Off Season Diet

I regularly get seem to get asked what a normal day of eating would be in the off-season so I thought would write that up as my first article. I try not to put on to much extra fat in the off-season as it just makes it harder to prepare for the bodybuilding shows. So to keep the fat off and the blood pressure down as well as making me feel a lot healthier I do 5 cardio's a week , usually for around 40min.

Cycling and power walking as well as 1 boxing session a week are my cardio sessions of choice. I always do morning sessions before food as they are most effective for fat loss. My theory with so many cardio sessions in the off-season is for 2 reasons, 1. Real muscle growth seems to occur allot faster as I eat a lot more food because of my faster metabolism 2. The days off getting as big and heavy as possible to further my ego are gone now I realise I only have one body and to take care off it as best you can. Regular blood tests are also recommended in our sport as it goes to the extreme, best to keep tabs on yourself and stop problems before they occur.
