24 yrs. old, 5' 7", 170 pounds, 8% BF

I am very lean and want to stay that way, but also want to put on some size, without putting on BF.

6:30am - Glass of milk, multi-vitamins, vit c, vit B5, 5g of glutamine, hydroxycut (mainly to wake up)

8:00am - Natural whole grain oatmeal with a scoop of Penta Pro Protein Mix from proteinfactory.com

10:00am - Thing of cottage cheese or can of tuna

12:00pm - Pasta or brown rice and chicken breast with lil sauce

2:00pm - PB & J sandwich on 7 grain bread, using all natural PB. (Use very very lil jelly, just enough to get the PB from sticking to my mouth)

3:00pm - Protein shake

3:30pm - Hydroxycut (pre-workout)

4:00pm - Workout and 5g of glutamine

6:00pm - Cell-Tech (Post-workout)

6:30pm - 2 whole eggs and 4 egg whites with a tsp of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

7:30pm - 5g of Glutamine

8:00pm - PB & J sandwich on 7 grain bread, using all natural PB.

9:30pm - can of tuna or Protein shake (Night Formula)

I have also recently been eating a turkey buger (very low sodium)on wheat roll after my workout and then having the eggs about an hour later.

So what do you guys think?

Eat more for breakfast.

Remeber that you have been 'fasting' for approximately 8 hours....

The foods you are eating look decent, but your meals should be more balanced. I.e.; 10am can of tuna will give you 30grams of protein, but where are the carbs and fat?

[Smokey1856]

Hey Anthony,
Good point. So let's say, we put the tuna fish at 10am on 2 slices of wheat or 7 grain bread, will that help. What other suggestions can you make, thanks!

I also started snacking on some natural peanuts in between meals when I am starving.

To everyone, keep those suggestions coming, I appreciate them!

[Joe Black]

Yep I agree with Anthony too..

i.e 6:30pm - 2 whole eggs and 4 egg whites with a tsp of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Where are the carbs ?

I would try and do this..

Calculate your total carbs, protein and fat and calories etc..

Then decide how many meals you eat a day and try and even it out some..

Your sources are good, so you should have no problems with choice..

Hope that helps

Oh one more thing, you have a shake 3 times a day.. How about throwing some more meat in with one or two of thise.. Cook up a whole load of chicken so you always have some, or smoe beef, of turkey..

Just some thoughts..
