Im 17, 5'11'', 180-190 lbs.
I wanted to start cutting at the beginning of summer (a month ago), but I didnt really have a clue where to begin. I changed my diet a little, and its much healthier now, but I need to change it more. I also started to work out. Heres what Im doing now.
Breakfast - Protein shake: 1 1/2 scoop whey (30g), fat free milk (10g)
1/2 cup oats, 3/4 cup fat free milk
multivitamin & fish oil
Lunch - Can of tuna (37g), Slice of whole wheat bread
Dinner - Anything my mom makes / brings home :o
After workout - 2 scoop whey protein (40g), water
Before sleep - 3 tbsp cottage cheese, mixed nuts or natty peanut butter
So, I have to fix a few things in my diet. For dinner, im planning to eat chicken breast, brown rice, and a cup of veggies. I dont have a scale, so how do I measure the ounces of chicken breast Im eating? Also, how much brown rice should i be eating? Ill add a slice of whole wheat bread to my post workout meal. I know Im missing a pre workout meal, so I think Im going to make it egg whites (i have egg starts, how many servings should i be eating?) cooked with olive oil and 2 slices of whole wheat bread. That makes it 6 meals total.
This is what I do for my workout:
day 1: chest/tricpes
day 2: back/biceps
day 3: thighs/legs
day 4: shoulders/abs
for chest/triceps - flat bb bench, incline bb bench, close grip bench, skullcrushers (this hurts my left elbow like mad)
for back/biceps - deadlift, barbell row, barbell curls
for legs/thighs - squats, straight leg deadlift, lying leg curl, leg curl
for shoulders/abs - military press, shrugs, crunches, twisted crunches
I do 4x sets, 6-10 reps for the weight exercises. For crunches, I do 4x 25 reps. What should I change in my workout? I barely do any cardio now. Im doing cardio once a week, HIIT for 15-20 minutes. Im bumping it up to 3x a week starting from today.
Please help me with my cutting plan. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)
