If you want to build muscle then you should be working at 3-6 rep range for 3-5 sets. Try using thumbs out grip on your rows and pull from your elbows. Yes you’ll feel it in your biceps but if you’re feeling it there most then it simply means they’re doing more of the work not your back. Switch your back exercises around…

Try drinking more cals too. Put things like oats, peanut butter, whole milk and banana in a blender blitz it and you can easily get 1000 cals in you at the start of your day.

I'd say try and drink more cals. Try 100g of oats, 60g PB, a medium banana and 400ml whole milk, blitz it in a blender and it's about 1000 cals. Add me as a friend if you like, my diary is open and may give you some ideas.

Hi Chris. I'm currently bulking too and was struggling to hit my required carb intake. I'm now eating Rice Krispies as a carb filler which is better balancing out my macros but I still sometimes find it a struggle.

I started with stronglifts 5x5 last summer and made good strength gains but wasn't eating enough so didn't gain much weight. Since then I've done 10x10 and 10x3 program's and gone from 62kg to 71kg by eating a lot more food.

Yeah that's the one. Have you tried it?

Hi. I'm Craig, I'm new to mfp and trying to gain lean mass, into strength training and bodybuilding. Looking for friends to share training tips, nutrition advice, motivation and just have a laugh with like minded people whilst on my journey. Feel free to add me

Thanks I'll have a look

I'm trying to gain muscle and strength. I started on stronglifts 5x5 last November which helped me build a good base. I'm now doing a 10x3 routine with hypertrophy work in between. I was 9st 12lb when I started I'm 10st 13lb now so it's going well

Hi, yeah didn't think of that. I'm into strength training mostly.
