I have been getting everything in order before I start my first cycle at the end of this month. Refresher on my stats - 6'4", 106kg, down to around 10% bf now. I have been on the diet for almost 2 weeks and am getting over 4000 calories a day, almost 400g protein, over 400g carbs and 100g fat on a workout day. On days I don't workout, I cut this back to about 3000 calories, 350g protein, 180g carbs and 110g fat. This diet regime has required me to cut out my milk intake entirely, mixing the protein with water (awful). I was told to vary the amount I eat on rest days to stop my body from adjusting to intake levels and to up the levels of good fats for joint recovery. Hope this all sounds right as it has been hell trying to get into a routine. I guess if it was easy it wouldn't be such a huge issue with training.
The other thing to ensure I am doing right is the workouts. I train 4 days a week on a split. Have all the basics in there - deadlifts, squats, bench and military press etc. Will I have to increase the number of days I train or modify the way I train at all?
Thanks for the help again. Suppose I'm just needing an assurance that I have prepared properly before I take the plunge. Cheers.
