I know that generally weight loss and muscle mass gain don't come hand in hand, but are there any exercises, or training methods, I can use to encourage this? Right now I'm lifting for 2 days then...

Just drop your calories, metabolic rates fluctuate. Make sure you're eating clean too.

Almost certainly not true, unless your nutrition was waaaay off. Most likely psychological and conditional, give it a couple of sessions and you'll be back to where you were.

I've been out the game for 3 weeks due to illness, you've probably overtaken me by now :P. Nice job!

Scrap the bodysplit and get on ICF 5x5, get 1-1.6g of protein per kg of bodyweight.

I've been ill for almost 2 weeks now, lost weight (fat and hopefully not too much muscle) and not made any gains :(.

In. Looks good so far. When I do seated DB shoulder press I sit down with the DB's in position, I find it easier to get them up while stood up.

I know you've just started a routine but I would seriously consider switching to ICF 5x5. The frequency is so much more important as a novice.

Edit: You only have 1 hour per workout, definitely...

I've been doing a little extra chest work, but thanks! Are you on icf 5x5?

This is yesterdays workout, after 3 rest days (not good!) I finally got back to the gym.

The only way you'll harm yourself/stunt your growth is through an injury.
I have 100g of oats every morning with milk + a scoop of whey protein, great breakfast.
It doesn't really matter WHEN you...

So I've been lifting properly now for like 6/7 weeks, I've put on some size and about 15-30kg on my compound lifts. However I took bulking a bit far, and probably overestimated my metabolism eating...

Deadlift:

I was on my feet for 3 hours before going to the gym today so there was no chance of me squatting. I added in some deadlifts because I need to get the form down, it was much better today.

Bench...

What do you recommend to help that?

Squats:

DL:

Yeah I definitely want to add chins but I love my bicep curls, normally i have 150mg caffeine which is great but I think I had more like 300mg which is enough to make most people throw up! I'm...

Okay so today I decided to make a coffee as my preworkout to save money (saved me buying an energy drink) but as I had no idea what the caffeine content was I ended up having a caffeine overdose...

I really didn't feel like going to the gym today, not enough rest and would require a bit of a mission. I did a small workout using a little barbell and bench that my girlfriend's brother has. I...

Yeah my bench is going up, just not as quickly as my other lifts. I would only add chest work to B and I'll give incline flyes a go. I'm putting on weight and if you wanna see my log it's here:...
