man the more i look at the pics,i get so disgusted with myself

Nothing to be disgusted about you have an incredible base. What help would you like from the board?

just some pointers on any improvments i can make. my goal is 220lbs before i start my cutting.also forgot to mention i have never done cardio since ive been training,i use my ab work as cardio.i lose weight very easy so i try to just lift.

my diet:
530am: 30g protein shake
715am: 6 egg whites,2 whole eggs,oatmeal,banana
945am.30g prot. shake
1130am:2 grilled breast,cup of brown rice,steamed veggie
245pm:spilt grilled breast,prot. shake.
400pm:superpump,banana
600:cell tech, prot. shake
7-8pm:grilled breast and pasta
10pm: prot. shake.
Usually drink at least a gallon of water a day, also i got to sleep around 1030-11 when my 1 year old allows me lol.

too many shakes.

not enough carbs

add some fruit. half an apple with 4 meals or so

thanks bro. i usually pack a apple and some grapes for a snack in my bag during the day.i will make sure i will now!

carbs...what do you suggest adding? and great pic in ur avy bro

Well its all about timing.

Hit those carbs hard in your first meal of the day and also your PWO meal. That is when your body will use them alot more and you can get away with extra carbs.

Add some oatmeal to your breakfast along with apple juice

Along with your pwo shake. Do the same. Thats an easy 120g or more of carbs that you arent getting now.

If you are 6'1 as you say and only 204. Then you dont gain weight or FAT easily. Like me. (I am 6'3 225lbs) So dont be scared of carbs and healthy fats.

Snack on or fill up on peanuts/almonds/natty peanut butter on meals where you are still hungry.

Add some fish oil to a few meals. 2grams of fishoil for 3 - 5 meals.

As I said... if you dont gain weight or fat easy.. then dont eat just egg whites. Make them whole eggs. 6 whole eggs.

What sort of protein shake are you having before bed? Whey? Well have your shake but also eat 2 or 3 spoons of peanut butter, and cottage cheese. Or if you dont like cottage cheese. Find some nonfat Greek Yogurt. Same macros as cottage cheese basically.

All I just told you... is pretty much what I eat and I have no problem keeping abs all year round while slowly gaining some lean mass.

thanks alot bro!!! will use this advice, hoping to post pics in a month or so of my cycle. again thank you!

Hey bro, firstly like TB said, you appear to have a great base.

I'm going out on a limb here and disagreeing with some of Dukkit's advice (I still lub u!) ONLY because I believe you gain fat faster/easier then you think. Your pics tell the story. You have relatively high BF right now, that is not the BF of a 'hardgainer'.

Your diet is pretty much crap if i'm being honest, and I will agree 100% with Dukkit on having too many shakes - they are supplements, not meal replacements.

I don't really want to advise much on the diet here (if you want the advice that is) - get over to the diet section and I will be happy to work with you.
