Food wise your diet isnt that good really, you arent getting enough protein by the looks of things.

Personally for me since we are both tall and thin ;) i'll tell you what Im eating for a bulk.

8:00 Morning, 6 whole eggs, 2 wholemeal toast depending on if I feel I need the carbs. Normally do training days.

11:00 3 oatabix, 3/4 pint of milk ( skimmed or semi skimmed depending on how Im feeling ) flax seed powder, scoop of whey.

1:30 2 chicken breast or equivilant tuna or salmon, brown rice and vegies

4:30 same as 11 but will alter ammounts again depending on how Im feeling.

6:30 same as meal 1:30

10:30 plenty of cottage cheese or calcium casein

plus plenty of supps

I dont really follow the whole post workout shake idea, sometimes ill have some whey after if I feel there has been a large gap between meals. Pre workout ill take CEE and I really notice the difference. Hope this helps


Whats in this mass builder ? Im guesss alot of simple carbs, you may aswell be eating mars bars.
I forgot to mention legs. I do some bodyweight excercises like weghted lunges etc for legs, but I'm quite bottom heavy. My legs are out of proportion with my top half - I don't have skinny legs like my top half, so want to put on some weight on top first.

I also play squash 1 or 2 times a week, however had a couple of weeks off to concerntrate on lifting which probably helped towards putting on fat.

The weight gainer is MyProtein.

So do you reckon the right way to go would be - squash once/twice a week, and substitute the weight gainer for just whey protein?

Thanks
