Holy shit, dude. Those guns!

I'm just starting the lifting thing. Not looking for the bodybuilder look, but definitely working toward being more muscular! Great job!

I know you talked mostly about fitness, but what's your diet like these days?



It's not too bad. I cook every Sunday. I eat roughly 6 -> 7 meals per day (every 2.5 hours).

My first and last meal are:

- 50g protein - 16g fats

The rest of my meals are:

- 50g protein - 16g fats - 50g carbs (rice)

That's about it! If you like chicken and rice (like I do), it isn't too bad. On Sundays, I take about 10 hours and 'carb up' as well, just eating lots of sugary low-fat foods: frozen yogurt, candy, etc. Helps keep you sane and balanced.

The 'bro science' of bodybuilding diets is that by eating small, frequent meals, you train your body to digest food faster and use it more effectively after training. It works well for me, so I've stuck with it.
