I don't really have a specific diet that i follow, i try and eat as much as i can as i said i do have a high metabolism so i tend to get full up quickly, but hungry often...
for example today i had 2 bowls of bran flakes for breakfast with orange juice, dinner was only a set of sandwiches then a quick fix of beans on toast when i got home lol, tea i had spaghetti bolognese with mixed veg... now im having a smoothie i made throwing a fair bit of fruit and small amount of yogurt in with...
I am still quite novice about understanding workouts and dietary as i have been told conflicting things buy different people about what to do, and i know everyones body is different... however although i struggle with some of the weights i don't really feel it the next day, especially with arms.... |
