Right now I am doing what is feeling natural, which has been to eat, eat, eat. It is winter time and it is cold. My appetite has easily doubled from what it was a few months back. I've decided that whole foods are better than any supplement because I feel like I see noticeable gains daily at this point. Certain guidelines are followed:
No processed foods
No artificial sweetners
Make sure to get enough fruits and vegetables
Aside from that, pretty much anything goes. Example is today:
Breakfast:
-3 packets organic oatmeal with frozen blueberries and raspberries mixed in.
-2 lightly cooked eags w/ yolks
-1 Glass grape juice
-multivitamin, 2 fish oils, two green/white tea pills
snack:
-This "trio" bar thing which is a mix of "3 kinds of nuts, 3 kinds of seeds, and 3 kinds of dried fruit"
Lunch:
-1 and a half chicken breasts
-salad
-whole grain bar
-Tea
-multivitamin, 2 fish oils
Banana and 25 grams whey protein mixed with grape juice (post-exercise)
Pre-dinner
Lentil soup
Dinner:
-Organic pizza with artichokes
-Garlic bread with olive oil
-Chicken breast
-two fish oil
Trio nut bar and dark chocolate for dessert.
T'was a good food day today
Past week workouts:
Saturday: 3-4 mile run + shadow boxing/jump rope
Sunday:
Monday: Chest, triceps, abs. Murdered my chest, didn't recover for days!
Tuesday:
Wednesday: Back and biceps +lower back/core.
Did some pull-ups to warm up and was glad to see I did 15 and probably could have done a couple more. Full extension, very good form, and no cheating.
Thursday: Boxing. Was shit tonight, feeling lazy and lethargic. Hurt my finger again which had stitches in it because I decided to spar anyways. I knew this was not a good idea beforehand, but did it anyways and suffered the consequences.
Friday (today): Shoulders. Lots of military press, assorted flys/extensions, shrugs
Tomorrow: Chest/triceps/abs again. I have been eating so much lately I have a lot of energy. Body is starting to feel like a machine, the food is fuel and must serve it's purpose !
At the rate I'm going I am adding bulk very fast. Adding muscle and a bit of fat , I feel very good, lots of energy.
I have cut out on many of my past ways, which trips to bars were plentiful and over-indulgence in various things was a common theme. All I do now a days is study, eat, and go to the gym. The gym is actually the highlight of my day now, I was telling a friend today how boring I've become. But this is a good kind of boring, one where I feel content and grounded. I feel less "wants" if that makes sense.
Sleep and sustenance have never served their purpose so well as they do lately.
