Looking to add 25lbs, what's the best way??

[duritz]

i'm 6'2 205, bench 365 and i am looking to put on some size for the winter in hopes of adding some muscle along with the fat. can anyone point me in the right direction for a workout routine and diet. I pretty much eat whatever i want, i don't do any cardio and i do a 3 day split chest/shoulders, back/biceps, legs/triceps. 8-6-4 reps with pretty heavy weight. please help

What type of excercises are you doing???? You might want to split your musle groups up to get some extra concentration on them to ensure muscle fatigue and positve failure for growth...

just eat like it is going out of style....

protein - 2.5 x bodyweight
carbs - 3.5 x bodyweight

dont worry about fat, eat good foods and let the fat be whatever

toss a 25 pound dumbbell in a backpack and carry it around. serious, B fold said it best. i said i am 170 and want to be 200. He said eat like a 200 pound person would. Eating seems to be a majority of this all out, too bad it is a pain in the ass.

1 jar of peanut butter a day along with your regular diet

I do bench, incline dumbells and flat bench flies on week 1 and then switch to incline, flat bench dumbells and pec deck on week two. i rotate these for chest. then i do military press, side and front raises for shoulders. back i do pullups with weight, then a tbar back row machine, then a pullover machine. for biceps i do straight bar curl, dumbell curl and then usually a machine curl. for legs i do squat, extensions, curls and calf raise. triceps i do close grip bench mixed with skull crushers once in a while, tricep pushdowns and then reverse one arm tricep extensions.

my best hunch is maybe you need to split it up into four day groups..
Back/traps
chest/delts
Legs
arms

I also would put in deads for some serious mass and ass to the floor squats... mess with the rep scheme... try 5x5 or maybe three sets to failure on each with the same amount of weight... For diet I would suggest eating a lot of branched carbs, rice, pasta and tons of peanut butter and protein... trey for about 3800-4000 cal a day and drink plenty of water. see how this works, plus be consistant...
