Chill. Basically there will always be discrepancies in such definitions, as research and HC professionals are constantly changing their mind on which are the 'cleanest' foods to include in your diet etc. We have macros which we set according to our goals. eating clean means getting all your macros from the healthiest…

Was just what caught my eye when looking at the food diary. I just try and think whats the most nutrients and macros i can get out of my calorie allowance. Was just thinking you could get more bang for ya buck with swapping the peanut butter and pizza for something better.

LOL. pizza and peanut butter over skinless chicken and spinach? Is this real life?

this ... But realistically, just eat to nourish your body. Get plenty of fruits, veggies, grains, lean proteins, healthy fats. While eating at a caloric deficit.

LOL at not knowing what a clean diet is.

Also stop eating pizza and peanut butter. have chicken and spinach for lunch.

Your protein intake is far too small. the numbers on the scale will go down on this diet but you will be shedding lots of muscle as well as fat. i would raise your protein intake to 1.5 grams per KG of LBM to minimise muscle loss..... Also i find carb cycling the best way to lose fat at a high rate.

Same

Your muscle will become accustomed to your work load and the soreness will be far less intense after future session. Best thing at the moment is to rest ..... If you have soreness in your joints and tendons after working out Glucosamine Sulphate works wonders in my experience.

Your best bet is to look at the stickies and articles on bodybuilding.com. And if you don't find the answer there you could then ask this question on the nutrition section of their forum.

What are your current macros?

Start making your own meals. You know whats in it then and you can make sure your hitting your targets. Make a list of healthy foods which are high in nutrients and low in fat. Stick to these. Eat lean protein a lot more. It's generally low in fat and cals. Plus it can fill you up. Fill your meals out with leafy greens. Be…

^^^ ha ha, I know what your saying. I just wanted him to look like a beast as well as developing core strength lol :wink:

Second this :) ..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OzcnzvHo88 This man is brilliant. Last few mins of vid are pure motivation

looking good. Once you get to your goal adapt your plan for maintenance of what you have achieved :)

Lean protein is fish, skinless chicken and tuna etc. Cooked in a healthy way. I would consider un-lean to be fat covered pork, lamb with more fat than meat (which seems to be most) etc

I would suggest that you do strength traing 5-6 days a week, focusing on one muscle group each day. Chest - Monday. Back - Tuesday. Shoulders - Wednesday. Arms - Thursday. Legs - Friday. Once you develop a training programme you will find that you are both isolating muscles to grow but also increasing core strength.... If…

In order to make sure you are loosing fat and not muscle this way you need to make sure that a lot of your calories come from lean protein and that you are weight training.... forgot to add this to last reply

I loose quicker not eating back. I think that's the best way if it suits you.
