Finally was able to use advice from the big guys here. . . .

This spring break I was able to: get 2g protien/lb of body weight, sleep 9 hours a night with a protien+fat snack in the middle of the night, concentrate only on lifting cuz I took grappling off.

Gained two solid pounds in one week. If there was any fat, it would have burned off by now during two grappling practices I had this week. My body sucks at maintaining a high enough body fat for bulking.

Good work spes! Hard work and dedication DO pay off. :woo:

Good job, I'm envious dude!
Envious of the fact you can sleep 9 hours each night. Even if I had the time, I would be incapable of that

Not each night, only during spring break. Now that i'm back to school, it'll drop down to 6-7 hours a night. Even down to 4-5 sometimes.

nice! 2lbs is a lot for a week bro. and school is a ***** since it kills your sleep and eating habits/timing. im on spring break too but i freaking got sick -_-

I would just like to note: you don't know what the fkk you are talking about spes.

I know that's a harsh thing to say. But you seem to be settling into that comfortable zone a newbie gets into where he thinks he's finally started to make sense of the loads and loads of info out there; the zone where you finally think you "know something" about bodybuilding. That's a pretty dangerous place for a newbie -- for ANYONE -- to be.

So I am just pointing out that what you think you know -- as demonstrated in your post -- is basically just wrong, unfounded or plain stupid. But I'll leave you to it. Good luck.

What was the point of your post? To get attention?

You critisize my knowledge, but you won't specify what part of my knowledge is wrong? I don't care what I 'seem' like to you, but if you would like to discuss nutrition and/or training, feel free to respond.

BTW, I'll always consider myself on the 'tip of the iceburg' in terms of knowlege. The training and diet advice I follow are those from people who have succeeded in gaining strength and size.
