So much great info...

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and have been taking in a lot of great information and advice!
I was 22 and 160 lbs when I started lifting. I have cycled a total of three times at the age of 25, 26 with test.e and deca...which bumped me up to 193lbs.
I am now 36yrs. old and learning more about food than i ever wanted to know!
183lbs.
5'11"
13% bf
I've been following a high protein, low fat diet.
Meal1- 6:00am .5cup of oatmeal,1/4cup raisins,one banana,bagel w/pb.
Meal2-9:00am 6oz.yoplait yogurt,1cup cottage cheese,4 egg whites.

Meal 5-6:30sh Protein shake (pro complex)or(nitro core) .5cup oatmeal.
Meal 6-7:30 8oz.steak or chicken 1cup veggies.
Snacks include cashews or high protein bars.
I want to cycle in a month with test.e and deca. followed with Nolvadex and Halodrol .
My last cycle was 10yrs.ago with no knowledge of anti-e's or what to eat.
My goal is to be a lean 195lbs. and I know there is a lot more I need to learn , especially about food !So i will end this by saying thanks to all for the great info.

Hey 3J question for you, since it nots good to eat ur fats with ur carb meal when will be the best time to take fish oil pills and flax seed pills?
 
In the evening usually at 6pm

spread it out.. do a little bit bfast.. a little bit lunch.. and a modest amount before and after your workout...

dont eat alotta fat and alotta carbs in the same meal.. thats what you wanna shy away from
 
need diet advice from 3J!

Hey 3J..

I need your help I have gathered all the info you ask for I hope. here goes.

Male.
38
321 lbs
6' 1/2"
BF 25% ( calculated from website so its probably more like 30%).
goal Is to get down to 250 and solid
BMR best geuss 2834
tdee 4818

I've been working out on and off since i was 13.. probably more off than on..hah.. but I have done gear probably about 10 times over the years, I am currently in 2nd week of TNT. I work out 5 or 6 days a week. the usual schedule. I think I train pretty hard when I do.

chest tris
back bis
shoulders forearms
legs abs.. sometimes abs thrown in on other days.
then start over after a day off
I have not been doing much cardio as I was way to heavy.. I have started to pwo cardio lately though and will do it more often and longer as i work my way back to shape

I have been on the ideal protein diet for 6 weeks prior to the last 2 weeks. I lost 35 pounds on that diet but I had to stop cause it wont work when your trying to build muscle.. so I want to keep losing as much weight as possible but not lose any possible gains from the gear as well.

I have no idea if im endomorph or mesomorph or what ever else there is.. probably endomorph as I battle my weight for ever, which is why i have worked out and done gear for so long.. but anyway. here goes with what ive been eating.. since i stopped the diet I have just been eating alot of chicken breast and steak and salad etc.. but the past 2months are as follows.

morning 8-9:30 am
Ideal protien shake 20/3/.7/100

lunch 12-2pm
Ideal protien shake 20/3/.7/100
2 cups vegetables(broccoli/green peppers/sprouts) 2.5/5.8/.33/29.9
lunch totals 22.5/8.8/.41/129.9

work out anywhere from 5-7pm for 1 hour

dinner right after work out
chicken breast or steak 5 oz. 8.6/0/.99/45.8
2 cups same vegies 2.5/5.8/.33/29.9
salad with no carb/fat/sugar dressing
dinner totals 11.1/5.8/1.32/75.7

snack 9-10pm
Ideal protein shake


I ate this everyday just changing up the chicken for steak or maybe some scalops.

let me know if this is enough info and thanks in advance!
