Yah, Chris is pretty motivated, he wants it right now. Not a bad thing. He did send me some pictures of himself.
He is rather tall and can use a bit of mass.
That gallon of water I actually didnt suggest I suggested a gallon of ice water burned about 150 calories.
Chris is basicly looking to gain some lean muscle and drop some body fat.
It is something that a new guy in the gym can actually achieve.
Being fresh in the gym one can have fantastic gains.
This is why I want him to do basic compound exercises.
I think Chris is the same age as you Paul.
38 right Chris?
For the supps, I prefere fish oils over Udo's, I hope this does not start a debate on EFA's
Most people get enough Omega 6's in their diets in fact for the most part get too many 6's so the ratio of 3 to 6 is a bit off. This increases inflammation and can have its own set of problems.
Anyway, I did suggest Chris to eat 6 meals a day but not huge meals.
When I looked at his diet it just didnt seem like any kind of volume, some where around 1600 calories (at a glance).
But Paul is better to give you a routine over me and Big as well, seems I probably did'nt have it right as a result of overtraining (Or I am just gettin old
).
Chris, you can ask all the questions you want right here in your own personal thread. All the information will be right here for you to reflect back on and accessable from any computer.
Some times I store stuff her so I know right where to find it.
As above, supps, creatine, fish oils, multiple vitamin/mineral supplement would do nicely.
Did you get that personal trainer to show you the basic compound exercises?
Did he watch your form and give you advice?
