fill in the X. I am gonna get a diet going, high protein, high carb, maybe high calories(gotta see how much to get there, 3.5-4k?).
my cardio = boxing or running

So Fill in the X.. how many weeks would 10 pounds take?

Currently:
age: 15
Height: 5'10"
150 lbs.
BF% unknown...

Benching 100 lbs. atm... I was doing 75 before summer, but I think its just because I wasnt pushing myself cuz 75 is nothing, I'm gonna really work this time around so I am gettin a diet also. And I predict the 100 goin up a bit too hopefully quick :p

Also, I gotta work in as many meals as possible, I get morning 7am meal, a 12pm meal, and then a 2:30 meal best so far, damn school. then maybe one or two more...
 
3500k = 1lb. so technically you could gain 10lbs in one day if you ate your Caloric minimum PLUS 35000 kcal.


A question like that is unreasonable, their is no average, there is no guess. Everyone is soo different, and I bet your diet isn't even close to where it should be.
 
ahh ok, well thanks then..

And I'm gonna work on my diet getting like 135g's of protein a day, carbs idk yet, and meal plan is harder cuz damn school but I'm working on it. At the moment tho, ur right, my plan sucks basically, i got none pretty much...

I didn't mean to detour you. Eat the best possible, up your protein to around 150-175g a day. Hard, maybe. But you will love the gains. Hunker down and get your diet in check, then all ya gotta do is lift and sleep and you'll grow as fast as YOU can.

Allright thanks for the tip. I just heard that taking off BF% of ur total weight is good for protein.. like I mean (cuz that didnt make sence probly) I weigh 150. If I got 10% BF then I should get 135g's a day. But I think I'll try and push for 150g's instead..
sleep might be a problem but I hope that the workout will get me tired enough so I can get at least 8 hours of sleep, not 5.5-6.5 hours

Since your bulking, I believe you should do this plan.

Sunday- Rest
Monday- Chest
Tuesday- Shoulders
Wendsday- Arms (triceps, biceps, even forearms)
Thursday- Legs
Friday- Core (abs, upper back, lower back, and maybe some powercleans)
Saturday- HIIT (high intensity interval training)

Do 3-4 exercises each day (with the scheldule) like for bench do Flat BB bench, Dumbell Flys, Decline Bench, Incline Bench. Use 50-70% of your max do 3 sets of 10. Or for the main exercises like Bench, Squat, Deadlift, Military Press you can do 4 sets of 10.

Someones going to have to confirm the scheldule I'm not 100% sure.
 
hmm allright.. lately I been doin big on chest & arms. then I also do legs a small bit, back & shoulders a little. And I like 4 sets of 8 reps mostly.

What are powercleans?
I havent dont HIIT yet so I'll have to look up that...
idk, it just doesnt seem like I'd be doing so much at that rate, I was thinking at least like...

Day 1- Chest/triceps
Day 2- Back/Biceps
Day 3- Shoulders/Legs
Day 4- HIIT
Day 5- Rest
with abs thrown in there sometime

and repeat.

I do that cuz it is in groups and its supposed to work well.
But someone else with knowledge of mass muscle gain let me know if I should do my grouping or the individual kinda style of jman

Thanks a lot jman btw, and all the others so far...

EDIT: Oh and my right pec is larger than the right but I assume its best to just let them work together and it'll end up evening out a bit correct? rather than working the left pec more, if possible...
