Northshore Danvers Bootcamp Instructor Shows You how to Meal Plan

Okay so I talk about meal planning all the time. Do you really have time to prepare your meals every day?

It’s as simple as this:

I decided to share with you my meal plan for the day and what I eat.

First thing when I wake up: Prograde Protein Shake with a banana.

Depending on weather I am running a my Danvers bootcamp or not here is what is next and this is what I mean when I say adjust your calorie intake for what you are doing that day.

Northshore Danvers Bootcamp Day: Another Prograde Protein Shake about an hour and a half after the first shake. You have to understand that I am consuming about 300 grams of protein a day, so I get it in different forms.

Non-bootcamp day: After my morning Protein Shake I wait about an hour or so and then make breakfast:

Breakfast: 5 Eggs scrambled with low fat cheese, serving of oatmeal with a packet of equal, and 4 slices of Turkey Bacon. If you have never had turkey bacon it cooks really quickly so keep an eye on it.

Snack: either a quarter cup of trail mix or 2 rice cakes with 2 tablespoons of peanut butter.

Lunch: about 5-6oz of either Chicken or Lean Steak with brown rice. I usually use 2 tablespoons of salsa to spice up the rice.

Snack: Whatever I didn’t eat for my first snack I will eat for this snack.

Dinner: Here is where it can change again, if I am working out then I will have a Prograde protein shake and right after the workout, another Prograde protein shake.

Non-workout Day Dinner: Again 5-6oz of Chicken or Lean Steak with Brown Rice with the salsa.

My snack before night time is usually a half cup of cottage cheese with a quarter cup of cashews.

Now my snacks do change from time to time as I might have 3 sticks of low-fat string cheese, or a high protein yogurt with walnuts added.

So there you have it my meal plan for the day. Now how do I put all of this together? Simple, I take 20 minutes the night before and prepare all of these meals so that I can just stick my hands in the gym and take what I need right there and then making it super easy for me to stay on track. I am on the go most of the time so I don't complicate my life with not being prepared.

It’s easy when you plan.

Fail to plan, plan to lose.

See ya next time.
