Help with new lifestyle diet and training..

[crombie09]

Ok so the new job is pretty hard work. I work 10-11 hours a day with no real break besides being allowed to inhale food when I get hungry and its all in the 95-100+ degree heat. The boss has become more lienent with the food thing, I told him I need to eat about every 2.5-3 hours and he said its cool since he knows how important being healthy is to me.

So let me tell ya what Im doing now and you can critique it. I started making my own mrps, I consume about 2-3 a day for time saving purposes. This is what they look like.

1 scoop whey or whey blend (been rotating) -22-26 g protein each scoop
4-6 organic eggs (raw) -read tons of articles/ read testamonials about this and I think its ok to consume raw eggs
2 tablespoons of either natty pb or olive oil
1 cup instant oats
1 banana
1/2 cup 1% milk
a little chocolate syrup for taste
1/2 cup no fat organic, live culture yogurt

I eat either chicken (from rottisere spell check chicken) or turkey breast that I cook myself sandwhiches at work since they're fast. I use 100% whole wheat bread, the meat, fresh spinach leaves and spicy mustard/ no fat mayo.

I drink a half gallon of green tea everyday when I 1st get to work, consuming over a few hours time at most. I use 10 tea bags daily.
Im taking CEE at 6-8 grams ed
Fish oil at 12 ish grams ed
multi v pack, ginger root, milk thistle, vit c,
5 htp and super snooze with melatonin before bed
(soon as I get paid again Im going to get the bev vita pack, r-ala, alcar, gaba, nac, taurine, liver tabs, ascorbic acid (vit c) and some mag citrate)

-I was advised to quit taking all stims except for green tea and Im liking the way I feel without them


The whole working out thing. I dont get off till about 700- 730 and I like to come home, eat a little something a relax before I hit the gym. So I get to the gym at about 800-830 and stay for arond an hour. This is pretty hard for me. Anyone have a split that I can do like 3 days a week? I was thinking:

1-chest/back
2-cardio
3-shoulders/tris/bis
4-cardio
5-legs
6-cardio
7-off

Throwing abs and calves in almost every workout

If that works.....on days that I do only cardio can I still do a carb cutoff? I was doing it before this job and it was working great. I just dont know about rotating carb cutoff days.

Also what about drinking gatorade? Is it ok to drink? Its hot as phuck out there and I sweat like crazy all day. If its ok is there a certain time I can drink it or should I avoid eating foods with it since its high in sugar? I drink that half gallon of green tea in the morning, drink water all morning and afternoon then have a half gallon of gatorade in the late afternoon.

At home I eat the norm....chicken breasts, greens (moslty spinach) brown rice, protein shakes, ect.....

I know this is a shitload to read and if you got this far, you're awesome. If you respond to some of my questions, you're fawking awesome.

Thats a hectic schedule for sure. Keep nutrition #1 priority. Look into HIT, or DC style workouts. Quick, intense workouts.
