"Diet" that improves strength and performance on field

Russian Rocket · 10-06-14, 01:05 PM

well done Zacher

I'm interested to see the actual time (it can be approximate) when you take those meals in...like for example do you eat your dinner before a certain time...say 6PM? do you have a little snack after that before you go to bed?

I've been exercising and playing sports my entire life and as I get older and my metabolism slows down I'm forced to eat my dinners as early as possible.
Just curious to see what other folks do.

If you want any additional information just message me. Happy to help.

Sheet 1 is the breakdown of meals
Sheet 2 is the calories in each type of food
Sheet 3 is the weekly grocery list.

I stopped reading here. Enjoy the meat dude.

Pretty typical high protein low carb diet . But so boring, same meals every day even twice a day

What's your lifting schedule like?

zacher · 10-06-14, 02:12 PM

will post before and after pictures 01/2015 - that will give me 3 full months in the diet and 1 month of offseason in December

I lift only Mon Wed and Fri -- mixture of multi muscle group power exercises with some small muscle group movements

My daily schedule - doesn't vary much as I am pretty busy between athletics school and work

Breakfast - 630~640am
Snack 1 - 10am
Lunch - 12pm~1pm
Snack 2 (if training days) - 3pm
Pre - 530pm
Post - 830pm
Dinner - 9pm

I eat late after I get home from practices…. usually around 9 by the time I get to eat…also means I am rarely hungry before bed so typically I move my nighttime snack to mid day as my days are longer before I get home…

any other questions don't hesitate… will try to answer the best I can..

I am not perfect don't claim to be ascetically but - 4x high school all american, 3x collegiate all american and on the national team radar is hard to argue against.

results work when you work for them.

Good luck and keep us posted. I need to lose about 30 pounds so I'll be looking into your posted spreadsheet file.

Bostongambler · 10-06-14, 03:26 PM

Good luck. Keep us posted.

Ok so not trolling here

if you need to cut at 23 then you have a body type predisposed to gain weight and need to focus on this shit today. So good for you that you are on it, but seriously this is a lifestyle choice.

no worries… and I never said I was "cutting" did I? I am more focused on my diet in relation to my performance on the field.

and like I said earlier its not about how I look its about how I feel and how many more plays I am able to make in the game because of my diet.

And no I am no predisposed to gain weight. I hover around 255 and thats what I feel comfortable playing at...I was sidelined due to injury and was eating like I was still practicing. This is a kickstarter.

Needs more variety. Good luck though, it is a clean diet just a very, very boring one. Start looking for foods to substitute for sweet potatoes and salads and Canadian bacon, like real bacon. You do that and you've got a chance to stay with it but following this diet to a T, I don't see how you'll last more than a few months on it

THam12 · 10-07-14, 12:26 PM

Where do you play?

TheMetsSuck · 10-07-14, 02:14 PM

at 23 what performance on the field do you speak of? friday night softball games with a keg at home plate?

Well, the CUT MEAL PLAN spreadsheet kind of threw me off but whatever. Good luck man.
