170 pounds. 6"1. not that much.

i really need help - please share your diet if you're taking 4,500-5,000 calories daily. thanks!!!!

I am currently bulking up on a 4-5,000 calorie diet. I'm 6'1 and weigh 170 pounds. In addition to real food, I take 3 portions of 'WEIGHT GAINER 900" (900 calories in each portion) and a protein shake (55g). I also take 1 multivitamin pill and 1 fish oil capsule. Someone recommended that...

i seem to get a feeling that people work out more than 3 times a week, unlike what I read from the HST docs. so, is it 3 or more? 5 with am/pm splits? full body workout or each muscle group per day? it's REALLY confusing since what i understood is: HST = 3 times a week, with increasing loads...

what should be the balance between whey protein/animal protein that I consume from red meat? thanks!

what should I go for, considering the price is the same where it sells. thanks.

done. please check your messages.

If I am planning to determine maximum weights for 15 reps, how many sets do I do for each muscle? Should I do 2 or 3 and I have to consistently lift that weight? After all, muscles get tired after a set. Or should I count maximum weights as something that I can lift in 1 set while I didn't...

I noticed a rather large (in terms of muscles) guy at the gym working out his torso. He did about 5 various exercises for his biceps. Alternating weights and reps. On HST Ic do 1 exercise with 3 sets for each musle group. Am I wrong? I honestly have a feeling that I'm not doing something...

Any generous souls here willing to share their full upper body workout Iroutine? I don't have anyone to help me and reading web sites that suggest different exercises for different muscles didn't help me in putting together a workout program. It doesn't have to be sophisticated.. I am planning...

Thanks for your answer. I don't have that much of a belly but it's "getting there". So here are two final questions: 1) If I do decide to lose the fat first, how much do I cut in calories? Maintenance level? Below? 2) If I do decide to gain muscle and weight (I actually need to gain...

Can both objectives be accomplished at the same time? If I eat under the maintenance requirements then there will be no point in doing HST, right -- where will the body take all the necessary energy to build the muscle mass? Thanks for answering.

Re, I've emerged with a visible belly after this winter and found out that doing sit-ups and whatnot builds muscle underneath the flab but does not help to eliminate it. So, I was advised to do cardio to "sweat the fat out" (literally, burn it). I'm 6"1 and weigh 175 pounds...

in a sample diet it says 1 cup of this, 1 cup of that.. would that be COOKED or UNCOOKED? 1 cup of cooked rice? 1 cup of cooked cream of wheat? (that's 16 spoons uncooked!)? 1 cup of cooked oat meal? please, advise! it's been almost 2 weeks since i've started working on my diet. still...
