Free Diet Advice from 3J

okay sure, but is it a good diet or no..do i need to add more protein?? more or less carbs..more or less fat??

again... put all your food into fitday.com and get back to me.. how would i be able to tell how much ur taking in.. u have no portions or macros up...
 
3J, I just read all 37 pages and found it all quite informative.

31, 6'1 183 11%bf

BMR - 1922 x 1.55 - 3,000

I completely understand +/- 500 for bulking/cutting 1 lb/week.

Assuming I was to bulk natural I would eat 3500 each training day and stay closer to 3,000 on non training days.

My questions is this, what would you recommend based on running the following cycle:

1-12 500 Test C
1-4 20-40 Dbol

Looking to gain optimal strength and size of course, but would also prefer to keep fat gain to a minimum.

so what do u think?

Thats a lot of sets and your doing a decent amount of cardio. I would suggest you post up your diet, BMR/TDEE (Formula can be found in first post of this thread)

I suspect if your working as hard as you say you are then your diet is the issue.

To save yourself an additional 4 or 5 posts after you post your diet. Post it up like.....
Meal 1
(the food you eat)
xx g of carbs
xx d of pro
xx g of fat

do that for each meal with totals

since ur gonna be working out your not eating enough... ull be starving urself..

add 400 calories...
20g carbs to ur pwo shake
and the rest fats... that should be roughly 35g of fats... use olive oil to cook stuff, that's the easiest way to get it in...

turn ur last protein shake into a casein shake
 
umm..im sry whats a casein shake??? lol...is it mixing it with milk or sumthing.

and oh yea what u mean soy is bad for me its the healthier milk...of orginal milk..lol
 
Last edited:
but he said "turn ur last protein shake..into casein shake" i do not know what that means, what ur talking about is foods with sources of protein. hes talkin about the protein shake.
 
lol u still didnt answear my question bro..that product is already casein. 3j said turn my protein shake in casein how do i do that??? what do i add inside the protein shake??
 
yes it is my diet to be honest wit u i dont really have a proper diet i drink protein shakes roughly 3 or 4 times a day and a casein before bed but aside from that i dont eat the way i probably should, what do u recommend?

For th kinds of foods you should be eating check out the first post of this thread. But the quantities and when to eat certain foods will most likely need to be tweaked. You can also figure out your bmr/tdee from the first post too. That will determine the amount of food your going to want to eat.
