How is my diet?
I weigh 6’3", 200 lbs. I am fairly weak, even though I’ve lifted for 27 weeks. I’ve been off from lifting from last Tuesday, given the fact that I might’ve hurt it during a clean/front squat/push press hybrid.
I want to build muscle and strength.
I eat the following:
Breakfast
-4 pieces Canadian Bacon
-1 packet unflavored instant oatmeal
-4 oz OR 8 oz lean steak(rib-eye)
Snack
-1-3 oz Oberto’s Beef Jerky
Lunch
-can of tuna + 4 pieces whole wheat toast
Snack
-2 bananas
Dinner
-2-4 hamburgers(94% lean) on 2-4 whole wheat rolls
-spinach packet
-1/2 cup brown rice
Pre-Workout Shake
-1 cup skim milk
-1.5 scoops chocolate GNC whey
-10 blueberries
-1 banana
Post-Workout Meal
-8-10 oz of chicken, fried in olive oil
Pre-Bed Shake
-1 cup skim milk
-1.5 scoops chocolate GNC whey
-4-5 tbsp all natural peanut butter
-1/2 cup cottage cheese
This diet carries ~4000 calories with a 30/45/25 ratio of carbs/protein/fat.
I was criticized by a guy who used to lift 6x per week, 2 hours per day. He argues that I should not be eating so much food.
Note: I was working out on Homegrown Muscle Program, but I am going to switch to NROL: Constant Obligation program.
