Sorry,
I accidentally posted this in Nutrition.
My primary goal is to add some lean body mass, but before I do, I would like to get my body fat a little lower. I have found from past experience that I make much better progress when I focus on one goal (such as gaining muscle or losing body fat) as opposed to simultaneously trying to add muscled and lose body fat.
Current Stats:
Age ? 29
Height ? 6?0
BWT - 193
Waist 34 inches
Body Fat - @10-12%
Tomorrow I will post pics
My Diet for the next 4 weeks:
Training Day:
Meals 1 ? 4
40-50g protein
10-15g fat

1 Apple
Post Workout
75g carb drink
50g Protein Powder

Non-Training Day
Meal 1 ? 6
40-50g protein
10-15g fat

When possible, my meals will consist of solid food. However, I do have a hectic professional schedule and will occasionally substitute 50g of protein power and Flax Seed Oil for a shake.
My weight training will be as follows:
Cardio ? 45min x 6 days a week . First think in the morning Low intensity

Day 2 ? Chest
Day 3 ? Off
Day 4 ? Arms
Day 5 ? Legs
Day 6 ? Off

*No Sets to Failure
Given that my primary goal is to lose as much fat as possible before starting my bulking, I am not focusing on increasing my lifts during this 4 weeks but rater on keeping my current strength. I will also take these next 4 weeks to back off my squat weight and really focus on my form. I have had some back problems in the past. I will also be heavily focusing on strengthen my abs and lower back
Supplements:
I am currently taking multivitamins and vitamin C each morning.
I plan to include RedBands into the last 2 weeks of this program and will note the effect.
Any other suggestions?
