my workout schedule/routine is up in the first post.
 
im changing my diet so that im getting A LOT of protein, as in about 250-300g a day.  im taking in about 300-350 carbs a day, and the remainder of my calories are from fat(mainly from chicken, eggs, and olive oil).  it all adds up to about 3250 calories a day. i may even eat only 3000 calories on non-workout days, but i havent decided yet.  im trying to keep as much fat off as possible while gaining massive strength.
 
this bulk is probly gonna last til the beginning of march or april, cuz i want enough time to cut for prom which is in early june

Yeah yeah yeah, we've heard that one before.  Self-perception does not always (usually!) equal reality.  But this ain't the Critique My Physique forum, so carry on!  Looking forward to the answers to my other questions!

EDIT>DANG, he posted his answers before I got this post up!

Is 3250 about 500 over your basal requirement?

I would keep the calories consistent . . . your body needs the fuel to repair and build on non-workout days.  You probably don't need so much protein, but no harm.  How many meals a day?

Senior prom or Junior prom?!?

3250 is only 250 calories over maintenance but im gonna cut down on cardio, so itll be enough to gain.

Oh Yeah!

the split is working pretty good and i think i can handle the small amount of time i have for recovery inbetween workouts.  today im gonna be doing back/bi/ab day, so ill find out if theres any improvements there yet.
 
i dont do enough leg work for it to earn its own day IMO.  i do leg work more because i have to not because i enjoy it or want to.  although i do like deadlifts if im fully awake, lol

IM BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER!!!!!
