Would appreciate comments on my diet that I’m about to start tomorrow. Was inspired by bartl et al on the physique clinic. FYI, I’m 26, 6’2" and 260 lbs @ 27% body fat. I was always overweight, and in high school dieted the wrong way but still achieved to cut down to ~12% body fat @ 178 lbs. Since then I’ve gained a lot of fat but also some quality muscle.
My goal is to lose as much fat as possible while preserving muscle with similar results as Bartl had on the physique clinic. My diet is as follows:
6:45am: coffee or tea
7:00: 60 minutes low-intensity cardio
8:15: . 3 omega-3 eggs (cooked in EVOO or coconut oil)
. 1 cup celery
. multivitamin, 2 omega3-6-9 caps, 2 CLA caps
. 1 scoop Isopure 0 carb protein shake
10:00: . 1 scoop Isopure protein shake
12:00: . 5 oz. chicken breast (cooked in EVOO or coconut oil)
. 1 cup broccoli
. 2 omega3-6-9 caps, 2 CLA
. 1 scoop Isopure shake
2:00: . 1 scoop Isopure shake
4:00: . 5 oz. top sirloin (cooked in EVOO or coconut oil)
. 1 cup lettuce
. 2 omega3-6-9 caps, 2 CLA caps
. 1 scoop Isopure shake
6:30: . 1 scoop Isopure
. 7 BCAAs
7:00: Weight-training for 60 mins followed by 30 min. moderate cardio
8:45: . 1 scoop Isopure
. 7 BCAAs
. Glutamine
10:30: . 1 1/2 scoop Isopure shake
. 1/2 tablespoon EVOO
Total calories: ~2400
Protein: ~270g
Fat: ~95g
Carbs: ~18g
And I might switch up the chicken and sirloin for turkey or tuna,salmon etc. but at similar portions.
And after about 4-6 weeks will alternate every other day low fat/high fat by replacing the fats with more green veggies on the low fat days.
I want to cut down to around 10% body fat before doing any more mass gains.
What do you guys think?
