My training and lifts are as follows:
Squat 405 5rm
Front squat 315 3rm
Bench press 300 1rm
Deadlift 475 1rm
Power clean 265 1rm
I use multiple sets along with reps ranging from 1-3 reps to 4-6 reps. I stick mainly to these exercises along with other accessory work. These exercises are usually very intense and I try to burn as much calories as I can by keeping the intensity and my weights high.
I lift 5 days a week and along with cardio on the days I work out.
On average I get around 200-250 grams a day of protein and I always keep that high. I have a tendency to gain fat easy if I eat to many carbs throughout the day, Even good carbs! I always keep my fat intake up and I consume omega 3 as much as I can during the day.
Should I cut out all carbs besides Veggies?
My goal is to continue lifting heavy while I keep calories fairly low and try to burn fat.
I want to lose around 10 lbs and I know my diet isn’t what it should be. I feel like I go below 2500 calories some days and i think it really hurts my fatloss. Also If I am trying to lose bodyfat should I be taking Surge?
Counting calories is a huge hassle but if it comes down to it then I can make it a part of my routine. Any help or comments are greatly appreciated.
thanks, I’ve already gone there and I have calculated my daily intake. I think this will be very helpful because of the custom food tab , which is pretty cool.
I Found my daily intake to be 2500 calories which is 600 below my maintnece . Is that to much below what I need to eat, considering I am training for an hour and doing cardio for 30mins a day? ?
I’ve done the V-diet before and loved it, lost around 25lbs in 5 weeks. I am very dedicated and I can always complete a task that I have in mind. My problem is that I know I will have to work extra hard to lose my last lbs. calorie counting is new to me and I will have to find that perfect balance in order to lose sufficient weight without sacrificing muscle.
I calculated everything I will be eating for the next few days. I plan on reaching 2800 calories a day. I want to start my fats high and cut more carbs once I get a feel of how my body does on low carb. How much fat should I eat?? My protein is around 280g, fat intake is 120-130g and my carb intake will be from 100-120g. That is around 45/45/10 split.
