I’ve been reading the T-Nation articles for the past few months (this site is amazing!), but I just joined the forums. I just started training about 3 months ago, and was hoping that some people on here could give me some pointers.
I think my strength is OK (I realize there is a ton of room for improvement), but I think I’m really falling short on nutrition.
When I started 3 months ago, I was about 155 and over 20% body fat. My current stats are:
Height: 5’7"
Weight: 146
Body Fat: ~14%
My main goal is to add size and strength, but I’d like to get down to about 10%, if possible.
A typical day for me is:
Breakfast:
2 eggs / 2 egg whites
1 Ezekiel english muffin
kale and ginger juice
Pre-workout:
2 slices of Ezekiel bread, almond butter, and fruit preserve
Apple
Post Workout:
50g protein powder
Lunch:
1/4 rotisserie chicken
sweet potato
steamed vegetable
Afternoon snack:
Almonds
Dinner:
1-2 cups of shredded chicken
rice
Before bed"
50g casein protein
If there’s any more details I’m leaving out, please let me know.
Thanks,
Bob
