pretty lil omelet...looks good enough to eat ;-)

best for pre-workout meal or first meal of the deal hands down.

when you mix whey protein with milk you reduce the speed at which the protein digests. (milk is a slow digesting protein)

Anyway, long story short...if you are drinking the shake first thing in the morning or post-workout AVOID the milk.

If you are drinking it as a meal replacement or pre-bedtime shake...then milk is fine.

Is there any meat or protein product, I should say, with an amino profile preferable to most other sources?

this is kind of an awkward question....do you mean a COMPLETE amino profile?

Red meats, chicken, fish, and whey protein are really the best sources of a good range of aminos.

if you want a non-meat source...I can only recommend fish and eggs...

and if you want a vegan source, then you're shit out of luck.

I m going on a clean bulk soon and I was wondering what my carb intake should looks like

Training day : no carbs after post work out shake

non-training day : no carbs after meal 3 ????

Should I do some Hiit with my training or not ? If so how many times a week should I do that

How's my diet look to you right now?

4 egg whites
1 cup cottage cheese
2 pieces bread
2 tbsp PB
1 piece of fruit

1 can tuna
2 tbsp mayo
2 whole eggs
1 bottle sweet tea

7oz hamburger
2 cups pasta
1/2 cup spaghetti sauce
1 piece fruit

8oz chicken
1 large potato
1 cup green beans
1 bottle sweet tea

2x protein shakes - post workout and before bed

40 g protein
2 tbsp PB
10 g glutamine
1 cup apple juice (not before bed though)
1/2 cup oats (not before bed though)


I've been following this diet for awhile, already up to 210.

This is my routine :

Monday - Back
Tuesday - Chest/Tris
Wednesday - OFF
Thursday - AM Quads/PM Hams
Friday - Shoulders
Saturday - Bis/Tris
Sunday - OFF

Calves twice a week

Let me know what you think about this. Just curious about opinions on it, I know it's working for me but wouldn't mind some input on it if you know what I mean

correct....no carbs after post workout shake and no carbs after meal 3...

but HIIT shouldnt even be done on a clean bulk, only on cutting cycles...just stick to intense weight training on a bulk.

good deal, I'm glad its working out for you.
