Also, hard to asses the diet, though the choices look fairly decent(except as noted), is this a calorie cut, and how much of one. A good place to start is around 10% for a cut. Do not add too much cardio to begin with, use cardio as an extension of your diet, not the other way around. As you get down you will be sorry if you do it the other way. -------------- Strength and Honor!
