The only supplement that I am taking is PHD Synergy all in one. I took this first thing in the morning when I got up out of bed. I will begin to take it after training also. To help my muscles recover.

My food intake for today consisted of the following: Breakfast: 8.30am : Porridge and half a tin of peaches 11am : banana 1pm : Rice and cooked chicken fillets 3.30pm : Apple 6pm : Rice and cooked chicken I was up at the crack of dawn this morning 6 am. I was in the gym for 6.3am as that is the time it opens. Today’s weight program was to concentrate on chest exercises: Bar bell bench press: Dumbell bench press: Incline dumbell bench press: Decline bar bell bench press: Peck deck: Press ups: I was then at water polo from 8-10 we did a lot of swimming which would be good for burning fat. 5 X 200 metres From tomorrow I will be starting a thirty day course of PHD Synergy – ISO – 7. This formula is the supposedly all in one solution. Here are the details for anyone that is interested: Container Size: 2kg Amount Per Serving:
Methyl-T3- Strength Stack (330mg):
Ingredients: I have picked this for a number of reasons. I have tried Muscletech creatine and PHD protein on its own. This one apparently has the creatine and protein combined. The main reason on picking this is the cost. As you all know this stuff does not come cheap. I have spoke to a few friends that have taken this and they recommend the all in one synergy. I have also heard people talking about Inferno. Which is an aggressive fat burner. I may do a bit of Googling to see if I can find any more details on this. If you know anything about it let me know by posting. I am also open to suggestions on my diet and any of the supplements I may be taking. I will start with what I plan to eat for the day. Not forgetting my treat day! Friday is going to be my treat day in which I will no doubt over indulge my favorite foods. PIZZA PIZZA PIZZA!! Chips and a chilli dip. i could eat that right now! I plan to stick to this every day except on my treat day. 6am :: Shake – PHD Synergy – ISO – 7 (All in one, more about this later) 11am :: Porridge, with half a tin of peaches 1pm :: Rice (half a packet) cooked Chicken breast 3.30pm :: Fruit of some description (apple, banana, orange etc.) 6pm :: Rice (the other half) cooked Chicken breast The above is going to be my diet guideline and I will write exactly what I have ate for the day. I will be truthful and document whenever the temptation of crips, chocolate or take away food gets the better of me! But I’ll try to be strong – lol! Hello folks, I am not too sure how many people have read the information on vitamincache. I know I have not updated it in awhile. I have been thinking about this site and what it is I would like to do with it. So this is what I have came up with. I will give a bit of a background to myself first. I am 31 years old and have trained, mostly, all of my life. I play water polo competitively and also partake in a spot of MMA when the water polo season is over. As the season only runs for 6 months. Like most people I have battled with my weight over the years and I feel my main down fall is my love for food. A quick search on GOOGLE on healthy diets, diet pills, supplements etc etc etc. will return millions of results. I have looked at many diets and half halfheartedly gave them a go. So what I aim to do with this blog, is to keep a daily diary of my eating habits, training program and any supplements I may take. I suppose having it on “paper” so to speak will give me a good over view of where I am going wrong in my life time search for the 6 pack everyone wants – lol!

When dining out it is important not to abandon your diet!! A big steak dinner, Chinese, pizza, lets face it we all love dining out. However, there is no reason why eating out can not be a healthy choice. It is important to watch for hidden fats and calories when dining out in a restaurant. It is not possible for you to check a food label to find the amount of calories, fat or salt that is contained in the meal. You can find tips to help you not abandon your diet and continue on the healthy path. As we all know too well trying to eat the correct foods and not over indulge in the nice ones is the single most hardest thing to do when trying to lose weight. The main factors of a healthy diet are eating the right amount of food for how active you are and eating a wide range of foods to ensure you are getting a balanced diet. You have to ask yourself which diet is right for you? The following tips can be used as a base when trying to adapt a healthy lifestyle: Never skip breakfast Some people are of the opinion that skipping breakfast will help them lose weight. But missing meals doesn’t help us lose weight and it isn’t good for us, because we can miss out on essential nutrients needed to carry out our dily activities. Evidence suggests that those who eat a well ballanced healthy breakfast will lose weight quicker than those who don’t. A healthy start to your day may consist of wholegrain cereal with low fat milk, sliced fruit and a glass of fruit juice. Drink plenty of water We should drink between 6-8 glasses of water a day. If we are dehydrated are bodies can fool us into thinking we are hungry. Less sugar Artificial sugars are hidden in most foods and most people in the UK are consuming too much sugar. Eat fish We should be eating at least one portion of oily fish a week. It is a good source of protein and contains many beneficial vitamins and minerals. Fruit and veg Although we are all aware that fruit and veg is very good for us, we still do not eat enough of it. The rule is to eat 5 portions a day. This sounds like a lot but is easier done than you think. It doesn’t matter too much in how you get it, they can be fresh, frozen, tinned or dired. As long as you are eating your 5 potions of fruit and veg a day. Sticking to these guidlines for a healthy diet will get you well under way to burning that fat Protein is considered by sports scientists as a vital nutrient to maintain and develop lean muscle What is protein? Protein is a vital nutrient that your body needs every day. Carbohydrates provide your body with energy, whilst protein helps your muscles to recover and repair more quickly after exercise. Foods high in protein include whey, fish, chicken, eggs, dairy produce (such as milk, cheese and yoghurt), beef and soya. What are the benefits of protein? Any form of training will increase your protein requirements. A lack of quality protein will result in loss of muscle tissue and tone, a weaker immune system, slower recovery and lack of energy. If your goal is to put on muscle and increase strength or even reduce bodyfat, whilst maintaining definition and tone, extra protein from high quality sources is a must. Should you use protein? Protein is an essential nutrient for anyone wanting to keep lean and build muscle or just tone up. If you don’t get enough protein in your diet, then your body breaks down its own muscle (your own source of protein) so it can be converted into energy. Regular exercise increases your need for protein. Failing to get enough protein on a daily basis dramatically reduces your ability to develop muscle, recover fully from training or maintain muscle whilst dieting. |
