Have to stay focused…
I know a lot of people on here are fighting hunger and really forging strong will power to avoid snacking on excess junk, but I’m having the opposite problem. I’ve already gone through the diet phase of my life, not eating food is easy for me. Now I just have to really focus and make sure I eat ENOUGH so that I grow. I’ve never measured my metabolism and calculated the exact amount of food I need but I just sort of played around with different amounts until I found the amount that works for me, and you know what? I need a LOT OF DAMN FOOD! I have to eat so damn much to grow… I weigh around 192-195 right now and I’m pretty lean, I’m guessing around 10-13% bf, so that’s a pretty decent amount of mass reving my metabolism up. On top of that I’m trying to bulk while keeping my cardio up, so I run 3-4 days a week. I’ve been having amazing results for a few months now, I just have to stay focused. The last couple of days have been a little bit disappointing and I think it’s from a combination of not enough sleep and not enough food. I’m going to make up for the difference by taking a couple days off from running and just eating as much as I can (still smart eating though, I eat at least 6 meals and all clean food.) I will do one more week at 4 sets of 10 reps to try to see if I can get some results out of that range and then starting increasing weight and going down to 5 sets of 8 reps, and eventually 6×6. I may possibly even go further to 5×7, for some real nice strenght gains, who knows. I love the heavy weights

Hey mikschu - If you can stay as focused in the kitchen as you are in your workouts, you’ll keep up with that metabolism and pack on the weight that you want. Keep it going bro … Brian
