My Road to Wellness

jP8b547l.jpgHello, brothers! After more than a year of training, I still consider myself a newbie, not 'cause I didn't gain anything but because I feel I still have a lot to learn in terms of technique and nutrition. Hence, I decided to create my own journal. I have been following Stronglifts 5x5 for the past 1-2 months. 

Here are my current stats:
Day 1
Squat             110 lbs x 5 x 5
BB Press         60 lbs x 5 x 5
BB Row          60 lbs x 5 x 5
DB Bicep Curl 30 lbs x 3 x 10
DB Hammer Curl 25 lbs x 3 x 10

Day 2
Squat 110 lbs x 5 x 5
BB Deadlift 100 lbs x 1 x 5
BB Military Press 30 lbs x 5 x 5
Cable Rope Triceps Pushdown 80 lbs x 3 x 10
Butterfly 40 lbs x 3 x 10

That's basically my training. I train 4x a week alternating between days 1 and 2. 
Here's my typical meal plan for the day: (evenly distributed throughout the day)
6 eggs
8 slices of wheat bread with peanut butter and jelly
6 cuts of chicken breast (Adobo cut)
6-8 cups of rice
vegetables
2-3 bananas

Since I'm still new, I don't like to take supplements. Papakiramdaman ko muna. I'm lactose-intolerant too. 
Patulong naman mga bro. I need your suggestions. Do you think I need to lift more and eat more? Thank you.

    More exercises.... that kind of routine will just make you fat or look fat. Dagdagan mo ng isolations, more freeweights, bodyweight and machines....

    But sir, my goal as of the moment is to bulk and gain some weight. What specific exercises can I add to 5x5? Thank you.
  • Ngayon ko lang nakita yung pic.. hehe sarap.. should add more carbs if your planning to bulk up..
  • Nag start din ako sa 5x5. Try adding body weight.

    Kung may big 3 ang bodybuilding ( Squat, Deadlift, BenchPress),

    May big 3 din ang body weight : which are Push ups, Pull ups, and Dips. Malaking tulong yan para ma reach ang goals mo, bulk man or cut.

    Tapos wag ka mag stay sa 5x5, change routine maybe every 3 months?

    Good luck bro!
