I stopped getting stronger!
I'm trying to figure out what I need to do to keep getting stronger. Currently, I eat a very low-calorie diet (about 1300/day), with few carbohydrates (almost all veggies and vegetarian protien sources like beans and tofu and egg whites, except oatmeal for breakfast) and go to the gym every other day, where I spin @100 rpm for 1/2 hour, row for 20 minutes, run for 20 minutes, and weight train. I'm a 125 lb 5'6" female.
I figure I should be eating more whole-grain carbohydrates and probably more fat too; does this sound right? Also, that I should go to the gym more often, but vary the training exercises more - cycle for an hour one day, then the next day run for an hour, etc. Also, will the cross-training help with my cycling (which is the ultimate goal anyway), or should I JUST be cycling to help with that? any help is greatly appreciated!
