Diet
My initial thoughts on diet are this, while I'm training for strength, there is a significant chance to recomp, so I figure I might as well try.
Marcros
Protien 350g
Fat 70g
Carbs 300g
Thats 3160cals a day, I will be splitting between 5-6 meals a day. I will keep my carbs heavy in the morning, and around workouts, and light at other meals. While I wouldnt mind a little recomp, if my gains begin to stall i will have to up my cals.
Restrictions
Unfortunately for me there is a chance that I have celiac disease. And with the way work has gone this week I havent been able to get to the doctor. Celiac is a hereditary disfunction of the lower intestine, it basicly means that if I have it (and I've been displaying all the signs) that I cant ingest Gluten, a substance found in wheat, barley, grains ect. So I will be monitoring my carb intake very very closely.
The other side to this is that many whey protien powders have gluten in them also. So I plan to use straight BCAA's for my shakes (flame away boys). I know many will say its not optimal, but I've been used Purple Wraath (EAA's) as my pre and post shakes on the last run, and my strength shot up. I just picked up a kilo, so it should be interesting to see how this plays out ... which leads us to ...
Suppliments
Caps/tabs
Cialabol (creatine)
Fish Oil
Celedrin MSM
Bulk Powders
BCAA's
Maltodextrin/dextrose (gaterade powder)
Citruline malate
Glycerol
Cissus
Alcar
Taurine
I may throw in some other stuff out of my stash from time to time, but nothing really note worthy.
