Ok, please read below, this will give you pretty much all the details about where I am, and what I am planning to start this Monday, diet, supplements, training plan, etc. I would really appreciate all advice, words of wisdom, expectations, etc. If I am missing anything, or need to be looking for any possible problems, symptoms, etc. Thanks for the help in advance!
First, as the "new guy" wanted to say great board, just discovered it late last week and had to get signed up. My story quickly, was heavy in the gym and athletics through high school and college, worked in a few gyms, etc. Then hit the "real world", gone more on and off, then went more to off. Now, married a little over a year, and 33 yrs old, decided it was time to kick the lazy and the fat. So first of the year, I jumped back in the gym, got a good 2.5 month base, have lost 4 inches on my waist already, and have seen great strength gains back to old times. I have been doing a whey, ran through a bottle of Powerful (good stuff) and NO Explode. Figure it's time to change it up. After a bunch of research, talking to a sports physiologist, and a great trainer, here is the new round of supplements, would love thoughts...
(My goals are continued lean muscle and strength development, while shredding fat, still have the mid-section hanging on)
Whey (pre, post, and additional during day)
Creatine Monohydrate
BCAA
Tri-MethalyX (2 per day, 1 pre, 1 at lunch?)
Havoc (3 per day, 1 pre, 1 lunch, 1 at 4 P?)
B-6
L-Carnitine
L-Glutamine
Men's Active Multi
Casein (late night, for overnight slow release)
As for diet, will be getting approx 1.25 grams of protein per lb of lean mass, eating every two hours, or approx 8 meals or feedings a day, eggs, whole grains, fruits, vegs, low carb, staying away from refined and simple sugars, laying off alcohol.
For workout, will be in 5 days/week, focusing on a single group per day, allowing adequate rest. Will also be focusing on core each day. As far as cardio, 5 min warm up, and 15-20 mins post workout.
Thoughts? Anything I am missing? Tell me!
