Yes I am very good with my diet! I eat every 3 hours, tkae in about 250g of protein a day (I would jump to 400g on sauce), I eat about 3000-3500 cals a day right now and I eat very clean!

My goals:

bench now: 225lbs x 8 (affter cycle 285lbs x 8)
deadlift now: 315lbs x 10 (affter cycle 405lbs x 10)
Squate now: I pintched a nerv so I have not worked legs in a month....I will prob want to be squating around 315lbs If I can.

Why are your reps so high? 5 sets of 5 is superior for gaining strength

I switch it up but 8 is a nice medium rep range....somtimes I will only do 3-4 reps and other times I do 8-12....It just depends on how I feel or what I am training for....I figer 8 reps Is a good medium rep range that will give me both size and strength.
