Diet

HELP!!!

My friend has asked me for some advice on a diet as he has just started at the gym and honestly has no idea whatsoever! :shock:

He will be training 3 times a week - 60min sessions - mixture weights and cardio.

Can anyone suggest a healthy diet that requires minimum effort (I know it sounds weak but he won't put that extra effort in to it)?

Thanks in advance

Well, first we'd need to know more about him. What are his goals? What's his current weight, BF%? etc...

You could always suggest he sign up here.

good carbs are oats, brown rice etc..

Jono is right, there is no difference in macro and micro nutrient ratio's for men and women only the amount is different.

What are his goals? What's his current weight, BF%? etc.

[tallulahangie]

His goals are just to improve his general fitness etc...

BF % - 22% Weight - just over 100kg Height 6 foot something...

tell him to get at LEAST 220g protein per day from quality sources such as beef, eggs, chicken, whey, dairy...

Any non-retarded diet will work for whatever 'general fitness' is.
