HIS ROUTINE WHILE TRAINING FOR A COMPETITION

“I wake up around 5 am and start my day by drinking one liter of water to freshen up the body system. After that, I do my morning cardio session, normally it’s between 30-45 minutes. After that, I have breakfast, which usually consists of oats, eggs, toast, and peanut butter. Oh and for what it’s worth, never skip breakfast. It really is the most important meal of the day.

After that, I take a shower and get ready for work. I’m an engineer and work from 7 am - 4 pm, so I prepare a snack which is usually a banana or mixed berries with yogurt. Lunch is where I go heavy with rice or potatoes with a source of protein. Then there is the pre-workout meal which is usually cream of rice with a protein supplement and peanut butter.

After that by about 1-2 hours I have my weight lifting session and my second cardio session of 30-45 minutes on the Stairmaster. Then I have my post workout meal which is the same as my pre-workout meal. Finally, I have my dinner, which is the same as lunch but I add a bowl of salad to get in those bers, and that would be 1-2 hours before bed time.”
