How much do you...?

[NITF]

No, not "how much do you bench"... how much do you EAT? What kind of calories and macros are you taking in these days and why (cut, bulk, maintain)? Would love to see a simple diet breakdown of some WBB regulars and any other comers.

[Cards]

I don't know calorie intake, but today I ate....

blueberry muffin
2 eggs
3 pieces of toast
half a roast beef sub w/ fries
cheese stick
2 hardboiled eggs
2 hot dogs

currently making -
2 pieces of tilapia
1-1/2 cups of broccoli
1/2 cup (uncooked) brown rice
8-10 strawberries



I dunno, 2200 calories?

[Alex.V]

Today, which is a non-heavy cardio day....

1 cup oat bran with 1 cup or so mixed berries
1 scoop nitrean+
1 cup almond milk

1 vanilla biscotti from starbucks

Today, which is a non-heavy cardio day....

So I take it you cycle your macros/intake based on performance needs? any general rules you follow for this?

oh... and cow tales?

[Alex.V]

I generally try to take in about 50% of what I know I'm going to burn the next day if I'm scheduled for a 2+ hour workout. Typically this comes in the form of donuts.

Though extra beer is always an option.

And I do take in extra on the ride- gels, shot blox, promax bars, extra Results, MORE cow tales (http://www.candyfavorites.com/cow-ta...FQcFnQod-GZ6Vg)

It's pretty intuitive- if I'm hungry, I eat more. If I feel like I'm not recovered, I eat more. If I look like the michelin man, I eat less.

[NITF]

Oh! Those cow tales! I love those things!

[Behemoth]

Actually that has been my diet all week. Usually I have more variety but my girlfriend was sick last weekend.

[JacobH]

I take the Alex V approach, which I actually believe he stole from me in another thread and changed the wording a bit.

[yayeti]

How come you guys don't have much fruits or veggies? Do you think they're not that important?

[Cards]

Big fan of vegetables and fruits, especially carrots and broccoli. I just never bring them for lunch, so I try to stack up on them at dinner.

[tom183]

I didn't give specific quantities in my post but there is plenty in my diet.
