Hey.
I’m planning to start the journey on October 11th. Needed some guidance/review to fill in the parts that I might have missed? (PS: Cut or bulk first?)

VITAL STATISTIC
Gender: F
Age: 19
Weight: 55.5kg
Height: 156.5cm
Others: I have asthma?
---
Aim: Like every female's dream, abs.
—————

#1 - CUT PHASE

(i) [b]Supplements:

-Hydrolyzed whey protein
-Multivitamin & minerals
-CLA
-L.Carnitine

(ii) Diet plan:
*Haven't have a final plan on this yet because I haven't check my schedule so I couldn't seem to determine my actual activity factor for my TDEE? Does that make sense?
Anyway, it will be roughly like this.

>1st meal (around 7AM - 8:30AM): 3 egg whites + 1 yolk, 1/2C oatmeal, 1/2C veges and/or fruits.
>2nd meal /or/ Pre-Workout (around 9:30AM - 11AM): Homemade oatmeal protein bars.
>3rd meal (around 12:30PM - 2PM): Grilled/baked/steamed chicken, 1/2C brown rice, 1C veges.
>4th meal /or/ Pre-Workout(around 3PM - 4:30PM): 1/3C oatmeal, 1 serving of banana, 2 tbsp dried fruits+nuts.
>5th meal (around 7PM - 8:30PM): Grilled/baked/steamed chicken, 1C veges.

>>Post workout (Taken 15-45mins after workout, either before having 3rd and 5th meal): Whey protein.
>>>Drinks that I consume: HL chocolate milk, BOH's green tea, fresh fruit juice, plain water. That's it.

(iii) Workout plan:
**Planning to be active for 3-5 days, rest day on Tuesday/Wednesday/Saturday/Sunday.

-1st & 2nd week: LISS 40 minutes.
-3rd week: Medium intensity cardio for 30 minutes.
-4th week onwards: HIIT 15 minutes.

#2 - BULK PHASE

(i) Supplements:
-Hydrolyzed whey protein
-Multivitamin & minerals
-Fish oil
-BCAA
-Creatine
-Casein

(ii) Diet plan:

Rough diet plan:
@ High carb days
>1st meal (around 7AM - 8:30AM): 5 egg whites, 3/4C brown rice, 1/2C veges and/or fruits.
>2nd meal /or/ Pre-Workout (around 9:30AM - 11AM): 1/2C oatmeal, 1 serving of banana, 2 tbsp dried fruits + nuts.

>>Post workout (Taken 15-45mins after workout, either before having 3rd and 5th meal): Whey protein.
>>Before sleep (around (10PM - 11PM): Casein protein.

@ Low carb days
*Probably completely cut carbs off my diet and replace with higher combo of protein and fats.

First of all don't listen to all the supplement marketing BS that you need this and that to achieve something.
Creatine can increase your endurance so it's okay to have (can achieve your goal faster). Multivitamin and fish oil is good for your health. Based on your meal plan, whey protein not necessary. Your protein intake is more than enough. Ditch the rest.

Second, if you want to achieve girl's dream body which is firm and low body fat. There's no need to bulk. If you really want to put on some muscles then 1 month cutting phase is too short. Assuming now that you have 20% BF, you'll need at least 6 months to a nice level of BF to start bulk but that may varies depending on your workout, diet and many other factors.

Lastly, throw in squat & deadlift to your workout. Do it slow, steady and controlled. Women with nice and firm butt is sexier than abs. Not only that, it can increase your overall strength and work on your core which will eventually gain abs by doing so. No need to do thousand of crunches. Careful with HIIT as you have asthma, don't force yourself.

Good luck.

heyhey,

well judging by the pictures you have given i would say your body size is pretty decent. you dont nned to bulk anymore.
i would ecommend just cutting down and toning up. trust me, you dont wan to put on extra weight (fat)
and, if you do go on a bulk now. it will be much harder to cut down later on because of the extra fat you have put on during your bulk.

i had an overweight friend who wanted to lose weight before. so i guided her how to lose weight. she didnt have any "clean" diet or anything. just reduce the amount of food she ate. and also she didnt have time to exercise much so it was all mainly "dieting"

check out this article, it may teach you some thing new..

Thanks for the advices! But I'm quite confuse here.. I thought "bulking" means putting on muscles? Thus, muscles = toned? rclxub.gif
Looks like I've been wrong all this time. lol
