Is my diet as important

[Smithy1980]

Hi guys I was wondering is what I eat as important training on a cycle . As if I wasn't on a cycle.



I'm 32 aprox 78kg..5'8 wiv a bit if gut. 32 waist. No abs showing

I currently have breakfast in morning cereal normally wiv a shake .. 6am

During the day I'll eat 2 half chicking breast wiv a shake .

Then I'll have a meal before and after training . Normally chicking n veg or but if fish plus shake again .. Then a snack before bed

.. Any help would b good

It doesn't look like ur eating enough. Have you worked out how many calories you are taking in? I'd add up ur cals from chicken, veggies, shakes, etc and see what the total is. If those shakes are big it might be enough for maintenance but not to grow. I'd guess u should be around 2500 for maint based 175 lb body weight.

Yes or else you're pretty mcuh wasting that cycle IMO

If you do not eat for your goal, you will get nothing out of the cycle. Steroids are completely worthless without the diet to support it. Muscle is built from food, not AAS. If there is not enough food there, your body will not build muscle....period.

You sound like you lack experience which is another reason to stay away from anabolics.

I'm seeing an awful lot of shakes, and not a whole lot of food. How are you building any muscle on or off cycle without eating? Like others have mentioned...figure out your macros in accordance to gain/loss, and what you want, and then...implement it!

I tell you what has made a huge difference for me in my diet i use at work. I bring a dozen hard boiled eggs every night, no need to heat or cook, just peel and eat. And i also eat 2 helpings of greek yogurt also. Easy protein and also a good source.

First off, what are your goals? Are you trying to gain or lose?

Second, I'll ask the same question I ask everyone else when it comes to diet. What are your daily macros? What is the caloric number? Protein? Fat? Carbs?

^^on that last note, I find that most people are just guesstimating, and by doing so, are doing yourself a great disservice. If you have a specific goal in mind, you train in accordance with that goal right? Well, you must eat in accordance with it as well.^^
