Good base?

[Times Roman]

if you've been lifting for the several years as you have said you did, then your connective tissue should be ready. Frame looks good mate. Physique should be ready. Hormonally ready (post 25+ years old).

I'd say you are green to go.

Good luck!

Nutrition has never really been my strong suit. I've cleaned up the diet substantially (no beer, fast food, soda, etc.). I have a cheat meal on Saturdays whenever I go out with my old lady. I just fall short in measuring my caloric intake.

My TDEE is just north of 3100 cal a day. I may invest in a nutritionist just to help me map out what I should be eating and when.
