hi, looking good

in terms of diet i think you need more carbs and maybe even cut down on the protien - you dont look like you need that much. Increase your carbs in meal 1 and personally i'd increase them in meal 6 aswell. Also meal 6 - 76g protien - no need for that much pre workout IMO

Diet experts can correct me if i'm wrong

[Ajc330]

only count protein sources that are from meat fish or poultry, all other forms of protein i would say aren't sufficient

your second meal is protein fat... your protein and fat meals should be at the end of the day when you are going to sleep soon..

fat slows down the metabolism and you don't want that to happen in the beginning of the day

[nd95450]

yeah, i will take all of that into account!
thanks for the replys, guys.

If he's trying to gain weight he sure does

honestly, when you are a really light weight and you want to bulk, you can basically eat as much as you want, as often as you want, as long as you arent eating a lot of simple sugars and saturated fats.

Gaining some bodyfat is part of the process, especially when natural, you need both to get more muscle onto your frame.

when you've bulked a fair amount of size and have a solid base, then i believe it is time to focus a bit more on a strict diet.

I think if you listen to their advice and follow it you'll end up looking like young Frank Zane.

cool, yeah, i just wanted to put on as much muscle weight as i can, while leaving off as much fat as i can.

hell, i would love to look like he does

do you guys think that if i keep up what i have been for the past month, for the next 11, that i will see decent results by this time next year?

[Chuck_R]

EAT like a monster, lots of real high quality nutrients, Train smart, BUST your butt in the gym...EAT...TRAIN......EAT......EAT......EAT....EA T.....EAT.....SLEEP......EAT....TRAIN.......EAT... ..EAT......EAT.......EAT......EAT.....SLEEP....... EAT....TRAIN....EAT.....EAT......EAT......EAT....E AT....SLEEP.....EAT.....TRAIN.....EAT....EAT.....E AT......EAT.....EAT.....EAT......EAT......EAT..... .EAT.......EAT......EAT.....

yes, you should notice a ton of gains in a year.

[nd95450]

yes, you should notice a ton of gains in a year.

thanks for the encouragement, i just hope the work im putting in pays off

and chuck, i eat like a horse alrealdy, and my workout days are rather limited, so i can work out intensly for only about 2 hours every M, W, F

is that enough for a weekly training?

[sliceNdice]

i just hope the work im putting in pays off

Don't worry man. If you put in the work you'll get the results. Some would say 2 hrs is a little long but 3 or 4 days a week is good. Keep up the good work.

[nd95450]

thanks slice, i will see if i can cut down on times a little bit at the gym

[scr3wdriver]

goodluck with your transformation. in a year you will definately see gains if you can keep up with that diet. I have a similar build and I'm starting a diet like yours. How much do you weigh now?

[FireGuy]

There should be a rule against noobs bumping year old threads.

[bodybldr]

no kidding

[1badcamaro]

so don't post and add your 2 cents

i never look at the date of start, quit flaming

[smokethedays]

Why tr u here? go EAT man. Fats during day or not don't matter if u wanna get big, just eat'em then go burn'em the more u eat hit the gym as much.
