Limited space in my briefcase. Anything I could eat that's small in size that could count as a meal? haha

If you want to save your body from catabolism at night you could eat some fat free cottage cheese before bed. That's what I do. What kind of cardio do you do right now?

At a quick glance bro it dont look like youre getting enough Protein.
Have you figured up yor carbs youre eating several pieces oh ww bread a day bro.It might be much for everyday.

whey shake at 4 hands down.
hands down and bottoms up.
get u some small GLAD Tupperware however u spell that.
dont go 4 hrs, especially when your overall protein isn't high enough.

Sounds good guys. Protein shake tomorrow at 4 for sure.

Something I noticed today during my workout:
I did back today, I noticed that I was tired relatively early in my workout; not necessarily my muscles but just my body in general. I felt like I had no energy left about 45 min into my workout. Does this have something to do with this diet? Is the NO shotgun messing with my energy levels? I'm not sure, but this whole body fatigue ordeal started with this new diet/taking NO shotgun and i'm kinda skeptical about it.

yeah you need a complex carb for your pre workout meal, try some brown rice.

WorkoutGuru · 07-01-2008, 12:38 AM

Oh and as far as cardio-

MWF--HIIT training, sprints 20 seconds, walk 1 minute --20 minutes

TTh--incline walk on treadmill, keeping my heartrate between 130-140 for 20-30 min

Weekends completely off, cheat day on sunday for diet.

So the banana isn't enough? Somebody on here posted a article on bananas saying that eating one for preworkout meal would give you sufficient energy for 90 minutes. Try searching for it. I was just taking his advice, guess I need a bit more carbs.

**allstar** · 07-01-2008, 12:48 AM

nah i wouldnt trust just the banana try some oatmeal or brown rice
