      i take it you are cutting? as james said, you need carb sources for your 2 meals following weights.

      so, low gi carbs such as oats for pre workout

      fast acting carbs such as maltodextrin or dextrose immediately post workout

      then 45 mins to an hour later another carb source but this time a solid source like brown rice, potatoes, even oats again if you must.

      all meals with protein of course.

      doing this however would be more beneficial to the trainer who lifts early on in the day, as then the carbs aren't all taken in the evening.

      thats how i would do it anyway.

        I'm currently cutting and 10 weeks into the MT SUC... I've been following a simular diet to this and the fat has been dropping off!! (and dropping off on the back of already losing over 3 stone).

        Lifting day example:

        5.10am
        Wake

        5.15am
        30 minute fast pace walk carrying a 14lb weighted back pack

        5.50am
        70g Oatmeal
        1 Scoop of Milk Chocolate True Whey

        6.30am
        Train - Legs and Shoulders

        7.30am
        20 Mins Interval Training (Stair Climber)

        8.00am
        Post Workout Shake (1 Scoop)
        Banana

        9.00am
        Chicken Breast (or if having oatcakes I have a Tub of Cottage Cheese)
        50g Oatmeal (or sometimes I have 4 oatcakes)
        1/4 of a Cucumber
        Blueberries

        12.00pm
        Mackerel
        Spinach Salad
        Oil & Seeds for Dressing
