Default Having your diet analyzed...!!

For anyone posting their diet up in this new section it would also help if you could include the following information...
(1) Height
(2) Weight
(3) Age
(4) Training goal
(5) How many times you train per week
(6) Approximate serving size of food (this would help greatly)

Cant analyze your diet if you havent posted it up....

But if you want to see how to construct a nutrition plan Look Here this will give you all the info that you require, including working out how many calories you are burning off and how to construct an eating plan for you required amount of calories...

Hi, I was wondering if someone can check out my diet and see what they think. So far I believe I am on track, I need to remove some fat I believe, probably out of my health shake might be best.

(1) 5'10"
(2) 205
(3) 28
(4) To loose weight (fat), tone up
(5) 5 times per week, bike for an hour, about 23 kms (14 miles) at about 20-30 kph (10-20 mph)
(6) Servings are based on calories to make up the require calories, carbs, protein and fat per day.

If anymore details are required just let me know and I can tell you.


EDIT: Later in the spreadsheet I removed my post-workout section. I decided just to merge into all into three fields. So whenever you see me taking a Amino Vital drink thats when I did my workout. I skipped a few days in this spreadsheet though, working on the house alot. I weighed myself on the 8th of August I believe at 205, I feel lighter since then but I won't be weighing or measuring myself till September 8th.

Your calorie intake (to lose max 2 lb per week) if you are normally sedentary through the day, and only perform the cycling with no weights or other training except cycling should be 2155, calories per day. Dont try to lose more than 2lb per week unless you want to lose muscle and hold onto fat....

Thanks, I plan to start lifting weights in the gym 3 days a week and biking only 2 days a week. Will this throw me for a loop with my current diet?

At your bodyweight your cycling will use up approx 900 calories per session, so if you cut back by three sessions of cycling, and do three sessions of weight training, then you will only be using up 512 calories per session instead of 900, so you should cut the calories by approx 170 per day....

For losing bodyfat use a combination of diet and cardio, use weight training to keep the lean body mass, which involves heavy training and reps no more than 10
