My Nutrition Program View My Full Nutrition Program
Eating Clean makes me feel good all the time. I don't need "cheat" meals or treats to keep me satisfied.
There are so many out there that eat the same foods everyday, which is fine but I don't. I keep my calorie allotment and macro-nutrients in check everyday. I like to be around a 40/40/20 split on my Macros.
Here is a sample of a day..... I'll post more soon. Being fit and healthy is a Lifestyle.
5am (When I wake up for the day) 30g of Isolate Protein
6-6:30am 5-6 Egg Whites, normally hardboiled from the night before. This is easy and fast. I'll do 1/2 cup steel cut oats with sprinkled cinnamon on it. Sometimes I'll throw on some berries. Normally blueberries.
9am (This is normally my Pre-workout meal) 1cup low-fat cottage cheese, 15 raw almonds, 1/2 c berries. Sometimes I'll throw in a scoop of vanilla protein powder. It's actually not too bad.
10-11:30am Workout. I'm lucky if I get that much time.
11:30am Post-workout protein shake in water, amino acids, and creatine monohydrate if I'm putting on size.
1:00pm (This should be the cleanest meal of the day) I have 1 chicken breast, lightly seasoned with 1/2c sweet potatoes.
3:30pm Here I'm in the middle of my day and I'll have a Quest Nutrition bar or if a quick protein shake in water.
5:30-6pm I'll have dinner. Every night it's different. I make sure the meat is lean, I'll have a little bit of complex carbs like brown rice or if I have fish, I'll just have veggies.
8:30pm This is when I start settling down for the night. I'll have my bed-time 50/50 shake here with water and Ice. I blend it up. Like I stated above, I'll have a tbsp of Adam's PB in it if I am bulking.

I stick to the basics. Having a great physique isn't all about the supplements. I have tried them all, but it all comes down to you.
My Supplement Routine as of 04/26/2013
Multi-Vitamin (Opti-Men by Optimum Nutrition) with Breakfast
My Post Workout Hydrowhey Protein in Vanilla by Optimum Nutrition or BSN Syntha 6 Isolate and Waxy Maize
Post-Workout: Amino Acids. Normally just the Optimum pills but I tried BSN's Amino X and its awesome! I will do Creatine Monohydrate when i am trying to put on size. Stick to the purest form. Don't get fooled by all of the awesome marketed products out there.
Pre-Workout: I like to mix it up. Like i said, I've tried them all. I like Optimum's NO Amino and Cellucor's C4 in the Pink Lemonade. I hear the Watermelon is good too but haven't tried it yet. I also like BSN's Hyper FX and I'll take 3-5 tablets of BSN's Nitrix 2.0. Sometimes if I'm wanting a crazy pump I'll throw in 5g of Arginine powder. Usually its just the GNC brand and it works wonders.
I don't really take fat burners but when I do I like Cellucor's HD, BSN's Hyper Shred. I take L Carnatine, Yohimbe, and CLA before my early morning cardio sessions.
Before Bed:I make a protein shake. I have a hard time with the 100% Casein, so I do the 50/50 blend by Dymatize called Elite Gourmet. When bulking, I'll have a Tbsp. of Adam's Peanut Butter as well. Also, I take ZMA before bed as well.
My Motivation Program View My Full Motivation Program
"The Past Doesn't Define You. The Present Does."
I am self-motivated. I work a lot and have stresses just like any other business owner. I use working out as a way out and a Therapy. I put my music on and go to work.
"It's not about how many times you've been knocked down. It's about how many times you get back up." I think about that. Life knocks you down. Just toughen up, learn from it, and move on.
IMFITPT updated his body fat from 9% to 8%, a loss of 1% in 7 days.
