to the original question of getting bigger etc by ydutry4
so you've got yourself a diet, and a split training program etc.
and you've worked out how much cals are in what foods I assume and will measure it up to gert the right number of calories as you've been told.
but the fact is... if you ate 6 meals each day which had a chunk of meat and a bunch of veg, and washed each of those meals down with 500ml of full creame milk, and did 3 sets of 5 rep squats, 3 sets of 5 rep bench, 3 sets of 5 rep press, and 1 set of 5 reps deadlifts, 3 times a week you will get bigger and stronger.
now I don't have any science or menshealth links to prove this. and I'm not a bodybuilder in anyway.
let us know how you go after 8 weeks.
maybe take photos for your own benefit to judge how much you've changed in 8 weeks following the diet you've got and the split you are going to do.
