     Ever sense the start of October I have been starting to bulk. Bulking is a muscle-gaining phase we’re your supposed to consume more calories then you burn to put in weight. I am currently 160 pounds and I’m trying to reach 175 pounds. My bulking phase isn’t going so see now because my body naturally struggles with putting on weight. This means I consume a lot of calories and protein each day in order to keep my weight increasing. In the end I want to bulk to 175 and then cut back down to 155. In order to do this I need to stick to my diet I made for myself and keep adding my pounds to my pounds. 

   Today is pull day which is a back and biceps workout. My main focus today is to focus on higher reps for lighter weight to really burn the back and work those back muscles a little extra today. Imma start off with standing barbell rows to work the mid and lower section of my back. Im going to try and get 4 sets of 15 - 20 reps. Next I'm going to move on to lat pull downs to hit my outer lat's. This workout will conclude 4 sets of 15 reps as well. To finish my back workout I'm going to jump over to face pulls to work my upper back with 4 sets of 15 reps. My goal is to work all sections of my back to get that full back day workout. After back I'm going to jump over to a bench and do seated curls to focus on that full contraction of my biceps. I wanna shoot for 4 sets of 12 and really pushing myself to get that last rep. To conclude my workout I'm going to work on my outer biceps doing hammer curls with 4 sets of 12 as well. This with conclude my pull day.  What I A...

      Monday is always push day (chest, triceps, and shoulders) for me. This workout I wanted to focus more on heavier weight and pushing myself to max intensity. My workout concluded starting off on bench press and working myself up all the way up tp my max bench (215). After bench press I worked high to low on the cables making sure I work all muscles on my chest. The key to cables is making sure I got full reps even if it wasn't a lot. I then went over to pec fly's and worked on getting full contraction on my inner chest. After my chest workout I did two triceps workouts and two shoulder workouts. These concluded pull downs and skull crushers for triceps and lateral raisers and front delt raises for shoulders. For both of these muscles sense its an easier muscle to work, I wanted to focus more on getting full reps and really feeling the muscle contract rather than high fast reps.  What I ate this day  Breakfast  Potatoes 2 eggs Bagel with cream chee...
