Hi everyone!

I'm that i've stumbled across this site!

just for a little intro, i've just started out a routine (powermatrix) and hopefully will gain ~15lbs.

I'm around 145lbs now, 5.5

I've taken CytoGainer but switched to Optimum Pro Complex along with the AnimalPak.

any advice, comments, criticism welcome.

Thanks again!

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!!!

I use Optimum's Pro Complex. Its low carb, but since i want to bulk up a bit more I'm actually ~155 maybe 10lbs more, so i might want to start taking weight gainer!?!!?!

Any advice/comments welcomed
