And I would recommend a whey protein powder at least for pre/post workout. Nothing unnatural about protein. Also some high GI carbs for the same purpose. It's all in the nutrition stickies.



Some general advice. If you want to gain mass, do it for YOURSELF. Not to satisfy a weight chart. You'll be more succesful that way. Hell, theres even a fancy term for it: inoteric behavior as opposed to exoteric behaviour. Inoteric meaning that you do things because of their intrinsic value to you and you alone instead of some outside consideration.
