I'm going to be keeping my protein intake high (shakes & Tuna etc..) with low carbs and fat, for example Breakfast:- Weetabix 10am - Protein shake Dinner - Tuna\Chicken\Salad 2:30pm - Protein Shake 4:30pm - Banana 5:15pm - Train - 4 sets of weights + 20/30 minute cardio 6:30pm - Omlette 9:00pm - protein shake I train 5 days a week, Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri and Sun. I take multivitamin's etc but no other supplements What do you think, any advice apprciated? Im a little confused as to if I should be keeping my carbs down or just my calorie intake overall per day, in comparison to what I normally take in? Im 24, 15st 9 and need to lose nearly a stone of fat I would think before Im cut. Cheers. |
