630am- 2 cups of coffee and 2 pieces of double protein toast w/ peanut butter

745am- (drive to work) another cup of coffee and a PBJ on double protein bread

830am- 4 scoops of Up Your Mass in 1% milk and a banana

1015am (breakfast time) either 8egg whites and swiss on a roll w/ a bag of white cheddar cheez its (have too) OR 2 whole wheat bagels gutted and toasted with low fat cream cheese... This is ALWAYS my breakfast for years, 7 days a week. Normally its egg whites 4 days and 3 days bagels, but sometimes its the other way around

1pm- Train then post workout shake, either a musclemilk I buy from the gym or ON Double Chocolate in 1% milk

3pm- (Lunch time) It varies from Chicken and rice to Steak and rice to a Boars Head Chicken Breast and Provolone sandwich to Steak and Sweet Potatoes to Chicken and sweet potatoes. Pick any one of the above and thats my lunch. Hearty portions too!

530pm (drive to second job) 4 scoops of UP your Mass in 1% milk

9pm (Dinner) Take all my lunch choices and add that here, minus the sandwich. Its either a chicken or steak with rice or sweet potatoes as my side. Once in a while ill do a fish with the same sides


Im a creature of habit and this has been my routine for pretty much the past few years. Give or take an hour or two on the times of my meals, for the most part this is my schedule.

discuss :lurk:

I should also point out that im 5'9, 200lbs

Goal is to be about 212-215 by September 11 (going on a cruise). I dont really care about abs at all. Fortunately my stomach remains flat for the most part. I try to get in 20-30 min of cardio a few times a week for my high blood pressure

Im on meds for hypertension, borderline high cholesterol, and pre-diabetic (all heredity issues) mild sleep apnea, and I have polycythemia. Im just fucked every which way. I try to consume at least a gallon of water a day amongst other liquids to help thin out my blood. Docs dont want to put me on a baby asprin because at such a young age (32) it can trick my bone marrow to stop making blood over time. Thats not good.

Hey bro, I dont mind a little fat on me. Working 2 jobs and no bodybuilding aspirations, I have absolutely no time to get in the cardio id need to be ripped. There is a saying over at our gym, Jon doesnt subscribe to it, but it goes a little something like this..

"One big ab is better than six little ones"

LOL

This is just my opinion, but I've had better results when using more whole food and less shakes. It looks like you get at least half of your calories from shakes. I think that's too much. I tried ON Serious Mass and for me it just sat in my stomach like a brick and made me feel terrible for a couple hours. I think it actually made it harder to eat. It also looks like you only really have 3 solid meals, the ones in the morning are pretty small. I understand not having time, trust me. I wake up at 6am and hate it. I do drink a breakfast shake sometimes if I'm in a hurry but it is usually a hefty one, around 800 calories. 1/2 cup oats, 1 cup milk, 2-3 scoops whey protein, 1/4 cup - 1/3 cup blueberries/peaches/mixed fruit and some honey...maybe a little olive oil. Then when I get to work about 45-60 minutes later I have a whole meal ready to heat up and eat and then it's real food for the rest of the day except PWO and a Casein shake right before bed.

If there's any way to eat more whole food, that seemed to work better for me. Good luck.
