories, 6.8g Fat, 65g Carbs, 53.6g Protein)
Meal 3
1 Can Tuna
1/3 Bag Salad
Olive Oil 2 tsp
22 Almonds
(376 Calories, 24.6g Fat, 8.4g Carbs, 32.5g Protein)
Meal 4
Small can Beans
Toast 1 slice wholemeal
Whey 30g Serving
(346 Calories, 1g Fat, 41g Carbs, 38.5g Protein)
Meal 5 (PWO)
Whey
Glucose (Dextrose)
(427 Calories, 28g Protein, 80g Carbs)
Meal 6
Steak
Jacket Potato
Green Veg
(653 Calories, 19.5g Fat, 63g Carbs, 53.5g Protein)
Thanks for all the help so far guys
