fat is way to low, besides that it looks good...

is it working ?

Based on your numbers the ratio is more like 38/40/22. I like a 40/30/30 myself, but of course this is an individual preference.

I like your diet. Only comments would be, 3100 cals seem low for a bulk. What is your weight and current BF%? Your bulk looks a lot like my cut . Also, I would switch from flax seed oil to fish oil, and ditch the OJ at breakfast. If you are using this for calories, maybe consume whole milk for breakfast only. On a bulk, it is not a big deal to throw in some calorie dense cheat meals now and then.

yeah i think 40 30 30 will work better for cutting.

 

[aztecwolf]

you definately have more then 10% fat in that diet
and is that a 40/30/30 c/p/f ??? I thought for a bulk something like 50/35/15 c/p/f would be better? I do this ratio roughly for my workout days? and on my off days it is more like a 40/40/20 c/p/f? I'm not bulking but just trying to gain as much lean muscle tissue while keeping my bf% roughly the same

What would you change in it?

 

[sentricyphen]

like LAM said. up the fats. also, drop the carbs, esp. if this isnt a carb cycle.

1/2 cup Uncooked Pasta

uncooked pasta?

Is it ok if I call you 127? Or should I stick with the more formal Mr. 1?

Call him localhost. 127.0.0.1 is the loopback address for a network interface card.
