why all that cottage cheese? I dont think c.c helps me at all...i feel better knowing i have 'cleaner' proteins like tuna, chicken, turkey.

i think your 1st 2 meals r fine.

m3; 8 egg whites and oatmeal
m4; chicken,and vegies (optional oats)
m5; tuna, flax and salad
m6;chicken/salmon/turkey and vegies
m7; cottage cheese and flax/or almonds


i personally think that looks better

Watch the carbs in cottage cheese. Plus watch out cause cottage cheese will cause water retention.

Thanks Crum.. I appreciate it.
I followed your modified diet... lost 15lbs over the course of 2 months, Only one cheat day and it was still a healthy meal
I think I lost some size though.. but then again, that's dieting.

I'll try and double up on everything in the modified diet to get those extra calories in when my bulking cycle approaches shortly... then i'll follow the "ultimate" diet.

Thanks again bro..

PS: How much Unsaturated fat should I consume for bulking? roughly 150-200 still? Of course there are other fats that tie in with each other, but trying to stay on course with the Unsat. fats.. what's an approx. amount to intake?

 

[acer290]

To bulk up just add more carbs in the postworkout timeframe and maybe even another carb meal after that. And up the protein.

Don't eat too many calories to start off. You need a surplus, but you don't need to be a whale, it won't help anymore in respects to muscle growth.

 

[acer290]

Unless you are juicing that is way too many carbs. Most people overtratin on that much volume even while bulking and considering you are cutting I can see why you get tired.

Plus, you are doing more sets for chest than back- do you want to be disproportionate?

You are sore because you do not have as many carbs for recovery.

 

[acer290]

Looks good although I would do one more set of either rows or pullups. Yeah, the number of chest sets are probably why it is so small. Ask around on the training board about your routine.

really? I thought it was protein that helped w muscle soreness. I have been having only about 30g carbs post workout, is that why my legs have been sore the whole week and i trained them on monday?

 

[acer290]

Well yeah, if they usually aren't sore when you eat carbs.
