Best BodyBuilding Workout

[P11]

Hey guys, right now i'm on a cutting diet and I feel that my workout plan is not very well organized. As of now I do upper body workouts on mon/wed/fri and legs on tues/thurs. I need advice on which body parts I should focus on each day of the week, based on a 5 day workout.

Stats:
Age: 17
Height: 6'2
Weight: 180lbs --> Cut from 190lbs

Diet:
6:35 AM - 6 egg whites, 1 slice whole wheat bread, 2 slices turkey, 1 multivitamin, 500ml of water
9:00 AM - bowl of vector cereal, no milk
11:13 AM - footlong subway sandwich, turkey, whole wheat bread, lettuce, tomatoes, 500ml of water
2:30 PM - tuna sandwich, 500ml water
3:15 PM - Workout
4:30 PM - Whey protein isolate shake with water
6:30 PM - chicken breast, salad, multivitamin, 500ml water
8:00 PM - low fat 1% cottage cheese, 5-6 almonds

Goal: Increase muscle size, while keeping body fat low

Thanks

What are you goals? Strength...size? What's your diet like? Current stats?

First, this is in the wrong place, it should be in the training forum. Second, there is no "best bodybuilding workout". A 5 day workout in my opinion is too much. You sounds fairly new so I would do some research on the 5x5 and other more common workouts.

Like dhawk said, focusing on body parts and 5 day split < focusing on improving BIG lifts, 3-4 day splits. But to each their own, which is why I asked about your goals and current stats..

 

[P11]

diet, stats, and goals added to original post.

P.S. I've been working out for 2 years, about 1 year hard so strength is not very much a problem.

Why are you trying to increase muscle size (add muscle) on a cutting diet, it can't happen....

 

[P11]

well basically increase muscle size on the diet I indicated above while still keeping my body fat to a minimum.

 

[ZGzaZ]

Can't do it, increase in muscle needs calorie surplus, you won't get it on that diet.

If i stick with this diet am i likely to gain muscle mass? I have already noticed an increase in my bicep and forearms. What will my projected weight be in 2 months from now if i workout out heavy and hard, with this diet?

 

[dhawkins]

Why not just go on an all out bulk to get some meat on you and then trim down? Sure you might lose the infamous sixpack for awhile but who cares? EAT BIG LIFT BIG GET BIG!

i think he just wants to argue with you

I used to think JUST LIKE you dude, but trust me just eat fucking EVERYTHING you can, aslong as its healthy, lean and not dripping in fat or deep fried.

Get some All Natural Peanut Butter (Smuckers Reduced Fat All Natural is my fave) eat a bunch of spoon fulls of that, eat lots of chicken, eggs, steak all that good stuff. OATMEAL!

just keep eating and lift heavy, I've made awesome strength gains and size gains, 20 pounds since the summer and I have notice a barely worryful amount of bodyfat. My 6 pack is still here and because of the muscle mass I look even better than I did when I was scrawny to girls. I got a date with a real hottie coming up this weekend, so trust me bro!

Ok, based on these pictures... do you think I should bulk or continue cutting?

when I was you age I was a bog fane of this split:

i did it religiously for about 4 years, and got very strong.

Day 1: Chest, light delts, Tris

Day 2: Back, Bis

Day 3: Legs, light abs

Day 4: OFF

always warm up with 5 minutes of the treadmill, and if you want to get lean simply add 15-20 minutes of cardio at the end of the workout

I think I'm just giving feedback, so don't speak unless you have something useful to say.

P11, you need to bulk. Cutting is going to do you no good, you have to have a substantial amount of muscle mass to show off when cutting for it to make any sense. You're cutting into nothing. Put on a good 40lbs then cut, there's no point this early...
