Mass

Hey everyone,
Let me start of by saying i am a freshman in highschool and weight 200 pounds. My problem is i do not look 200 punds i look like 185 and i need to get big for football. I dont get it because i am getting very strong on my football powerlifting workout but not bigger. The varsity coaches are plannign to move me up to varsity for linebacker but only if i get bigger. Im looking to be like 215 by next august. I dont really want to be cut or anythin i just wanna be buff. I read somewere that this would be an ideal time to start taking supplements bc mt lack of results. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

well first of all what is your diet like right now?  also you might want to know that the "feedback and suggestions" forum is actually meant for feedback about this site to the admin (Marc David), lol.

Ha my bad. Anyways mourning i have oatmeal, orange juice, and a bannana. Lunch i have turkey sandwich on wheat and lettuce, water, apple, carrots. Then i work out from 3:20 to about 4:15 after school. Then supper i usualy have either chicken and rice or chicken salad or pasta and tomato sauce( I live in a very Italian family so i usually have alot of olive oil and bread).Alot of high protein foods. I also take Omega 3 and Lysine in the mourning after breakfast. And i realize that i should be eating more but im in high school and i only have a chance to eat at most three meals a day.

coming into my sophmore year after doing this diet and lifting plan i weighed 178 and was around 8% body fat. make sure you going full out on your lifts and not half assing it. another thing when your eating try to eat all your foods and only after you done eating drink something. you want to get all the nutrients in you before you get to full to eat any more. if you have questions just message me.
