Heres some background. In the past 2 months I have been eating like shit (not TOO bad but still bad) and have some how dropped some bf. But now I know I need to get my diet straight. I am 5'10 255 with an average bf reading of 30%. Beginning next week I will be off from school and can really concentrate on a good diet and lifting program. My only problem is that I have to lift/run/practice on mon. tues. wed. and thurs. for football and this is mandatory. I am still deciding on a lifting program. Its either going to be 3X3, HST, or Westside. If I choose HST or 3X3 I will do the lighter workouts on Monday and Tuesday rest Wednsday and do the heavier workout on Thursday. If I do Westside I will do ME squat and bench on monday and DE squat and bench on thursday with some light auxillarys on tuesday and wednsday. Another option is doing a program Twin Peak suggested to me a couple of months ago. In this program I would do a 4day split of Chest, Shoulders, Tris, Back, Bis, Traps, and Legs for 6 weeks followed by 3 weeks of full body workouts and then another 6 week cycle. I would do 3 exercises per major bodypart (1 for traps and calves), using compound movements. I would be doing 3-4 sets per excersises with 6-8 reps taking all sets to failure. My main goal is gaining strength while dropping some bf.

As for the diet I will be doing a modified version of Twin Peaks Carb Cycle diet. I was thinking of doing something like this: (everyday also includes 6 fish oil caps made by Kirkland) {also, I have only figured out the Low Carb Day foods so please feel free to make suggestions for the No Carb and High Carb Day}

Doesn't look too shabby

What time of day will you be training (and cardio if any)?

The training part is the hardest part of the diet because I will be away from home for about 3.5-4 hours. I have to go to summer ball for football. We lift for an hour, run for an hour (sprints, plyos, etc) and then we either play or learn plays. Its from mon-thurs, during which I will be doing Max-OT
