Looking good for 16 there man, you must have a fair idea what you are doing already, welcome to the forum. Post your question in Bodybuilding power lifting section.

Hi Mark. Looking good! As Dumbelldog says, post up your diet and routine in their respective forums, and we'll check them out for you. Especially at 16, your diet is going to be the key thing to you bulking up.

pretty good for 16.

Basically any lean meat - chicken, beef, or lamb. Lean pork is ok, but bodybuilders tend not to eat this so much - I guess because it has a slightly lower protein than the other meats.

Nuts are also a good source of protein, but they have a high proportion of fat too, so use them as a snack or protein top-up, rather than a full meal.

thanks everyone. im stuck in a town with no bodybuilding help so this site is great. whats the rules for stuff like junk food and biskits and that? i reali need to find somewhere else to train but im to young to afford to drive 30 minutes to the next gym every second day so i have to put up with the half ass one im at

yea very good for 16. look in the nutrition section for some good advice on what to eat. just go as hard as you can at your town gym or you could always purchase some weights off trademe when the gym starts getting too small for you.
