I must be smoking that same magic pixie dust. "Too good to be true" isn't always the case.

No you can't bulk and cut at the same time, not naturally anyway.

You are going to hear opinions that favor either. The key is your diet and that means eating above maintenance to build mass. Get most of these cals from good quality whole foods.

I would stick with the compound exercises to maintain muscle while you are reducing cals. Your weights might drop a little but stick to it.

So basically you are eating above maintenance for 3 weeks followed by eating below maintenance for 1 week. Sure, give it a try. I can't see any negatives doing it this way.

Use that same split but change up the exercises or the repetition ranges. It will put size on you as long as you are eating enough.

Try not to think about it when lifting. Start with overhand and when that becomes a limiting factor, switch over. No need to stress over it especially if you are just beginning.

I am currently doing 18 sets which takes me 40-45 mins. Sometimes I use up to 30 sets and still get it done in under an hour by reducing the rest periods.

If you have an urge, go for it. Just don't take any of your sets to or near failure. Some light sets to get the blood flowing will actually aid in recovery.

I was thinking the same thing. WOW 440lbs. I do not even have the right to offer you advice so I will keep my mouth shut.

I take both in liquid form. More bang for your buck. I think it is like 12-15 capsules for every one teaspoon of liquid.

It is possible you weren't getting enough rest with your 12 hour work days. As well, we tend to skip meals when we work long hours. These two combined could result in some strength loss.

That would definately put me in overtraining mode but if it is working for you, stick with it. Recovery is different for everyone.

I know you don't want a diet so I will keep it simple. Just eat more. At your height you need to put on a few pounds to show some muscle for your woman.

As well I would split up leg and back day...

Yes it is needed every day, and for some, more than once a day.

If 3000 cals per day is not putting on weight for you, increase it by about 300-500 per day and see where that takes you after 2 weeks. Boxing is intense cardio so you are burning up a lot of cals...

It all depends on what other activities you are doing throughout the day such as your job, your hobbies etc. When I am bulking, I completely eliminate cardio but that is because I burn enough cals...

I like it. Try it for a month and then switch up the exercises. Both will work as long as you change it up every so often.

Is it really that good? Everyone I talk to praises the holy Muscle Milk. I just find it too pricey compared to the other protein supplements.

I disliked the cookies and cream as well. Now I stick with either chocolate or vanilla. To me every protein shake tastes better in milk as opposed to water so as long as you aren't a few weeks away...
