Some food for thought...
This is what I currently do:
Basically a paleo diet with added sweet potatoes and rice at various meals to up my carb intake.
Health supps: multi, apple cider vinegar, fish oils (diet needs to be HIGH in omega 3's), superfood powder goes in my morning shake, also drink about 8oz a day of cranberry juice concentrate, the expensive stuff that is sold in bottles and is sour as fuck. This isn't for my kidneys, it's for my LIVER (stole this from John Meadows.)
Cardio daily
Stay lean/light as possible while sticking to your goals
Bloodwork every few months. Blood pressure checks 1-2x a week.
Healthy as a horse
Cool....this is what I was looking for. My diet could be better (I'll usually eat a dirty meal every few days...especially since my gains have stalled out). The rest of the time it's pretty straight though. I aim for 450g protein, 800g of carbs, and let the fats come from my beef, eggs, and the butter and coconut oil I cook with. BTW, I'm 312 at the moment so I know it sounds like a lot but I'm thinking I need more to get things moving again. My carbs are all rice, oats, potatoes, fruits, and dextrose/maltodextein around training.
I can easily add in the supps you recommend and if the blood pressure doesn't come down then I'll talk with my doc about it next month when I go for bloods.
Still not sure about the cardio...yes, im holding some heavy bloat and extra fat right now, but I don't want to sacrifice gains. I'll be heavy on cardio from September on when I prep, but right now it seems like taking a step back.
