The scale honestly has never been an issue with me . When I began my eating disorder I never did it to lose weight I had a hard time eating enough(when I mean enough I mean I are like maybe 1000cals a day while doing bball and baseball) to support my sports
I like the split, man. lol

If you’re gaining weight on 3000 cals, then just stay with it until you stop. Shoot for about a pound a week right now I’d say.
Glad you’re eating the protein, but if you have an issue eating that much, replacing some of those cals from protein with carbs/fats could be beneficial. Just hitting 150-175g should be good for you. [/quote]
I second this. No point in doing more than you have to. A pound a week will be 52 pounds in a year.
In brah, you’re gonna make it
Your plan looks legit. All you have to do is execute and wait.
I had a similar beginning (140 pounds at 6’1"). I see a lot of compound lifts and good eating in here. You’ve got a great start!
I’m in. Seems interesting where it’ll go through.

I can’t remember the last time I had ice cream… I’m jealous 
Just made it public
This should be the new “do this routine instead of that dumb one” thread. A solid balanced split. How about that?!

Thanks man. Really means a lot!
Rest days suck! Should I eat the same on training days or less on rest days . Maybe cut some carbs?

I want to say “yes, yes, and yes”. At this point, I’d say you’d probably be best served eating the same every day. I would wait quite awhile (months, maybe years) before starting to manipulate things down on rest days. If anything, I would add more carbs on training days if/when you need it.

Hamstrings were dead after this. I could barely walk out of the gym…How long do you guys rest between sets? On big compound lifts (squats, deadlifts, bench) I try to rest 2 minutes. Isolation and pull-ups and rows I rest about 90 seconds to 1 minute.
You’re pretty spot on with your rest times. Just be consistent so you can tell when you make progress.

I’d say say whatever works for you man. I personally like to get my carbs as high as I can first, and then once it reaches a point of becoming a hassle to get them in, I’ll add fats and protein. Just do what you feel like. if you just add 100 calories from oreos, I think you’ll be fine. lol
