Diet Critique

[britishdragon888]

I'm 35 years old, 5'10" 200lbs 15% bf. I'm currently on 250mg test cyp/wk, 1mg finasteride daily, 0.5mg letrozole 3x/wk year round.

I will plan on doing 500mg test or 250mg test and 250 EQ/wk along with ancillaries year round. My goal is to put on some muscle and lean out a bit.

meal 1: 1/2 cup oatmeal(uncooked) 25g whey protein, 5g fish oil cap
meal 2 : 1 chicken breast, 1/2 cup brown rice (uncooked), 1 tbsp olive oil
meal 3: 50g whey protein, 3 tbsp LBA
meal 4: 1 chicken breast, 1/2 cup brown rice (uncooked), 1 tbsp olive oil
prework out: 25 g whey 50 simple carbs
meal 5: 50g whey protein, 3 tbsp LBA
meal 6: handful broccoli, 1 tbsp olive oil

Is it a good idea to take out whey protein and just take LBA and solid protein sources? What is the benefit not using whey and using LBA as your non-solid protein source? Any advice on the diet or whether it's better to take a test only or test and eq when going year round. I have had tendon problems in the past that's why i'm considering EQ.

Thanks,
Ken

Suggestion, get bloodwork done to see where your test levels are at. I would never recommend all year around unlees you are under a doctor's care and he would never prescibe that much. You will suppress your natural test level too much. That diet is ok, if you plan to lose BF.

^^I agree. Running it year round should only be done under a doctors care and you should have constant blood work done. I would only consider this if I was competing.

Ethics aside, the finesteride may hider some of your results/gains.

I don't know how much experience you have with AAS, but in my case, I honestly don't think I would see much on 250mg of EQ ew. I need at least 400-500mg for EQ to work it's magic on me...and it takes a while to start working. But all year round, I'm sure you would see gains...

Diet looks ok, I have always been a firm believer that you should include red meat in a diet (in any diet), I don't see it on your list. I'd try and substitute some of that whey with real food, like a nice lean piece of beef. If not beef, tuna, white fish, lean cold cuts, etc. I only have protein drinks WITH a meal. Good luck.
