my diet

[strat_69]

Ok I just thought I'd get a couple opinions about my diet. This is basically what I eat in a day and it changes some each day but it's comparable.

Breakfast- 4-6 eggs, French toast (with whole wheat bread), milk sometimes a piece of toast and an apple or something instead of the french

Meal 2(between classes at school)-half of a shake consisting of 3 scoops on vanilla whey protein, 1 banana, and 1.5 cups oats, and a small bit of ice cream for flavor's sake, all blended with milk.

Lunch- Roast beef (or ham) sandwhich or ground beef patties on wheat bread with an apple and milk

Meal 4- other half of meal 2's shake

(foods and housing class is right now before I lift so I sometimes will eat something in there depending on what we make or what I can get out of the fridge)

2:30 is my workout

then after that I have Meal 5- post workout shake weightgainer of some kind like whatever I have usually around 50g protein and 100g carbs

Meal 6- an hour later usually a meat sandwhich maybe with a little whey protein and fruit

Meal 7- whatever my mom makes I try to keep everything sensible though as far as carbs cause it's evening and everything

Meal 8(before bed) I usually gulp around 6 eggs, and eat some meat like some ham, chicken, beef- whatever's around, sometimes I take some whey protein with milk along with the eggs but I'm doin zma right now so milk=calcium so not good

Meal 9(3 in the morning) 2 scoops ON whey in milk

at fitday.com this came out to let's say.. 380 carbs 300 protein and 110 fat I think and maybe 3800 calories.

I drink water throughout the day between meals, take a multivitamin in 1/3 pieces every day, just started doing zma at night, and have been on creatine for 3 days so we'll see how that affects my progress.

My training has been split between 3 days a week one set of everything like I found on bodybuilding.com, every set to failure with maximal weight for 2 weeks, then 2 weeks of split training with like 16 sets per day give or take then back, now i"m moving on to do a little different stuff so we'll see, I'm a football player so I have to make sure to do speed and quickness training which I'll do a lot more of closer to the season, now i"m working on mass though. I usually play basketball or run or whatever a couple times a week. I want to get big but quick for football (I play center and nose guard) and then after next year I'll just get as big and ripped as possible I spose.


Right now some of my stats are 5'10.5" 185 lbs maybe about 13 or 14% body fat and holding a little water too I think

Chest 43 1/4
Quads 25 and 25 3/4
Arms 14 3/4
Forearms 13
Neck 16
Waist 33 (top 4 abs are showing pretty well)
Calves 15 3/4 and 16 1/2

so far I've gained around 10 pounds in the last 6 weeks and all my body parts have gone up give or take an inch chest 3 inches was the big one and I look a lot bigger I've been told. One of my friends asked me if I was doing steroids so that feels good. I don't know about my maxes but they've gone up also. I'm doing 185 for 7 or 8 reps on bench and 245 for 10 on squat to name a couple.


So there's my diet and some background, I'd just like to know if there's anything I should do different, maybe more oatmeal for carbs or something.. I don't really know but I'd like an opinion to see if there's something you'd do different or change around. it's hard to get in a solid meal cause of school keep in mind but other than that I'm up for lots of things.

Thanks

r u eatin 12 whole eggs in one day... yolk and white?

[strat_69]

yeah 10-12 should I cut down do you think?

[ROCKETW19]

10-12 eggs are cool but get rid of the yolks go with the egg whites and 1or2 whole eggs. the rest of the stuff wait for YJ to respond back he knows his shit.

if your 185 lbs you do not need 300lbs of protein.....from my understand you should consume approximately equal to your body weight....around 185g of protein give or take 10g regardless of whether you are trying to bulk or cut or whatever.....I could be wrong but that is what I've understood to be correct.....

i dont think doubling your protein is gonna drastically improve your muscle mass compared to consuming your body weight

try 2 scoops in your protein shake for example

[SloppyJo]

holy shit dude... do u know how much cholesterol your eating!!!! u need to eat about 2 yolks a day and then 12 whites is fine... 12 yolks is WAY TOO much.
and yea u dont need 300 grams a protein a day, u need to stick with 1-1.5 times your body weight (so b/w 190-260 grms)
and mix your whey with water not milk, it absorbs a lot faster when mixed with water
