This is Monday to Friday. I have to be honest I drink alcohol heavily on either Friday or Saturday night sometimes both. I do still eat 3 large meals a day on the weekend but not like the above. Will this really affect my size gains?
Bro this is called grazing and it just does not work real well for gaining weight. You should drop your meals back to 4-5 really big meals per dsy, protein heavy and rich.
Sorry I have not actually done a calorie count intake of all this. I have just assumed that it is enough? I have got some creatine though have not really taken it as yet.
set yourelf up a food log on FitDay.com. Its easy and fast and then no guessing. You will know your cals and the macro breakdowns.
Training
10min run/punch bag warm up before every session
Stop this bro. WU 5 min easy pedal a bike or walk a treadmill.
Sunday: Chest/Triceps/Calves/abs –Bar bench press 3 sets – 40kg including bar 1st – 45kg 2nd – 50kg 3rd set. All of these I do at least 8 reps. Sometimes I fatigue to quickly so can only do 5 reps on the last set.
Incline bar bench press – 3 sets 8 reps min – slightly lower weight than the flat bench.
Cable flies 3 sets 8 reps.
Monday: Shoulders/back/abs - 3 different exercises for each muscle – 3 sets 8-10 reps.
Tuesday: Rest
Wednesday: Legs/abs – Squats with 120lbs punch bag balanced on shoulder. You have to pick it up and sling it over your shoulder. For the first 3 weeks of doing this I could only do 6 reps for 3 sets. Now I am on 12 reps per set. I love this exercise; I would recommend it to anyone. It’s great for your core too.
2 more exercises hitting my quads and hamstrings.
Thursday: I either do chest or shoulder/back depending one which muscle group feels fresher. I don’t think this is the right thing to do though?
Friday + Saturday: Rest
Any feedback would be much appreciated. It is quite unorganised as you can see. I have put on 6lbs in a month of training which is great. Though I need more!!
Thanks
