I Know You Get This A LOT

**JKtheOreo** · 09-29-2012, 12:45 PM

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums and the weightlifting field as a whole. I've been doing my research, and I understand diet is #1. I have seen many examples of diets on here, but I have no clue which one I should follow, so I was wondering if I could have a custom diet that fits me. Also a workout plan for my goals, and what and when I should take my supplements. I would really appreciate a few moments of your time because there is no way I can afford a personal trainer with my poor income, but I don't want to waste the little money I do have to dedicate myself to healthy nutrition and the gym.

Background: I'm a 23 year old male, 5'7", 165-170 pounds, electrical impulse body fat scale determines 25% body fat, 38% muscle, and 8% visceral fat. I have a rounded abdomen. I have been working out 3-4 days a week at a gym for 1-2 hours at night time for about a month now; I've been working all abs & cardio one day, upper body one day, and lower body one day. Before this, I have only worked out for about 45 days before in my life on p90x last year, and I gained very nice strength and went from about 130lbs to 160lbs along with the milk diet (nearly a gallon a day) to gain weight with ON serious mass.

Goals: Huge improvement in strength in all muscle groups, gain muscle mass in arms and chest, tone all parts of body, six pack abs

Time Limit: None, but I'd like to see a big improvement within a year from today.

Obstacles: Mondays: school 6:30am-5:15 pm; research 5:30pm-9:30pm; Wednesdays: school 11:30am-5:15pm; Fridays: work 7pm-7am. Obviously I have many hours of study also in various hours.

Supplements: Optimum Nutrition (ON) Whey Protein powder, Serious Mass powder, BCAA caps, creatine powder, glutamine powder, fish oil with omega 3's, flaxseed oil, mult-vitamins, and green tea extract. After a year or so (whatever recommended), I may be willing to do a cycle of anabolics, but I understand this isn't a miracle drug and I need to have my diet plan, exercise, and body in place first.

I'd really appreciate some input guys, and I wouldn't mind shelling out some dough via paypal if I get a nice plan. Thanks everyone in advance. And let me know if you need any more information.

So I suppose this is the correct forum. My TDEE is 2790; BMR 1800

i thought this was the New Male Members section and i was welcoming you. so i wanted to direct you to the proper forum, but as it turns out you WERE in the correct forum. apparently, i WAS NOT.

once again, i apologize for any confusion i caused you or anyone else.

Mick.
