  • I had a really shitty gym session yesterday, the cherry on top was forgetting a 1.25kg plate on my squat, I wonder if the the bar being off balance was why I struggled so much (excuses). Overhead press is getting very hard, first time I've moved the safety bars right up! Deadlift with 2 plates is no joke, which brings me on to my next point.

    I've come to realise I'm not eating enough to be able to shift all this weight and recover in time. Something in my brain makes tracking impossible, I can hardly keep track of anything else in life. My new tactic is to record one day then replicate, so something like: breakfast (Skyr, Avo, toast, cottage cheese), lunch (eggs!), dinner (chicken/salmon/steak, lots of veg), desert/snacks (peanut butter, nuts)

    repeat that x7

    I usually have my creatine and clear whey daily.

  • Just my opinion but your gainz will be limited on that amount of food.

    Ideally you have the breakfast you’re having. Then the dinner x3. Finish with an egg white omelette before bed.

    This is my current plan. But ill at the moment so that’s fine out the window. I’m trying to do a slow cut hence not carb heavy.

    Pre workout shake: 6 egg whites, amino acids, creatine
    Meal 1: fruit smoothie with protein, amino acids, creatine
    Meal 2: chicken breast, 2xpoched eggs
    Meal 3: porridge 80g
    Meal 4: chicken breast with rice
    Meal 5: homemade burger 5% mince, low fat chips and salad.
    Meal 6: 6 egg white omelette

  • Bit of a light bulb moment this, have started tracking as was curious and I was nowhere near eating enough.

    Daily goal of 3300 calories with a 30/35/35 macro ratio. 270 grams of protein! Just trying to ease in but I actually do feel better!
