</br>
</br> Many will choose to simply drink their egg whites for convenience. Sounds gross but they have no taste. Use actual egg whites, not egg product.
</br>
</br> Another good time saving factor is the 3 rd option. Mix it all together in a protein shaker; add in one packet of Splenda shake and drink.

</br> Last meal of the day, it should be eaten not too far off before bedtime. Being hungry before you go to bed is never any fun.
</br>
</br> There are no carbs in this meal since you dont need them. Youve already trained, youve already had your post workout shake
</br>
</br> KCL: KCL: 450-480, PT: 40-45, Carb: 0-10, Fat: 10-20 ***Post Workout Shake*** 40-50 grams of whey isolate 60-70 grams of a fast acting Waxy Maze Drink this immediately after training, within 15-20 minutes after you have cooled down.
</br>
</br> This meal is not your last meal of the day, which is still meal 6. Place the post workout shake in right after you train, whenever that is.
</br>

This will take your carb total over the amount listed but dont let this worry you at all. ***VERY IMPORTANT***
</br>
</br> Our number one goal is QUALITY, NOT QUANTITY. Because of this, it is imperative that we stay within approximately 15-20lbs of our contest weight; this does not include water loss weight. If you are not a competitor, you should still follow this rule; you will look better and you will feel better.
</br>
</br> If at any time you begin moving beyond this point, you need to examine your diet. Use the advice given in this diet guide and examine your cardio schedule
</br>
</br> ***IF AT ANY TIME YOU NEED TO LOSE BODY FAT AND YOU BEGIN TO STAGNATE, YOU WILL NEED TO BEGIN MOVING YOUR CARB AND FAT SOURCES AROUND.
</br>
</br> At this point alternate each meal, in one meal have foods that give you carb sources, but take away the fats, in the next meal take away the carb sources and keep in the fats.
</br>
</br> You may need to begin cycling your carb intake. Not in the manner in which you might do if you were dieting hard for competition. You will need to experiment with this.
</br>
</br> When we speak of Carb Cycling in this case, simply cut the carbs down one day and then go back to the normal amount the next. At times it may be wise to keep the carbs cut back 2 days in a row, use sound judgment. This is the kind of thing that cannot be written out in detail since it will greatly vary from person to person.
</br>
</br> *Your daily caloric intake should be split into 3 sections that are adequately planned for utilizing Proteins, Carbs and Fats to the fullest extent possible. Protein being the bulk of your calories, but this does not mean the other 2 nutrients are not of equal importance. Protein will make up 50% of your daily intake, while carbs will be at approximately 30% and fats will make up approximately the remaining 20%. This only refers to your actual food intake. Fat intake will in actuality be slightly higher than this due to the supplements you take, which will be discussed further into the diet outline.
</br>
</br> ***Notes on diet*** If you train first thing in the morning, do not do so before eating your first meal of the day
</br>
</br> There is a post workout shake in your diet at this point, however if you notice that you are gaining too much fat, this is the first thing that should go. If this happens, drop the post workout shake and simply stick with the 6 meal plan.
</br>
</br> If you have had to cut the post workout shake but are still gaining too much fat, start reducing carbs by way of cutting back your oats and rice. Cut back to 1/2cup per serving if needed.
</br>
</br> Meal order is unimportant, specific meals should be eaten at certain times, as said in bullet points above, however, the specific layout of the meal plan is not set in stonemake it fit your routine as best as possible.
</br>
</br> Try your best not to drink shakes back to back. Try to limit it to no more then two shake meals per day. This is not a must but will aid you a great deal. However it will not always be possible due to time constraints, and thats fine. For the last meal of the day there are 3 meal choices, again mix and match
</br>
</br> ***Notes on Food Types***
</br>
</br> 1. Eggs: Eggs are one of the best sources of protein you can consume. With all foods, no matter how much protein the food has, the body can only use and process a limited amount from each food. Eggs, however, rank higher than almost any food we can ingest; almost the entire amount of protein from the egg will be utilized. Omega-3 eggs have even more benefit for the bodybuilder, as well as for general health. Omega-3 eggs have Omega-3 fats in them, a huge building block to a well-tuned physique; as well as an added bonus in helping to control cholesterol. If you cant find Omega-3 eggs, which should be very rare, regular eggs will work fine.
</br>
</br> 2. Whey Protein: There are a million brands and types of whey proteins on the market today, and it can be a difficult task to know which one is best.
</br>
</br> Choose a protein powder that is of isolate form, not concentrate. Isolate protein absorbs more efficiently then concentrate.
</br>
</br> Choose a protein powder that is very low in sugar, close to no sugar or even no sugar is what you want.
</br>
</br> Choose a protein powder that is not full of saturated fat.
</br>
</br> Choose a protein powder that is not high in cholesterol.
</br>
</br> Once you have narrowed your search down to meet the above requirements, choose the protein powder that taste the best.
</br>
</br> 3. Peanut Butter: Use only natural peanut butter. Your peanut butters ingredient list should read, Peanuts and salt thats it. It should have no added sugar. A jar of Smuckers Natural Peanut Butter will have 2 grams of sugar listed on the back label for one serving of 2tbsp naturally.
</br>
</br> 4. Beef: Your choices of beef should be filet minion, top round sirloin, lean ground beef (4%-*% fat) in that order.
</br>
</br> 5. Chicken: Make chicken breast your primary source of chicken. Chicken is high in protein, low in unhealthy fats and a perfect bodybuilding food.
</br>
</br> 6. Green Vegetables: Broccoli, asparagus, spinach and green beans should be your main source of vegetables. Other vegetables can be acceptable and can be good for you, but the before mentioned should be your primary source. Vegetables such as corn, white potatoes, and tomatoes should be held to a very minimal consumptionthere is no benefit for these in your diet at this stage.
</br>
</br> 7. Fish: Choose fish such as flounder or cod. Salmon is also a great choice in place of beef.
</br>
</br> 8. Turkey: Choose the white meat.
</br>
</br> 9. Rice: Brown or white is fine. If you put on body fat easily stick with Brown. Both are very similar, however, brown rice is lower on the glycemic index. (see definition for glycemic index)
</br>
</br> 10. Sweet Potatoes & Oatmeal: Simply excellent sources for your carbs, and perfect foods for aiding in putting on muscle in your diet.
</br>

</br>
