Meal before lift

[joe d]

Damn joe......i have been reading your various post on several threads in this section and i just have one HUGE question.....how F#*king expensive is your grocery bill bro?????/lol

i shop ed. i spend roughly 120.00 per day but i have a wife and 4 step kids eating with me. i probably eat about 60% of the food.

joe im definitely gonna have to start munching on some steak tips or a filetmignion before hittin the gym, any sorta timeframe before goin i should eat it ?? i always hear the 30 min rule of thumb for digestion but i dunno how you guys like to get down here. everyones opinions are diff. Im gonna try hittin up a big-ger breakfast the rest of this week see if its more positive for my weight fatwise since im trying to hold on and cut or atleast shed fat and not droppin 30 lbs of muscle again.. im wrist deep in some almonds now bout to hit the sack, preciate the help brothas

ahhh.. i kind of got off subject. as far as the time frame i do about 1/2 hour but you should try different ones for a wk each to see what works for you.

for the cotting part. it sounds like you just want to trim down a little and time isnt that important? in other words your not competing in 3 months right? if you are doing what i asume you have 2 tools. cutting cals, and cardio. both will result in muscle loss. i find the best cardio to be for 20-30 minutes before your first meal 3 days per wk. for the diet i would trim it down by removing carbs from the later meals on training days and cut a little from all meals on non training days. also for your lifting sessons increase your reps and sets with a lighter weight. get a good pump and move on.

this is a process of trial and error and if your like me your going to fucking hate it. your going to have to expirament and see how you lose less. most people cant get away without losing anything.

i dont think boxing is a good choice for cardio. i would do legs only or full body with mininal arm use. i would also wait until i was on a mild cycle to help prevent muscle loss.

viciousness Has sent me a pm. He said he is really sorry. He thought iggy was calling him a fruit I guess.

You see guys always ask in a nice way first what people really mean before you go on the attack. You will find more often then not the person is not trying to be a dick at all. Thank you and I hope the problem is solved. Iggy is a well respected bro and so is viciousness. Just tone down the viciousness lmao

Eggs or egg protein protein
cottage cheese
oatmeal with added protein powder and or peanut butter
yogurt with added protein powder and or peanut butter
AAAH yes a good old better protein bar works well Needtobuildmuscle.com for that one.

Slice a apple put peanut butter on top, sprinkle a little Vanilla protein powder and wheatgerm on it. thats good too.

Protein pancakes. You can top them with anything from yogurt to peanut butter or fresh fruit if you like.

More often then not this is the meal I just grab what ever the hell is handy though. Brain is not working perfect, don't feel like cooking to much, just want to grab and eat. So making it in advance is best. This is why I like the better protein bars for this.

 

[viciousness]

I tried the bars, I cant eat just 1 or 2 so i had to ditch em LITERALLY. they taste too good to stop after 1 serving maynnnn. Im gonna try the peanut butter apple in the morning but sprinkled whey ontop could be pretty weird I tried sprinkling whey on shit before it gets all gunky. U sprinkle it on tha oats tho? whats that all about , pre micro or after?

steak is always good. changing the way you cook the eggs makes a big difference to.

try this one. chopped red skin potatoes, turkey bacon, eggs, bell peppers, onion all scrambled together. its a complete meal.
