Hope you have a trainer who is looking out for your kidneys. High levels of protein and strenuous workout programs combined with creatine can trigger rhabdomylosis and cause kidney failure.Prolonged periods of strenuous exercise can cause muscle tissue to break down causing rhabdomylosis and abnormal levels of myoglobulin in the urine (myoglobinuria). The urine may appear dark reddish-brown after prolonged periods of exercise.How soon do you hit the sack after your evening meal? If you wait about two to three hours, that should be about right. Sooner than that stomach acids could be eating at your sphincter muscle causing gerd. It looks to be a very well thought out plan, when it comes to vitamins more is not always better, regardless of weight and exercise. It’s the amount of water you drink. Gotta keep it flowing through the system to help flush out the toxins and lactose build-up in the muscles as you exercise. If you drink a lot of water you may want to up potassium juuuuuuust a tad, as well as the zinc.Good Luck and take care. You have all of the major vitamins in your supplements listed. A multi-vitamin shouldn’t be needed. You’re obviously willing to pay up and eat what you gotta to make the most of your body, so a multivitamin probably wouldn’t hurt. Looks to me like you’re getting pretty much all you need, just remember that those percentages are set for 180 lb males (or smaller) so if you’re much larger than that, you need more. Also an active lifestyle means you’ll need more of alot of those nutrients, so a multivitamin would be really beneficial, especially with B-vitamins and magnesium.
