So i read the write-up (very informative) and i was just wondering if i have the general guide lines down. I'm extremely excited since i'll be able to start HRT now that you put up a beginner/solo version since i've only been serious lifting for less than a year and rarely have a partner. Anyway here it goes...
I'm 18 years old weigh about 151 with a little over 4% body fat so i have about 147 lbs. of lbm
now for the sake of measurements i just bumped that up to 150 (mistake?)
well either way this is what i came up with per meal
protein- 37.5-50 grams per meal (probably gonna shoot for around 45)
carbs- 50 grams per meal (gonna stay closer to 40 since I'm just coming off a diet and i don't know how my body will react to all the added carbs at once since I've basically been carb free for a couple months)
spread over six meals- which i've been doing for months now anyway
so would this be a suitable day
meal 1) 2 whole omega-3 eggs, 4 egg whites, 2/3 cup of rolled oats (measured before cooking)
Meal 2) three scoops of Universal Torrent (covers the carbs but not the protein, should i also down 25 grams of whey isolate to make up for it?)
Meal 3) Chicken Breast (gotta measure out how much will satisfy protein needs) whole wheat brown rice ( again gotta find the measurements for me), green veggies
Meal 4) Chicken or White Fish, Brown Rice, Veggies
Meal 5) same as meals 3 and 4 haha
Meal 6) 48 grams of Casein Protein w/ one tablespoon of natty peanut butter
i know there are no carbs i meal 6 but like i said i don't wanna go crazy with the carbs since i don't wanna just put on fat, lookin for quality gains. also once next month rolls around i'll probably stock up on some real gains and substitute meal 4 for that to get some extra cals in me.
Also, do the amount of veggies (broccoli, spinach, cauliflower, artichoke, string beans, asparagus, garden salad) matter? the only reason I'm really eating them is cause i love'em so much haha. plus they help fill me up so i don't eat junk.
Also i know i didn't write it above but i might also sub in sweet potatoes for the brown rice on occasion. and once again i'll measure it out for me.
Sorry about how damn long this wound up being. probably should have just pm'd you, but hey maybe this could help someone else out too. Thanks in advance
