seanl9103 0 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Hey Iv'e just started training to become a special. Iv'e also joined my local gym. Over the past few months i have slowly decreased the amount of junk food i eat, it's now hardly any. I've been looking online for diet plans, but every site seems to say the opposite to the last . I'm 11 stone and 6 foot. I do look quite skinny. If this is the daily guidelines for a adult, then roughly how much should i be taking in if i want to build muscle. MenCalories2,500 kcalProtein55 gCarbohydrate300gSugars120 gFat95 gSaturates30 gFibre24 gSalt6 g Any help, advice or good websites you could recommend would be appreciated.

melonman 4 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) Depends what you want to acheive, are you aiming to build strength or to become an 'absolute tank in a t-shirt 50cent looks anorexic' unit? Aside from diet it depends on how you train, what exercises, weight, reps etc http://www.myprotein.com/uk/pages/home -> this has got some information (if you look under the Goals tab) Ask at your local gym for advice, most of the PTs/ Fitness instructors should have some knowledge of diet & nutrition. (If they are REPS qualified think this is part of the course to become qualified PT) Get yourself onto a bodybuilding forum and have a look around there for tips & advice. Protein and steamed green veg are going to become your life Matt Edited April 7, 2011 by melonman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
