2. From August until January I want to put on as much size as I can without becoming a total lardass. I plan to start with a 4,000 calorie a day diet (40/40/20 p/c/f breakdown) and up the calories in the same ratio as needed if I am not gaining enough. During this time I will hire a trainer to help further motivate me to get in shape.
3. From January until contest I want to get as lean as possible while maintaining as much muscle mass as possible.
At my height I would like to be able to compete as a super-heavy, but would rather be lighter than fatter. I am extremely excited. If anyone has any suggestions for me I'm all ears. If anyone cares I'll keep you guys posted with info and if I feel comfortable enough some pics too. Thanks all, Mark
