Hey all. I joined a few months back. Started a crazy bulking diet where I gained some good weight (14 pounds), but I noticed probably at least 60% of it was fat. I'm not too much into fat and I don't particularly like it. I actually enjoy being on the slender side. I'm just looking to get that slender-athletic-extremely toned body.
Age: 24
Height: 5’9”
Weight: 130 lbs.
Weight Goal: 160 lbs.
I figured my maintenance level for calories is right around 3000 now. I’m pretty active so I burn a lot. Here’s my bulking diet:
7:00am: 1 scoop of Whey, 2 cups of Oatmeal, 2 slices of toast, 2 cups of whole milk
9:00am: 1 banana, 1 container of yogurt, water
11:00am: 1 piece of string cheese, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, water
12:30pm: PPJ sandwich, 2 large carrots, ½ cup of cottage cheese w/ peaches (yummy!)
2:00pm: ½ cup of Almonds, 2 cups of whole milk
3:30pm: 1 piece of string cheese, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, water
5:30pm: 3 pieces of Grilled Chicken breast, 1 cup of mixed vegetables, water
7:00pm: 1 scoop of whey in 2 cups of whole milk (PRE-workout)
8:00pm: ½ scoop of Serious Mass in water (POST-workout)
9:00pm: 1 container of yogurt, 1 cup of whole milk
10:00pm: 1 scoop of Whey in 1 cup of whole milk
Totals come out to about: 4000 calories, 300g of Protein, 400g of Carbs, 170g of Fat
I was doing P90X (a bulking version of it) but recently dropped it. I was losing weight despite eating a bulking diet. Just burning way too many calories using that system and doing one set of a massive number of exercises (mostly body weight exercises) just wasn't conducive to what I am looking for. So, now I'm doing this total body workout 3 days a week.
M – W - F
Bench Press: 3 x 8 **
Lateral Raises: 3 x 8
Barbell Rows: 3 x 8
Barbell Curls: 3 x 8
Deadlifts: 3 x 8
Skull Crushers: 3 x 8 **
Squats: 3 x 8
**Sometimes I do these two exercises with dumbbells. I just feel like I get a better workout from dumbbells with these two. Not sure why and I’m certainly not sure if this is a good thing or bad thing.
On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I work on my abs. I absolutely love the Ab ripper DVD of P90X, so I do that on Tuesdays and Thursdays. That workout is pure money. I try to keep cardio to a minimum. The golf course I walk is quite lengthy, so the walk usually totals to about 4 miles long. I’ll do this anywhere from 2 to 5 days a week, depending. Tournament play is always in a cart so walking is minimal.
Anyway, sorry for the long post. I condensed as much as I could. I just like to be thorough. Hopefully I didn’t forget anything. Any suggestions would be helpful guys. I’m all ears. Thanks!
