Progree Update!

Progress Update!

Ok, so some of you know I'm going from the military and MMA and working my way into bodybuilding I had a 7 month lay off from the gym due to accidents. I started out 4 weeks ago @ 169lbs/13% bf. Currently I'm up to 184lbs/11% bf, my goal is to hit at least 190 in the next 4 weeks. My chest isn't developing to its potential, I am unable to do bench press due to a collar bone injury so I've been stuck doing DB presses/flyes. I'll take some pics either tonight or tomorrow and put them up. I will admit, I cheated my diet a few times (You ever had one of those Chicken Carbonnara sandwiches from Quiznos?! Dear fucking LORD they are good!!!!), but so far I've stuck to it pretty well.

Meal 1: 6 eggs, 1 cup oatmeal, 1 handful almonds/walnuts, 2 tbs flax seed oil
Meal 2: 1 scoop whey (25g), 2 scoops NLarge2, 1 large banana
Meal 3: 8 oz salmon, steamed baby spinach and assorted greens
Meal 4: 1 scoop whey, 1 scoop NLarge2, large banana
Meal 5: 8 oz beef or chicken, assorted greens
Meal 6: 1 scoop whey, 1 handful walnuts/almonds

I'm thinking of upping my protein intake, add 1 more scoop of whey in there and an extra 8 oz of meat.

Thanks for all the support and help!

P.S: I'm going to bulk up for another 6-7 months or so, do a practice contest prep, bulk one more time, and do my prep for my first competition.

Put around 60gm of good carbs in post workout. This can be in your drink or what ever. Add some extra virgin Olive oil to your diet also.

I just bought some 100% brown rice cakes, no flavoring added. I'll munch a couple of those post workout and take some olive oil with meal 4

Heres a recent pic, I'm too ashamed to put my before pics up (It was after several injuries including a nearly fatal motorcycle accident so i was REALLY out of shape). I'm in at 185lbs right now, keeping my bodyfat down with a LOT of heavy bag work.

Nothing to be ashamed of...just keep up the good work.

I think your are doing far too many activities to really recover and grow. Just don't be suprised if you don't gain much weight. You grow when you are resting.

I have a pretty simple training split; Arms, Back/Shoulders, Chest, Legs, day of rest. At the end up of each training session I do abs or heavy bag, alternating.
