Hey guys, just looking for some little input on a sample diet for my first test e cycle. Here’s background info:
22 y/o
208lbs, 13% bf
Training consistently for nearly 3 years
Will be running 15 weeks of test e at 500mg, split sun/wed
Current diet is as follows:
Meal 1:
50g whey
Meal 2:
1 hamburger patty
1 turkey burger patty
1 cup cooked rice
1 large handful of spinach
Meal 3: Post-WO
6oz 2% milk
1 cup greek yogurt
1 scoop whey
1 banana or 1 cup of frozen berries
(thrown in blender)
Meal 4:
2 turkey burgers
1 handful spinach
Meal 5:
3 whole eggs
or
1 cup greek yogurt+berries
Meal 6:
25g whey
Macros are roughly 2800 cals, 260g pro, 120g carbs, 60g fat,
I’d like to keep this template as similar to this as possible, just increasing/decreasing portion size where needed.
What should my daily macros look like if I’m looking to gain as much mass as possible on this cycle?
I’d shoot for minimum of 300g protein per day, closer to 400 being ideal for you.
I’d up those carbs quite a bit too.
Could you maybe add in 1-2 servings Surge Recovery during/after the workout?
Meal 5 looks kind of weak. Eat more eggs, possibly even just some additional egg whites (though I hate the idea of throwing out the yolk)
Meal 6, double the shake at least

more carbs, more total calories
If this is your first cycle i think you want to maximize muscle gain (because loosing fat is easier). I think you need ATLEAST 3500 kcals when you do your first cycle. I can almost guarantee that you won’t gain much fat if you train your ass off and eat 3500 kcal of semi-healthy protein-rich foods.
If you want to keep this template and the super healthy eating here are my suggestions.
meal 1 -
Add 2 teaspoons of olive oil in the shake and eat a fruit with it.
meal 2 -
You can add peanutbuttersauce to this making it tasteful or just add loads of beans, both choices would add healthy calories.
meal 3 -
I would add a preworkout, periworkout and postworkout. Why not max it if your compromising your health with steroids! Try eating around 100 grams of protein and something similar in fast acting carbs around workout. (i know its a mild cycle, but still)
meal 4 -
same as meal 2.
meal 5
I agree with J-Fitness. I never eat eggs unless i have like 6.
meal 6.
Double the protein shake and add olive oil and some peanut butter or just raw nuts.
Supplement wise i would add fish oil since it doesn’t seem like you eat any fish.
Also the following supps are recommended on cycle:
Vitamin E (testicle protection)
B-vitaminComplex (liver)
Milk thistle (liver)
Saw palmento (prostate and estrogen control)
- Just google if you need a references for these statements. That’s what i did. I know these are not all proven but it can’t hurt to be careful.

Ps
I would seriously eat cheatmeals several times a week to pack in the calories but that’s just me
