How can I bulk and do MMA at the same time?

[bluetoolpaul]

Any test will do bro. Prop is awesome but enanthate and cyp will all do the same thing. Beast is awesome. So is dbol. But beast is cheaper and doesn't bloat

oatmeal or quinoa w/ blueberries and half a serving of dymatize super mass gainer once before gym in morning once again when im done with a serving of aftershock
1st break at work, usually meatball sub or pepperoni pizza hoagie or a combination of the two lol.
Lunch- cheeseburger's , cheesesteak, pasta, steak, pizza...anything i can get a hold of really..hoagie, when bulking bring another serving of mass gainer to work
last break, before gym- almost always chicken or pasta maybe some mashed potatoes.
after gym- serving of after shock, wait a little then my favorites usually a steak or pasta
after mma- serving of after shock anything i can get ahold of usually.
before bed- cereal and half serving of mass gainer

Not the healthiest, but i do eat. I work for the state lol, all we do is eat.


n my question to u is ez e. What exactly am i waiting for then? No disrespect, you would know better than me, I'm just sayin when your as much of a hard gainer as I am, theres not a whole lot more I feel I can do other than AAS. Other than maybe stop cardio completely, n just stuff my face for the next year. lol But I feel like as long as I do a cycle responsibly thats the better bet. N when Im doing the cycle i definetely wont be eating as much sodium n greasy foods.

You answered your own question, eating sodium and greasy foods has gotta go now, not when you start cycle...you need to get your diet down to a T before getting on cycle....

The thing a lot of people mistake is believing that they have everything perfect, we NEVER do, none of us....I know I don't, we get to the next level and things change....my guess is that you're not a hard gainer, you just need some help dieting...and when you get better on diet eventually you'll need to take that to the next level, and etc.....just like everyone, including me

iight iight i agree with that ez e. good advice. I have been slackin with the diet, i'll definetely focus on that first. I do believe i am a hard gainer tho. not impossible gainer, just sayin harder than most, always have had a really fast metabolism. Anyways thanks for all the good advice. Ill definetely focus on the eatin for now, n i'll keep uz posted. Thanks!

 

[Zyglamail]

Thanks Alot! All really good Advice. I agree Arabian I definetely am an ectomorph, and your right I believe it will come in time, but who wants to wait! haha I'm putting alot of time and effort in now at the gym and dieting, my entire lifestyle, so i would just like to see more results. So i believe I have the discipline to try AAS. Your all right tho I feel like I eat alot definetely more than most people but you can always eat more, and like you said arabian I'm an ectomorph, hard gainer, i'm not most people. So for now I'll definetely focus on eating more. I'll bump it up to 5500 than 6500. I'm sure I'll see results from that because i've done 5500 for a while before. N thanks blue, I'll definetely research that eq, n i totally agree that pct is just as important. N ez e i could see why you dont think i'm ready at 152 but i feel like I have enough discpline with my diet and everything to try AAS. I feel like I plateud with my upper body for now. I'm a pretty solid 152 hahaha seriously tho. most people assume i'm about 180. i dont see it but they do. Lower body I feel like I could still see some nice gains over time goinn natty but I jus figured the AAS would help me reach my goals faster. So i'll just eat more for now I wasnt plannin on starting my cycle until march anyway but I'll definetely blog it n let uz know it goes. Thanks alot i really aprreciate it!

Looking for quick fixes is what gets people into trouble and AAS a bad reputation.

The first question I have for you is why do you want to bulk if your a fighter? For starters, bulk WILL have a drastic effect on your endurance. You have good strength for your weight so what I would do if I were you is concentrate on more strength and worry less about mass. Training for strength and training for mass are two different things. With mass comes strength but size gains are primary. With strength work, strength comes first and mass secondary.

Im at the point in my life where mass means little, as a matter of fact I dont want to be 265lbs, too damn hard to find any clothes that fit and my endurance was in the toilet. Now im more concerned with functional strength. Of course im a bit smaller (230lbs) but have decent strength for an old timer and actually have some endurance as well.

Ill say this if you want to gain then diet will be about 95% of the problem for someone like you.

you need to cut all the bad food out and start adding LOTS of good food to your diet LOTS LOTS LOTS

if you train a lot you might need 6k of calories a day. nice good clean cals. 300+ grams of protein

so think of this.. thats 6 meals.. about 1k each 50 grams of protein each meal

thats 8 eggs a bunch of cheese and like 4 pieces of toast for breakfast.. and then 2 hrs later.. eat it all again

steak, rice, potatoes and veggies

fish rice , peas/carrots, bread

again think about eating 6 meals a day with 1000 calories

you will need to do something like this for a few weeks before even starting your cycle

also think about how you will schedule those meals around training so that you can eat and give yourself some time to eat and digest before training..

can you set your schedule up so you are lifting/running in the am and doing skill stuff at night?

adding some juice is the simple easy part....

First thing as far as the cycle goes Id run 16 weeks of test e or c at 500 mgs a week and possibly some equipoise at 500 mgs. You can do a dbol kick start at 40-50 mgs a day dor 4-6 weeks if you want. You obviously realize at this point your diet needs work, so all I will add is shoot for at least 6000 cals a day and 250-300 grams of protein. At your weight its not ideal to cycle but your grown and its your decision to make. I would advise that you fix your diet and training first before you start. You can do cardio and mma on juice and gain. If you want increased performance than strength and speed should be your goal. If you just wanna be heavier than cut back extreme cardio. Either way it takes heavy compound movements. For strength do the reps explosively and as heavy as possible. For speed use between 40-60% 1rm and move the weight as fast as possible, all reps heavy and light should be done under control. For size keep reps between 8-12 and weight should induce muscle failure. You can still train mma but recovery will be harder. So prioritize goals, then make a plan of attack. If you dont have a plan, then you plan to fail. Just keep everything simple and learn from your mistakes. Lastly drop the arm only workouts they are a waste for an athelete. Make your whole body strong and fast.

joe if he did that cycle he would not make it through his training.. 1g of sauce and the dbol would kill his cardio and make him feel like his heart was going to explode..

My advice would be eat more train less... you could easily add a bunch of quality weight (and performance) by getting your squat weight up, with the right amount of food and rest you could be adding weight to the bar every workout. With your MMA I'd recommend a 5x5 strength program, that way any mass you gain should improve your speed instead of slowing you down. You need to find a balance between your training and nutrition.
