like the title says, im 18, 6'3'', and 160 pounds. I started out at about 140 about 9 or 10 months ago, and got up to 160 in the first 2 months. But now i havent changed in the last 7. Im currently wake up, take cytosport fast-twitch and go work out, then take mucle milk when i get home along with some breakfast which usually consists of bacon and eggs or pancakes and sausage. (+ i just ordered some cytogainer to replace the muscle milk.) Then i go to school, and at 10a.m. we have a 10 minute nutrition break to get some snacks. I usually dont have anything at this break. Then i go home for lunch at 12 and usually eat a tv dinner or something like that and a muscle milk shake. I then go back to school until 3:15 and then come home and eat a snack, or some muscle milk if i missed it at lunch. Then i go to practice (basketball at the this time of year) and then eat supper when i get home. An example of what my mom makes me for supper is hamburgers, a green vegetable or corn, and some kind of potatoe. Then before bed i have another muscle milk, and then wake up and do it all again. My workout schedual is
monday- chest
tuesday- back
wednesday- arms
thursday- shoulders
friday- legs
and either saturday or sunday i usually go in and do arms again.
chest day i usually start out with bench, usually a pyramid (10, 8, 6, 3, 2) or "blasters" (you put on your 1 rep max and try to get 5 reps, each time you fail you take 5 pounds off and keep going until you can get 5 reps), then wide grip bench 2 sets of 6 and a burnout, wide grip negative bench, dumbell incline, narrow grip dumbell bench, flies, and sometimes incline bench (with a bar). The order of lifts isnt always the same, does that make a difference?
Arm day i usually start off with incline dumbell curls, then to tricep rope, then a lift we call 21 curls, you go 7 half way up, 7 half way down, and 7 all the way (with a bar), then i do skull crushers, then buddy curls with a bar, usually go from 3 to 8 then back down, then tricept extensions with a dumbell, then concentration curls, then reverse arm curls, and i keep rotating bicep, tricep, and throw in some wrist/forearm too. i usually do either 4 sets of 6, or 3 sets of 8 on most lifts.
ok, there is my routine, can anyone tell me what im doing wrong, or what i need to do, because i cant gain weight. period. To stand any chance of playing college football, i have to bulk up, and right now, its just not happening. Im a quarterback if that makes any difference.
THANKS to those of you who read this, for wasting you time to help me out! I truly appreciate any helpful tips!
