Thanks MF. Feel free to critique anything, diet or training. Lord knows I need the help.

 

 

7am no DOMS from yesterday's leg day, go figure so I'm I'm the treadmill before breakfast. I'm gonna try this out because a fello faux vegan friend of mine does it and has stripped away a lot of fat.

 

I did 30min and burnt 260 cals and had a soy protein shake and banana after.

 

10am meal. This was my 7-10 combined. I used to eat a peanut butter and banana sandwich at 7 upon waking then steel cut oats t 10. Today at 10 I'm having my heavy carb meal all at once.

2 slices of 7 grain bread 18carbs

2 tbs of peanut butter. 7 carbs

1/4c cooked steel cut oats 15 carbs

 

Total 40 carbs. That's not too much for one meal?

 

I must admit I feel great after pre breakfast cardio. No coffee yet either, but I did have muscle recovery tea from Yogi.

Sorry for the delayed reply but yeah I totally agree, it is definitely all about the food. My ex roommate used to workout like mad and they drain gallons of milk among other crap, and he always complained about his gut. Go figure right (pun inteneded).

7am cardio on bike for 20 totally dogging it. Rpms are at about 75-80 compared to the constant 100 later during the day. I guess the trick here is the work out pre breakfast is burning more fat.

 

Yesterday I was totally bloated and had 2300 cals, 295 short of goal. I suspect it was the smart ground or homemade black bean burger. I'm gonna have smart lean tonight so I can see if that bloats me.

 

I think 2600 is the max caloric intake I can handle eating the way I do. I suspect I need more calorie dense good food.

 

The goal is to repair muscle and strip away the fat. Bottom line is I look better thinner when you can see my small muscles.

 

8:40standard breakfast

 

10am steal cut oats and blue berries.

 

12lunch was mixed veggies and gimmi lean sausage followed by 1/2 a protien shake.

 

2:00 15min run 200 cals burned. Intense cardio not like am session.

 

2:30 other half of protein shake.

1/2 pepper stuffed with smart ground and black beans. Nuts and 1/2 cup grapes.

 

No bloating so it must have been the pre made burger.

 

5pm refried bean burrito

 

7:45 spinach salad with seeds

 

9:30 shake and melon.

10:30 GNC wheybolic shake and oatmeal with blueberries.

 

1:30 lunch on the road. Vega protien bar, 20oz of mixed nuts, apple.

 

3pm 3c salad with 1/4c walnuts, soy nuts and seeds.

 

5pm dinner was a total scrape together. I had left over broccoli, spinach that was getting old and gimmi lean sausage so i combined with olive oil and garlic.

http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/04/19/u3yzute6.jpg

 

Usually i had a 7-7:30 snack but i eliminated it and ate more earlier.

 

9:30 vega shake and a few strawberries.

 

Note. I have stopped ab work 5-7 days per week and low and behold i see my upper abs coming in and my male V starting to develop. I guess i was overtraining them.

 

I also cut back on the nightly yoga. I am limiting it to just stretches at night.

My glutes and legs are so sore. Almost 3 days later and I'm still sitting gingerly. I guess switching to more traditional lifts was what I needed. Crossfit was good but it's time to build now. After 6 months it's time for a change.
