Its good to hear you are motivated m8 and you took a step in the right direction when you joined EF as there is so many people who can help you out here as they did/are for me. Theres so much to learn so just read read and read some more.

Protein intake is roughly right at around 200 you could actually get some more in the ratio should be around 1.5g per 1lb of body weight. You dont have to have the oats with the shake you could have it with milk and maybe have your shake with water? this is what i did no diffrence really just did it for taste purposes. As for cardio like i said check out HIIT you wont be running for to long 30 mins max but you will be truly fucked after doing it and burning more fat than the average jog. If i find the link i will post it later. As for fatigue in workouts could be due to your fitness levels (the cardio will help out here) or energy levels maybe have a bannana before workout. After workout is your shake 44grams of protein or 22grams? personally i would make it 44.

Its 22g, check out my diet on page 1. I need about 4-500 cal to get in the 2200 range. Im having a hell of a time trying to figure out how im going to add calories without adding too much fat or losing too much protein. HIIT=hi intensity?

Maybe my fatigue was from staying up all night saturday and all day sunday and drinking - i didnt have a problem at the gym on monday, maybe the loss of sleep caught up with my today though..

Thanks,

Chris

Talked to some body building guy in the gym yesterday and he told me 1800 cal is maint. and I wont put on an oz of muscle. Would I be better off bulking for a while and then cutting? He claims I should eat around 3200 cal to bulk..
