I agree with Mike , too many calories for a 170 guy and to much milk ( i think you are already a big boy to drink that much) also i prefer Regular Oatmeal in the morning and instead the pankakes.

Take off 1000 cals and increase the calorie intake from protein when you get stocked in a weight.

Good luck!!!! and train smart.

gt rid of the muscle milk pw and replace it with a god whey isolate, the calories look a bit high for someone your size but if you can eat that amount and not get too fat and still bend over to tie your shoes without throwing up then go for it!

I don't want to be too critical, but I eat alot more than that on a contest diet!!! Just for example Meal 1- 2whole 10egg whites (dozen total), bowl of rice prolly bout 300-400gms, wholegrain toast w/honey, Black coffee no sugar and 1tbs flax oil. along with vits etc. meal 2- 1dozen hb eggs, discard yolks, protein drink and coffee. etc,etc.

You def need more food if you are bulking. What's your age?

I think you can drop some of your fat intake and bump up with protein. I try to use the 45% pro. 35-40% carbs and around 10-15% fat.

Brother, you need to eat like this every day. Take an off day from this once a week and purge it good w/some good old fashioned junk. Your fave pizza, a couple of Subway's, ice cream, burgers. Dont trip some of the more "stricter" feedback. Your not gonna get fat from doing this one day a week, trust me.

Ok, you're a newb. It's all good. But pay attention to the above posts and to gain you need to eat. Stick with the big compound movements. Remember the BIG 3: Deadlift, Squat and Bench. Go hard on these lifts. it will make your body push into overdive. Heavy lifting like these makes your hormone system put out!! As long as you are eating right. at 5'8" you should be able to pack some good mass on that frame. Keep us updated please.

 

[GeorgeMiami]

calories are going based on gavin kane's hardcore bulking article part 1 where states that 30gkal per pound of body weight 170lbs x 30= 5100kal per day
i am consuming 4806kal per day i actually have to increase 294kal

 

[GeorgeMiami]

I think your diet is ok, but like someone else said ditch the muscle milk PWO replace it with isolate. Also if your trying to bulk cut back on the training days 5 days a week might be too much try three and hit the compound lifts hard. Eat your ass off and you will grow.

IMO, this is the best advice given so far... 5000 calories is all well and good if you're 170lbs. and you're ON cycle, but if you're not on any AAS a diet like this @ 170lbs. will probably pack the bodyfat on in a hurry...

Everyone is different though... what's your current bf%?

 

[GeorgeMiami]

bodyfat is at 15%
