    Diet Revamp

    Ya sounds kinda backwords...But I just finished along cut and now it's bulking time! I made it all the way down to 170 at 6%bf, at 5'11

    Definitely have veins I never knew I had lol...

    My goal is to maintain very low bodyfat if at all possible and get up to 180 and then maintain there during the year.

    Here is my current diet:

    Workout Day:

    11am-1 cup skim milk, 1 cup oats, 1 scoop whey
    1pm-(preworkout) 1 can tuna or 4 egg beaters, 1 cup skim milk, 1 cup oats
    3:30pm-(postworkout) 2 scoops whey, 1 scoop Phosphagen (35g dextrose), 3/4 cup quick oats
    4:30pm- 4-5oz chicken breast or 1 can tuna, 1 cup oats
    7:30pm- 4 egg beaters or 1 can salmon, 2 slices of ezekial bread (24g carbs)
    10:30pm- 2 scoops casien protein and 1/4 cup almonds/walnuts
    1:30am- the famous 1 cup cottage cheese and 2 tbsp natural pb

    Off day:
    11am-1 cup oats, 1 cup skim milk, 1 scoop whey
    1pm-1 cup cottage cheese, 1 cup oats
    4pm-1 can tuna, 3/4 cup oats, 1/8 cup almonds
    7pm-6-8 egg beaters, 3/4 cup oats
    10pm-2 scoops casien protein, 1/4 cup almonds
    1pm-1 cup cottage cheese natural pb

    *Vegetables are thrown in at random meals (broccoli, asparagus, and sometimes spinach) And sometimes I replace the oats in my PWO shake with a banana, just depends if I have a ripe one

    I think my carbs have been to low on off days, but I keep looking more and more shredded, I promise when I post pics in a week or two, you guys will be like I've been cycling higher cal/high carb on workout days, and low cal/low carb on off days.

    Anyways, I want to slowly bulk...What should I add and what #'s should I go for...I'm a pretty easy gainer...

    I believe he's talking about Veggies. Also I'd personally I'd have the Casein before bed instead of it being your 2nd to last meal.

    LOL! I appreciate you trying to help me out, but some things you say don't make much sense. Slowly digested protein is ideal anytime of the day other then morning, pre/post workout.

    Obviously casien protein is ideal bef0re bed...but it's also ideal at many other times of the day.

    Features and benefits: Casein has a strong anti-catabolic effect. You might describe casein as the “opposite” of whey. They’re both great proteins but they act quite differently from one another. Casein has a lower anabolic effect (31 percent versus 68 percent) when compared to whey. However, casein has a very profound anti-catabolic effect, meaning that this protein inhibits protein breakdown. This has profound implications for the proper use of casein.

    How to use it: Because casein is digested slowly, it produces a slow but steady rise in amino acids. Blood levels peak about one to two hours after consuming casein and remains elevated for up to seven hours. According to sports nutritionist Jeffrey Stout, Ph.D., author of Supplements for Strength-Power Athletes, “casein is a great protein to take before going to bed. Because it’s absorbed slowly, you’ll get a nice stream of amino acids into your body. This will of course help you recover.”
