I weigh about 185 pounds. I have a pretty good amount of muscle, I can bench more than my body weight. I am now interested in getting stronger but also losing fat. So my muscles show, this is the routine that i have in mind, i would like to know if there is anything wrong with it.

Monday: Bike for 10 minutes doing HIIT
Run a mile doing HIIT
Swim laps Doing HIIT

Tuesday: Run warm up mile
Do heavy work outs

Wednesday: same as monday

Thursday: same as tuesday
but try to do muscle groups
that i missed on tuesday

Friday: Same As Wednesday

Saturday: off

Sunday: Same as Thursday

Drink protein shake directly after working out.

Attempt to eat 185g of protein a day using whey protein shakes. Also I would like to know what i should eat with my shake to slow digestion that would also be diet friendly. I dont have a specific diet, i just try to eat lots of fruits and vegitables and not eat sugar filled crap.

Ok first off, what exactly are lean meats. And usually i just do specific muscle excercises like curling, so i guess i should stop doing that. Oh and what are good mornings?
