Thanks everyone for your support! As to answer your questions: Im 23 I'm traning via the 'Power Matrix' and their rep/set methods (Bench/deadlifts) and then i work on my traps w/ weights, pull ups, and row machines. My diet consists of greens with chicken and or beef and a staple of rice. Along with the protien and vitamin suppliments. My goal is to bench over 300lb. and gain 15lb. if not more of muscle. Time frame wise, i dont mind taking it slow to build quality meaningful muscle ![]() I dont intend to get really 'big' because i participate in sports such as surfing/bodyboarding and snowboarding. I'm assuming too much is going to be a detriment to my sports. Thanks again! |

Do you take in any extra protein other then what's in the chicken and beef? If not, you should consider finding a high-protein, low-carb powder to add into your meal plan. My fave is Low Carb Isopure by Nature's Best, but there are others too.
oh and welcome!!! |
