    Morning all,

    Looking for some critique on my diet and work out. Sorry for the long post, but wanted to include everything.

    Goals are to continue to build on the muscle I’ve gained over the past 8 months but I’m in no huge rush, in that I’m happy with the size I have put on. I’ve gone from 11.5 stone to 13 stone. I still want to make gains, but I’m not desperate to pile in the calories to get big quick, then to cut back. I can take my time.

    The Diet:

    Typical Days eating:
    7:45 Breakfast shake: 1 scoop whey, pint of milk, hand full frozen mixed fruit, table spoon peanut butter, large banana, tea spoon of spirulina.
    10:45 bowel of porridge with a banana
    1:30: Large salad, peppers onions, feta cheese, nuts and a tin of tuna, or some mackerel.
    3:30: either a couple of pieces of fruit or some nuts.
    6:00 scoop whey with half pint of milk. And some oats on lifting days.
    8:00 Either a 4 egg omelette with tuna, cheese and peppers, or a fish with a couple vegetable, something along those lines.

    I don’t eat meat, hence the lack of it in the above. I’ve also knocked out bread and pasta for a few weeks as I was getting bloated on the stomach from them. (Lost a load of weight of the stomach area) But I’ll be back to having them both in my diet starting from next week.

    I also take a cod Liver oil, a garlic and a multi vitamin capsule each day.

    The work out: (I was on SL for 4 months, changed to the below 2 weeks ago)
    All start with a 5 minute row.

    Monday:
    Military press on Smyth machine: 50kg x 10 (4 sets)

    EZ Bar Curls 35kg x 10 (4 sets sets)
    Concentration Curls 12.5kgx 10 (4 sets)
    Reverse Barbell Curls 30gk x10 (4sets)

    Leg Press 110kgx10 x 4
