trying to cut/increase muscle!!! help!!
Hello,
I just signed up to become a part of this great forum. Ive read many posts and admire everyone's dedication to fitness in general.
I am trying to cut my bodyfat over the summer; Ive been training hard for the past 3 weeks since Ive been home from school. I wanted to know if anyone had any input to help me reach my goal of being lean/cut, especially losing my lovehandles and "gut". I workout hard 4-5 days a week w/ cardio every session. Im currently supplementing my diet with Protein shakes and MaxLean thermogenic pills. My diet is a far cry from what it used to be, consisting mainly of protien shakes for breakfast, a light (sometimes) lunch, protein shake after workouts, light dinner, and protein before bed. My strengh has increased, as well as my endurance, but you wouldnt tell from my body type.
I want to know what y'all think about it - maybe provide some guidance to help me rid my body of UNWANTED fat.
Thanks.
6', 195-200lbs

Im 20 yrs young!!
Breakfast: Max High 5 Protein shake 2 scoops - 1 pill maxlean
Lunch: anywhere from turkey sandwich to ceasar salad to chinese food; ive really been trying to cut the carbs. 1 pill maxlean
1-2 pills max lean before workout, Protein shake after workout
Dinner: something along the lines of lean chicken/steak w/ veggies or salad, and maybe some low carb foods in moderation.
Snack: Protein shake.
I read in a few other posts that snacks/meals like protein shakes throughout the day are helpful. I work everyday - not very active (sitting in front of computer), so I am concerned about eating and not burning the carbs/calories, etc. What do you reccomend?
Strength is not really an issue - i dont want to be any "bulkier", just more cut
Thanx
