BULKING LIKE A BEAST! AND IT FEELS SOOOOO GOOD!

Supps: 100% Whey protein, Creatine Ethyl Ester, Fish Oil, Jack3d

my diet is moderately ok - a bit too much sugar, not quite enough leafy greens...  will start adding that in.

this mornign: 173.5 lbs

last night:
bench: 8 @ 105, 8 @ 110, 7 @ 110
rows: 3 x 8 @ 110.  just don't like rows.  period.
oh press: 3  x 8 @ 78
squat: 3 x 8 @ 150
pushups

i'm probably bulking @ 2/3rds muscle, 1/3rd fat, I estimate.

diet example for today:

1:30 am - small bowl of kashi cereal with 2% milk
7:30 am - large bowl of frosteed mini wheats with 2% milk
8:00 am - shot of olive oil
9:45 am - protein shake (usually about 8 am, had an appointment with my 3 year old) made with 2% milk
10:30 am - kashi granola bar
12:15 pm - bowl of vegetarian chili, good green salad.  usually have more carbs here.
3:00 - kashi granola bar
5:00 - a few potato chips in the car
5:45 - another protein shake - usually smaller
7:15 - bbq fake meat, 2 slices whole wheat bread, steamed carrots & peas, bbq beans.
10 pm - another protein shake.

While bulking try to stay away from the fats, carbs are your friend when bulking. Sugar in a very very moderate amount is ok, best after a workout for the insulin boost.

Rows took me a while to start to like. I hate squats... I applaud you for keeping with those. I will kill squats... However deadlifts are fun.

Winter Bulk goal:245-250 by dec 31
Current weight: 235

thanks for the input!

I do eat a fair bit of eggs and/or cheese, just not on that day.

Vegetarian, so the red meat just ain't gonna happen.

we buy 2% for our children, and my wife drinks skim, so, i don't really want to add a third type of milk to our household, just for practical reasons.

cutting now though (for the past week or so), so back to skim milk.

I would like to see progress pics, hope everything is going good, you seem to be packing the pounds.

Weight: 167

after i cut off a bit, i'll post some pix.
