Just trying to get big

Diet

Ended up eating dinner over a friend's and having a few drinks. Couldn't track the cals on the meal. It was beef potstickers and I had a lot, so the protein was there.

Combine an experienced lifter with instinctive training and a lot of food. . .and good things happen. Your volume is through the roof! I love the simplicity of it. People think you need lots of exercises, but I'm with you; take a few exercises and use varying intensity and volume to elicit whatever response you're looking for.

When all else fails, eat the protein foods. That's what I do.

Not much appetite today, probably because I just sat around all day.

HaHa!
Good idea on the Cube steak too! Yum.

And an overabundance of pressing! Do you really press on consecutive days regularly? Seems like that would be counterproductive? Just curious as I'm always wondering about different routines people do.

Great work and awesome diet! No 165 weakling in here.

hey man, how's it goin? i've noticed recently that i just don't seem to get enough press work in, and i also have naturally low upper body mass. from experience, i've found that, for myself, i need to press as often as possible or else my chest and delts don't seem to "get the message." i have to use pretty light weights to get in any sort of decent volume, and i seem to recover quickly from these workouts.

my biggest concern is monitoring my RCs and my elbows. i lifted heavy all during the holidays, and my elbows still feel sore. i've had RC problems in the past, but fortunately they're going strong. thanks man! really appreciate the comments.

Just another way to get some calories for those interested in bulking....

Cool, hope the suggestion helps you out.

I saw Girl Scout cookies. I always save 300 cals a day when I was cutting for something like that, but then again, i wasn't a competitor.
