Is powder milk acceptable? Because I have milk intolerance... I mean, I can drink a cup or so per day but that's pretty much it.

I have a hard time of getting protein+fat meals. I mean, I have no idea of what these meals look like... I guess I always ate protein+carbs...

Can someone throw a few examples at me (I'll look for some in Kelly's body comp basics book).

Also, running won't be an option when winter comes. Running on the treadmill could be and kettlebell swings for cardio work... although I don't like using the treadmill... I'm afraid of it (falling and all that).

And wouldn't it be detrimental to muscle building if I burned calories doing stuff like running and cardio? Wouldn't they contradict each other?...

Hahahahaha , epic x 2 , that's exactly what i thought you would reply , word-by-word!

I typed mine on the go too. 
Funny thing , i really liked the whole idea and afterwards my mind has been working on the complete design pattern of that shit. An object oriented design , where depending on user we will load the apropriate function , that will be pretty epic but it comes pretty close to what i do at work so it ruins the fun of being in here , LOLLLLLLLLLLL

Oh well, here's a fast version of it , on the go again:

struct UltimateTrainer
{
     int assesmentFunc();
     int trainingFunc();
     int evaluationFunc();
     struct trainingData{
        ....
        ....
        ....
     }*data;
}

int goGetIt( string *athlete )
{
    struct UltimateTrainer *my_trainer

    my_trainer = initAthletesTrainer( athlete );
    runUltimateTrainer( my_trainer );
}

struct UltimateTrainer initAthletesTrainer( string *athlete )
{
    UltimateTrainer *my_trainer  = malloc( ...);

    if( athlete == 'raptor' ){
        assesmentFunc = aquireListOfSafeExcercises( my_trainer->data );
        trainingrFunc = attemptFatLoss( my_trainer->data );
        evaluationFunc = checkIfFatLossAchieved( my_trainer->data );
    }
     return my_trainer;
}

runUltimateTrainer( struct UltimateTrainer *my_trainer )
{
    my_trainer->assesmentFunc( my_trainer->data);
    do{
         my_trainer->trainingFunc( my_trainer->data);
    }while( my_trainer->evaluationFunc() != my_trainer->data->user_goal );
}

HAHAHAHA , loving it!     

Pretty geeky too  , LETS NERD THE FUCK OUT!

Well I don't feel like there's another way... I don't see one. It's not like I'm competing in powerlifting, 3 months should be "enough" for strength training.

3 months is not that much but its not little either. From personal experience your main concern should be the cutting phase , it is imperative to maintain strength in order to avoid yo-yo.
So connecting that to JCs post , IMO 3 months of bulking are enough to put some serious mass and strength , but then yo umust plan the fat-loss phase really good. I would suggest caloric deficit and increased cardio combined with heavy singles ( MSEM ) workouts & big eating. It should be more like a try-catch approach , start with a scheme ( low eating + MSEM ) , see how your body responds to it , adjust , retry and so on...

void fat_loss_phase( void )
{
    project_plan = init_fat_los_plan();
    do{
        iok = attemptFatLoss( project_plan );
        if( iok != continue_current_plan ){
             project_plan = adjust_project_plan()
        }
    }while( iok != fat_loss_achieved )
}

int attemptFatLoss( int project_plan )
{
    int iret;

    if( doFatLoss( project_plan ) != succesfull ){
         iret = needs_adjust;
    }else{
        if( isFatLossComplete() ){
            iret = fat_loss_achieved;
        }else{
            iret = continue_current_plan;
        }
    }
    return iret;
}


Note that this programm deliberately doesn't have an abort case , it will continue forever untill you succeed!

GO GET IT!

Oh man tell me about it, I gotta find those comments now that you reminded me haha. My best comment battles were with adarqui himself tho lol oh man just ask him about it. But yeah thanks for the love yo, I'm definitely way more chilled, some dude posted a hate comment on my latest vid that was completely untrue, but i just left it whereas I used to reply furiously to like every hate comment.
