Post your ACTUAL diet for the last day/week

Really? I don't. If I find a guy the same weight as me and we do the exact same amount of work and eat the exact same amount of food I won't be able to build an extra 3lbs of muscle over the other guy in a set time period. Same with weight loss. The difference would be very small.

 

Though I agree with most of the things you say, I cannot say the same for this one. I have two friends that are roommates, when they first moved in together they were both 180-190 lbs. They ate the exact same foods, and the same amounts. One is now a 226lbs (stage weight) NPC competitor, the other is 210 lbs and in O.K. shape. They lift together, eat the same quality and quantity of foods, and each own online businesses.

So I must disagree, I believe that genetics are of the most important factors in muscle/fat ratio/gain.

P.s. Before you ask, no, neither are gay.

 

5.30am 6 wheetbix with 1 banana and some raisons or strawberries
black coffee

8.30am muesly bar

11am salad and 2 tins of tuna and a apple and can of baked beans

3.30pm apple, protein shake and tin of tuna and i try to drink 2 litres of
water everyday

after training 8.30pm salad with 2 cans of tuna or some chicken or
steak in the george foreman

10.30pm 2 cups of green tea

what do yous think, im not trying to gain weight or lose, just trying to rip up more but stay around the same weight. I weigh 73kg.

 

i feel good drinking lots of water cleans the system out, drinking so much water i may always be a kg or 2 heavy (just water weigh) can easily sweat it out at training. But if i have a weigh in coming up i cut the water down a few days before the weigh in.

 

How much water you retain doesn't directly depend on how much water you drink, but on your salt/mineral levels (osmosis will cause your cells to take in water or get rid of it). If your diet is good you will not retain more than if you drank less, you'll simply visit the toilet more often. If you eat loads of salty foods for example you could weigh a few kilo's more and look pudgy because you'd retain all the water.

 

Breakfast - Multi Vit, Omega 3 capsule, Whey Shake, 70g of oats, handfull of blueberries & a tsp of honey

Training

Pwo - Whey Shake, Banana & Satsuma (1 of each)

Lunch - Salmon with broccoli, carrots & omega 3 capsule

Snack - Handfull of almonds & blueberries

4 litres of water (so far, will probably be about 6 in a few hours).

Haven't had lunch etc yet.

 

This is spot on, thanks for sharing information like this.
Good folks here.

 

my coach told me drinking water is the best way to lose weight. Have you ever heard anyone say ''drink your diet away''. It flushes your body out. When i said i may always be a kg or 2 heavy, i dont mean because of water retention. Its more because i have a stomach full of water. Every litre of water you drink is a kg in weight, but can be easily sweated out.

 

so what do yous think of my diet??

its one area im always trying to improve, open to any critique

 

7.30 - Oats with skimmed milk, 2 boiled egg whites

10.30 - Tuna baguette, coffee

2.30 - 2 wholewheat pittas filled with chicken breast, red pepper, tomatoes

5pm - wholewheat chicken breast sandwich, coffee

9pm - 2 chicken breasts, broccoli, green beans

10pm - 1% fat yoghurt, cup of tea

i also drink quite a lot of water, enough that my **** stays clear the whole day

 

Where's the fat? You need healthy fats like nuts, olive oil, legumes, etc...

 

Let's not have my egg yolk rant for once.

 

He's probably cutting weight...not uncommon to eat like this a week or 2 before a fight or tourney.
