well it looks like everything is good maybe try switching up your routine. and also what kind of sets and reps are you doing? another thing is you may want to try lifting less so your body has more time to recover. because with kids im sure its hard to find time to take a nap or get a full nights rest so maybe try taking a day off between workout days.

i seem to gain mass doing about 50-80% of my 1RM using the format 4 sets 12, 10, 10, 8 with increasing weight at each stage.

Simple fact is that ample protein + pump inducing sets = mass

Everything else is just a rhetoric until your pretty massive.

I would move the Peanut Butter to your last meal (Cottage Cheese). You don't really want carbs & fats in the same meal.
I would add in a 1/2 cup of blueberries and/or a scoop of protein powder (after cooking) to your oats.

but fats and carbs in the peanut butter before bed goes against almost any weight loss philosophy going?

Fats are good before bed. Helps boost T-Levels.

I don't know about your Peanut butter, but mine only has 6g of carbs, 2g of which are fiber, so 4g and 8g of protein. Pretty minimal.

I believe the fats will also slow down the digestion of protein in the CC during sleep.

He is also looking to bulk, not cut, although this combo would be fine for that as well. If he was eating 2 cups of oats (all carbs) before bed, that would be a different story.

Do your pre-workout and post-workout shakes include carbs? If not, they should.
