Gaining Weight - 04/09/05 04:41 PM

My last weigh in was 142lbs. I going to join Lloyd Irvin's BJJ team as a competitor. I want to build muscle and go up to 185lbs for more strength and escape ability. Any advice?

I weigh about 185lbs incidentally lol!

I copied this from the strengthening forum becasue someone asked a similar question there haha!!

Let me try and give you a mass building routine. I assume you have access to a gym or have sufficient weights at home.
EXERCISES (www.bodybuilding.com will show you how to perform these BIG LIFTS)

1. Squats (releasing growth hormones)
2. Bent-over rows
3. Bench press
4. Military press
5. Chin-ups
6. Dips...
7. Deadlifts

for building mass

DIET

6-8 meals a day to bulk up.
2-4 pints of milk a day for protein and calcium.
Eat a few raw eggs for protein but be careful of the quality because of the bacterial infection salmonella!

Good luck.

ps Avoid cardio while bulking to maximize muscle building effects.
