    First pictures since i started training. I've just started following the routine on the muscle and size tab, only the second week of it so haven't been expecting much of a change. I was previously doing 5x5 but stupid me didn't follow it properly and ended up taking a week off left, right and center.

    I'm not sure what my body fat percentage is at but i know it must be quite high, looking a little bit podgy in my eyes haha.

    I'm looking to reach about 16 stone by the end of the year, where i'm 13st 10 at the moment.

    My squat is very low compared to anything else:

    Squat- 65kg
    BP-75kg
    DL-125kg

    My diet consists of:

    10am: 6 scrambled eggs, 2 wholemeal toast, glass of semi skimmed milk. some chopped tomatoes.

    12 (midday): can of tuna, 80 g. Muller fruit corner after.

    2pm: 6 scrambled eggs. 3 wholemeal toast. / 50g sweet potato with some chicken breast.

    Gym around 4pm

    5.30pm.: 50g protein shake in 250 - 300 ml semi skimmed milk

    7pm: 6 scrambled eggs. I like them but it's just easy to make. Can of baked beans, 2 wholemeal toast.

    10pm: couple of chicken legs with no skin, oven baked.

    4 times a week to the gym, monday (upper), tuesday(lower), thursday (upper) and friday (lower). Was thinking of doing upper on saturday aswell, what do you reckon?

    I take multi-vitamins in the morning with 2 cod liver oil tablets, 5g creapure and 5g glutamine.
    Also take 5g glutamine at 3 and around 10.

    Any suggestions, ideas. My diet does vary slightly depending on my money for the week, i know i need to get more vegetables in there.

    Just lift hard and train fella and eat so you get stronger. Concentrate on getting those lifts up.

    No need to add another upper day, you dont need it.

    If you feel you need something else, do some conditioning work like hill sprints or kettlebells.

    Diet? so long as your getting adequate protein it doesnt really matter that much where the other calories come from, most people would 30% fat (plenty of EFAs) and the rest carbs, but thats up to you.

    Although 18 eggs a day might be a little excessive.... you need to put a little more into your food prep time.

    Good luck mate

    P.S

    oh yes veggies too.

    Personally I would drop the baked beans and muller fruit corner. Also I'd sub some of those eggs for something like nuts, cottage cheese etc. 18 does seem a little excessive and expensive. You def need to get some veg in there too.

    Do you know what your macros are looking like? i.e. protein, carbs, fats
