Thread: Hows this look for a beginner?

when bulking I have 300-400gr protein, 500-600 carbs and 100-150gr fat/day. you need to eat to get big.

Im ecto but put on fat over the years, got a rubish metabolism because of not eating right been on other forums before this and got told I need to cut but I was allmost underweight so im geting some muscle for now and then cutting later

quick question
is it true ectomorph beginners see better results on 3 day workouts rarther than 5 day?

Can I workout after breakfast rarther than take a post workout? I mean I have oats for breakfast with a whey shake, if I wait an hour and have some fruit and green tea or something with caffine and carbs can I workout?

Morning: 1 scoop whey/water
Breakfast: oats
Brunch: some sort of high protein bean or leagume (make sure it has carbs and protein in it) have some bread or smthing with it
PWO:2 scoop whey with creatine
PWO Meal: Lean meat with something like brown rice or same as brunch
Dinner: same as above but bit less
Later on: Oats
Later on: more oats if still hungry or nuts like almonds or peanuts
Before Bed: cottage cheese maybee 1/2 cup or more depending on macros

I usualy change it around a bit with eggs and meats and fish but thats what it basicly looks like geting a bit under 3k cals in me every day diet doesnt change on off days.

You should adjust your pre and post workout meal. you need fast digestive meal after workout. but you are eating complex carbs with meat. Read more details about pre and post workout meal. Hope this will work.
