    Ditch all the protein shakes and eat some real food.......your routine sounds more like a prison sentence than a workout plan.

    If you're not working for a year sleep more, relax more, read some books, learn a new language, learn a musical instrument and spend a moderate amount of time exercising doing stuff that may be enjoyable (run, bike, swim in the fresh air rather than machines in the gym)

    Uh, yeah.

    An hour of cardio, an hour of resistance, and maybe walking just because you like it with at least one rest day a week...that would be a lot.

    This is silly.

    And eat more. Maybe you don't care much about food, or hate cooking...something. You can keep the protein shakes if you like, but add at least one generous meal. You've got lots of protein so carbs and fat would be good...big plate of fetuccini alfredo w/steamed broccoli and some seasonal fruit for dessert...or a loaded baked potato, fave pizza, a big cheeseburger...whatever.

    I think the fact that you have to ask "is this too much" means you already know the answer. And in case it isn't obvious.

    Yes. This is way, way too much. And way obsessive.

    Ignore all these jealous haters.

    You have to find what works for you.

    You can do it!

    You got this!

    I applaud anyone who can schedule every moment of their day/life because I can't. But *kitten* happens and a schedule like that has got to be difficult to stick to. I'm tired reading it.

    I smell a troll!

    Good luck with your boring gym days and awful protein shake diet - I look forward to seeing the results!

    Oh, and what do you plan to do Fri through Sunday?!

    Lucky you not having to work until 2017 :wink:

    What are you hoping to achieve by following this plan? In other words what are your top 3 goals in order of importance?

    If I didn't have to work until 2017, I'd be travelling and eating and cycling around the world ... not consuming protein shakes or spending my days in a gym.

    Let me guess, you're a NEET that finally broke containment? Tough Internet persona for someone who ate themselves to the point they have to kill themselves for 10 hours a day and relive their glory high school football days to lose weight. All while hiding behind the avatar of a Sith lord.

    You're totally gonna make it.

    So you're just going to completely ignore all the advice you've been given and do what you wanted to, anyway? Sounds about right. Better you than me.
