- What's up you guys,
it's boy Eddie here, AKA Infinite Gainz.
We're here with Muscle and Strength
going through a full day of eating for you guys.
So I hope that your
eyes are hungry, cause I'm starving.
(upbeat music)
All right.
So before I do my first meal, I typically like to
do what I call a pre-meal little deal
where I'm sure you guys have seen it plenty of times
before other bodybuilders,
but I like to start my day
off with some apple cider vinegar.
Tastes like garbage but you know,
gotta do what you gotta do.
So little bit of cider vinegar with about 12 ounces of water
give or take ounce or two,
glutamine, cinnamon, very important,
L-carnitine, need that for sure,
daily probiotic.
If you're a bodybuilder eating insane
amounts of food, you need this probiotic to keep
your gut health in check.
And I'm telling you that from experience,
a probiotic is needed.
Vitamin C you can't go wrong
with vitamin C, guys.
(upbeat music)
(title whooshing)
All right guys.
So for meal number one,
I'm actually gonna have
a little bit of fun today.
You caught me at a weird time.
I'm kind of reversing out of my show diet a little bit.
So my food isn't completely insane at the moment.
I'm still doing a little bit below 300 carbs,
but anyways for meal one,
we're going to do some blueberry
oatmeal pancakes with
an omelet.
(recorded oohing)
So what we're gonna do is we're
gonna start off with two whole eggs
And I'm also gonna do a little bit over
of a tablespoon of almond butter.
And that's because we're actually going to
workout after this meal.
So this is my pre-workout meal.
And as you know, fat, slow down the digestion of carbs.
So when you're working out
you want that consistent release of carbs.
The fat's gonna slow that down so we can have more
of a consistent push of energy throughout the workout.
We'll go with about a cup of oatmeal,
about three fourths of a cup of Silk milk,
a good bit of cinnamon, fourth of a tablespoon of pink salt.
This is going to help give us that good juicy pump today
at the gym.
So you don't need an insane amount of baking powder.
There we go.
Just a little bit.
(upbeat music)
Little over a cup of egg whites.
(upbeat music)
So you just saw me make meal one.
What we've got in front of us right here
we have a cup and a half of egg whites made
into a crispy omelet.
That's gonna taste amazing.
We've got four oatmeal pancakes right here.
We're gonna throw on some sugar free syrup, probably just
drizzle on some almond butter and throw some blueberries
on top.
Now this seems like a lot of food right here,
but believe it or not,
this is the same food that I eat every day.
I just made it a little bit differently.
I made pancakes out of my oatmeal and omelets out of my eggs
(upbeat music)
I like to get a good amount of food in me
before I train.
Most guys train off 2, 3, 4 meals.
I just train off of one.
So my first meal of the day is actually pretty big
so I can get a great workout and a great pump
and a good push
(upbeat music)
(nutritional facts whooshing)
(rhythmic music)
We're outside of the gym right now.
We just finished training chest.
We got a good workout in
and doing my post workout right now.
So we've got a 30 gram shake right here
and I've also got a rice crispy treat.
Now, a lot of people might be wondering why
I'm doing a rice crispy after a workout.
It spikes any form of simple sugar you want to have
after your workout, because it spikes your insulin
which causes the protein to absorb quicker.
So I always try to do some sort,
in the off season,
try to do some sort of simple sugar right
after I work out to get that protein moving quick.
And then I go home and eat meal two
which is my post workout meal.
So I'm really enjoying this rice crispy right now
coming off prep.
Believe me.
(nutritional facts whooshing)
(upbeat music)
All right, you guys, we just finished up our workout.
We're doing our post workout meal right now.
And this is your classic bodybuilder meal right here.
We're just gonna do some chicken and rice.
We're gonna grab this rice.
I like to do Jasmine rice.
We got a big tub of that.
And then we'll also throw in
a half cup of green beans out of a can.
Yes, I'm that guy.
I'm eating green beans
out of the can big can.
- [Observer] Yeah that's a big can.
- This thing's gonna last me like a week and a half.
Two hundred to 220 grams of rice.
That's gonna give us about 60 carbs.
We're gonna do seven ounces of chicken
all in one bowl.
We're gonna go ahead and warm that up.
So our post workout meal should hold me over pretty good.
All right, you guys, I got my post workout meal here.
You already saw what it was.
We got the half cup of veggies, seven ounces of chicken
about 200 to 215 grams of rice.
And on top we put on some sugar free ketchup.
I'm sure you see everybody doing that in body building.
We try to stay away from the sugar a lot.
So we just do sugar free condiments on our food.
But yeah, I'm about to chow down on this
watch some anime and enjoy.
(upbeat music)
So I'm sure you guys have noticed all the toys
and stuff here in the background.
These are my son's stuff, actually.
You know, I am a dad.
I just had my son.
His name is Eddie Lusk the fourth.
Fourth generation over here, guys.
He's two, just turned two in January.
We're both January babies.
So that's awesome.
But it's a different dynamic.
You know, being a professional athlete with a child
especially a bodybuilder with how stringent
and spartan you have to be with this lifestyle.
So it is a sacrifice.
I will admit that.
And that's something that I think any competitor
should give some serious thought to
if they want to take this thing far is how much time
with your kids are you willing to sacrifice?
How much time with your family are you really willing
to give up to be great at this sport?
And that's with all things like entrepreneurs,
business work, whatever it is,
you really kind of have to weigh those options.
But I think that I've been able to find a pretty
good balance to this point
and my girlfriend definitely does a great job helping
out and all the support that she gives.
So just something to think about moving forward, guys.
All you guys out there that wanna compete that have kids,
it's gonna be a lifestyle change.
Trust me.
(nutrition fact whooshing)
(upbeat music)
All right you guys so
big announcement.
I have just signed a sponsorship, athlete sponsorship
with Rule One Proteins.
I'm blessed to be with these guys.
And I just got my first delivery from them.
As you can see, I haven't even opened it yet.
So I'm excited to see what we got.
We got a full box of stuff.
I got some R One protein bars here, fudge brownie crunch.
The biggest tub of protein I've ever seen in my entire life.
Some shaker bottles here.
Their newest pre-workout, the prelift.
This is supposed to be pretty intense.
We've also got some premium electrolytes.
We have some 100% creatine monohydrate
you guys should already
know what creatine does is to be a staple on all of you
guys' plans.
Got some swag.
I think the sponsors are important because
it alleviates a lot of the stress for us,
you know, as you can see this stuff would cost us a lot
of money.
It means a lot to me really.
It means that, you know, my efforts are kind of are paying
off a little bit.
It means that the people are seeing me.
They're watching me.
And they've just kind of noticed
that we're doing some good things over here.
(title whooshing)
(upbeat music)
Right now I'm eating my third meal of the day.
It's pretty simple.
It's a half cup of Jasmine rice and six ounces of turkey.
So nothing flashy with this meal.
It's your basic body builder meal
but we got a little bit of Harry Potter on right now.
So we're about to just enjoy this
- [Observer] Changing it up.
- Yeah.
We had anime on earlier.
We got a little Harry Potter on right now.
(upbeat music)
- [Observer] Like after the show,
are you kind of lost right now as
to what your routine and what your schedule is?
Or are you pretty much locked in to the same thing?
- It's pretty much the exact same thing.
I think that's where I
thrive at is time management.
So every part
of my day is pretty strategic in a sense.
So I always try to keep the same schedule every single day.
I'll just make a whole container
of ground turkey or a whole container of ground beef.
I'll cook up a whole giant pot of rice
and that'll probably last me maybe
three to four days.
So I'd say every three to four days
there's a day I'm cooking in bulk.
That'll kind of take me a little bit of time
but other than that, it's pretty smooth.
Just cook everything up, have it already prepared,
throw it in the containers and get my day going.
(upbeat music)
All right, you guys.
So we got meal four right here.
We've got six ounces of turkey,
six asparagus spears and a half cup of Jasmine rice.
Again, this is one of my lighter meals of the day.
And we're about to go ahead and chow down.
(upbeat music)
(nutrition facts whooshing)
All right you guys so we're back eating again.
We have meal five right here.
This is six ounces of red meat,
three-fourths of a cup
of Jasmine rice and one cup of green beans.
This is one of my heavier meals in the day.
As you saw, the rest of my meals
are kind of lighter on the carbs.
I stayed pretty consistent with my proteins,
as you can see,
with seven ounces of chicken,
my six ounces of turkey,
and now I got my six ounces of red meat.
So even in prep until peak week,
the amount of protein I get is always
pretty consistent,
about that six to seven ounces.
So anyway, we got meal five right here
about to go ahead and dig in.
(upbeat music)
So we're back for my sixth meal of the day.
It's about 10:30,
11 o'clock right now.
I like to get my last meal in kind of late
but we've got ourselves one cup
of egg whites with one whole egg,
about a half cup of spinach, two slices of Ezekiel bread.
And then we're gonna top all
of that off with some delicious almond butter.
I'm feeling really good right now.
I'm looking forward to this meal.
(upbeat music)
So that was my full day of eating.
I hope you enjoyed it.
