Hi everyone,
I've finally taken the step to be more organised and made some bulk meals over the weekend, packaged up and put in the freezer.
MEAL ONE: 1 KG of Kangaroo mince with an organic chilli con carne mix, diced tomato, red kidney beans and organic sweet corn.
This got me 6 servings when divided evenly with 125 g organic brown rice... (from memory the entire serving size was 550 g)
MEAL TWO: 1.5 KG of chicken breast (seasoned with Cumin) just shy of 900 G of pineapple, 5 diced chillies, and multiple mixed colour peppers.
This got me 8 servings when again divided evenly with 125 g organic brown rice... (from memory the entire serving size was 400 - 450 g)
Now, since I'm sharing these with the missus, I get 7 total servings for the week, so that gets me 5 days of single serves, with two days I can double up. The other two days I will be eating a 185 g TUNA and large avocado (with roughly 1 TSP free range egg mayo and roughly 1 TBSP of Sweet chilli sauce)
So my question is, would the extra carb meals be better saved for the day leading up to my Lower body workouts on Monday and Thursday or the day after, to help growth and aid recovery and also leading to my Upper body workouts on Tuesday and Friday... Tuna and avocado will definitely be on Wednesday rest day as I believe the extra good fats will be most beneficial then? There will also be an omelette in there for good measure.
Breakfast is my usual smoothie > water, protein, banana, blueberries + raspberries, natural PB and MCT Oil with a little Wheatgerm or Flaxseed meal.
Post workout smoothie > almond or coconut milk, 1 cup of organic dry oats, protein, banana, blueberries + strawberries.
Dinner is usually 250 g Hoki fillets with steamed vegetables and either another small serving of rice or sweet potato for my post workout carbs.
I also try and hit up some cottage cheese or casein protein before bed, depending on how full I feel from dinner (sometimes I eat quite late)
Appreciate everyone's thoughts and opinions on my nutrition. I'm trying to build as much muscle as possible while at the very least, maintaining my current BF % although ideally, as we're approaching the Aussie summer I want to drop the numbers a bit too.
Quick training overview;
Monday - Thursday: Lower body
Tuesday - Friday: Upper body
Wednesday - Weekends: REST.
45 min sessions. High intensity! > rest is 1 min on average.
3 - 4 sets of 12/15/20 reps depending on the exercise/targeted muscle group.
Focusing on primarily compounds with a few isolation scattered in there.
Cardio is minimal tbh, I'm usually pretty spent after resistance training...
Thanks!
