when you get back in there it will come back. It's like riding a bike. Even if you don't do it for years you can still ride one given the chance.

what is your total calories per day? 1g protein = 4 cal 1g carb = 4 cal 1g fat = 9 cal
-
different factors to consider. Are you stimulating myofribblur or sarcoplasmic hypertrophy? Are you weighing yourself consistently? Are you anabolic for the whole day? Are you getting a surplus of calories? all in all you can't really tell by just 7 days. Muscle 'builds'. It takes time. Atleast 6 months to build…

a supplement store. or online.

agreed. cutting and bulking is dangerous to the (forgive me) uneducated. If you don't understand the composition of your body, what foods it reacts to, the necessary calorie requirements, recovery time, water intake, hormonal responses, etc. then you shouldn't be thinking about cutting or bulking. And by the way you wrote…

macros = macro-nutrients i.e. Protein, Carbohydrates, Fats are the 3 largest ones responsible for human physiological composition.

1 cup oats 1 scoop whey protein water proteins, carbs, fats, fibres doesn't require an equipment to heat it up, just a spoon to eat it. note: this is disgusting but you gotta do what you gotta do.

looks great. If you could add pull ups it would make the workout complete.

I don't like eating vegetables. vegetables make up fibre and vitamins in your diet. both can be supplemented with a multivitamin and some fibre supplement such as psyllium husk.

if you haven't worked legs for a while and really pushed the workout, then your nervous system is just in shock. If you go down the stairs and feel like you go limp then you're fine. the muscles will recover in a matter of days. the nervous system however will take a little longer.

George Farah (IFBB pro and Bodybuilding Coach) recommends taking your shake or BCAA's directly after weight lifting, the you can do your cardio. It halts the catabolic nature of strength training without sacrificing GH levels.

you're basically drinking water infused with herbs. the hunger supressive characteristics of the tea is due to cholinomimetics, which is a chemical that resides in green tea's and roasted coffee beans. the caffeine itself is not the hunger suppressant as people get confused. As long as you stay hydrated through the day,…
-
why? isn't adequate macronutrient intake for recovery and body function more important than the bodies hormonal response to hunger? just speculating.

frozen vegetables generally have the same nutritional value as fresh. if you're concerned about preservatives, the vegetables that are 'fresh' in the supermarkets are sprayed with chemicals to preserve the colour so either way who cares. frozen is more convenient.

if the concentric is difficult as well as the eccentric, to lift. then it's heavy. Doesn't matter what exercise it is.

according to research, I can't remember where I found it but its possible to build 0.5lb of pure muscle tissue per week. not including water or glycogen. However, putting on muscle is not linear and progress will slow. so I doubt he will be putting on 104lbs in a year.
-
take into account water and glycogen stores that come with greater lean muscle mass
-
currently bulking at 4000+ cal. will bring it back down to 3000 cal next week when I transition into my strength weeks from my hypertrophy. sending friend request.

good luck. do the program. experience it. find out yourself whether it is BS or not. that is the greatest form of education you can bestow upon yourself.

Triceps: Bench Press Core: Squat and Overhead press Chest and Upperback: Bench Press and Bent over Rows Inner Thigh (apart of the hamstrings): Squats

looks fine if your goal is to do an obstacle race. Try doing these back to back eg. squat 10xrep then bench 10x rep etc. then go onto the next lot of sets, squats 8x reps (with heavier weight). this will build power, speed and cardio vascular endurance, it's great for your race.

it happens to everyone on low days. some people have the discipline to endure, others allow their hormonal instinct to take over.

If post workout shakes you are looking for then look for protein powders that are fast acting. Hydrolosized Whey is very quick, if you can't get hydrolosized, whey isolate is still fast acting.

why cut out sugar? all starchy carbohydrates break down into glucose in your system anyway. Sugar is just another source of energy.
