Cutting & Lean bulk meal prep planner (alpha version)

 I´ve been working on a free meal prep planner on google sheets for a while and now reached alpha stage where everything is pretty much working. Testing needs to be done to check that there are no bugs and meal planning is easy enough.


Pulled pork prepared for the week
  • The meal planner calculates estimated calories and macros according to the values you enter.
  • Enter how many days worth of meal prepping you want to do. In the example I entered 7 days of meal prep with 2 training days.
  • Protein target is set 1g/lbs, Fat min. 0.3g/lbs and Carbs 1..2g/lbs. So pretty much according to the standard recommendations. These can be manually adjusted to your need.
  • In the example breakfast is skipped but you can insert numbers to Amount (grams/pcs) column if you want to have breakfast.
  • Meals are pretty much standard what you see in typical meal plans. So nothing new here yet.
  • Lunch is pulled pork tenderloin which can be prepared for the whole week at once. Recipe example videos are in the recipe sheet.
  • Dinner is Salsa chicken which can be prepared for the whole week at once. Recipe example videos are in the recipe sheet.
  • Manually adjust numbers in Amount (grams/pcs) column to hit target macros
  • To enter foods you can manually edit the planning sheet or copy the correct food information from A to F cells from foods sheet to the planning sheet
  • Grocery list counts how much you need for your meal prep. Packing size is different for all. So for example for Cottage cheese packing size might be 200g, 250g or 400g. You´ll have to enter the package size according to what is available at your local stores.
  • Try to hit your calorie target by +/- 50calories and macro targets by +/10gram accuracy

This one is for those who are interested in practical information in one small package.

I did my best to gather all the information between these covers so that you can make the best progress possible. It is a textbook with some math. But you can skip the math part and read the best parts. I don't mind!

Push-Ups compared to bench press - with calculator

  Push-ups compared to bench press Have you ever wondered how you would compare the different types of push-ups to a barbell press? Well I did but couldn’t find a good push-up to bench press calculator. So I did some research online, made my own calculator based on the actual load and verified the results. Of course direct comparison is not possible because the two exercises are completely different but we can compare the loading parameters between barbell press and push-ups. So a fair warning if you can bench press 1.5x bodyweight you are not able to do one arm push-ups or the other way around. It just doesn’t work that way. But if you currently can do one arm push-ups with good form you could probably reach the 1.5x bodyweight bench 1RM relatively fast by practising the actual lift. In the following we will look at: Strength standards - how much you should actually press to be intermediate or advanced 1RM vs 6-10RM for bodyweight exercises Push-up variations and actual load Top a...
