*I have done several splits; push/pull, 3-day splits, etc... but figured I would mix things up a little bit and give this a go...I will start tracking the weights I am doing and post them starting tomorrow. I am just basically trying to just gain strength and size. I will take measurements and post them as well to track progress. Thank you for any feed back you, let me know if you think I should tweak the program a little bit to better fit my goals.

Nutrition:
I will be at about 3500 cal. trying to bulk a bit with about a 40/40/20/ split.
Main sources:
Protein-chicken, fish, pork, whey protein
Carbs-brown rice, sweet potatoes, beans
fats-mostly from fish, almonds, peanut butter
*Will be adjusting accordingly with what I eat on that particular day..

Here is a link to an album and my current physique...
