    I do squats and deadlifts, where I work out there are 8 kettlebell coaches, they each have their own workouts that everyone follows so every workout is unique.
    the gym has mostly kettlebells, there is one straight barbell and one curl bar and some weights so í can do benchpress and curls, that's it.. it's a fighters gym and they all do kettlebells here.

    I think I can do most conventional workouts just with kettlebells, I'm not opposed to bodybuilding, but most bodybuilders try to get really big biceps and pecs, that is something that really works against you in BJJ... you really can't get a rear naked choke if your arm doesn't fit under the opponents chin

    I need more muscle weight and lot more strenght without overgrowing the biceps and pecs.

    all my workouts are full intensity, some are strengthening and some are cardio but in every workout I borderline on throwing up or passing out... but I recover really fast and an hour after the workout I feel great and can't wait to get back in the gym.

    the weight I'm using is almost half my bodyweight in each arm, that's about double the weight most of the people I work out with uses.


    I sleep about 8-10 hours but I'm not sure about the diet... I was told when I got the sustanon that I should eat a LOT and use mass gainer and liquid amino to help..

    on a regular day this is my diet..

    8 am 5 eggwhites + banana + yoghurt + liquid amino
    10:30 am 2 sandwiches with cheese + 1 liter fruit juice (carrot, orange and lime)
    12 am workout
    1 pm mass gainer + glutamine
    2 pm big ribeye steak with sweet potato
    4 pm 5 eggwhites + banana + yoghurt + liquid amino
    5 pm workout
    6 pm mass gainer + glutamine
    7 pm ribeye or chickenbreast, vegetables, olive oil, noodles or rice.. usually WOK
    9 pm yoghurt + banana + sandwich.
    10 pm sleep...

    Those aren't bodybuilders, those are Jersey Shore cast members. True bodybuilders attempt to obtain true symmetry and proportion. I understand your reasoning and respect that though. The truth is unless you really train a muscle hard (biceps and pecs for example) it's not going to grow, it's really hard to get muscles to grow; I dare most people to try.

    I also just realized your diet is at the bottom.
