daily meal plan ideas

[tom_sparco]

hi, my situation is basically ive wanted to get bigger, and i have, very much. however, ive put on some fat around my belly and i dont like it. ive been eating whatever whenever (keeping my protein intake high) i weigh around 97 kg and am 6 ft tall. so my question is how many carbs do i need in order to get muscular size but not put on fat. also if anyone has any daily meal plans, that would be a great help too. thanks, tom

Hi Tom, everything you might need to know to get started on a cut you will find here.
You should start there, and then if you still have unanswered questions, a bunch of us here can provide further clarification.

That thread i linked you to is pretty complete though, for anyone looking to get started on a cutting diet. It will help you figure out what your macronutrient breakdown should be, what your meals should consist of, and when to eat what.

Sounds like you put on belly fat. VAT. Might be more here than meets the eye.

Tom, whats your sleep patterns like? When do you go to bed, when do you get up, how much sleep do you get? Also, is cardio in your training program?

I'm willing to be that your diet isn't as good as you think. Please post your current diet

ok my current diet...

2 weetabix, yoghurt, banana

pro mass protein shake

-work out- protein shake just after

pasta, chicken breast

tuna sandwich, low fat yoghurt

peanuts, yoghurt

bed 2230ish and protein shake


sometimes it changes when im out or something to maybe roast chicken baguette or something. i have just started doing cardio on wednesdays.

i got to bed at around 2230 and get up at about 0900 and have breakfast.

10 and a half hours of sleep is far too much, really, that's just a waste of a few hours. The optimal amount of sleep is actually 7 and a half hours, doctors say 8 hours because it takes 30 minutes to fall asleep.
