new and need help

I've been having some results with increased protein and calories and working out for a half hour every other day. I had a friend on simbi.com redo my nutrition calculator here and develop a specific supersize regimen. I think this site's algorithm for weight gain is a little off.

I used to lift heavy things all the time at my old job. Worked on houses, landscaping, driveways etc. It was all physical labor but now I am a stay at home mom and do not have much time to myself to be able to focus on working out because I am too busy most of the time taking care of my little one and husband. I need to find a workout that will suit a stay at home mom who is constantly on the go.

There are several good lifting programs that can be found in this thread but realize, that while they are all work, some are going to be more beneficial than others. You can bulk with programs like "you are your own gym" but your gains wouldn't be as ideal as a good progressive overload lifting program. Having said that, if you are willing to accept that, then cool.

Second, you gains will be as good as they can be based on your consistency and dedication. Getting to 125 and being lean will probably take years. Women tend to get more fat gains (75% roughly), so you will have to work through cycles of bulks/cuts to get to that point.

Calories should roughly be 10-15% over your maintenance levels, protein should be around ~100-110g, and the rest can be carbs/fats.
