Shall I keep eating?

Shall I keep eating? artrius, anyone ?

Hi guys, I don't know really if I am doing ok with my diet.
I have based it mostly on what I've reed here.
I'm about 130 lbs not much fat visible and not much flesh either !
The idea is to gain some muscles.

I am pushing like 2800 - 3000 cal in 6-7 meals. The cals come from about
90gr fats (most of them good ones, olive, flax, cottage).
210gr carbs (rice, oats, some sugar from fruit ...)
300gr prot (chicken, fish, read meat ... Not protein powders yet).
Supplementing with 10gr of aminoacids and about 3gr Creatine w/30gr dextrose postWO.

I try not to mix carbos and fats. I also try no to do much carbos before bed.

Working out 3-4 times per week, never more than two days on a row. Cardio after training (creatine and aminos in-between).

Looks to me like a solid diet, kind of high in cal for a 130lbs guy, but the thing is that I am feeling hungry ! Not mentioning that I feel like one of those automatic perfumers for public bathrooms, though I am not rose odoured !

So far, am I doing ok?
Shall I keep eating?
Don't know !

Thanks !

I forgot to tell, I'm 27. Almost 3 months working out after 7 years off.

Cheers.

want to get big just eat more

Looks like youve done your homework.

Everything seems to be in line.

Good luck with your training.

keep eating bro, if you are doing cardio then you shouldnt get any if much fat at all

Thank you all.

Oxandrin:
Eating more is elevating the intake of all in the same proportion or shall I boost only the prots with some Whey?

What is then that sensation of empty stomach? Am I starting to eat myself or is just a sensation because of the healthy combination of food I am doing .. I mean, I can make the hunger go with some bread, butter an cheddar buy not with the same cal in cottage and low carbs Ryvita crackers ...

Please, explain me more.
Two more things, I can stand hunger with no problem. Eating is not a pleasure for me, so I don’t enjoy much more a chocolate cookie than a water cracker.
The other thing is that I am not sleeping well.

Thanks, cheers.

What do you mean, not much FLESH?????????? lol

At 130 bro, quite nit-picking over your diet........you are lean, you have room to mess up a little and overeat if it somes down to it..........this is from experience bro, I'm just now learning that it's not easy to stay 100% lean when trying to add weight.........EAT UP!

If you're still hungry while consuming 3000 cals, you prolly have a fast metobolism. You'll just have to eat more to compensate. Slowly increase portions at each meal to where you are gaining 1-2 pounds/week

Jkruz, booey, thank you for your time.

What I mean is that, for now, my bones and skin are expecting muscles !
I am a hard gainer, I guess that is to have a slow metabolism.

What do you think about the proportion fat/carb/prot?

I admire you people, BodyB is really life style that demands effort and discipline 24/7.

Cheers!

if it is size you are looking for then I would cut the cardio out altogether

Well, I don't know if I can do that ... I am damn use to sweat a bit every day .. But I'll reduce it.

Thanks for the advice.

If sweating is all your worried about then just crank up the intensity of your workouts.

Well is not sweating, It's just feeling my heart bumping.
Anyway, after reading one thread about someone's experience with Frank Zane, I am trying that 2+4 sec ... Is fu^*# killing me. At the end, I do not have strength to do cardio. And during the rest of the day I am trembling and in pain ... Kinda like it.
I don't know if I am wasting my energy in vain, what do you think?

Thanks thate ..

 

[JKurz1]

Did Zane waste his energy in vain???

 

[Luciano_]

Coming from you, all doubts are dissipated now!

I'll stick to that then, kinda start liking when you feel like your blood is running colder, same feeling when you are freaking scared to death...
Deads, squad, can't wait to hit them with this Zane routine.
I also have that sensation when hitting my abs with a twisted exercise I was taught a couple of days ago. I am going to ask the name, too complicated to explain it in English.

Cheers.

What exactly are zanes principles?

 

[Luciano_]

I think, and correct me if I am wrong, that what Zane said is that quality is much more important than quantity.
Basically what you do is to drop the weights like a lot, half of what you are lifting now and perform every rep in slow motion. 2 sec up, 4 sec down.
