Bulking
So I’ve decided to get serious about bulking. Over the next two months (till christmas) I’m going to basically eat as much as I can. I’m trying for at least 3000 calories. To get there, I’m going to continue eating the way I normally do (around 2000 calories a day) but throw in a couple of extra peanut butter and jam sandwiches. Two of those a day should give me an extra 800 calories at least. I also bought a tub of cytogainer. I’m going to try half a serving of that. Hopefully combined with 3 days of heavy lifting, 1 - 2 times a week sprinting (4 x 400 meters), 1 time a week indoor rock climbing and hot yoga 3 times a week, I will put on some decent muscle. I’m going to completely ignore the mirror, and not worry about any fat I put on. The limit will be that I’m not willing to buy any new pants, so if my waste line gets too tight, I’ll reduce my calories. I have a couple of inches space to spare on most of my pants, so that should give me plenty of space.
In the new year, I will reduce the number of calories I’m consuming again, try to eat cleaner, and focus on a bit more cardio (if I need to). I have my suspicions that if I reduce the calorie intake a bit, the fat will come off on it’s own.
I’ll see how that goes.
