Bout to order some L-Glutamine, BCAAs and Dextrose from bulknutrients. Just wondering are they all used for PWO only? If they are then I'm just gonna make a PWO drink with all of it plus my protein and water.


Yes all postworkout add them all to the shake
 
1. 5-6 Weetbix w/low fat milk, 3 pieces of toast w/vegemite, 30g WPC w/low fat milk, glass of orange juice.

2. Three quarters of a 425g can of tuna in springwater on 5 VitaWheat biscuits, 1 banana or muesli bar, 30g WPC in water.

3. Meal 3 (lunch) varies a fair bit. Usually something like a 400g can of baked beans on 2 pieces of toast, 1 banana, left over tuna mixed with a bag of Uncle Ben's pre-cooked rice.

4. 30g WPC in water, 1 teaspoon of Creatine.

5. Steak OR chicken OR pasta with mince in it, green vegetables, large serve of low fat yogurt with muesli mixed through it for dessert.

6. 30g WPC with low fat milk before bed.

That's a typical weekday for me, on the weekends it changes a bit I tend to throw a pizza or there and will miss a meal or two. I'm currently trying to bulk up, I'm 6ft and 89kg and I am finding it hard to put on more weight. I never used to eat butter and never cooked with oil etc but lately I have to try and get a more more calories in. I'm struggling to break 90kg. Any thoughts/tips would be appreciated.

When do you train in the day aswell, like morning night?

I'll wait to see what Derka says 1st before commenting.
 
I use shakes mixed with oats and a few other things and class them as a meal. It's too hard to consistently maintain a diet of 6 solid food meals a day. Being consistent means making it easy.

Totally agree, I did the proper food thing for 8-9 meals a day, while it's hella good, it's expensive, very time consuming and the logistics of getting it to work (Uni) is insane, you end up carrying a mass of tupperware containers everywhere.
 
I just ate 4 pork chops, with veges and salad, it was to die for, anyone got any idea how much protein is in pork chops?

Add 500-1000ml milk or protein shake

I train at night, around 6:30pm. I have meals 5 and 6 after gym.

2. Three quarters of a 425g can of tuna in springwater on 5 VitaWheat biscuits, 1 banana or muesli bar, 30g WPC in water. (up it to 8 viatwheats or 2 bananas)

3. Meal 3 (lunch) varies a fair bit. Usually something like a 400g can of baked beans on 2 pieces of toast, 1 banana, left over tuna mixed with a bag of Uncle Ben's pre-cooked rice. (make sure your having the tuna it's important as baked beans arn't a complete source of protein)

4. 30g WPC in water, 1 teaspoon of Creatine. (dextrose here if it's a postworkout)

5. Steak OR chicken OR pasta with mince in it, green vegetables, large serve of low fat yogurt with muesli mixed through it for dessert.

6. 30g WPC with low fat milk before bed.

7 30g micellar protein 250ml low fat milk with 1 tablespoon of natural peanut butter

Do you do cardio?
 
Derka's suggestions are good, a little extra here and there at each meal and you will be upping the calories by a lot over the course of the day. Do you work? If so is it an active job? Also look at chowing down a lot more post workout, you can usual get in a lot of calories at that time due to an increased appetite for repair.
 
No, I don't do any cardio. I used to run on the treadmill and play basketball but gave both of them up about 2 months ago.


good, add in those changes and give it a month, then if the weights not going up we'll add a few more cals
 
I just made a batch of soup and am currently having some.

It contains; potato, celery, parsley, brocolli, cauliflower, carrot, onion, zuchini, pasta, chicken, some olive oil when cooking chicken and vegtable stock powder.

It tastes ok but i still havent refined my recipe yet.
 


Food for next 4-5 days, more like 3 days, had to walk to the shops today, couldn't carry everything. 7 litres of milk, 1kg rump steak, 1kg chicken breast, 600 grams beef, 4x 185grams tuna, 3x 95 gram tuna, 700 grams mixed nuts, few cans of corn, tub of yoghurt, 1 kg mixed vegetables ( not shown )
