Thread: Any good?

I have been tweaking my diet following advice from on here. Can you have a look and tell me if I going in the right direction? I am a 27 year old male, 170 lbs, and trying to bulk using the MAX OT program. I am new to all this so any help would be greatfully received!

Meal 1 (6:30 am) Protein shake with a pint of skim milk (442 calories, 66g of protein, 33g carbs, 3g fat)

Meal 2 (9:30 am) Muesli with pint of skim milk (332 cals, 21g protein, 54g carbs, 2.3g fat)

Meal 3 (12:30pm) Low fat Mac Cheese with a can of tuna mixed in. Bread roll with half a tub of cottage cheese. (701 cals, 67g protein, 80g carbs, 13.5g fat)

Meal 4 (4:30pm) Bread roll with half tub of cottage cheese, pint of skim milk. (428 cals, 37g protein, 60g carbs, 4g fat)

Meal 5 (PWO 7:30pm) Protein Shake with pint of skim milk (442 calories, 66g of protein, 33g carbs, 3g fat)

Meal 6 (9:30pm) Turkey, Oven chips (645 cals, 73g protein, 60g carbs, 6g fat)

11:00pm Low fat Weight Watcher dessert (90 cals, 4g protein, 15g carbs, 3g fat) I know I shouldn't but at only 90 cals, it's not going to kill me.

This gives me in total: 2990 cals, 330g Protein, 322g Carbs, and 32g of fat.

Thanks for your help.

Meal 1 (6:30 am) Protein shake with a pint of skim milk (442 calories, 66g of protein, 33g carbs, 3g fat) YOU WANT TO FIRST HAVE A PROTIEN SHAKE MIXED WITH WATER FOR MEAL ONE (The reason for this is you have been fasting all night and your body needs fuel as soon as possible mixing protien with water will severly slow the digestion leaving you catabollic for longer)
AFTER YOUR WHEY SHAKE IS FINNISHED HAVE A BOWL OF OATMEAL (roughly 2 cups) MIXED WITH SKIMMED MILK (roughly1 and a half cups)

Meal 2 (9:30 am) Muesli with pint of skim milk (332 cals, 21g protein, 54g carbs, 2.3g fat)
SCRAP THE MUSELI (This is highly ussally proccesed in such nways that it takes most of the nutrients out)
INSTEAD HAVE A PROTIEN/FIBOUROUS CARB AND A COMPLES CARB (eg chicken breasts,Brown Rice and Mixed veg)
Meal 3 (12:30pm) Low fat Mac Cheese with a can of tuna mixed in. Bread roll with half a tub of cottage cheese. (701 cals, 67g protein, 80g carbs, 13.5g fat)
THIS MEAL IS OPTIMAL HOWEVER BETTER WOULD BE (EGsteak, RoastPoatatoes or Boiled Potatoes and mixed veg)
Meal 4 (4:30pm) Bread roll with half tub of cottage cheese, pint of skim milk. (428 cals, 37g protein, 60g carbs, 4g fat)
THIS MEAL IS NOT BIG ENOUGH. YOU COULD KEEP IT ROUGHLY THE SAME BUT ALSO ADD SOME TUNA AND/OR TURKEY AND A CARB SOURCE (eg brown rice or oatmeal)
Meal 5 (PWO 7:30pm) Protein Shake with pint of skim milk (442 calories, 66g of protein, 33g carbs, 3g fat)
YES YOU NEED A PROTIEN SOURCE AT THIS TIME HOWEVER SKIMMED MILK WILL DELAY THE ABSOBSION OF YOUR PWO SHAKE (you need it to digest as soon as possible). YOU ALSO NEED A SIMPLE CARBOHDRATE SOURCE (dextrose) AND A MOPRE COMPLEX CARBOHDRATE SOURCE (eg Maltodextrin). To replenish blood glucose levels, spike Insulin and take you out of a catabollic state and put you in the most anabolic state possible
Meal 6 (9:30pm) Turkey, Oven chips (645 cals, 73g protein, 60g carbs, 6g fat)
REPLASE THE OVEN CHIPS (all these are going to do is add to your gut) WITH ROAST PATATOES AND ADD SOME MIXED VEG
11:00pm Low fat Weight Watcher dessert (90 cals, 4g protein, 15g carbs, 3g fat) I know I shouldn't but at only 90 cals, it's not going to kill me.
YOUR SAYING THE WEIGHT WATCHERS IS WORSE THAN THE CHIPS!!!!
INSTEAD OF THIS HAVE A SLOW DIGESTING PROTIEN (CASIEN IS EXCELENT AT THIS TIME ) ALONG WITH SOME SLOW BURNING CARBS (AGAIN OATMEAL WOULD BE MOST OPTIMAL)
This gives me in total: 2990 cals, 330g Protein, 322g Carbs, and 32g of fat.

Thanks for your help.

Hope this helped
Another thing is Max OT IS NOT EXACTLY THE BEST REGIME FOR ADDING MASS. This is more of a powerlifting protocol as is highly based around low reps. You would be best going for a regime thats based more around 6-12 reps for adding mass.
