Well I'm going on a cut soon, and I have it all pretty much laid out. I'm basically doing this because I was thinking of doing a show and at my current weight I think I should lose a little fat before I do a pre contest diet.
I'm currently 5 foot 8, 210 lbs, BF=around 15% give or take a percent
It's a crab cycling diet and it goes:
2 High days: 200-220 g protein, 350-400g carbs, 0g fat
2 Med Days: 250-280 g protein, 200 g carbs, 20 g fat
3 Low Days: 250-280 g protein, 100g carbs, 20 g fat
Food options are:
Top round, Chicken breast, EVOO, Broccoli, Whole Wheat Pasta/bread, sweet potatoes, Rice, Tuna, Spinach, Salad, Oatmeal, Egg Whites, Almond Butter.
With 30 minutes of cardio on the low days, and weightlifting 5 days a week focused on Deadlift, Military, Bench, Squat, and Arms/extra work.
The problem is, it will be really difficult to get all that protein in using only 70 dollars a week, I think. Plus having a protein supplement would be convenient here at college. So I was thinking about getting a good protein supplement to get about 100grams a day from to make it easier to get my goals, or maybe only 75grams, and maybe getting some waximaize for pre/post workout. I don't want to spend more than 100 dollars a month on these supps. My real question is how much protein I should be getting from the powder/ some recommendations.
I figure 1 tub of Nitrean=63 dollars after shipping, and about 75 servings a tub. But I couldn't even get 75Grams of protein a day from it for a month. So maybe you guys know of another option.
