*Official Fitness Thread*

im 170.i decided to get cut.not really looking to bulk up .

170 and how tall? I'm 170, 6'2", and cut, but I hate it.


I was bored and decided to write my records here. I keep a notebook with me everytime I goto the gym so that I know if I'm going up or down and to remember what I did the previous time, really worth the 2 euros for a little notebook. I usually do everything until I can get a consistent 8 reps each time, then I move up the next week. So you can see there is a couple things that are close or should go up next week.

Thats nice - ur makin some great progress! I hear that P90x really works for folks - keep postin ur progress as the dayz go on.

I just got back in gym like 3 weeks ago @ 325lbs after a long vacation (since Nov.)... Trying to go @ least 4 days a week lookin to shed some weight and get a bit stronger in the process

So right now im doing:
~5 mins cardio (warmup)
~1 hour weight lifting
~35-45mins cardio (elliptical, stairmaster, etc.)

Suppliments I am taking:
Optimum Nutrition Fish Oil Pills - (2) Every morning
Optimum Nutrition Opti-Men Vitamins - (1) With fishoil and (1) with protein shake after workout
Optimum Nutrition Gold standard Whey - (2) Scoops post workout and sometimes the same pre-workout if im on an empty stomach
Superpump 250 - (~1-2) scoops preworkout

My nutrition is probably my worst enemy right now - anyone got a good easy meal plan they'd like to share? Workout routine for shedding weight?

yea i know... but he's a lot taller than me too. so itd even out for me. but i gotta

Think I saw u @ Ballys on commercial last week or atleast ur car

If you're serious I can email you my meal plan. My buddy made it for me and he's a personal trainer/nutritionist. Its been working really well for me and I think I'll reach my goal by the next 4-5 months

Alright I have a little downtime here at school so here it goes:

Your 170 trying to cut. That means for cutting you need 10-13cal per lb of body weight. Now using the common ratio of 40/40/20 of Protein/Carbs/Fat.

Each Gram of Protein = 4 cals
Each Gram of Carbs = 4 cals
Each Gram of Fat = 9 cals

So well take your body weight times 12 (in between 10 and 13) and we come to 2040 cals.

So using 2040cals and the 40/40/20 ratio we get this...

40% of 2040 is 816cals from Protein
40% of 2040 is 816cals from Carbs
20% of 2040 is 408cals from Fat

So then we translate to grams so you can figure what to eat to achieve this..

2040/ 4= 510g of protein a day
2040/ 4=510g of carbs a day
2040/ 9= 226g of fat a day

So then at 5 meals a day your looking at this much per meal...
102g of protein per meal
102g of carbs per meal
45.2g of fat per meal

You can also take out some protein from meals if your taking protein before or after your workouts but that's what your base should look like.

And yes, Ricky Martin is my favorite because I'm him!
