    I have been training fairly consistently for about 2 years. I am 5.11 and weigh 70 kg at about 9% body fat. I recently did a bulk up from 65 to 70 kg and now looking to go on to 75. I am sticking to more or less the same diet but switching routine every month or so but not gaining anymore mass.

    Any advice or opinions would be welcome.

    More calories and protein at like 2g per lb of bodyweight. That's literally all it takes. It may require a significant increase in kcals, but assuming your program is legit and you're sleeping circa 8 hours a night, that's the only thing you need to change.

    Or you're just a pussy who half asses it in the gym :D

    I was doing a full body workouts now changed to a split.

    Mon. Back
    Tue. Chest/ tris
    rest
    Thursday. Shoulders/ bis
    Friday.Legs

    Doing 4 sets 8-12 reps one warm up 3 working sets last two to failure

    Diet on average.

    Breakfast. 4 eggs scrambled with 2 pieces of toast or a big bole of oat meal porridge with seeds dried fruit and honey and a myprotein Impact weight gainer shake.
    Snack. Banana and protein shake
    Lunch. Brown rice with chicken veg or tuna
    Snack . Nuts and weight gainer
    Dinner . Salmon rice and veg

    I am struggling to get all this down me and sometime miss out on some meals.
    But getting better.

    And hanley p%"s off but your advice is welcome:D

    Jaaays, that's all you've got? THat's not even in the top 10 daily abuse messages I get on here.

    Training looks alright, assuming you're working with mostly compound lifts.

    Diet looks ok, but it depends on portion sizes really. Getting the kcals can come down to just picking calorie dense easy to eat foods, eggs and nuts are great for that.

    You'd be well set starting a log in the fitness log section above, and creating a fitday.com account so you can see exactly how many kcals you're consuming and adjust accordingly.

    And before anyone starts asking why I'm being so nice - it's cos I'm trying to avoid studying.

    Did no body tell you studying is for nerds?:p Ye I will start a log I reckon maybe do some before and after shots as well. As for potions they are fairly big but will see what fitday.com says. Cheers
