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...

i bought salmon & fish oils in capsules. 1g each capsule. i hate when they don't really specify much information about nutritional values. 1 capsule: EPA - 180mg DHA - 120mg Omega-3 - 300mgg The label says take 3 capsules a day. Well, I am combining this into my diet along with Flax Oil...

1. I eat oat meal/etc. as per the sample diet, however, I need something to go with my meat :) Barley doesn't taste as good as sweet potato. 2. I thought the whole purpose of eating tuna is the omega-3 and other nutrients that one gets from fish. If it's all about protein, then I'd rather eat...

re, i am trying to bring some variety to my daily diet. currently I am basic my diet on HST's eat-for-size article. would anyone suggest against doing the following: 1) replacing rice with potato? btw, when the article says "1 cup" - does that mean 1 cooked cup of rice or uncooked...

I was just about to post on a different subject when my the topic of tuna consumption caught my eye. This week is my last week of the 1st cycle. I was 73kg when I started and now I weight 82. Don't know how much it is creatine, but my loading phase was 1 week before the actual program. My...

Re, I have no access to any literature about excercising and people are the gym don't speak the same language (I happen to be in another country now). After long hours google'ing around, I found a great site: http://www.exrx.net/Exercise.html It has animated instructions how to work every...
