Eating routine

I start my day with a big breakfast that includes eggs, bacon, oatmeal, fruit. I get lunch almost immediately following to refuel my body. I try to eat six meals a day with snacks in between every meal, which seems to be a good recipe for what I ask of my body during training sessions. In between workouts, I’ll have a snack, whether that consists of some type of fruit, cottage cheese, nuts, Muscle Milk bar or Muscle Milk shake.
