My Goal...

[Ceros]

Ok awesome...well I can't really change my supper because my parents don't like me being really concerned about my diet and eating habits. But anyways...I think I will stat eating differently I can basically wonly change my breakfast and lunch. so what do you suggest? yours? and also I bring my lunch to school so it can't be anything to cook related and such. And thanks for all the help again! and also even if I do gain a little fat when I start eating a bunch more I can just put more miles on my miles per week log. And also I will take my protein 4 times a day like you said. Thanks again for all the help!

For lunch, you could bring a couple of chicken breasts and get a salad from the school (no dressing though, just get your greens, carrots, and eggs on there). Chicken breasts are easy to cook, and don't take much time. If you don't already, you can get interested in cooking techniques. It honestly only takes about 10-15 minutes to cook a package of chicken breast. Cook it at night; take it with you in the morning.

As for dinner, just tell your parents you want sirloin steak, and you want it now damnit! Top sirloin is perhaps the most protein-dense cut of meat around, with around 80-90 grams, depending on method of cooking, for a 10 oz cut. It also has the least amount of fat and sodium out of all the red meat cuts.

Chicken breast, sirloin, and fish, all the time. I understand you pretty much have to eat what your parents fix for dinner, and that's fine. You're not going to hurt too bad if mom cooks meat loaf or chicken fried steak for dinner. You're 15-16 years old; your testosterone levels are roaring, and that's a huge advantage that you have over a 28 year old man who is trying to achieve the same goals as you are.

Don't become worried about putting fat on. I wouldn't increase your cardio levels. In fact, my cardio sessions are never more than 25 minutes! HIIT (high intensity interval training) is perfect for somebody looking to build lean muscle mass while keeping fat levels low. Running 3 miles a day is only going to put your body in a catabolic state because you're using up so much energy from your carbs that your body will look to your protein levels for energy. Cutting into your protein levels during cardio only makes your muscle building process that much slower. My personal opinion, don't do long distance training. It will only negate all the hard work you put into consuming a lot of protein.

Well I really don't want to go to any hassle...so I think I'll just stick to what I have and when I can pack some no dressing salad and some carrots and whatever other vegies we have.

That statement sums it up. You don't have the dedication or drive that it takes to see any type of progress and until you get that in check you will never see results. Don't think you can just half ass it and see results. You have no idea how disciplined and devoted many of the guys are around here. You are wasting your time.

Well I really don't want to go to any hassle..

It's not easy. Then again, if it was, everyone would be huge and ripped.

Come back when you want it enough

You have some Jkurz tendencies, may want to read up on that member here, he's working towards being big and ripped.

Well...I'm motivated and I do really want to bulk up. I just can't do stuff like bring a chicken breast or something to school. Because it prolly won't fit in my backpack, and yah plus my parents don't want me to be too obsessed with this bodybuilding thing. So I'll change my diet but I don't know much about it...why can't I just workout and take my protein? I don't mean to like say that I'm not dedicated, just not as much as most people on here and yah idk...so should I drink a protein shake with my lunch? and here are some pics of me...

biscept and core.

Bro you've got HUGE potential to become a beast. Most guys in the 10th grade would love to look like that. Hell, most grown men would like to look like that. You've got the genetics for it dude....I would get serious about it. Tell your parents you showed strangers on the Internet your pics and some dude said you need to bodybuild.

yay! should I join weight lifting at my school? and plus those aren't the greatest pics in the world...I'll get some new ones. And ya I'm totally vein right now...cause last night like a group of like 10 chics told me I have the most beautiful face, and I was wearing a sweater, so if that's true about my body and my face and hair...lol I'm lucky...thanks man, whether all this is true or not, it really raised my self esteem.

No, fuck weight lifting...the only people that enroll in those classes are emo morons and PE dropouts who just cut the lifting and go sit in the back room drawing pictures of people slitting their wrists.

Of course, if the class will actually let you use the football weight room equipment, and not the 20 year old broken machines in the auxillery room in the PE gym, then go for it. Just get all of your advice from elite fitness forums on workout plans, and diet. The advice here is better than what you'll find in any gym and most personal trainers. All it takes is dedication. I can't follow the diet perfectly since I'm in college (you know, that money thing), but I have still made big gains in my physique just by following the simple rules laid out on these forums.

Ok, ok. Well I got a few questions...
1. I work in a restraunt, and I can get some free hot green tea packets, should I add like 16oz of green tea to my diet?

2. how does this sound...I take my protein shake before and after workouts...and then depending on when I do my workout ( before I go to bed or when I wake up ). I'll additionally take it before i go to bed, or when I wake up...like I said depending on when I do my workout...and on days I don't workout, I take it when I wake up and when I go to bed.

3. I have whey protein, is it bad or for that matter at all possible to take too much of it...

4. is drinking water good for a person...I drink 5 liters a day, and since that it has really cleared up my face alot and my doctor says it good for a person.
