Monday is Doomsday, Hardcore Plan

Training Beginners
41

Ignoring the assholes.

Day 1:
WEIGHT: 203.3 (This is down from last weeks 206.7! without a diet!)

Breakfast @ 9:00 Hardboiled egg/lettuce on wheat toast. Oatmeal w/ a spoon of natural peanut butter. (This was difficult to eat, too much food)

Lunch @ 12:00 Turkey Sandwich on wheat bread. Apple, Water, some sunchips (not even half the bag, but enough to fill some calories.)

Snack @ 6:00pm 1 can of Tuna, a cup of salt less nuts. A few tbsp of natural peanut butter

WORKOUT
30 minute run, covered 3.5 miles

(8 minute miles, not too bad for a “beginner” of sorts. Also, it was on a hill incline on a machine) My heart rate was kind of high… 180~ ish from 10 mins in to end

::Chest fly, 3x30 with heavy weight, slow, thorough movements.
::Reverse chest fly? Not sure on what to call it… works triceps too. 3x30
::45LB curl, 3 sets of 30… full curls on a ‘curling bench’

thats it for lifting today, I will definitely do more tomorrow. Including legs.

I will be getting more protein for dinner tonight.

You know what, just do what you can with what you have. My wife constantly complains about how much food I eat and how much of the food budget is for me.

Just know that you will get less than optimal results.

you would probably get more responses in the strength sports forum.

Hangerbaby, I’m done with you you are a complete moron who has already done a lot to tarnish their name on tnation in under 50 posts. You have no idea what you’re talking about and you do not have the dedication to lose the hairy gut you posted in your other thread. This also will be my last post here, but just to let you know. You aren’t smart, get over yourself, Some people actually say the word “hardcore” when something is “hardcore” not twatish.

Your I.Q. is comparable to room temperature.
Thank you for your meaningless, angsty and foolish posts.

Please return to the man/boy love forum, where you belong.

You are trying alienate everyone who tells you what you need to hear. If you don’t want advice then run your plan as is and SHOW us how much smarter you are than those who chimed in here.

Thats not the case

I am ignoring the broken record
however, I take to heart what people like kinein, mrw and sawadeekdrob have said.

If you ignore everyone elses post, they actually are helpful and that should reflect in my status update…

Value this–!
I don’t have these kinds of things, or resources.

So far I’ve worked in a few hardboiled eggs a day, some natural peanut butter. Tuna in a can. etc.

EVERY DAY

and it is a financial BURDEN to eat all of this.

Not to mention I just don’t have the appetite required for that much food![/quote]

Why do you assume that you are this special snowflake here who’s life is hard while everyone else’s is soley based on eating right?

I have a cooler I carry around every day that has 3-4 meals in it, some shakes some solid meals. I prep it all the night before when most people are watching Lost or Desperate Housewives so I am not rushing to cook 6 times a day. I carry it with me to class, to work(and yes I get taunted about it). Can/are you willing to do this?

a dozen eggs is about 2 dollars
a jar of natural peanut butter is 3-4 dollars
a can of tuna is 35-65 cents

Are you that hurting for money? I’m well aware what eating on a budget is like as a full time college student who puts myself through school/pays all my own bills, but if you can’t afford THAT amount of food then something needs to change. If you really are in a dire financial situation then unfortunately you will have to readjust priorities. You seem to have the internet and a computer, but no money for good food. Do you have a job? What’s your weekly food budget?

And you better believe most people don’t start off with the appetite for this. Some of us have gone through that force feeding stage(and probably will have to again) where our bodies simply don’t want to accept any more food and wants to stay as is, but we get it through our heads that his is an absolute must and the food goes down 5-7 times a day no matter what. Will you do this or will you just tell us you aren’t that hungry again?

So far you’ve come across as a person who either won’t tell people about this terrible situation that they live in and can’t afford the lifting life style because of it, OR someone who just wants to whine and complain about how hard it is and will never get anywhere significant with this. Which is it?

I stretch 20 dollars a week for groceries, and managed to put down 1-2 lbs of chicken or beef per day and get 300+ grams of protein. If you want it, you will find a way or make a way. If you dont, you probably just didnt want it.

I’ve put in my time in the weightroom, I’ve fine tuned my diet (well, when I was cutting, now I eat junk food here and there). I’ve used my experience in what has/hasn’t worked and given it to people here. ANd some people respect that and you apparently don’t. Yet again if you have any more comments to make on me you can take it to my log in strength sports, and we can hammer out everything wrong I do there.

This thread has been quite entertaining. Continue.

If you want some quick and dirty dinners. Buy a hunk of steak. Cut it up and put it in individual baggies, throw in freezer. Pull one out each day.

For the record, it’s easier to help price what’s in your budget once the dollar amount has been clarified.

Was this a play around and feel workout?

54

Doomsday huh…?

Didn’t post your goals or your stats either… though your thread was mildly entertaining.

Carrots do not count as a meal. Grapes alone do not either. A cup of grapes is barely 100 calories. Eat it with a meal, not alone.

Get more protein, a lot more. Unless you’re <120 pounds, you need a lot more calories also.

Cardio after lifting or at a separate time/day.

Grow! Whey is 30 bucks for 70 servings of 22g of protein. I have yet to find a cheaper source today (used to be able to get 5lbs for ~20, but those days are over). Tuna, eggs, bulk chicken breast, and milk are your next cheapest choices, and they’re actually a little more expensive.

Last, get a job, grow up.

One of my problems is that I cannot eat all of the food you guys are recommending me. It is extremely difficult to down more than a bowl of oatmeal in the morning… My appetite is rare, and when it arises I can kill it with the smallest of meals.

I am eating well enough now to know that I am getting adequate protein (roughly 70-120g of protein a day)

My main focus right now is cardio… so if you think my weightlifting is down… please realize I am working my ass off on the track, or on a stair stepper. I am pushing 30+ minutes of cardio a day. I have already lost a good amount of weight while I was NOT dieting… which I attribute to a mile a day.

I am getting several mixed messages on this board, some say interval training…others say consistent training.

Today I did shrugs, triceps, calves, hamstrings, situps, and then I ran out of time (dentist appointment)

For breakfast
I made an egg sandwich (2 eggs), oatmeal with natural peanut butter in it, a big glass of OJ and some unsalted nuts.

eating isnt allowed in school, I dont know how much I can stress this, it really gets in the way… I think I am gonna start packing my nuts and bringing them to school (literally and figuratively :wink:

Lunch I had the same thing as yesterday… Turkey sandwich on wheat, lettuce w/ that… an apple, 2% milk and some water.

After Workout: Can of Tuna, Banana

Dinner I will be having spaghetti with a large salad, going to scarf down some unsalted nuts, maybe an egg before bed or something… not sure.

Is spaghetti a good dinner? I thought we werent supposed to have a lot of carbs at night.

You have been lifting for a year. Thats not “putting in your time”, its “getting started”.

I’m nowhere near a wimp even with a shitty diet

how many worthless douchebags ARE on this forum?

Someone point me in the direction of “Mature, experienced dieters and lifters willing to help out inexperienced dieters, experienced lifters”

Seriously.

So many of your posts need to be DELETED…
