Time to get shreaded!!!!
I just ordered a personalized diet from Mike Davies at The Fitness Factory. Anyone have experience with him? Ive been having a hard time with my diet and Im ready to get shreaded. Who better to consult than a pro?
I have no problem staying on my diet. Its just that Im not sure Im eating correctly. I know for sure Im not eating often enough and I am killing myself to eat over 1100 cal a day. I think I just need it planned out hour by hour for me.
I checked my bodyfat and its 20%!!! My ultimate goal is to get under 15% by Chirstmas. Its really hard right now because Im in my last semester and I have clinicals 3 days a week on top of class. I know…Im whinning, but I need to vent sometimes.
So, Ive been doing cardio 5x a week and training 3. Im thinking Im going to change my split to 4x a week and increase the cardio to 6. Heres my plan:
Mon: Legs/abs/30min jog
Tue: back/bi’s/ 20min HIIT/40min eliptical
Wed: Chest/tri’s/60 min step class
Thu:Shoulders/abs/60 min bodypump class
Fri: 60min bodypump class/60 min step class
Sat: 20 min HIIT/40 min run
Sun: Off
Any suggestions?
XOXO

Let me know how the diet goes from Mike Davies. I have heard of him- but I don’t know anyone who has worked with him. He will definitely increase your cals. They are way low for your height and activity.
I wouldn’t add any more cardio if I was you. Getting your diet in check might just do it for you! Save the cardio for later if you need it so your body won’t adapt to it.
Do you teach aerobics or just like taking classes?

Just like the classes. I just got my diet last night, and its very very strict. Im game though. I haven’t figured out the macros, but it starts with 4egg whites, with 1 cup tomatos and spinich before am cardio. Then, 2/3 c oats with 20g low fat protein mixed in, then 5-7oz chicken with 2/3c green beans, and 3oz yams, then 3oz tuna, 10 almonds, 2c spinich, 4 cherry tomatos and 3 celery sticks with small amt of balsamic viniger on the salad. Then one whole grapefruit and choice of 4oz chicken if Im hungry (like Im gonna be eating all this food
) Then 4 oz orange roughy and a plain rice cake, then train and another 35 min of cardio, then 2oz flank steak, 2oz chicken, 5oz yam, and last but not least, 1 sugar free popsickle. Also, I have my supplements like glutamine, bcomplex, thermos, vitamins, vit c, and 2 gal water / day.
Ill keep up to date on my progress.
Thanks, for the info

Good luck with your diet! I always wonder if I could stay very strict for moths. The best I could do so far is 3 weeks - got amazing results back then. Last week was crazy-eating week for me I ate a lot and everything. I will use your dieting as support for myself to get back to tuna and vegetables. Do you get to have some cheat days in this eating plan? For how long you will do it?

I got one from him and was not impressed at all. I could give you a list of reasons but would rather not totally bash the guy in public. If you want to know my experience shoot me a msg. IF I ever went to a pro again I would go with Maggie Duibaldo.
