Re: Weightlifting
i recently started working at a gym and employees get a free membership. i was never really one for working out, but i want to take advantage of having everything at my disposal for free. i talked to the trainer today and he set me up with a program, and while i need to meet with him again to discuss some details, i figured i'd ask you guys for some suggestions and opinions.
the diet/nutrition part of the program is going to be the biggest obstacle for me. he wants me eating a big breakfast, a medium sized lunch, a small dinner, a snack, and a protein shake every day and taking in at least 3,000 calories. of course, that is the exact opposite of how i normally eat. breakfast is rare as i usually don't wake up until almost lunch time, and dinner is always big, with unhealthy snacking done all night.
he said i need to be eating a lot of eggs, chicken, turkey, greens, whole grains, etc, which i'm fine with eating SOME of the time, but not constantly. there is no way i can cut red meat and potatoes out of my diet.
when i meet with him again we'll talk more about the diet, but i want some suggestions from you guys about what you eat for this kind of diet. breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, everything. i need suggestions for different meals and getting to 3,000+ calories a day.
