Nuts in general are too energy dense for most people to consume regularly in large amounts. As a condiment, they're fine, but there are quite a few issues with high consumption on a daily basis. Caloric density, excessive omega 6 fatty acids, lectins, etc. Better fat sources include meat and other animal products(preferably grass-fed/pastured/organic), olive oil, and coconut products.

you just answered your own question
 
starting Insanity tomorrow.. I'm 209 LBs, 6'0 ft, 23% body fat..

I wanna get down to 185 and about 10% body fat

think it's possible?

I'm also thinking of doing insanity 3 days a week, and lifting on the other 3 days, and using sundays as a rest day.

thoughts?

absolutely it's possible....if you keep up with it long enough.  you didn't say how long you're planning on keeping this routine, so don't expect those results in a few weeks.

For me, I do 3x15, 4x10, 5x5, in order and I usually see gains each time. Obviously alternate each workout

Got this from my HS football coach, usually use those sets and reps for most of my workouts.

Makes sense. Let me experiment with it starting this week.

Eat almonds, lots of em

I do eat Almonds but I count em. It's excellent for protein/fibre but don't over do it. My main issue with it is the gas situation 3 hours later

well if that's fat then it's bad. it doesn't matter on how much you're gaining, what matters the most is what you're gaining in those pounds.

and I hope you got some good appetite. that's a lot to gain per week brah. I hope you're prepared for some lifestyle changes when you want to gain weight. It sounds good right now but when it gets out of control you'd be wishing you never gained that much.

- put on your sneakers and walk/jog around the block. if you live in an apartment then go up and down the stairs.

If you're bulking you're putting on fat. If you're putting on fat some of that is going to be on your stomach. Your abs wont be visible until you cut to a low bf percentage. What I've found out is that as long as you're feeling the burn your abs are being worked out. I usually go to failure on any ab exercise and have seen great results when on a low cal/low carb diet.
