Default J-Rock's Fat Loss + Lean Muscle Journey

I started my new routine already but plan to document starting tomarrow. I am 25/m, 6-1, and currently weigh 232lbs. Don't want to give an exact number of pounds I want to lose, but in simpler terms the end result I want to be is jacked. I am combining a diet of lean proteins, whole grains, and fruits and veggies. I cut all junk food out of my diet, including soda and alcohol. I plan to document my progress with pictures as a make my way down the road to wellness.

Supplements I am using:

Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Protein 24g of protein per scoop (3x)
SNI Creatine Ethyl Ester 2250mg per 3 capsules (6 capsules)
Vitamin Shoppe "Beast Pak" multivitamin pak (1 pak)
Nutrex Lipo 6X- (2 capsules x 2)

Cardio 5x per week
Weight Training 5x per week

Wish me Luck.............................................. .............

Thanks guys...

I usually keep a journal, but I'll steer away from it. So, I figured if I put my journal online, it'll help keep me motivated along with the comments.

I am going along with Talo's recommendation of 250g protein, 150-200g carbs, and 90g of fats.

Tomarrow is biceps annihilation!!!!

add in 4 more egg whites and another chicken breast....BTW on average a chicken breast will have somewhere between 17-25g of protein... You have it as zero.

In your post worout drink , I would x the banana and pick up some dextrose or waxy maize. It's very important to have a fast carb after your workout.

your numbers are looking good.

I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"

How many grams of dextrose do you think is enough?

60-80 g . I think more when you train legs.

I wouldn't take that much dex by itself. It doesn't work well. Mix it half and half with maltodextrin (grams of carbs) or do the waxy maize. Less bloating, cramping and more/faster absorption.

Eric3237's Sig:"Not everyone trains for strength": True. Not everyone one is smart either. Personally, I'm training to be an olympic sprinter so I can have big legs. I also like to move huge boulders because I like the way they look over there...
