Hey, I always worry about HIIT in a morning, with respect to loosing muscle. I run 5 days a week, low intensity for about an hour on a empty stomach. On days I don't weight train I do some HIIT in the evenings.

Your diet looks good. Plenty of protein, lotsa good fats. One thing I would say is avoid the rice cakes with ur flax. When I cut I NEVER mix carbs and fat. I only have my protein and carb meals in the morning and Post work out (PWO shake and then a statchy carb meal, as you have done).

Have you worked out calories? and a macronutrient break down?

to me mate it dont really matter when u have your flax,as long as u have it.

others might disagree,which is good as this is a disussion forum,and everyone has different thoughts.

i actually use olive oil now instead,abit cheaper and just as good.

whats everyone elses thought on this.

how much weight have you lost each week?

2lb a week is a good amount

are you using any supplements aswell.

I have lost 3lbs but i think this may be water as i am giving the creatine a few weeks off, i start cardio properly next week

I am trying Tri-Endolean out, bit pricey but i will see how it goes, i have also been stacking this with green tea extract

Hey,

I have protein and fat meals every meal except PWO and the meal after (starchy carb). I use Holland and Barratt optimum oil blend, it has the same omega break down as Udo's choice but at half the price. Good stuff.

I use this on chicken salads (make a dressing), pour it on tuna etc. I guess you could have your flax with a low G.I carb.

Olive oil will not cut it. Olive Oil is a Monounsaturated Oil, while Flax is Polyunsaturated. Olive oil is a 'healthy' fat because it is mostly monounsaturated fat. BUT, it is a very poor source of omega-3 fatty acids, which you can get an abundance of from flax. It is the omega-3's that is causing such a stir. I use olive oil for cooking and salads, but take fish oil capsules/oil blend/flax oil for my omega-3's.

Hope this helps

Hey, I would estimate about 5 teaspoons on average. I sometimes take some fish caps aswell.

1 tsp = 10g fat - 1. sat
- 2 mono
- 7 poly

Tastes like crap - but hey, not in this game for the taste
