That’s actually not too far off from a pretty standard training diet schedule. In general you want to take in some calories and proteins as soon as you wake up. Throughout the day you will eat to get all the macro and micro nutrients you need. Most people will eat or take nutrition such as “shakes” either shortly before or shortly after training sessions- making sure to get some carbs before (and for longer sessions during!) and then fast acting protein within about 30 minutes after. You’ll want some slower acting protein too, and before bed some source of slower acting protein so that you aren’t catabolic while you sleep. That’s one “classic” schedule anyway.

There is great debate in science, nutrition, and even fitness as to wether it actually matters when you eat what, or if that’s just “bro science” handed down mouth to mouth and from arm chair experts who haven’t done the studies to confirm- but base on observation or subjective personal results like “this is what <I> <Arnold> <etc> have done and it works. I tried the other way and lost all my gains brah.”

But- asides being a pain, it doesn’t seem to hurt anything to break up your nutritional intake into smaller chunks timed throughout the day as opposed to the opposite. Personally, I do believe that the timing of when you eat, and the content of what you eat when matters. That said- if you’re lifting right and however you are doing it, you’re getting your daily nutrition, you’ll gain strength and size unless you have some condition that prevents it. So in the end it’s all academic- but certainly one can feel like a hobbit- a bloated hobbit that takes dumps the size of a hobbit- when training and on a bulking diet!
