    Default lack of dietary variation and chance of injury

    Jordan, I have been injured more than usual lately. I wonder if lack of variety in diet could be a factor, or if it is probably due to other factors. My diet is conveniënt and not too expensive.

    first three meals:

    30-35 grams whey isolate
    15 grams of peanut butter or 10-15 grams butter
    Whole grain bread/ flakes
    Thin slices of chicken/beef/pork to put on bread

    Dinner:
    this does vary, meat/ potatoes veggies/ pasta, piece of fruit


    Before bed:
    30-35 grams whey isolate, psyllium

    sups: omega 3 (2-3 caps), creatine, multi (50-100% recommended dose of vitamins and minerals), vit d, calcium, magnesium, vit c (1 gram), arginine, recenly started beta alanine

    Total macro’s about : 230p/350c/83f (maintenace level because of injury)
    I weigh 200 pounds, 5’10, 11-12% bf

    besides the injury's I feel fine on this diet, no excessive soreness or tiredness, getting stronger when upping carbs and get calories above maintenance.

    thanks in advance

    Doesn't look like the diet would be contributing to this IMO.
