Yeah. its supposed to be somewhere between 1.5-2grams of protein per pound of body weight... thats what i read...

If you are bulking, you do not need that much protein. 1 gram per pound will do.

Yes yes, true. Lotsa protein=good. You're gonna go with a 40/40/20? Or a 50/30/20 diet?

Read that t-nation article I posted? I think it's called "The truth about bulking"
Follow what the feller say. Should be good for you. .

Mmmm.....I read this article about Marius Pudzianowski takes nearly 400GMS of protein a day, and look how huge he is now. Apparently, it doesn't matter what your size is or what your workout is (Of course it's gotta be pretty heavy), with loads of protein, you'll grow big.

See you soon at the bodybuilding stage Neek!

Ok, finally completed my first HST workout...
i must say that my body is not usd to 15 reps. after squatting for 15reps i was out of breath... (suddenly i feel so unfit.. ugh... )

Squat 65kg
Incline Bench Press 30kg
Pull Ups 35 (lbs?) on machine
Deltoid Raise 10 lbs x2
Shrugs 40kgs
Bicep Curls 12.5 kgs (thats an empty short oly bar. )
Lying Tri Ext 15 kgs
Calf Press 65kgs

omg.. some of the weights looks so small and light (esp that empty bar for biceps curl... ) this is so embarassing...

Calories consumed so far approximately:
Cal 2289
Fat 60
Carb 186
Protein 235

I still have about 2 more meals to go, and a pre-bed-time casein protein shake to add in

Dang, i'm still al lil blur on how much protein to take. the AST sports science webpage say i shd take 256.92 grams of protein a day.
Then reading from hypertrophy specifc nutrition says 1gram/lbs of bw.
Feel like such a noob. **** it.... as long i get enough calories in a day....

Hey Neek:

WOW!! 235 g of Protein Per day! That's a lot. Hmm, how do you get them?

What supps are you on? and what natural foods are you gorging?

your waistline almost like mine, your poundages also

whats yer height bro?

Bread is good. High in calories and moderate in protein.

But avoid white bread. (High GI).

Just my opinion though.

I eat the wholemeal gardenia bread. so its not as bad as the white bread. wanted to go fot the breakthru bread, but that has less carbs.. and i need carbs since i'm bulking. so i'll stick to this wholemeal bread in the mean time.

im 160cm underweight guy
currently bulking.....
but i run out of money rite now to buy quality foods
lol

Chow.

hey neek , where do u get ur bodyfat caliper? how much it cost

Got it from bb.com about RM85 inclusive of delivery.
Couldn't really find it here.. didn't really bothered to drive up and down to look fer it tho
RM85 for a piece of plastic is not really what i had in mind . but RM85 to be able to tell my bf% more accurately then those machines might be well worth it. just gotta make sure i dun drop that caliper

hey haven't find out those maxes yet? u r taking so long man and why aren't u coming to the meet up?

Oh, i got the maxes, but some of them so low.. i shy to put them up la...
i'll just post up the weights that i lift for the days la..

Sorry to ffk you guys, my friend came back from australia and called me up. so had to catch up with him.

Hehehe, doesn't it hurt a little having to reduce the weights so much? hahah.....don't worry bro, you'll be goin through the stairs real quick.

Hurt a little? It hurts MASSIVE..... can you imagine standing in the gym curling an EMPTY short oly bar for 15 reps... -.-"
oh well, when thats all i can do for now, can't really complain can only blame myself.
just gotta progress slowly ler

oooo......HST is 1 week, all 15 reps, 2nd week all 10 reps and final week 5 reps eh?

i bangang bangang go and do 15 reps, 10 reps, 5 reps ........i was wondering how in the world people can go thru the entire workout.
