Do you have any suggestions? Am I eating the wrong foods? I had 2 large chicken/ lean beef soft tacos after this last workout and a protein shake before. I usually eat some type of protein every 3 hours. |

Nice lifts Big C! Your lifts and weight are almost identical to mine. I was up to 242 about 2 years ago, and am 213 now, about the same as you. How old are you?
