Weight gainers contain a lot of carbs and sugar. Usually, our bodies don't really take very well to that amount of sugar and end up converting and storing it as fat, except post-workout, when simple sugars are utilized the best by the body for replenishing glycogen stores in muscles and to promote some growth. So post-workout would be my advise.

Your training routine is fine, but you need to eat more, a lot more. You're missing a pre and post workout meal as well.

Your routine is not what lowers your bodyfat (ie giving you definition and 'cuts'), that's up to your diet.

Sifus, here goes,

Objective, loose weight and make lean muscle.
Current weight 68, height 165cm, BMI 25

Breakfast = Lowfat milk + Oats

Lunch = 1 slice of bread and apple + 4km incline run 5 times a week + Light weight 5 times a week (the beauty of having gym in the office smile.gif )

Dinner = Fresh cut fruits

Thats all.......been doing so for 3 weeks......
My ON 100% Whey just arrived today....first time bougt.....so dunno how to consume

To put it bluntly, your diet is a mess. Your caloric intake, from what you've listed is way too low. Nevermind even going into the macros. You need to eat more than that. Light weights will not help you build muscle either. I suggest you read through the other pinned threads.

For best results from personal experience, eat some carbs + protein around 1 hr before you hit the gym.

I've had some crazy workouts after popping off a proteinplus powerbar as pre-workout.

I also found, in a pinch, a plus-size snickers/mars bar is a very tasty and energizing preworkout biggrin.gif

I like Boost by Cadbury (I think). Had that with a Redbull as a preworkout two times before and both workouts I hit PRs on various exercises. biggrin.gif

Definitely not for someone on a calorie restricted diet though tongue.gif

I'd go with a boost too. Although, taking that would result me in running like some hyperactive kid instead. laugh.gif

LOL I had a Boost bar and 2 Redbulls before a leg workout once. I was fidgeting away and got really jittery after about 20 minutes or so. Super sugar rush! Felt so hyper. laugh.gif

hey guys...i just checked my body fat percentage, 13.8% ...is it good or should i decrease my BF% to under 10% ? btw, i'm 19 years old...2 weeks ago when i started doing workouts, my BF% was 14.9...now 13.8 ...i read some articles it says that losing fat and building muscle are different things...should i build muscles at this BF% or continue reduce the BF% till i get under 10%?

It's up to you, really. While knowing what percentage of bodyfat you're at can be useful for records or calculating things, what matters more is what you see in the mirror.

If you don't have the weights and volumes of the ingredients you used, you can't calculate how many calories the meal contains.

Approximately 1.5k calories, from 133g protein, 92g fat and 36g carbs. If you've got a smartphone, download the myfitnesspal app. The range of it's food database is pretty good and it's very useful for keeping track of your diet.

Calculate your total calories for maintenance. Take 80% of that like alien9 said and put it aside for a moment. Calculate the calories you'd ingest if you were to aim for 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight and 0.3-0.5g of fat per pound of bodyweight. Subtract that amount from the 80%-value you got earlier, that's the remainder which you can pretty much fill up with carbs. Divide it by 4 to figure out how many grams that is.

I don't go by ratios or percentages because they can get complex sometimes. What I go by now is such:

Protein - 1g per pound of bodyweight is pretty much ideal for people doing resistance training. If you find that recovery is not so good, you can increase protein intake and see if that helps.
Fat - 0.25-0.5g per pound of bodyweight.
Carbs - whatever is required to meet my caloric needs for the day.

Of course, this is not set in stone. It's just another means to an end.

Nothing wrong with it unless you're on a calorie restricted diet in which case you have to see if it fits into your macros.

I still confuse at calculating calorie.. Let's use HL milk as example.. Stated there is 500calories and 50g protein..
The 50g protein x 3 = 150 calories is already in the 500calories or 650 is the correct one?

I'll google for healthy oil then but i don't think its possible cause normally i eat outside..
*
The stated number of calories is the total obtained from the caloric-equivalents of the protein, carbohydrates and fat in the milk. 1g of fat is 9 calories while protein and carbs are 4 calories each. So, it's the former.

Good to see you're tracking your macros.
