Hey guys , i'm not sure exactly what thread this belongs in but i'll post it here anyway. I've been training just over year , became sick , lost a lot of weight and i'm confused as to what i should do. I'm in perfect health now , no residual effects accept the loss in weight ( majority of it was muscle). I realize i should bulk , but i'm hesitant due to my bodyfat % which is relatively high at 15-17 %.
My stats : H: 5'9
W: 135 pounds
Bf %: 15- 17 %
For the last 3 months i've been doing and eating the following :
Meal # 1 : 8 egg whites , 1/2 cup oatmeal , tbls natural peanut butter
post-workout shake : 45 g whey
Meal # 2 : 6 Egg whites , 2 cups of broccoli or cauliflower , 1/2 cup oatmeal , 120 g tuna
Meal # 3 : chicken , turkey or tilipia , 2 cups of broccoli or cauliflower
Meal # 4 : Lean beef , Chicken or fish , 2 cups of broccoli or cauliflower or another Egg white omelette.
Meal # 5 : 1 cup 1 % cottage cheese , two tbls Natural peanut butter , 5-10 almonds.
I train 6 days a week running a 4 day split , chest/tricep , bicep/back , delts/traps.
if you need a detailed layout of my training i'll post it up. I train abdominals 2 times a week and usually include 3-4 sessions of cardio.
I'm currently supplementing with : whey , creatine , fish oil and a multi-vitamin.
Would you guys suggest i cut up to 10 % ( i feel ridiculuse even asking ) or clean bulk for a couple months ?
