Carbs are good, but you can build quite easily without a massive intake of carbs - just the ones you need for the workouts and that's it. Read up Tom Venuto - Burn The Fat, Feed the Muscle if you want more information on that sort of thing.

I don't disagree with you, but you're making wildly generalised statements that are quite incorrect when reading into them.
I'd rather eat a bowl of pasta with no butter than nuts just because the carb intake is so much more. When massing you need .8 g/lb of protein and 2-3g/lb of carbs to successfully gain muscle mass quickly. Of course you will gain bodyfat while doing this which is hard to avoid. That's why you mass in the winter and come february or march you start to cut that excess body fat you gained while massing leaving the muscle you gained (losing some in the process but looking better overall for summer/beach season.) However for fat the intake is much lower being only about .5g/lb because your getting enough energy from the carbs your taking in the fat can be lower. However when you are cutting carbs fat intake must increase to substitute the energy you gained from carbs. So therefore everyone's diet is different depending on their goals. I am in the massing phase of my training so therefore carbs go up and fat goes down. However come march the opposite will happen. It is impossible to build dense massive muscle while trying to cut fat because the nutrients to build muscle simply wont be there.

urdoinitwrong.

but seriously, how much energy do you think you need for an hour of weight lifting?

FYI: if you got your protein from actual foods, that would provide you with energy.  so take out some protein shakes out of your diet, take out some carbs as well, and replace it with egg whites, turkey, chicken, steak, and you're good to go.

I am eating high protein foods but you cant eat THAT much food and get the amount of protein you need. And if you want intense lift sessions you need that much energy. Carbs also help with massing muscle, Im trying to gain weight not lose it.....

Also, I've never been a fan of doing cardio before lifting my weights, and quite frankly it can have some negative effects on your training as your cardio ill already have depleted some or all of your glycogen storage, meaning your body has to start burning fat for energy, which I believe isn't advantageous for your lifts..

And if I didn't miss anything, am I correct if I say you only train Biceps/Chest and Shoulders?
Yeah, pretty much all that. I'm trying to lose weight and tone up at the same time. I've working out the chest, shoulders and arms, and the following day doing a few ab exercises that at the moment I'm struggling to complete some of the more difficult ones. I know I should do squats etc but I really can't be bothered right now and they're not on my list of goals. Part of the psychology is to do stuff I want to see results for so I keep motivated and once the routine of working out 6 days a week becomes second nature (which I'm still loving and am about to go downstairs for a session as I just got home from work).

I didn't think it was a lot of cardio though. How much cardio should I be doing? And is it really that bad to do it before weights? Should I do it afterwards?

I did see a personal trainer who started me on a course at the gym about 5 years ago, he got me to do 5 mins cardio then a full body workout, every other day was 1/2 hour of cardio and some core exercises.

The yoghurt is low fat greek, plain as you can get.

My workout currently consists of this:

Cardio: exercise bike, 8 tension settings, start on tension 4. Go moderately for 45 seconds, then switch it up to 6 and go hard for 30 seconds. Then moderately for 45 seconds, on tension 4 again. I consider this one rep. On my "A" days (mon/wed/fri) I'll do 3 reps, the workout, then another 3 reps. On my "B" days (tues/thurs/sat) I'll do 10 straight reps of cardio, followed by the ab exercises above (I can't get through them all lol, which is a good thing I guess).

Workout: 3 sets of each, dumbbells for all
Biceps curl
Flat chest press
Standing lateral lift
Flat chest flies
Reverse curls
Reverse shoulder flies
Shoulder press
Hmm I prefer to isolate muscle groups on days I'd 3 exercises for each muscle etc.

Chest I do Flat bench, incline and then dumbbell flies I find I don't have enough energy to push all muscles in my body to failure. You have quite a lot different goals I'm not too sure how to advise you really.

Oh and another thing if you want to put on muscle I would say stay off the cardio you're just killing your energy reserves off for the lifting. I'm sure you've heard all this before but if you are just starting try and keep it to compound exercises. You seem to be missing some tricep exercises. I recommend close grip bench press, skullcrushers (you can do french dumbbell presses).

Even though I acknowledge your goals, I strongly suggest you workout your whole body evenly. So that means working out your back and legs as well. If you don't you'll only regret it later.

About the cardio, it really depends on how intensive you do it. I can go out, do a tabata run and be done with my cardio in less than 15 minutes for that day, but it'll kill me. Regular cardio should be 30 minutes minimum tbh, as you start burning fat around that mark with 'regular' cardio.

its ok if you do cardio before you workout.  the thing is, do whatever is most important to you first.  in track, plyometrics is obviously the most important for sprinting, so that was the first thing we did after stretches, warmpups, and drills.

the question of how much cardio you should do depends on your goals.  if you just want to lose fat and gain muscle, eating healthy and lifting should be enough.  if not, you can always do a 90/10 run for around 15 minutes.  so that's jog for 90 seconds, then sprint for 10 seconds, then jog for 90 seconds, etc.  keep that up for 15 minutes.  you could always do long distance running, but if you're trying to work towards bigger and stronger muscles that really doesn't benefit you.

Such a shitty buzz, the last 2 times I've done Chest and Tricepts days, I've been really weak, despite eating properly, sleeping well, and doing good warm ups. Hopefully next week will be better, this week I swapped out close grip benches for dips, and man, do I need some work there. I also lost 4 pounds which I don't like, I was expecting to gain some.

About 2500-3000 calories per day. I should be more but meh im over it. As far as macro counting my diet and what I eat changes daily so it's real hard to put an actual number on it. My stats are 5'8 170lbs @ 14-15% BF. Im hopefully going in to get it professionally checked in the next couple of weeks to truly see where I am at. I want to get down to about 6% by June and I'll start cutting probably beginning of March.
I'm not the leanest but I definitely am not a power lifter build, more of a bodybuilder look.

Ok, so what other exercises do you recommend? I'm kinda new to all of this, though did go to the gym 5 days a week for about 6 weeks a few years ago, until I hurt my shoulder, took up smoking again and drank every night with a friend who came and stayed for a couple weeks, all within the same week. Found it hard to get back into it then.

I haven't had a smoke in over 2 years, no intention of doing it again and I really want to get some good results from all of this so I'm set on this path, more than ever

I've been doing 20 minutes one day and 12 the other, going hard for 30 seconds, then regular for 90 seconds, repeat.

I guess I'm trying to lose weight faster so I'm doing cardio too. But essentially I want to lose weight and gain muscle, but not like a bodybuilder, I just don't have the time or want to go that far. Just enough so I can look in the mirror and like what I see.

Yeah, that's a start. If I remember correctly you were working out like 6 times a week? You're best to split up the workout then, so you hit one/two muscle groups a day (so you can hit them 'harder' than if you would train all your muscles on one day) and then finish off with cardio for example (which still is your primairy goal).

By the way, what's your current height/weight/bodyfat atm? (I'm sorry if you've said it before, couldn't find it..)

At the moment I'm about 85kg and 180cm (187lbs, 5'10"). I'd make a really rough guess at maybe 18-20% bodyfat (found a simple test online but I don't have a tape measure, could be more for all I know).

I'd prefer to do the 6 days a week. Partly so I speed up my metabolism and partly to keep me in a routine. I did miss today because I was really hungover (mate's birthday last night). So today is my rest day and tomorrow can be the start of the next week.

So yeah, one I lose the bodyfat I might stop doing the cardio and just focus solely on the weights.

Would you have any suggestions on how I should be splitting up the workout?

I'm not very experienced with that much workout a week (I stick around 3-4 max) so you should ask Sonder or Zimmer how they fit it in their 6 days. Basic idea is to work a larger muscle group (back, chest, legs) combined with a smaller muscle group (shoulders, biceps, triceps) and hit them once or even twice a week, hard.

About the drinking. Bodybuilding is a lifestyle. I'm not saying you should never be drinking alcohol again, but working out is so much more than just training. It's trying to perfect your diet, training, resting period,.. every single time. I see it as a quest to improve myself on so many different levels (not only appearance, but also confidence and other small things in life. On so many occasions I have considered myself to be more successful than others, just because of bodybuilding and the lifestyle changes it's brought. And I haven't been doing it for that long either. ) Remember that you shouldn't be cutting all pleasant things out of your life, but realize that getting wasted every weekend is really going to affect your gains. It just takes a mindset. I can go out with my friends, have an awesome time and only drink 2 beers a night, or even none! It's up to you to decide, it's worth the thought

Kind of depends on what you're using it for and how much you want to spend on it. To start, try to get Whey Protein isolate or hydrolysate. Idk if you're trying to buy it locally, online, or what. If online, bodybuilding.com has a pretty good store (but I don't know if that's true for the UK). Optimum Nutrition is a good brand, some people here also reccommend Gaspari Nutrition. You should take it ASAP post-workout. If you have the money, you can take it other times throughout the day too, and there is another kind of protein (casein) that is often used for before you go to bed. But to start, whey protein within an hour of finishing your workout.

Cheers, yeah Whey protein isolate seems to be the simple starter solution for this. See if I can get something for about 10-20 quid.

http://www.myprotein.com/uk/cats/catego … in_powders

Seems to be a good store that ''mens health uk'' keep recommending. There's impact Whey Protein and then there's the Isolate version. A little research says Isolate has less fat/lactose. But other than that, it's better to save cash and go for regular Whey concentrate instead of isolate...?

It's only like 10 quid for 1Kg of Whey concentrate
