My split has been fairly undisciplined recently -

What i am aiming for is 4 or 5 sessions a week.

-- with shoulders,legs,chest,back,tri,bi,calf all getting direct work.

I know if i can really stick to things i get fairly good results! I am hoping having this journal with people chasing me will help me stick to things!

I have zero interest in power lifting, getting more into shape/bodybuilding/fitness is more what i have in mind.

how long have u been training/gyming for?

I have been pretty on and off for a while - when i was younger i spent a little time in the gym.

I do not have much gym time served - and what to change that.

If you are trying to get bigger you need to be doing more volume than that. How much are you eating?

Yes i am aware my volume needs to go up.

This workout was my first in about 6 weeks.

(also i was limited to what equipment i had avalible at the time, not at my normal gym)

One of the problems i have had with my training in the past is that i have gone full bore from day 1, burnt out - for whatever reason - probably diet not being on par etc. so i decided that i would gradually get back into things, and while doing this i could make sure diet, rest, etc was all p to par so that when i start to really train hard i dont end up feeling (and being physically) sick.

I also really want to focus on squeezing the muscle and feeling the contraction when i train as apposed to just throwing around a few weights -which is part of the reason why i used lighter weights than i could of. in my mind - i am there to work muscle to get bigger.. not to move big weights and look cool. i do accept that i need much more volume however!

i think on the day i did this workout i ate:

breakfast - 4 weetbix + protien shake

lunch - 185g can of tuna + wholemeal rolls x 3

dinner - chicken breast stirfry with rice & vege

Let me know any suggestions etc that may help

definatly male last time i checked!

am not trying to cut - the last serious attempt i made at sticking to going to the gym i found i was having a lot of cardio trouble, especially when training legs doing many sets of squats.. i found that i really seemed like i was having trouble with my cardio fitness and this almost always led to throwing up after training legs which is something i want to work on.. or bring to an acceptable level.

You need to add two or three more meals to your day. Have a look through Soundsgood's or Android's journals and see how much they eat. If you want to get to 100kgs then eating as much as those monsters is a good place to start! :grin:

Should i be eating right before bed? eg: shake just before?

i could add in a meal around morning/afternoon tea time?

must go buy tons of chicken and beef AND veges

[Luigi]

if you want to get big you need to be eating constantly, every 2-3 hours and decent sized meals with plenty of clean/complex carbs and protein from various sources, dont forget your healthy fats too, but yea have a browse through those journals and youll get an idea of what you needa be eating.

Thanks for the advice how important are veges in the scheme of things?
