looks like a really clean strict diet for offseason...sure ull be able to put on weight with that?

[Lmg2701]

Total Calories are above my BMR so I think my weight will go up nicely. Basically trying to pack on lean muscle. I'll have one cheat meal a week as well. I want to put on weight, but I want it to be good weight. I'm tired of gaining 30 pounds and half of it being fat. I'll stick to this plan for a while and see how my weight progresses and I'll adjust everything as necessary.

Why corn? Just curious, it has the lowest quality nutrients you can get from a vegie.

[Lmg2701]

Corn because I like it! lol

It's GI was fairly low and it helped add to the mix for my vegetables.

[shortz]

Sounds good enough for me. Low GI makes it better than I thought.

Where can you find the quality of the nutrients and the GI index of fruits and veggies?

I use www.Fitday.com to get all of my calorie and nutritional content information but have never seen a website that gives the nutrient and GI index.

THX - :confused:

:agree:
I like the diet quite a bit! I think you have a well thought out diet. I think your strategy will work. Plz keep us posted on the any changes and tweaks you make to it. In particular the carbs. I probably would make the cheat meal a high GI carb.

I will try to get 8 hours of sleep every night. The fall semester is going to start soon so I'm going to workout only 2 days during the week and the 2 days on the weekends. I made it like this so I will only have to workout twice during the week while I have school. Also I am working out in the morning those two days during the week because I hate coming home from school and work around 5-5:30 and then drag ass in the gym. I'd rather wake up a little early and then maybe take a nap when I get home around 5-5:30. On the weekend I'll be working out more around noon or so but my meals will basically be the same.
