Hey everyone

Im Yash, and i need some help.

As of now my stats are:
Height: 5'5, Weight: 125,
Arms: R 14.5 L 14.5 Chest: 38 Bench max 210

Ive been trying for a while to put on mass. As you can tell from my stats i can put muscle but i have a fast metabolism and have a hard time putting on mass. Does anyone have any ideas on maybe some good workouts for mass or exercises in general or, and nutritional ideas to help put mass?

PS. Im currently on NO Xplode, and have tried cell mass and nitrix

Thanks alot

Welcome...

Are you training now ? What are you doing ? What is your diet like ? meaning what do you eat every day....how often ? carbs,protein, calories ? Some info is needed.

Hey, thanks for getting back to me so fast

Well i train 4 days a week
Day 1: Chest and Bis
Day 2: SHoulders and Tris
Day 3: Off
Day 4: Legs
Day 5: Cardio/Core

My diet is as follows

6:30AM:2 egg whites, 2 pieces of toast, 1 bowl of oatmeal, and 1 glass of orange juice
8:00: 1 pbj sandwich and 1/2 cup almonds
10:30: balance bar, and 1 cup of cereal(usually cherrios)
12:15: 1pbj sandwich
1:45: lunch: 8oz chicken and 1 cup pasta, or 1 cup veggies
3:30: NoX
4:00-4:45: Lift

6

inner: 8oz chicken or 10 oz steak, with potatos or veggies

10: Protein shake Pro-Complex Chocolate 55 grams of protein

Im not sure what my calorie intake is, but as you can see im tryin to stuff as much food in as possible. Im still in high school so its hard to work out a strict diet. Also im taking an EMT class which on Mondays and Weds. stops me from eating from 7-10. Do you have any ideas about how i can change my diet? Or and other suggestion? If you have any other question let me know

thanks
Yash

Read up on a 5*5 program. That way you will not have to worry about over training or missing anything. And it works!

You are also going to have to eat more. You say you have a high metabolism, your just not eating enough. Calories in must be higher than calories burnt if you want to gain weight.

I agree with Talo. You need to eat more and the 5x5 program will definitely work. Good luck.

I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"
