I have been (somewhat) regularly lifting weights for nearly a year now. I have certainly seen decent results, and to my knowledge, I am doing things rather optimally.

This is beside the point however. My current intention is to lose as much fat as possible while retaining my muscle mass (cutting ). I have quite a few pounds of fat to lose, and it is difficult to say accurately, but let's say 20.

Currently, my routine is as follows (cutting):

Monday -
Treadmill, 45 minutes @ 150bpm~

Tuesday -
dumbbell benchpress
lat pulldown
shrug
Bike, 45 minutes @ 150bpm~
abs

Wednesday -
Treadmill, 45 minutes @ 150bpm~

Thursday
Clean & Press
Dips
Tricep Extensions
Concentration Curls
Hammer Curls
Bike, 45 minutes @ 150bpm~
abs

Friday -
Treadmill, 45 minutes @ 150bpm~

Saturday -
Squat
Deadlift
Lunge
Calf Press
Bike, 45 minutes @ 150bpm~
abs

Sunday - Rest

I get about 8 hours of sleep a night... I don't have any trouble with that

I consume 5 meals a day... each at 360 calories, and thus, 1800 calories collectively.

Breakfast: I wakeup at around 6:30 and eat an egg omelet. Usually 3 yolks and 8-11 whites. Once and awhile I'll add a slice of cheese so I can actually enjoy it.

Brunch: Tuna sandwich. 2 slices of wheat bread, a can of tuna and a tablespoon of mayo. It could be healthier I'm sure, and maybe I should improve on this.

Lunch: I eat what I call my "lunch" before I workout, and so I eat a baked potato with something (to fulfill my 360 calories). It's for the carbs, not the protein, obviously.

Dinner: I eat dinner, generally speaking, immediately upon coming home. Chicken breast, regularly, I need the protein

Post-Dinner: **** calling this desert. Whatever I can find thats healthy...

So, what do you think?

Looks good man. Seeing as how your goal is to lose fat, I guess the running and stuff is good. I'd say to watch what you eat more than anything else though. I used to be 180 lbs. Now I'm 138-141 lbs. I just stopped drinking soda (all soda...don't care if its diet or what) and had no fast food for maybe...2 years now? Maybe the occasional slice of pizza at a b-day party, but I believe eating healthy will give you a HUGE boost in the weight gain process. At least that's what happened for me. That's all I know about losing weight. I don't wanna give you any bad info (beside bumping this). Er...with the weights, I think someone said to do more reps instead of focusing on putting on mass becaues that's not your goal. You want to keep what you have, so I think more reps tones or muscle or something. Dunno...a little shady on that one, but I remember my eating habits well, so drink lots of water and eat veggies.

Good luck man. We're all in this together.

I wouldn't do squats and deadlifts on the same day.


I'd probably pass out from all that.

It looks like you have everything done well. There is still a tiny bit of room for improvement.

1. Don't do so much cardio. You will lose muscle if you do to much. Lower the amount. Also, intensify the cardio and make it a little shorter and make sure its interval training (If its not all ready).

2. I don't like touching people's workout programs because only they know whats best for them. However, all im going to say is keep an eye out so you dont overtrain.

3. Aim for 6 - 8 meals a day. It speeds up your metabolic rate. Make sure your drinking at least a gallon of water a day.

4. Your diet looks good. I'm not going to change that because at this stage you would have a better idea of your base rate then me.

5. Buy protein powder (i didnt see it in your daily eating schedule but i only skimmed over it). Buy thermogenics, one for pill form to help speed up the metabolism and a syrum one for training to help burn more calories.

Overall it looks great. Good luck.
