I'm sore as f*ck today, after yesterdays workout, that's for sure. I was dreading working out today, but I think starting at 50% of the weight I used for 5 reps max will be fine for now. I'm also going to try to keep rest to under 2 mins, until the weights start getting heavier, then I will need more time.

Here is what Zed, and I discussed for macros. As you can see he broke it down pretty good.

Consume a diet consisting roughly of 40 to 50 percent carbs, 30 to 40 percent protein, and 25 to 35 percent fat while following a clean bulking diet. While most of your meals should contain a fair blend of the three macronutrients, the meals before and after your workout should consist of just carbs and protein (in a 2:1 ratio) with minimal fat. This approach will avoid the slowdown in digestion that occurs from fat consumption, helping to shuttle more nutrients into your muscles when you need them most--to prepare you for an impending workout and to recover from a completed workout. Beyond that, each meal you consume should be roughly aligned with the listed percentages--most of the meal should consist of healthy carbs such as fruits, vegetables, brown rice, whole grains and sweet potatoes; a moderate portion of the meal should consist of lean protein from low-fat meat, chicken, turkey, eggs or seafood, and a smaller portion of the meal should contain healthy fat from fat-containing fruit (think avocados), nuts, seeds or healthy cooking oils like olive or coconut. Aim to consume just enough calories to add roughly a pound per week, as this slow but steady rate of gains should be sufficient to enable you to add maximal size without adding excessive fat to your waistline.

Sample Meals
A sample breakfast while on a clean bulking diet might consist of several scrambled eggs, a bowl of oatmeal with blueberries and Cinnamon and several fish oil capsules. A sample lunch might consist of a large garden salad with several grilled chicken breasts, and a few tablespoons of natural peanut butter. A sample dinner might be a lean cut of flank steak served with a sweet potato and a spinach and tomato salad with olive oil or balsamic dressing. As a snack throughout the day, consider blending up protein powder in milk with berries and a tablespoon or two of natural peanut butter for a healthy high-calorie shake to help you reach your goals.
 
Well I'm going to start the 5x5 today, Workout A tues, Workout B thurs, Workout A sat, and the flip it over to starting on Monday once I finish off the week this Saturday. I'll be using 50% of the weights I used here, and hopefully I can keep momentum, and not have to set a restart throughout the program.
 
Well if OWL is subbed...so am I, will be nice to see your slow but steady progress! Kill it bro!
