This is a little plan I've put together geared toward building muscle + burning any excess fat at the same time
Of course, I'll have variations so this isn't some rigid regime but rather a general sketch
First, for the eating: heavy in protein, fiber; moderate carbs; some healthy fat (monounsaturated, etc). I'm thinking to split it up so that I have more, less portioned meals than fewer, larger meals
-------------
9:00 - Breakfast
- Oats (such as oatmeal)
- Protein shake
- Fruit
12:00 - Lunch
Lean meat; vegetables; whole grains
3:00 - Snack
Almonds or other nuts; fruit
5:00 - Snack
All natural peanut butter (sandwhich, celery, w/e)
7:30 - Dinner
Lean meat, vegetables, grains
Throughout all of that, of course, I would drink plenty of water.
And as for my exercise plan, I will have intensive cardio 5 days a week (at least 45 min.) and working on the muscle groups of abs and upper body, arms, legs
For the muscle groups, I will have intensive training with heavy weights (as opposed to daily with lighter weights) and do so with a few days in between for rest; so if I work on a specific one, I can let it rest and the other days I can work on another group, and cycle that way
Any feedback?
