So you've probably heard you phrase you cant out-train a bad diet, and it couldnt be more right. I'd give it a strong 80% diet, 20% Working out split as when you workout thats only a few hours max of your day, the rest of them hours all depends on your nutrition and willpower, if you want some more information on macronutrients flick back to the posts on them below.
So my basic diet will consist of 4 meals, a complex carb, protein source per serving, plenty of water and vitamin supplements, for the time being i wont be taking any workout supplemets or protein shakes as i am squeezing around 140g of protein into the diet as it is which is exactly what my intake was during my first cut and i was happy enough with the results. I will be consuming on average 2000-2200 calories per day, around 1300 calories from plain rice, 450 calories from protein sources (chicken/turkey etc) and an additional 250-450 calories from full fat milk.........Dont panic, I know theres a lot of skeptics out there saying these ratios are all wrong, there are too many carbs, too many fats, But dont just go off what you read, this diet would be unhealthy if i was consuming more than my BMR + exercise output, but this is way below with additional low level cardio included also, fats and carbs are essential for every single metabolic and function in your body. These numbers will adjust slghtly and protein intake will take over the rice as i approach my goal weight of 195lbs as well as increased workout intensity.
My workout routine for the time being will be very little, i wont have the energy to bench 100kg for sets on end but i will be doing resistance training to maintain muscle mass and low level cardio for 30 mins per day, this worked for me like a treat the first time round even though everyone said i was wrong and i would never lose the weight, so you need to just find out what works for you. I'll also be working a full time job soemtimes with irrregular hours, so this will be a huge test of my mental strength especially with a takeaway next door! Day 0 begins now, im more intrigued to see how my mental health changes with this cut, so i will be emphasising a lot on how im thinking and feeling also with posts.
