Ok no matter what you do if you want to bulk you will gain fat. Look it’s not the end of the world as a lot of the gains if done properly will be muscle. If you eat clean and cycle your carbs then you will bulk clean. Besides after your bulk is done just cut again. That’s my two cents I’ve been doing this for over 20 years

Well there are a few good answers here so no need for me to confuse you more.

Welldone and hot

I personally like to use a protein powder that has no carbs as I cycle them but if you are bulking then really doesn't matter. There are so many brands out there and honestly they all do the same thing.I always recommend that you try to eat your protein but if you absolutely cant then take a whey powder.

Of course you will loose weight dude but if you do just a tiny bit of even just walking each day or even twice a week to start with it will improve your health a lot. Eventually as you loose weight it will become easier to move and exercise so things will start to get better but don’t ever give up.

From what I understand you are training like a full workout in two sessions if so then ok but if not then you are overtraining. I’m in the same boat as you but I don’t bother with cardio as I dedicate all resources to muscle growth. You should do a little cardio closer to your cut not now.Your coach should be able to tell…

Ok there has been lots of studies done on this and best time is before and after workout. This is the time your muscles will absorb as much protein as possible.

Ok if you work hard and i mean like a couple hours a day of gym then look me up and ill message you.

Hi im 48 and am doing a mass program meaning im trying to put on as much muscle on as i can. I know what your saying regarding the protein intake. I personally use creatine and protein powder. I also intake a minimum of 1g of protein per pound of body weight. Also here is a little advice, before your workout have a protein…

Just so you know your abs will not grow like the rest of your muscles. All you can do is lose the fat covering them to show them better.

Hey 48 here love to be part of this, please tell me how to join thank you

Good for you with the gains. I would be careful as you add weight you can get injured easy. Also when you finish you circuit 5x5 try doing squats with a bit more reps like 12 10 8 6 for mass or 4 X 10. I'm mass gaining so 10 8 5 3 1 for me. But hey good work and watch your posture

Also forgot to say I eat super clean, no spice boiled chicken breast boiled white fish green veggies and all that stuff so dont just try to eat calories you have to consider that too.

Hi I am kind of in the same situation but I am 48. Ok this is what is working for me, you can try it but no garantee as we are all different. I upped my intake to bulk up to around 3000 calories including protein shakes. My fat intake is pretty low and I dont even look at sugars. I eat in a five hour window so yes IF I eat…

I have a home gym and workout by myself. I dont have someone to spot me but I bench press in my squat rack as mentioned above just in case but never needed it really. I would say do them and when you notice that your having trouble take extra rest and try again or a little less weight extra reps.

I have been doing this for years and learned on my own that of course you need more protein intake specially if your workouts are very demanding.

I have been doing this for a very long time now and personally i have seen all kinds of crap! Do yourself a huge favour and get a proper program first. After that you have to decide what you really want, do you want to get big or do you want to loose weight totally up to you. We are all different so no matter what anyone…

Your abs are the only muscle that will not grow like all the others. Yes they will get stronger and with loss of belly fat youll see them more but that is a muscle you use always. Like was said above take it easy no one is after you so do what you can and tomorrow if you can do more or else dont. You have to listen to your…

Holy *kitten* you made me think so much that i weighed myself and man i gained a lot. Well i am now268.5 and i cant believe it.

No contradiction my friend i dont weigh myself everyday anymore but yes was around the 240 mark. I did tone up and increase my muscle mass so next weigh will be this sunday before i start my new program. What i said regarding the lifts are notmultiple reps but max two, just for clarification. I am fit but not a monster i…

Booty, sorry gotta say it as it is

Just a question zilla, what do you do as your job. Reason i ask is want to know how active you are.

Ah yes the good old days when weights would fly! I see you are lifting heavy zilla, and it shows my friend very good for you. Keep up the good work as you deserve it.

Wow you guys are the best

lol oh my god thats so cool

At our age it all starts to get slower, i am 48 been working out since i was in my teens and i still remember when muscle would grow week by week. Now i have to come up with different strategies to make or trick the muscle to grow. It is still possible just not as fast as when we were younger. By the looks of it you are…
