Need some eating advice
Hello,
I've been dedicated to lifting for 1 and 1/2 years. In the past 6 months I've went from 163 lbs to 188 lbs. Currently on my first cycle Test E 600mg/week Deca 300mg/week.
Stats:
5'5"
Male..
186-188 lbs
big gut but low bf everywhere else..? I'll post a pic once I have a camera ..
I'm having trouble gaining weight as of recent. It seems if I eat more than usual I put on a ton of fat and literally no extra muscle, which I can tell from a mirror.
My diet is more of a feel, and I don't count calories or protein, but I got a rough idea.
Here is the breakdown:
First thing when I wake up:
Protein shake Pro Complex 2 scoops 60g protein
Can of tuna 26g protein
If I work in am then it's can of tuna for lunch and another for 10 minute break
I get home at 3:30 and eat by 4:
.5 lb steak with 1 cup of brown rice
At 7 pm I eat another .5lb steak with another 1 cup of brown rice
9 pm I eat whole wheat spaghetti with 93% lean ground beef, .5lb
I make the spaghetti last for 2 nights
I also drink a protein shake after workout, and Karbolyne (50g carbs) after workout.
Before sleep half of a protein shake and 1 cup of greek yogurt.
I do not know how many calories nor protein this is, but I'm packing on fat and not gaining much muscle.
Any advice is well appreciated! Thank you.

I take .25 caber E3D quality, I paid a lot for it.. Adex .25mg EOD.
PCT is plain and simple N 40/40/20/20 C 100/100/50/50..
So move carbs around?
I'm 22, and I've been lifting steadily for 1 and 1/2 years, but altogether not including breaks, 5 years now.
I've done enough research on Deca as first cycle as well, and I understand there are risks. It's not as if I'm taking Tren for my second cycle, or hell I've seen people take it for their first. I was going to run EQ but I'm afraid of high RBC.. I'm half way through cycle I can't just drop it anyways.
On the note of varying protein, where do people buy fish..? And I don't mean pay 5.99 per lb, I mean bulk. I can't seem to find any, and those which are frozen are 9.99 for 2 filets, and 19.99 for 5 filets. If I ate 1 fish a day that would equate to 35$ a week in just fish..?
Thanks for the help guys!
Much appreciated
sams club is great for bulk buys
Hmm I didn't even think about that! Thanks.
First off drop that deca NOW.. Do you have caber? do you know where to get real caber? (caber is faked very often) You'll spend more money on that than the deca to top it all.. deca will wreck you if you don't know how to handle a 19nor because you build up prolactin which is for pregnant women.. For your first cycle deca is a big big no no (there are tons of safer options if you HAVE to have a 2nd compound).. For your own sake drop it and do test only. The others have you covered on nutrition. Just being honest
dont forget your fats, very important
if you have an iphone download the app called "myfitness pal"
it will help you track macros so you can see what % of your total caloric intake is from protein, carbs, and fat.
i always shoot for a 40protein/40carb/20 fat ratio to keep gains lean.
how old are you? you say you've only been lifting for a little over a year... and you're on your first cycle. why are you running test and deca? take it slow my man, try one compound at a time... and if/when you decide to run another cycle in the future then start adding new compounds in. and how is your PCT looking?
Dude , I have My Fitness Pal and it rocks! good shit. My advice, dont do AAS if your out of shape, look like shit, depressed, on your period....whatever. Theres so much good info on every BB forum its tough not to gain enough knowledge to get quality gains from Diet alone. If your diet sucks so will your cycle...and your life pretty much. Poor diet and AAS = depression, bloat, anxiety...nothing good really
you are carrying your carbs too late in the day. also if you are gaining dirty you should try a carb cycle. you also have a big gap between your breakfast shake and tuna and the next meal...eat smaller meals more often
X2. Too little carbs early in the day and too much late in the day. Need to try and vary your protein sources wherever possible.
